Sustainability

Our Approach

Beautiful stationery, lighter footprint

Wedding stationery is made to be treasured, so I think carefully about how it's made. As a small, one-person studio on the Mornington Peninsula, I make choices every day to reduce waste, from the paper I print on to the way your order arrives at your door.

Responsible paper

Paper with a better story

FSC certified card stocks are available for your stationery, meaning the paper comes from responsibly managed forests that are replanted and protected.

For something truly special, I also offer tree-free cotton paper. It's soft, luxurious and made from cotton fibres rather than wood pulp. Explore the options in the card stock guide.

Made locally

Printed close to home, only what you need

Your stationery is printed locally in Melbourne, so it doesn't travel across the world to reach you.

I print to your exact quantities rather than in bulk, and every order is checked on a digital proof before it goes to print. Getting it right the first time means fewer reprints and far less wasted paper.

Thoughtful packaging

Packed with care, shipped carbon neutral

Orders are sent in recycled or compostable mailers, and I reuse boxes and fillers wherever I can, so nothing goes to landfill that doesn't need to.

Every order is also shipped carbon neutral, with the emissions from delivery offset, whether your stationery is heading across town or across the country. It still arrives safe, flat and beautifully presented.

Less waste

Digital and hire options

Not everything needs to be printed. Digital invitations and digital save the dates are sent straight to your guests, with zero paper and no postage.

For the day itself, my hire range of acrylic table numbers, a wishing well, stands and easels is used again and again, wedding after wedding.

Giving back

Supporting WWF-Australia

Beautiful paper starts with healthy forests, so I've made a donation to WWF-Australia to support their work protecting Australia's forests, wildlife and wild places.
