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!
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.
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.
It is always fantastic to have a really positive ‘Last Word’ from the Client. We received this lovely email from Emma, our Bride-to-be….

A traditional cream stationery design for created for this bespoke wedding stationery for Victoria & Rory. The design brief was to create a simple and sophisticated stationery set including invites, place names, table numbers, table plan, cocktail menus and order or service. As a designer, it is important to consider every minute detail including the final presentation of the invites. Hence, all the stationery was packaged in beautiful claret satin ribbon to ensure the customer experience is magical from the beginning right through to the end.
The Happily Ever After are always attempting to develop their existing range and whilst it may begin with a place name or an invite, it is always imperative to find creative ways to extend the stationery designs. The lace stationery has proved popular and as a result, it has been developed to incorporate table numbers and other stationery items.
