I love stationery. If I had the time and equipment, I would set up my own stationery business for sure. I made all my own wedding stationery, from the Save the Dates, to the Wedding Invites, to the Table Plan and Menus. I adored the creative process, and working with a talented designer friend of mine in creating the imagery, but it was HARD WORK! … and so I have so much inspiration for professional stationers who come up with the most beautiful designs, like, Emily&Jo for instance.
Beautiful bespoke wedding stationery…

Emily Waller and Jo Chapman established their fabulous stationery business, Emily&Jo in the Spring of 2007. Having met each other when they were both pregnant, it didn't take long for both ladies to realise that their creative abilities complimented one anothers, and before long, they had packed in their full-time jobs and started a line in bespoke wedding stationery.
Working with a bank of trusted printers, Emily&Jo utilise a range of techniques including letterpress, blocking, foiling and embossing to produce a unique and quality end product.Every design within their beautiful and unique portfolio is exquisitely printed on a carefully considered paper stock akin to the specific collection to which it belongs.
Each piece of stationery is finished with careful attention to detail. The colour ways of our invitations can be adapted to suit the individual theme of your wedding and the result is gorgeous, ageless stationery that appeals to the most style conscious.
I love that Emily&Jo are 'keen to keep green', and thus all papers used to creat their products are FSC accredited, employ no bleaching or added OBA's so in layman's terms, they are good for the environment and make trees smile! All our invitations are supplied with plain superior quality envelopes.
More recently, Emily&Jo have been collaborating with different Illustrators and graphic designers to produce a range with a different look and feel. They have also recently announced that Swedish illustrator Karin Åkesson, who works with Topshop and Habitat, is working with them, check out Karin's gorgeous design below…
Prices range from £3.95 – £4.65 per invitation card and envelope – which represents excellent value for elegant designer stationery. The Emily&Jo website also boasts a number of fabulous customer testimonials and press features – proving Emily&Jo to most be a trusted and reliable brand – but then, their gorgeous designs say it all for me.
