Textures and other elements of the occasion
Hessian, lace and kraft colours are currently very popular. Using these for inspiration, stationery can be personalised by combining my unique writing style on ‘Save the Date’ place cards, invitations and seating plans
Envelopes
Envelopes are handwritten, with black ink on a light coloured background and metallic inks on a darker one.
I can use your stationery or supply it.
Prices: £1 – £1.50 per envelope
Stamps
I can source distinctive picture stamps, which on a coloured envelope, handwritten by me, adds another touch of distinction.
Wax seals can even be added on the back.
Invitations
Working with you I can design a bespoke invite using the colours of your choice as well as any image, icon, or embellishment (i.e. pearls, wax seal) to make it unique to your day.
Prices: from £2.50 per invitation
Place Cards
These can be flat, or folded (tent style). They can be linked to your theme, or made as standalones for any party or celebration.
Prices: £0.90 – £1.50 per place card
Table Names and Numbers
Handwritten to match the place cards these can be used for both the table and collectively on a seating plan.
Prices: from £1.50 each
Seating plans, Save the Date, Menus and Order of Service
These can all be linked to your theme, or made standalone. Please get in touch to discuss your requirements.
Working With Your Wedding Venue
Commissioning a line drawing of:
- your venue
- a hobby or interest
- something that is special to you
The drawing can then be used on invitations, place cards, the header for the Menu or Order of Service and personalises your celebration making it unique to you.
Prices: from £50
…in this case The Lord Leycester Hospital, Warwick. A drawing is then made, to be used for stationery: invitations, place cards, Order of Service, even the seating plan and table numbers.
This time the wedding venue was Market House, Ledbury.
Working With Your Theme
Jane and Steve met through a love of biking. A group of friends were going to line their route with their bikes, and Steve was even considering wearing his ‘leathers’ as his wedding suit!
A love of Harry Potter and theming a wedding with such things as tables being named after JK Rowling’s characters, allows one’s imagination to run wild with other possibilities.
The beautiful orchids in the third example were painted by my sister and used on invites and place cards for her Ruby Wedding Anniversary.
Prices: from £50
