For Victoria & Andy I did a day invite - with an insert, an evening invite postcard, an order of service, place names and a table plan.
‘ I am getting married on 9th of August next year. I’ve been looking at Wedding stationery for ages and can’t find anything I like at all. That is until yesterday… I was in a shop and spotted some of your greetings cards. They really appeal to me as they’re both funky and original.Anything I’ve seen up until now has been very traditional and bland. I would love if I could get my wedding stationery through you but I was wondering do you do the printing inside and can you offer orders of service that match in some way? ‘ Victoria, 12/10/2007
This is the front of the day invite (it’s a folded card):

And this is the back:

‘ The insert looks great! Design is perfect! ‘ Victoria, 15/11/2007
This is their evening invite postcard - front and back:
‘ I just wanted to let you know that my invites went out on Saturday and I’ve been so overwhelmed by compliments about them!! Everyone absolutely loved them and thought they were really unusual! They couldn’t believe we’d sorted it all over email!! Thank you so much I’m so so delighted with how they turned out!’ Victoria, 12/06/2008
And this is the front cover of their 8 page Order of Service.

And their table plan. This was A1 size (594 x 841mm) and had 18 cut outs for them to add in print outs of the finalised guests names for each table:

Thanks again for everything, your work has been just brilliant! ‘ Victoria, 06/08/2008
They also had thank you postcards:

For Cameron & Leticia I did 2 versions of their invite: one in English and one in Portugese.
‘My fiancee and I have seen your lovely cards online and would like to enquire as to whether we are able to personalise (to a certain degree) the design for a wedding invitation. We love the two birds facing each other and the waves you have in your beach life section but may want to include other elements to reflect the location of our wedding etc. Please can you let us know if this is possible. ‘ Cameron and Leticia, 29/07/2008
This is the English outside and inside - -
‘ Cant believe we finished! I am very content with the invitations. My Mum just looked at them too and also liked very much - Pefect! Well done! ‘ Leticia 02/10/2008

Sian & Iestyn went for the Smiling widely design as well - although they had English and Welsh translations on both their day invite and their evening invite postcard.
‘The smiling widely card is ace!’ Sian, 11/07/2008
‘ Hi Alice the invites are great. We are very happy with them.’ Sian, 04/09/2008
I also did menus, Orders of service and thank yous for them.
‘Our vicar saw the proof to check the order of service for us and he loved the graphics!’ Sian, 30/10/2008
‘We’ve got the OOS thank yous and menus. They are all so great! We thought the invites were fantastic and so different to everything else that we’d seen.Thank you so much for being so easy to talk to and so quick to reply / sort things. Its been great working with you! We will defo be in touch if we have a christening or party for the wedding next year for sure!! Kindest regards! Sian’ 05/11/2008

‘I was wondering whether you would be available to work with us on some invites to our very un-traditional and low key civil marriage ceremony and party which we’re holding next May 2009? Our venue for this is an art gallery/restaurant in south east London near the river - no tradition involved at any stage other than an old converted warehouse where we’ve having our celebration with approx 70 friends and family. I really like your website and the testamonials are impressive.’ Deborah, Mon 27/10/2008
For Deborah & Jonathan, I produced a completely new designs based on their brief.
‘We’re not looking for an invite that screams ‘wedding’ - it’s more of a relaxed, laid-back, urban party invite where there will be a wide range of people, from older and more conservative parents, to younger and funky friends and lots of younger kids. We live in an apartment in a converted jam factory, we’re planning to walk up the road together to the wedding and party, assuming my shoes are just about up to it, and we are long term Londoners. We’ll have a civil ceremony mid/late afternoon, then drinks, then food, then chillout time with music from i-pod - that sort of thing. We’d like to it be contemporary and warm whilst getting across the London feel which is very vibrant. Because we’re central Londoners through and through, one idea I had was about an illustration of the London skyline with outlines of the buildings that we know, like St Pauls, Houses of Parliament (where we’ve both worked in and around over the years), Tate Modern, Gerkin - that sort of thing. As well as our Jam Factory home!’ Deborah, 28/10/2008
‘Hi, thanks for this, amazed to see you’d what you’ve done!’
