"We were looking for something special for our wedding invitations cards, well we found it! Lucy made an amazing work! Not only there is a large choice of beautiful cards, but we could also customize them.

We received the cards in no time and everything was perfect.
Again, thank you very much Lucy for your great work !

Merci beaucoup Lucy! "

"Lucy was really helpful and insightful. My design ideas were quite unusual and complicated, involving all my guests names and apertures and things - and completely bespoke. She came up with some brilliant solutions, which she then executed beautifully. She completely understood what I wanted, even when I wasn't sure!! She even travelled all the way to London to hand deliver to ensure I had everything last minute!! I can't recommend her enough. THANK YOU!!! "

"I found Lady Bug Designs through an internet search, and as always with such things, there is a level of risk with just picking someone off the internet. I was rather picky as I wanted something personal and handmade, but having attempted it myself, it just didn't work.

Lucy and her beautiful designs exceeded all my expectations and her service was just fantastic. The invitations and name tags are so much better than I could have imagined. I cannot recommend her enough to entrust with such an integral part of your wedding.

I had them made here for a wedding in Australia because I loved her work so much!

Thanks Lucy. "

"Thank you to Lucy for some absolutely fabulous invitations!!! We had an unusual request and she couldn't do enough to help, I highly recommend her to anyone looking for invitations, especially for something a little different and of a high quality. Everyone has complimented us on them!!! "


Kate & Nick, Leeds

"I received the invitations on Saturday and they are more than ok, they are
absolutely perfect! They are so beautiful I almost don't want to send them!
When I first emailed you all those weeks ago I was a bit down as I thought I
was never going to find what I was looking for and time was running out. You
have far exceeded my expectations and I shall be recommending you to anyone
that will listen! My only regret is that we can't afford more, but you never
know what I can convince him of so don't rule out an order for Thank You
cards just yet!

Thanks again Lucy, you've been brilliant"

"I absolutely love the invitations, everyone has been admiring them and I'm
so, so pleased with them - thank you very much!! "

"Lucy did an absolutely amazing job, in designing and producing table plans and number cards exactly as we had in mind! We couldn't find what we wanted anywhere else but Lucy made them as per our ideas. She sent me samples and was always quick in responding to questions and queries! I had already had my invitations sent by the time I found Lucy for our table plans, but otherwise would have definitely asked her to make these too.. "


Trina & Paul Morris, Watford

"Lucy from Ladybug Designs is an extremely talented, creative person with a
fantastic eye for detail and is a true perfectionist! Lucy understands how
important the type of stationery used at a wedding sets the tone of the day and
she provides an excellent consultation with her customers at their home to
understand any theme for the occasion, to ascertain exactly what they would
like in terms of colours and font and does this in line with her customers
budget. She produced the most elegant wedding stationery for our autumn wedding
in October 2007, which all of the guests commented on and many have kept as a
treasured memory of the day. Furthermore, Lucy provides pristine customer
service. She personally delivered our invitations to our home, which was very
unexpected and greatly appreciated. My husband and I highly recommend using
Lucy if you want unique and beautiful wedding stationery for the most
important day of a couple's lives.

Thanks Lucy."

"Lucy created my wedding invitations and thank you cards exactly as I had them pictured in my head. Not only did I receive fantastic stationary; but Lucy was an absolute joy to work with - so friendly and so accommodating to my needs. Thank you Lucy! "


Mariam, St Albans

"Thank you so much for the cards, they are absolutely stunning and exactly what I wanted!
Thank you for your patience especially regarding the wording!
Everybody has been commenting on how lovely they are and how professional they look - my cousin thinks they look like Blue Mountain cards (but better of course! ;)
If I ever need more cards I will come to you and I would hesitate to recommend you. "

ABOUT choosing your Wedding Invitations
By: Nick Pavel, Fri Dec 9th, 2005 11:47:03 PM
Planning a wedding is a great deal of fun, but it also requires a significant amount of planning. Once you have set your date, one of the first wedding details you should turn your attention toward is the selection of your wedding invitations. While at one time traditional wedding invitations appeared only as white or ivory with engraved black in, today there are numerous options available for the modern bride. Due to the wide variety of designs and styles in wedding invitations available, you'll want to get started early in choosing the perfect wedding invitation.

There are numerous factors that will affect your choice of handmade wedding invitation. The first question you should ask yourself is whether you are planning to have a formal, semi-formal or casual wedding ceremony because the type of ceremony you plan will impact your choice of invitations.

Regardless of whether you choose formal, semi-formal or casual wedding invitation, generally, a wedding invitation includes the invitation itself as well as a reception card, response card, separate envelope for the response card, detailed information on accommodations for guests and riving directions and important telephone numbers.
Be aware that while there are literally thousands of styles and designs of invitations available for the choosing, there are only six basic types of invitations. These include:
Engraved
Thermo graphed
Printed
Calligraphy
Handed colored
Box set

Engraved invitation are the most classic and traditional choice of invitations available. They are also the most expensive type of invitations on the market; however, if you are planning a very formal wedding, engraved invitations are an absolute must. Keep in mind that you should order your engraved invitations no less than 8 weeks from the date of your wedding, preferably farther in advance.

Thermo graphed invitations provide an affordable alternative to engraved wedding invitations. The end result is a very elegant look and while thermo graphed invitations might not be appropriate for a very formal wedding, they would work well for a semi-formal wedding. Plan on ordering these invitations at least six weeks in advance.

Printed invitations are one of the most popular choices on the market and are very cost efficient. You can find a wide variety of printed invitations available through most stationary and printer vendors as well as on-line. While the turn around time for printed invitations is typically better than engraved or thermographed options, you should still plan on ordering your printed invitations at least 4-6 weeks in advance. Printed invitations are appropriate for semi-formal and casual weddings.
Handmade Invitations - allows you to customise invitations, handmade wedding invitations often are bespoke
One option in printed invitations that is definitely gaining favor is the alternative of purchasing 'blank' invitations from printed stationary retailers and then printing your own information. This gives you the option of choosing the design you want and saving a few dollars by handling the printing on your own.

Calligraphed invitations are very elegant and work well for weddings with an old fashioned theme. They can be very expensive; however, due to the amount of time and effort involved in producing them. When deciding on whether to choose calligraphy invitations remember that you need to allow extra time for preparation, plan on additional cost and keep in mind that this type of invitation may smudge if it comes in contact with even a slight amount of moisture. Calligraphy invitations are appropriate for all types of weddings except very formal events.

Hand made invitations are gaining in popularity not only because they are cost efficient but because they add a nice personal touch to a very special occasion. There are numerous options for creating hand made invitations and basically the sky is the limit with choices. Just remember to plan on making additional invitations in case of mistakes and allow plenty of time, especially during this hectic time of your life. Handmade invitations are appropriate for most weddings except very formal events. Handmade invitations can also be easily generated with desktop publishing programs and attractive stationary.

Box set invitations are available at most stationary retailers and can provide an quick and easy alternative to other types of invitations. This type of invitation can also be easily dressed up for a unique and personal touch.

Regardless of which type of invitation you ultimately choose, do be sure to allow plenty of time for printing and an additional two weeks for mailing. Also, consider interesting and unique ways you add a personal touch to your wedding invitations, such as unique wording and verses.
