My sister's!
Botanical, illustrated, floral, beautiful and modern!
I was very proud to be asked by Wedding Magazine to design a bespoke range for an upcoming feature they were doing. I designed the whole range which was then professionally photographed, along with a whole host of other products from talented suppliers, and used in the next issue!
Always order a few more invites than you actually need, you never know who you might have forgotten! And ALWAYS get extra envelopes too!
I love calligraphy, so hand-written place names always look super cute!
If a couple would like a bespoke design, I can offer a consultation either in person, over email or on the phone. Most couples have seen a range I have already designed and know that's the one for them - they then get in touch and I tweak the design to make it personal to them. This could include anything from changing the type of paper it's printed onto, to the colour scheme or the physical size of the invite for example. I always provide a PDF proof of designs before the go to print, so you'll always be able to double-check spellings, details and addresses etc. Once sent to print it usually takes about a week to 10 days for a couple to receive their order.
I think the save the date card and invite are really important - they set the tone for the wedding and get your guests excited about what's to come!
'The Modern Type' is extremely popular. It's a simple, type-based design in a beautifully textured font. My other best-seller is 'Rustic Florals' which is more illustrative-based.
I love letterpress printing because it looks so exquisite and beautiful. I printed my sister's save the date cards onto magnetic card so that guests could stick them straight onto the fridge when they received them!
I love the hand-drawn look and this is a style I want to develop more. I think anything hand-drawn with a slight imperfect look works great.
