GETTING STARTED

It’s a simple, stress-free process. You browse my collections, choose anything from a design you love or share your own inspiration with me for a custom design, then get in touch via the enquiry form. Once I understand what you need, I’ll confirm availability and send you a quote. From there, we agree the wording, colours, and layout, I prepare digital proofs for your approval, and once you’re happy everything goes to print. I handle everything remotely, so the whole process happens from the comfort of your home.

My pre designed collections are there as a starting point, but you can move things around, change text colours, wording, add photos etc. And if you don’t see something you like, you are welcome to send me ideas you have from Pinterest or other inspiration. I can’t copy anyone elses work, but we can get ideas formulated. Either way there is a design fee quoted on each event page.

Yes, absolutely. I work entirely remotely, so it doesn’t matter where in the UK you are. Everything is handled by email- enquiries, proofs, approvals, and updates and your finished stationery is posted directly to you.

Yes, minimum spends apply to help ensure each order is designed and printed to the standard you deserve. Each event has its own minimum spend or minimum order quantity so please check the overview page for the appropriate event.

Yes, My four main categories are weddings, funerals, baby showers and anniversaries, but I can also design for Bridal Shower, Engagement, Gender Reveal and Retirement Parties. I don’t cater for any Political, Religious Events or Birthdays.

DESIGNS & PERSONALISATION

Quite a lot. My designs are a starting point, not a limitation. I can adjust the wording to exactly what you want, change the colour palette to match your theme, and tweak the layout where needed. What stays consistent is the core design style – the typography, the composition, the overall aesthetic – which is usually the thing that drew you to it in the first place.

Always. I would never send anything to print without your sign off first. Once I’ve prepared your design, I’ll send you a digital proof to review. Please check every detail carefully – names, dates, spellings, and any specific wording —-because once approved, this is what goes to print.

Yes, in many cases. I do ask that any photos you provide are high-resolution digital files. Scanned originals work well, but photographed prints (photos of photos) tend not to reproduce cleanly. I include minor editing and upscaling with your consent, though I’ll always flag it if an image isn’t quite sharp enough to print well, so we can find the best solution together.

PRICING & PAYMENT

There’s a design fee per suite, which covers the customisation of your chosen design or creation of a custom design, and all your proofs. Individual items are then priced per piece, with quantity-based tiers so larger orders work out at better value. You’ll find full pricing on each event page, and I’m always happy to help you work out what a full order is likely to cost before you commit to anything.

Yes. If you’d prefer to receive print-ready digital files to print yourself, or to send electronically, I offer digital-only suites at three price tiers depending on what you need. It’s a great option if you’re managing costs, printing locally, or simply prefer the flexibility of a digital file.

I currently accept Paypal (any credit or debit card) or Bank Transfer. Details will be sent when we begin your order. A 30% retainer fee is taken before I begin your personalised design to secure your spot. The remaining 70% is due before files go to print. When you printing is completed there will just be the final Postage costs to pay. If you have any questions about this, just ask when you get in touch.

Dispatch times vary depending on the size and complexity of your order, but I’ll always aim to get your stationery to you in plenty of time for your event. The best way to make sure everything runs smoothly is to get in touch early, return your wording and any other information promptly, and ensure payments are made on time. Delays at any of these stages can affect the timeline. If you have a firm date you’re working towards, just let me know upfront and I’ll make sure we plan around it.

WEDDINGS

Luxury bespoke wedding stationery is a wonderful thing, but it’s not what I do, and I want to be upfront about that. If you’re looking for hand-painted watercolours, letterpress printing, laser cutting, or fully bespoke design from scratch with a luxury price tag to match, there are brilliant specialists out there who can help. What I offer sits in a different space entirely. Beautiful, personalised stationery without the massive bill. If you’d love something that looks lovely and feels special without spending thousands, you’re in exactly the right place.

I offer a wide range of wedding stationery including save the dates, invitations, RSVP cards, order of service booklets, order of the day cards, menus, place cards, table signs, favour tags, and bookmarks. If you’re looking for something specific that isn’t listed, just ask. I can often accommodate requests that aren’t on the main price list. Click Here for some ideas of what you can order.

As a guide, save the dates are typically ordered and sent 9–12 months before the wedding. Invitations are usually sent 4–6 months before the big day, and on-the-day stationery (place cards, menus, order of service, and signage) around 6–8 weeks before. I’d recommend getting in touch as soon as you have a date and have begun thinking about your style – that way there’s no last-minute rush

Yes, and this is one of the things people love most about working with me. Whether you want everything from save the dates right through to table signs and favour tags, I’ll make sure your stationery carries a consistent, cohesive look throughout the day.

Yes, and please don’t worry if you’re not sure where to start with this, because most people aren’t. I can guide you through the wording for every item in your suite, from save the dates right through to on-the-day stationery. There are traditional formats I can share as a starting point, or if you’d prefer something more relaxed and informal, we can work on that together too. Just let me know your style and I’ll help you find the right words.

Funerals & Memorials

I offer Funeral announcements, order of service, welcome signs, bookmarks, place cards, table signs, and memory cards. For some ideas Click Here. Everything is handled with care and sensitivity, and I understand that timelines are often tighter for these orders. Please get in touch as soon as you can and I’ll do everything I can to accommodate you.

With as much care and gentleness as I possibly can. I know that organising a funeral is exhausting and emotional, and the last thing you need is a complicated process. I’ll keep communication simple and clear, work as quickly as I’m able to, and make sure the whole experience feels as smooth as possible for you and your family. You don’t need to have everything figured out before you get in touch. Just reach out and we’ll take it one step at a time.

Yes, absolutely, this is something most families choose to do. Please send me high-resolution scans rather than a photo of a printed photograph, as these tend to reproduce much more clearly. I’ll include minor retouching or upscaling with your permission and will always let you know if there’s anything that might affect the print quality before we proceed.

Absolutely, and please don’t feel you need to have it all figured out before you come to me. I can share examples and gentle guidance for order of service wording, cover text, and any personal tributes you’d like to include. If you have specific poems, readings, or words already in mind, I’ll work with those, or if you’re starting from scratch and feeling overwhelmed, I’ll help you work through it at whatever pace feels right. There’s no pressure and no rush.

VINYL SIGNAGE

Vinyl decals are adhesive designs cut from vinyl, perfect for personalising glasses, bottles, vases, mirrors, table surfaces, and other smooth items for your event. They’re a popular choice for wedding receptions, baby shower decorations, and anniversary celebrations, and they create a really polished, professional finish.

Vinyl decals work best on clean, smooth, non-porous surfaces — glass, mirrors, ceramic, acrylic, and some plastics. They’re not suitable for fabric, rough textures, or surfaces that will be submerged in water. If you’re unsure whether something will work, just ask and I can advise before you order.

This depends on the vinyl type. I offer both permanent and removable options — just let me know what you need when you enquire and I’ll make sure you get the right one for your purpose.
