Have you been looking for stationery for your wedding or civil ceremony and finding nothing quite suits you?

This is how I felt when I was getting married. Everything looked the same, and none of it was right for us as a couple. My partner and I love watching live music at festivals, going on city breaks and exploring the world’s best dive bars, or grabbing a craft beer and unskilfully playing crazy golf. Suddenly we were in a world of lace and frills and watercolour flowers that just didn’t fit. Does this sound familiar?

 
 
 

Hey, I’m Carly (she/her).

I work with you to create bespoke and customisable wedding stationery that is proud to be edgy, untraditional and a little unexpected. It’s my job - and my passion - to craft you the perfect wedding stationery, and ensure that it really represents who you both are and the day you want to have.

My work is proudly rebellious. I don’t have any expectations about your relationship, sexuality, race, gender - All I know is that if you’ve ended up here, you can’t find your fit in mainstream wedding styles. 

With Bells On! is an indie design studio, creating paper goods and wedding websites for couples with alternative tastes.

 
 

I’ve been a graphic designer for nearly 15 years, working across branding, publishing, app design and now very happily helping couples with their wedding stationery. I use all of my passion and experience to make invitations, signage, websites and paper goods that get you super excited about your wedding day celebrations - and I absolutely love it.

Let’s dive in! You can schedule a discovery call with me, completely free of charge, and we can chat about your wedding plans, style, hopes and dreams for the day. Let’s see if we’re a perfect match!

 
 

Wedding stationery that’s completely unique to you. We’ll start with a mood board, and I’ll guide you through to ideas, designs, printing and crafting. You can have any colours, fonts, shapes, logos, motifs and patterns you want.

Just got engaged?

It’s funny - when you decide to get married, you’re suddenly expected to know your ‘wedding breakfast’ from your ‘order of service’. Erm, what the hell are they?!

Did you two instantly become pros with a clipboard-budget-spreadsheet and full Britney headset the second you agreed to marry each other? I certainly didn’t! I had never heard about ‘declaring my intent to marry’ at a registry office, or about humanist celebrants or what ‘dry hire’ or ‘carriages at midnight’ meant. I definitely didn’t know how much to spend on each part of our wedding day celebrations, and frankly I barely understood what I needed to plan.

Well, you don’t have to worry - consider me your sidekick. I’ve planned and hosted my own wedding, and now through With Bells On! I’ve helped plenty of couples go from that newly-engaged confusion to sending out their cool, calm and collected post-wedding thank yous. I’ve got a heap of advice, tips, tools and tricks and I’m here to help! Check out some of the questions I frequently get asked below, and if you have your own then please get in touch and I’d love to answer it!
