Your wedding invitation isn’t just about the place, time and date; it is your first official declaration to all your friends and family that they are your very specially chosen guests. All couples, especially us girls, have an idea of how we would like our day to be. We choose our outfits, colour scheme, flowers, photographers etc. Your invitation is your guest’s first glimpse into your chosen style of wedding. Is it formal, fun, sophisticated or traditional…? We think there are three main points to consider when choosing your stationery. Design, colour scheme and of course, cost! When it comes to design and colour, there are many current trends out there to choose from. At Inspired by Lisa we would always advise you to go with what you both like and feel comfortable with and not what the magazines say you should be choosing! Choose a design and colour that can be carried through your day and coordinate with your bridesmaids, flowers, table decorations etc. Invitations come in all shapes and sizes these days and can include as much information as you wish. Our favourites are the pocketfold styles which have a neat internal pocket perfect for your guests reply card. You can also add wedding gift list information, directions to your venue and hotel accommodation. Also available are wallet invitations which have a sophisticated, contemporary look and the more traditional stand up invitations which are perfect for your guest to display. Well of course you need invitations, but what other wedding stationery do you need? If you are having a summer wedding, getting married abroad or perhaps you are having a Christmas wedding, then save the date cards will ensure your guests don’t miss out on your wedding. You may also require orders of service (we would suggest one per couple), place names (this could be incorporated into your favours), menus, table plan and even thank you cards, to name but a few. Then it comes to the scary bit…the bill! At Inspired by Lisa we fully appreciate that weddings can cost a small fortune. Having been there myself, I know it can be difficult choosing between that string quartet or button holes for your guests! When it comes to your stationery, we try our very best to accommodate your budget without compromising on design and quality. As each of our designs are handmade, they can be easily adapted to meet all your requirements, including cost. Why not contact us for a very informal chat. We would love to help!

‘Wedding stationery is a critical element of a wedding so put it into the hands of a trusted professional - it’ll turn out to be a wise investment and you’ll have so much more time to think about stuff that really needs your input.’ Kate Roberts - Picture Palace
Picture Palace has become a bit of an institution within the wedding industry and is it any wonder? Over the last 15 years, they’ve built up a filing cabinet full of fan mail from couples wishing they had an excuse to do it all over again! So, what’s the secret... Great design teamed with superb materials make a great marriage. You only have to check out one of their beautiful wedding invitations to see they don’t sacrifice anything to maintain real quality. Under the eaves of a converted grain store overlooking the beautiful Yorkshire Dales National Park you will find a talented team, drenched in experience, carefully putting together every order. Picture Palace isn’t just about creating stationery that looks great in the catalogue it has to look just as good when it arrives through the letterbox and that is something Kate and her team pull out all the stops to make happen. And of course there’s that essential ingredient ‘customer service’ which is handed out in copious quantities throughout the process.

'Think about the sort of clothes you love, your ideal décor, and the place where you are getting married. Pick a stationery design you love and can be proud to send to friends and family, it doesn’t have to cost the earth! My one other general piece of advice is to keep in your mind that your wedding is for you and not for anyone else – the best bit of advice my Mum ever gave me!’ Cards by Sophie was set up in 2009 by Sophie after struggling to find modern stationery at a reasonable price for her own wedding. ‘When I was choosing my stationery, I found it so difficult to find anything I felt was right for me. I wanted to be able to personalise it, change the colours and wording. So I have created a collection that is simple, stylish, contemporary and affordable... just what you're looking for.’ We offer modern designs in two ranges, including handmade embellished and printed designs. There are no set rules, the stationery is available in a range of sizes and colour ways, and you can create your own wording throughout. Cards by Sophie also offers a bespoke design service, you may wish to select this if you have something particular in mind that you’d like us to design for you. Our website allows clients to order online, making it much easier and quicker to get your perfect stationery. We are very proud that all of our wedding stationery is unique to us, so you won’t find it anywhere else!

Our supplier’s top tip:
'Don’t be afraid to use bold colours. Strong colours in your wedding theme can be reflected easily in your wedding cake.’ Sarah Jones - Cake Designer and Owner
The Big Wedding Cake Company is based in Golborne, Warrington. They specialise in individually designed, bespoke wedding cakes. Couples can visit the shop to discuss design ideas and with the help of a specialist cake designer, the Big Wedding Cake Company will create the perfect cake to complement their wedding theme. A large selection of cakes are on display in the shop, ranging from traditional and classical to contemporary and elegant. As cake designer Sarah Jones explains, ‘Wedding trends are strongly influenced by the fashion catwalks. A lot of designers are working with bright clashing colours. Brides shouldn’t be afraid to go bold with the colours on their wedding cake. Strong bridesmaid colours look fantastic and this theme can be reflected in the cake. For brides that prefer more traditional styles or the ‘vintage’ look, intricate lace work and fresh flowers are the perfect combination.’ Whether it’s cupcakes, a stacked cake or mini individual cakes, brides and grooms can choose a wedding cake style to reflect their special day perfectly. The Big Wedding Cake Company offer a variety of cake flavours as Sarah explains, ‘Most couples choose a mixture of flavours for their wedding, each tier can be a different flavour if they wish. Our most popular flavours are vanilla sponge, rich chocolate, lemon drizzle and fruit cake.’ The Big Wedding Cake Company also offer UK wide delivery.

Our supplier’s top tip:
'A wedding cake requires many considerations to be taken into account. Likes, dislikes, size, type, flavour, decoration and allergies are the main considerations and a good designer will talk you through all these and more.’ Laura - Designer
There are so many cake designs available, it can be quite daunting to try and select the right one for you. Maybe you’ve seen a little bit of this one, you like a lot of that one and your colour scheme may be as individual as you. Our designers are experienced in being able to take your ideas and transform them into a design that will enhance your celebration and make it one of the lasting memories you take away with you. Contemporary, traditional or themed, we are confident that the combination of design and delicious taste and our commitment to customer satisfaction is what makes us stand out. As our customer’s cake designs have become more elaborate, fancy and fun, the challenge this brings us ensures we get exceptional end results. Traditional cakes also have their own challenges, especially when clients bring their own twist or tweak to the design! Each cake, whatever the creation or occasion is lovingly made and decorated to the highest standard and will complement the celebration. You will probably find there’s none left to take home so you might want to put a piece by for later!
