Save the Dates:
Alternative Wedding Stationery

Choosing your stationery is the first real step in bringing your wedding vision to life. Your save the dates are what set the tone for the entire wedding; they give your guests a glimpse of exactly what to expect on your big day. I think that is so important.

If I were to open an envelope and receive a black, tarot-inspired save the date with gothic elements and alternative imagery, I’d know immediately that I was attending a wedding that breaks the mould. Our designs aren't your classic, floral white stationery. They are beautiful, and they are right for certain people, but for myself and our customers, we are creating artwork and designs which speak to the alternative.

These pieces are a glimpse into weddings that might not follow classic traditions. That is what makes our customers stand out, we are creating something that defies the norm. I think that’s incredibly exciting, and I know that if I were a guest to receive one of these in the post, I would be hyped. Explore our full collection of tarot-inspired and alternative designs below to find the perfect match for your big day.


Tarot & Timeless Artistry

All of our save the dates can be printed in a huge range of colours and gradients. While it’s always exciting when a customer chooses a unique colour scheme I’ve never seen before, my personal favourite has to be the sage green card. Every piece of text is fully customizable; I create a digital mock-up for you first so you can check every detail and approve the spelling before we move to the printing stage. My designs are deeply inspired by the classic tarot card aesthetic, taking direct inspiration from iconic imagery like The Lovers and adding my own interpretation, which often features alternative elements like skeletons and spider webs.

Luxury Metallic Foiling & Velvet Finishes

To truly elevate your stationery, we offer a personal favorite of mine: luxury foiling. Available in gold, copper, rose gold, silver, and a multi-colored iridescent finish, our special foiling technique is printed onto velvet paper to beautifully capture the light. It’s a luxury element that really sets the tone and vibe for your event.

While the foiling is featured on the front to add a glamorous notch to the design, the reverse includes our high-quality standard printing. Beyond the classic tarot card shape that sparked this entire collection, we also offer unique arched and circular cards for couples looking for something a bit extra. My goal was to create an invitation that isn't just an invite, but a genuine piece of artwork.

Envelopes and the Guest Experience

Every save the date comes with standard white envelopes made from beautiful, textured paper. If you fancy something a bit more bold, we offer black envelopes for most designs as an optional add-on at checkout. We can also provide craft brown envelopes or potentially other colors upon request, just pop us a message to see what we have available!

While we don’t offer direct printing on the envelopes, I personally believe that handwriting them is an essential part of the wedding guest experience. It adds that authentic, personal touch before they’ve even seen the card inside.
