Seeing spots before our very eyes... perhaps a trip to the optician is what's needed?

Just had an email from a lovely customer asking about the bunting invitation that they'd seen in the October issue of Wedding Ideas... DOH! Totally missed that one! Our eagle eyes have obviously let us down — thank goodness for our keen witted customers!

October 2012 Wedding Ideas magazine  —Mooks Bunting Invitation

We produced the pink polkadot bunting wedding invitation a couple of years ago, but since then have had a fair few requests for bunting wedding stationery — and also 'Great British' wedding stationery themes — so this year, we combined the two and created a Union Jack version. 

Great British Wedding Stationery — Order of Service

Great British Wedding Stationery — Seating Plan

Great British Wedding Stationery —Table-Name Card

All items of stationery — as with all of our designs — are available in this range, but we've included a few bits here for you to see. If it takes your fancy, please get in touch! :)

YIPPEE! wedding ideas awards 2010!

The bridal industry is gearing up for the annual Wedding Ideas awards, which are to be announced this Friday!

Although Mooks Design was up for the 'Best Wedding Stationery' award, we're small fry compared to some of the other nominees, so unfortunately haven't won this year...

...BUT how do we already know this, when the winners haven't actually been announced yet?? Well...

Almost as exciting as winning an award; Mooks has been asked to design the awards cards and envelopes!!!!!

The lovely girls at Wedding Ideas mag called us last week, said that they loved our designs, and asked if we would like to design this years stationery for their awards ceremony!

: )

So whilst we now know ALL of this years winners, we're obviously keeping it under our hats until they're announced on Friday ; ) but we'll post some pics of the cards and envelopes for you to see very soon.

It's always smashing to be given the opportunity to show off our talents. As we Mooks design and print all of our stationery to order, the possibilities are endless... as long as it can be printed, we can produce it (within reason of course!). We love the challenge of a bespoke order and have created lots of bespoke wedding stationery for many happy clients, over the years. We're so happy to have been asked to produce the ceremony stationery for Wedding Ideas and whilst we haven't yet managed to win an award, this has definitely made up for it!

: )

happy new year!

We've finally said goodbye to the 'noughties' and HELLO to the 'teenies'; a brand new decade and a new blog to boot!

: )

The last couple of years have been so exciting. New ventures; the launch of our website and 'Off-The-Peg ranges, so much happening and not enough time to take stock and really appreciate the fruits of our labours!

One of our resolutions for 2010 is to slow down a little and enjoy everything that we've achieved.

Talking of which, we've just launched two brand new ranges to add to the others and judging by all of the sample requests, it looks like they're going to be pretty popular!

Rambling Rose is the sister range to our very own Dotty Vintage!

As a 50's revival is in full swing — with designers such as Cath Kidston and Laura Ashley at the forefront of modern 'vintage-style' design — Mooks Design have been totally swept away on a nostalgic, vintage trip and created a romantic, shabby chic wedding stationery range of our own... with a modern twist to the colour palette!

Inspired by original 1950's prints and pattern; Rambling Rose is 50's in style, but married with contemporary colourways and is perfect for a vintage themed wedding. It comes in 6 glorious colours... Gold, Grape, Navy, Pink, Bottle Green and Silver.

Our second range for the new decade is 'Butterfly'...

This wedding stationery was originally designed, as bespoke wedding stationery, for a gorgeous couple called Louise and Lee - many moons ago!

A timeless classic; we've had so many requests for butterfly wedding invitations over the last couple of years, we thought it was about time that this beautiful personalised stationery design should join our other 'Off The Peg' ranges! There are four standard colours — teal, chocolate, purple or navy — which can either be printed on matt white or ivory boards.

We'll definitely try to keep you posted of any further developments at Mooks HQ, although as the team are always pretty busy - what with one thing or another - there's a more than vague possibility that our ramblings may not be that regular!

Happy new year to you - fingers crossed it's a good-un! x
