A BIT ABOUT F&G...

Folly and Gander is run by me, Alex, from our studio in North London. I've loved paper and stationery for as long as I can remember. Combined with a career in graphic design, wedding stationery has been a natural and really exciting progression.  

I enjoy designing almost anything; from invitations and save the dates, to all the pieces for your big day, nothing is too big or too small. I love using hand lettering and calligraphy as well as clean, modern graphic design and can help find a style to suit you.

For more information, to ask any questions or just to say hello, please get in touch via our enquiry form.

LITTLE EXTRAS

We believe that special touches can really go along way to making a stationery suite feel unique and personal to a couple. Alongside our hand-lettering and calligraphy services we also design personalised sticker, rubber stamps and wax seals for you to finish your invitations in style.

R.S.V.Ps I’ve had a few questions this year about whether a stationery suite NEEDS to include an RSVP card. Knowing how many guests you are expecting at your big day is obviously important and while there is no definitive answer on whether to include a card, here are my thoughts: Including an RSVP card is quite traditional and it highlights to your guests that you are expecting a formal reply to the invitation. They add a bit of variety to a stationery suite and are a good reminder for guests that they actively need to respond to you. The alternatives are to include an email address or link to an RSVP service, which means less printing and is a little more environmentally friendly. With this option its important to be really clear within the rest of the information you supply that you need a response by a certain date! So in all, it’s really down to preference and whatever works with the vibe of your wedding. • • • • • #rsvp #weddingstationery #weddingrsvp #responsecards #stationerydesign #bespokestationery #bespokewedding #weddinginspiration #stationeryinspiration #invitationinspiration #wedding #gettingmarried2020 #gettingmarried #persuepretty #weddingsupplier
