Award Winning Wedding Stationers
Welcome to I Do designs and thank you so much for taking the time to stop by. Feel free to browse through our website and wedding stationery designs. This page is an introduction to us and our business.
I Do designs is a multi-award-winning Wedding Stationery business based in Stockport, Greater Manchester.
The business was started by Louise back in 2009. Emma joined the business in 2019 and we now work from a lovely studio in Cheadle Hulme, Stockport – near Manchester.
How it started
Louise got married in September 2009 at the Deanwater Hotel in Woodford, Cheshire. Louise has always been really passionate about stationery, so she decided to make all of the wedding stationery herself. She enjoyed it so much that she decided to help others with their wedding stationery.
16 years later
Emma and Louise have enjoyed so much success over the past 16 years in business. We have worked with lots of wonderful couples and have built a wonderful reputation. The award nominations and wins are an added bonus ofcourse!
Passion
We both truly love our work and we continue to let our passion shine through in everything we do. It gives us so much joy when a couple choose us to work with them.
Nationwide & International Coverage
We have established a strong reputation and a solid client base throughout Manchester and Cheshire. One of the advantages of wedding stationery is that it is easy to ship. This enables us to collaborate with couples from all over the country, as well as internationally.
Emma
I began working with Louise in 2015 after taking a break from my career to raise my children.
I came across a job offer from Louise at I Do Designs, where she was incredibly busy and thriving. She needed some help! After a successful interview at our local Costa café and Louise offered me the position.
Initially, I assisted with production, which remains one of my favourite aspects of the job. Louise and I now run I Do Designs together, and we share the role of running the business. My favourite roles within the business include designing and creating stationery ranges, meeting clients, and visiting local wedding fayres.
I feel so fortunate to have been given this opportunity. I truly love what we do and what we have achieved.
Louise
I got married in 2009 and made all of the wedding stationery myself. I enjoyed it so much that I decided to quit my job and start I Do designs (with a bit of encouragement and moral support from my mum and husband!).
It turned out to be the best decision I ever made. I love this business so much and I’m so proud of what we’ve achieved.
I’ve learnt that running a business can be daunting at times, but it’s easier when you absolutely love what you do!
Now that Emma and I are working together on the business, I feel like we’re set up for many more years of success.
I have a genuine love for stationery, design, colours, fonts and all things sparkly. I basically have the dream job!
Flexible Approach
We embrace a flexible, mix-and-match approach to design. Our wedding stationery gallery has lots of ideas and inspiration for couples shopping for wedding invitations. All of our designs can be fully personalised for you. Simply pick your favourite design and request a sample.
We Do Designs
‘I Do Designs’ literally means I do designs. But as there are 2 of us these days, technically it should be ‘We Do designs’! Whether you are looking for a more traditional design or a more contemporary style. We are always happy to work on new ideas and love the challenge of creating something new.
Keep It Simple
Despite having so many options available, we do like to try and keep things simple for our customers. Our wedding stationery galleries may appear overwhelming at first, but we are on hand to guide you. There are online filters and search options available to help you. You can search by style, colour and theme. However, if you are struggling to find what you are looking for please contact us.
