kind words

I'm not really sure what to say... I don't feel I really gave you much to go on. However, you've encapsulated everything I wanted without knowing it. If that makes sense? I absolutely love the little touch: the airplane with the banner; the place to put the stamp for reply with our pic. I absolutely love them, as does Matt.

Nicky and Matt - November 2019

I am absolutely delighted with the invitations, they look incredible. Thank you so so much, I am so happy with them. I felt quite emotional when I saw them! They are so brilliant – classy/elegant but still modern and the colours look amazing. I am very grateful and can't wait to hand them out on Saturday. Will be very special being able to hand them out in person at our engagement party and I really appreciate you working so quickly to get them finished in time. I am looking forward to arranging an appointment in January/February to organise the rest of the stationery. Thank you again! Take care of yourself and we will see you in a few months! Warmest wishes.

Tasha and Stewart - October 2019

Hey Claire, 
No need for rough drafts, we love them!! Can we come and see you next week? The only day I can do is Friday due to work commitments.

Lyndsey and Matthew Harris - October 2017

Dear Claire,
I just wanted to send you a note to say thank you so much for those beautiful invitations you made for our wedding. I can't tell you how happy I am that we managed to get them out on time! I really appreciate your efforts to get them to us so quickly. On returning home from receiving the beautifully presented invitations in the green boxes, we immediately set to getting the invites ready for posting. But it was such an easy task as you had done all the hard work for us by putting everything together flawlessly. All we had to do was place them in their envelopes. So thank you so much. The invitations themselves are stunning. We have received so many compliments from our guests and I wish you could hear for yourself all the kind words said. I'll probably be back in touch in early June regarding table plans, menus etc. I hope you managed to have a good Easter, many thanks again

Dear Claire, 
Thank you!! We had an absolutely amazing day - the bookmarks and whole book theme, from the quotes to the table plan, were just amazing. It all looked incredible. We don't have any pictures from the photographer yet but will definitely send some over when we do get them. Thanks a million for everything, hope all is good with you!

Georgie and Akshay - August 2017

All I can say that is everything was perfect, you were so helpful throughout the process with changes and additional invites etc it was so nice to know everything was taken care off and was one less thing for me to worry about. We would highly recommend your services to all our family and friends and I'm sure you will be hearing from us again for future events we may have. Thanks so much for all your help!!

Kerrina and Kenny Bruce - July 2017

We have had LOADS of lovely comments about our stationery!

Joanna and Karl - January 2016

Hi Claire,
I posted out the first wave of invites to arrive on Christmas eve. The feedback I've been getting has been nothing but positive, and everybody loves them. 'Classy' 'elegant' and 'lovely' are the choice words. The RSVPs have been coming back thick and fast, Jens and I have decided to keep them and frame them. Some of the guests have been writing little notes which is really sweet, and the return slips lend themselves to this. They will look great on the wall of wonders in the front room.

Naomi and Jens - December 2015

Hi Claire 
Hope your well just wanted to say how beautiful all the stationery and wedding box looked,  all our guests commented on your work and your contact details have been forwarded :)

Nancy and Matthew Underwood - November 2015

Hi Claire,
Thank you very much for all your hard work, great patient and brilliant design! You are wonderful!
I tried to call you to say thank you earlier and but didn't get through. I just wanted to let you know how excited and happy I am for the thank you card you have made for us, it looks fantastic, truly beautiful, exactly what I wanted!  And the extra place card for me to save, you are so sweet! 
I feel so lucky I have found you (wish I found you earlier so you could have worked on our invitations), thank you for all your great taste and style, extremely patient and lovely to work with!  
A big thank you again! Lots of love, 

Xinglu and Lee Hosford - October 2015

Morning Claire,
Firstly – thank you so much for sending the stationery to us it arrived yesterday.
But the real reason for my email is to say how ecstatic I am with the overall finish. They are incredible. Everything looks amazing and I know they are going to fit in perfectly. You have done them exactly as we had hoped and imagined – in fact I think they are better than I had imagined!
You have worked so hard and changed so many things with no problem at all even at the last minute! I have really valued all of your input and it has been amazing to know that if you have an idea that you think will work better you have shared it with us to make sure everything looks as good as possible.
Myself and Jason are both over the moon! We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend you in the future.
Thank you so much for all of your work- you really are very talented! And thank you for helping to make the run up to our big day that little bit more relaxed!
Very best wishes

Many thanks for sending the Save the Date cards through – they look great and we really like the envelopes.

Chris Ayres and Chris Ayres - December 2010

I would highly recommend Lily Anna Rose wedding stationary to anyone. The customer service we received was fantastic – Claire Harding was always at hand if we had any questions or we needed advice on the design and was very patient with us when we wanted to make changes. We received samples of wedding invitations from other wedding stationary companies but none compared to the quality of materials used and attention to detail that was put into the Lily–Anna Rose stationary. The care taken to package and protect the invitations was excellent, we will definitely be ordering further stationery from Lily Anna Rose for our wedding reception!

Jane and David Knowles - September 2010

I just wanted to say a big thank you for the Order of Service.
They tried to deliver them last week but we were away so I have just collected them this morning! Thank you so much for everything that you have helped us with – the stationery is fab!

Lucy and Stuart Worth - August 2010

Invites arrived this morning. They are ‘King gorgeous!! Thank You. Thank you so much Claire – your designs and attention to detail are really professional and we really are delighted. They are the perfect opening style statement to our wedding day!

I could not praise Claire’s help and designs enough and would recommend her to anyone wishing to have that extra special touch when planning their wedding. Thank you again.

Camilla and Michael McDonald - July 2010

The wedding stationery that included, name placement cards, luggage tags for the tables and menus were all so intricately designed and elegant, we have kept them all as personal keepsakes from our special day.

Adele Williams and Richard Kersey - February 2010

Claire, thank you so much for our lovely invites. Throughout the whole process you were very helpful. Even the most silly questions were not too much trouble!! The prompt email communication was excellent, and helped us considerably in making the perfect invites for our wedding. We will certainly be using Claire again for our wedding table plan and thank you letters over the next few months.

We will recommend your services to all our friends and anyone who would be interested in smart, sophisticated, invites which are priced well. All our guests have already commented on how beautiful the invites are – and most importantly how unique they are (not to mention Claire took the time to provide Spanish invites for the majority of our guests). Thanks again!!!

Carmen and Sean Carmen Macdonald - January 2010

I just wanted to write to you to pass on my sincere thanks for the amazing invitations that you made me for my forthcoming wedding. They were exactly what I wanted and more, I have had so many people commenting on them and how beautiful they were; I hope the rest of the wedding lives up to this standard! It was great that we had the opportunity to share design ideas together, this meant the invitations were personally tailored to suit my needs and most importantly the style of the wedding. I will certainly be recommending you to any brides–to be!

Kirsty and Kier Haddow - September 2009

We found Lily Anna Rose to be very professional. The products were of high quality. The service we received was very personal. Claire was so very helpful throughout even with regards to any changes we made. You just don’t get this sort of service on the high street. We would thoroughly recommend this company.
