Red Christmas wedding inspiration

I just had to sneak this inspiration for a spicy red winter wedding quickly before Christmas arrived... 

Red is a great colour to bring into a festive wedding. 

Here are just a few ideas to make your Christmas wedding spectacular - personalized handmade wedding invitations (from Munroe collection in poppy red), walnut place names, cakes with cranberries and a kiss!

wedding stationery for a wedding tomorrow

I'd like to wish Emma and Bryan a special wedding day tomorrow and a very happy future together.

We produced all their stationery for them, including handmade wedding invitations, place names, table plan and table names.  They chose the Leonardo collection in honey gold.  Great for a winter wedding!

This is what they had to say .....

"A seamless service from start to finish. We are both thrilled with the wedding stationery and look forward to the finished effect on our tables for the 20th December. Thank you Elaine". Emma and Bryan

Inspiration for winter wedding

Winter is definitely with us.  

Inspiration for a winter wedding with touches of honey gold, silver grey, black and bridal white. Continue this colour scheme onto your handmade wedding invitations and reception items.

Christmas tree wedding favours

Saw these gorgeous little Christmas trees on cute boxes, even though they're a Mini Tree Advent Calendar , I thought the idea would make fantastic wedding favours. 

Labels personalized with your guest names and coordinating with your handmade wedding invitations....chocolates, cake or sweets could be added in the boxes to make an interesting favour at a festive wedding. 

Shop - Le Chien et Moi

Found almost on our doorstop - Le Chien et Moi is a very special shop.  

There is a changing collection of antique, vintage and recycled pieces,well chosen and beautifully displayed - from jewellery, handmade stationery (but no handmade wedding stationery!!!) to interior items and books. 

It is definitely worth a visit if you are in Nottingham and has one of the most beautiful websites I've ever seen. 

 

You’ll also be warmly welcomed by Pip and her adorable Basset Hound, Mulberry. 

what we've been working on recently

We been working on some rather sophisticated stationery for a wedding this month and thought they deserved a mention....

(above) These are a sneak preview of them in the early stages before all the tables are added to the table plan and finished, place names are sorted into individual tables and bagged together, order of service need bows to be tied and table names finished off.

 (above) These are the table names finished... very elegant you must admit?

We worked with our client on her handmade wedding invitations, information and reply cards prior to her reception items. She chose the Kidman collection in black.  I will post some more of her stationery soon.

Kate and William are having their first child

Buckingham Palace announced today that Kate Middleton and Prince William are expecting their first child. No details on when the baby will be born, just that it's early days.


"The Queen, The Duke of Edinburgh, The Prince of Wales, The Duchess of Cornwall and Prince Harry and members of both families are delighted with the news."
