I recently had the pleasure of creating the wedding stationery for my sister-in-law Sarah and now brother-in-law Giles. The wedding was perfect and we had the hottest day of the year!
Sarah was very involved with the design and collation throughout (that was the deal...). Working from our 56 Colourplan guide we were able to match the ‘mid green’ with the bridesmaid's dresses. Sarah wanted a ‘Rose’ theme to compliment the flower arrangements.
The Oxborough invitation included a tear-off RSVP with the reverse giving guests the option to request a song choice in the evening, plus a stamped and addressed envelope was included for return (this definitely encourages speedy replies). A detailed map gave guests directions to the church and reception.
All of the 90 day guests received an 'Order of Service' booklet at the church, which doubled up as a much needed fan to cool us down, slightly... (after the wedding invitation, if there was just one other stationery item I would recommend to include, it would be 'Order of Service' - the booklets look fabulous, guests often choose to take them as a keepsake and it is a beautiful way to include the guests in the service and show the hymns and prayers).
The wedding reception was held at the grounds of Sarah's parents stunning Crossgates Farmhouse, with breathtaking views of the lake. Rudds Marquees set the elegant marquee. Reception stationery included 'Tent' style Place Names, 'Table Names' (named after various wines) and 'Framed Table Plan' which included the menu.
'I Do Wedding Designs' were duly noted in the Groom's speech to gracious applause... Thank you Giles.
Finally the 'Thank You' cards have been posted.
Congratulations Sarah & Giles.

We would like to thank 'I do' for the wonderful service you provided with regards our wedding stationery.
The impact of the invitations on our guests was amazing. They were extremely impressed with the quality and unique design of the stationery and we are sure that the amount of people who asked us where we had got them from will lead to further orders for your wonderful designs!!
The service was faultless from beginning to end, the colour scheme was to our exact choice which matched the bridesmaids dresses!!
No detail was too small and made the planning of our wedding extremely enjoyable.
Thanks again and we wish you well with your future endeavours
