Invitations

Invitations set the tone and mood for your wedding, whether it's a traditional occasion or a more informal celebration.

I offer a full range of services from writing your guest names on invitations and envelopes to a fully bespoke design service for printed invitations. I also offer an exclusive service where each guest's invitation is handwritten and illuminated using the finest quality parchments and papers with beautifully lustrous inks, paints and gold leaf.

Generally I use four different scripts for invitations which lend themselves to different styles of invitations:

Copperplate script is cursive and elegant and requires minimal decoration as the letter forms are works of art in themselves.

Italic Script is free flowing and traditional and is suitable for the addition of simple borders and decoration.

Gothic Script is a formal hand and benefits from bold, bright colours on invitations and is suited to weddings in castles and other early historic buildings.

Celtic Script is also a formal hand and there is a wealth of symbolic Celtic artwork and borders that can be added to the invitation to produce stunning effects.
