I’m Carrie, the designer behind Honey Bee Mine. After more than 20 years in graphic design and art direction, I now create luxury wedding stationery for couples who care about both the big picture and the smallest details. I love getting to know the story, setting and style behind a wedding, then translating that into invitations and wedding-day pieces that feel personal, beautifully made and unmistakably yours.

Honey Bee Mine Full Description

I’m Carrie, the designer behind Honey Bee Mine, a luxury wedding stationery studio based in Cheshire, creating design-led invitations and wedding-day stationery for celebrations across the UK and beyond.

From Signature Collections to completely bespoke commissions, I design each suite as part of the wider visual story of the wedding, bringing together typography, colour, beautiful papers and specialist finishes to create something that feels personal to the celebration.

Bespoke commissions can include everything from Save the Dates and invitation suites to menus, place cards, table plans, Orders of Service, welcome signs and other wedding-day details, with specialist finishes such as hot foil, embossing, die-cut shapes and layered formats.

Before launching Honey Bee Mine, I spent more than 20 years in graphic design and art direction, and I bring that broader design perspective to every wedding by thinking beyond individual pieces so the stationery feels connected from the first invitation through to the day itself.

I work with couples, planners and venues across the UK, offering both Signature designs and a fully bespoke service for couples looking for something distinctly their own.

Exquisite stationery for a special occasion
Carrie provided the most stunning stationery. It was all delivered beautifully boxed so as not to get damaged beforehand. The theme was a woodland wedding and the whole package fitted the brief perfectly. Everything from his and hers ‘Vows’ books, place settings and orders of service, were all made from high quality materials and hand finished with silk ribbons and tassels. If you are looking for exquisite stationery for a special occasion a would absolutely recommend using Honey Bee Mine.

The perfect stationery for my event
Carrie designed and created the perfect stationary for my event. The colours, textures, fonts & designs were perfectly on point & met the brief exactly, with added adornments to finish the look it was beyond my expectations. I highly recommend Carrie for any stationery you may need, from invites to table placements, menus to vow books she can create them all perfectly.

The stationery was breathtaking
I had the pleasure of working with Carrie on a woodland wedding shoot. Carrie was so attentive and enthusiastic. I shared a moodboard to show the vision for the shoot, and she went above and beyond to bring it to life. The stationery she created was breathtaking – the stock felt so luxurious, the print quality was immaculate, every detail from the ribbons to the tassels truly elevated the entire look of the shoot. Beyond her incredible talent, Carrie herself was an absolute delight to work with.

FAQs
Find out a bit more from our FAQs

Do you offer bespoke wedding stationery?

Yes. I offer both Signature Collections and a fully bespoke service. Bespoke commissions are created from the ground up around your wedding, venue and wider visual direction.

Can you create stationery for the whole wedding day?

Yes! This is my speciality. Alongside Save the Dates and invitation suites, I can create menus, place cards, table plans, Orders of Service, welcome signs and other wedding-day stationery so everything feels beautifully connected as part of your wider wedding design.

Do you work with couples outside Cheshire?

Absolutely. I’m based in Cheshire but work with couples, planners and venues across the UK and beyond.

What print finishes do you offer?

Depending on the design, commissions can include specialist papers, hot foil, embossing, die-cut shapes, layered formats, pocketfolds and other tactile finishing details to perfectly capture your vision.

How far in advance should we enquire?

I’d recommend getting in touch as early as you can, particularly for bespoke commissions or larger wedding-day stationery projects, as availability is limited.

Can you work with our planner or stylist?

Yes. I’m very happy to work alongside planners, florists, stylists and venues so the stationery feels part of the wider wedding design.

Do you provide digital files for us to print ourselves?

No. I supply the finished stationery rather than print-ready artwork files, so I can ensure the finished result perfectly reflects the overall vision.

Is assembly included?

Yes. All of your invitations arrive fully assembled and ready to share. This includes elements such as pocketfold assembly, ribbon, belly bands, liners and layered pieces, depending on the collection or bespoke specification.

How do Signature Collections work?

Signature Collections offer a more streamlined way to work with Honey Bee Mine, using a curated design as the starting point. You can personalise the design with details such as wording, colours and selected finishes, while keeping the overall direction of the collection. They’re ideal if you love one of the existing styles but still want your stationery to feel personal to your wedding.

What does the design process look like?

Once you’ve enquired, I’ll guide you through the options and provide an indication of costs before you decide how you’d like to proceed. From there, I’ll gather the details I need, develop the design direction, and refine everything with you before we move into production and creation of your finished stationery.
