Want your invites to stand out? Get them designed by these bespoke stationery houses
Announce the big news in style!
Picture this: the love of your life proposed to you, and now you are planning the wedding of your dreams. But first, you need to break the news to the world, and if everything else is going to be perfect, then your wedding invite definitely needs to be, too. These five design studios and stationery houses will make sure your wedding card is exactly that.
Sketch Design Studio
This Bengaluru-based luxury stationery brand has designs that put art front and centre, which doesn't come as a surprise with painter and illustrator Shipra Singhania Sanghi at its helm. The brand is known for its environmentally-friendly designs that take from nature—imagine wispy and delicate leaves, hand-painted water colour flowers, and more.
Radhika Pitti Studio
If you have a themed wedding, then trust Hyderabad-based eponymous Radhika Pitti Studio to pull it off effortlessly. With a clientele that includes Rajkummar Rao among others, they are known for their art-heavy designs that are inspired by Indian motifs and patterns. From eccentric invites to classy, minimal ones, you have a whole gamut of options to choose from.
Ravish Kapoor Innovative Invitations
The Delhi-based brand has been preferred by stars like Sonam Kapoor Ahuja and Shahid Kapoor, among others. You know your invite will be in good hands. From wedding cards that feature customised maps in exquisite details, to temple-shaped invitations complete with a small Ganesha idol and a bell—you name it, and the brand will do it for you. They even do out-of-the box designs—like bespoke wine boxes and velvet scrolls.
Uttara Shah Invitations
Uttara Shah Invitations, founded in 1999, is all about elaborate invitations with a desi touch—they designed wedding cards for actor Imran Khan, and more recently did the invite for Akash Ambani’s engagement. Think cut-out style designs that mimic the jaalis (intricate grill) of Mughal buildings, customised water colour sketches, and invites that resemble doors of old Rajasthani palaces. Plus, if you’re looking for packaging for wedding favours or table name tags, then they’ll design that too in the same theme.
Diksha Mehta Invites
If you want contemporary wedding invites with traditional elements, then Mehta is your go-to. Her company’s forte is marrying modern designs with a classic look—from paper invites, laser-cut ones, invitations in the form of a scroll, pop-up cards, to e-invites and more. One of her notable designs include minimal-style postcard-themed invitations she made for a couple who likes to travel—talk about attention to detail!
