The stationery brief was to create a visual prequel for the wedding - the main focus, aside from the bride herself, were vintage roses (Memory Lane & Amnesia). The bride wanted her invites to reflect the soft, feminine and romantic values of her Vintage Summer wedding.

It is always a tricky situation when a designer is sending out their own invite - you may think it is easy to design a christening invite for the ones own, but let me reassure it is ten times more difficult.  You have lots of ideas, but must choose just one! Ted’s christening reverted to the first rule of designing - keep it simple! The navy and lime green colour scheme give the invite a boyish twist and the wording was keep purposefully uncomplicated.

Our most recent stationery design was based on the idea of a scroll invite sent out in a beautiful bijoux Kraft canister with a matching label. The scroll idea was based on a story of Graham & Sam, an original and interesting concept which captivated the personality of the Bride & Groom perfectly. The brief comprised of a the story and the flower in the picture (to be used as a reference for colour!). The spring green and peachy pink stationery produced a delicate aesthetic.

We like contemporary stationery design, but we also like traditional too! A traditional Country wedding can be beautiful, sophisticated and stylish.

The theme used for our most recent was based on a cream and racing green colour palette - very simple and sophisticated! The Country wedding setting was stunning and a huge compliment to the vision of the Bride and her wedding planner (www.lisahilliardweddingplanning.co.uk).

A recent commission for an Autumnal wedding in October resulted in the most stunning foil block invite. The falling leaves theme was used to great effect within the folder and insert invite. The burnt orange colour was a stunning combination with the cream stock and the simple illustration another triumph of less is more!

We were commissioned by the lovely Polly at Brides magazine to create labels for confetti cones - the feature is based on Eco weddings - an up and coming area of interest….. the paper is eco-friendly and the tags were bijoux , which saves on paper!

The simple truth of the GREEN Typeheart invite is the beauty of the type setting….. the personal detail encompassed in the design makes it an original, specifically designed for the client. The Kraft envelope provides another simple truth - it compliments the clean invite design. Full Stop.

It was exciting to meet a young couple who were local, found me on the internet and were willing to explore the possibilities! The young woman bought me a groovy gift wrap which was the inspiration for her wedding - she knew little about what she wanted specifically, but knew she wanted a funky colour palette. The Lovetype2 design was selected and the couple were looking to combine lilac with cranberry  - the result was interesting, experimental and beautiful at the same time.

Many of the stationery designs can be adapted for various purposes. The Bright Lights stationery, as featured previously looks wonderful as funky labels for a Hen pressie complete with amazing Gustav Klimt style wrapping paper from Past Times.

It is great to feature in the March edition of the Wedding supplement. We have featured in both the Vintage(paper love heart garland) & Cool Britannia  (Strawberry Fayre invite and name tag) sections. It is really exciting to see your name in print! We absolutely love their ideas and stylised themes and must concur Wedding publication really is a fantastic read, a pioneer of trends and advocate of helpful advice.
