Enjoy it! Have fun with it! It is your day, so make it about you and what you both like instead of what you think your guests might expect.

Miniature, handmade, coloured wool pom-poms instead of confetti to suit the couples fun personalities. They were later re-used as bunting for their children's bedrooms.

What is the most important piece of stationery for a wedding and why?
The invitation of course! This is the first introduction your guests have to your special day, the invitation sets the tone. It is also the one piece of stationery that family and friends will treasure for years to come, alongside your photographs.
What is your best seller?
Flat sheet invitations; printed onto a high quality stock they are simple but elegant and can be layered. Often they are finished with silk ribbon or a belly band to keep them together.
How do you add romance to any wedding stationery you do?
Romance is all in the wording, I encourage you to add your personalities into your wording, perhaps a special song lyric or line from a poem. The more personal your stationery the better.
