What is your most memorable wedding?
My best friends wedding, which was also one of my first. Her Grandma had passed a few years ago, so I felt very privileged in custom designing her wedding stationery to include her Grandmas favourite flowers- Hydrangeas. As it was a traditional garden wedding we went for soft watercolour tones of dusty blue and coral pink, set against shades of green foliage.

What about your business are you most proud of?
Stationery is such a big part of a Wedding- it sets the tone in the lead-up to the event and forms much of the decoration on the Big Day itself. I'm proud to offer a stress-free service to this area of preparation, where couples can use and enjoy my designs rather than see this part of their planning as just a formality.
What is your No. 1 wedding planning tip for couples?
'Your Day, Your Way'
What is your favourite personal touch you have seen at a wedding?
I went to a Wedding in August 2021, the Grooms father, who was an Artist, had passed a number of years ago, as a way of having him there the couple got married in front of three of his large canvas paintings. They provided the most beautiful, sentimental backdrop for them to say I Do.
Describe your typical process with a couple.
On enquiring, I send out a PDF containing my full collection of ready-to-go, editable Stationery Design packs so the first step is for the couple to choose a pack that they feel best represents the vibe of their Special Day.
From there, we work together to make the required tweaks, ensuring they’re completed in time to meet those all-important deadlines!
With Wedding planning being quite hectic, its important to me to give the couple time to look over the initial artwork and work together on any amendments if required. Once the couple has signed off the artwork I can assist with recommending paper and printing options!
What is the most important piece of stationery for a wedding and why?
Both the Invitation and Details cards!
These are the pieces of stationery that guests look at the most in the lead-up to the Big Day as they research the location and transport etc, and in my experience designing for couples, they act as a springboard in setting the tone and vibe for the remaining designs.
What is your best seller?
The 'Eugene' 4 template set. Highly detailed, hand-illustrated botanicals in bright colours set against a white background, this design is both classic and contemporary.
How do you add romance to any wedding stationery you do?
The couple often adds the romantic touch to my stationery designs!
They may choose a pack because the flowers have a special meaning to them, for example, I had one couple choose the 'Kyoto' pack as the Peonies and blossoms reminded them of their engagement in japan, and another couple chose the 'Serena' pack as it reminded the bride-to-be of the wildflowers in her parents garden.
