Georgia & Michael | An Elegant Green Wedding at The Farmhouse at Redcoats
There’s something so special about seeing a stationery design come full circle – from the very first wedding invitation to all of the little paper details sitting beautifully in place on the wedding day.
For Georgia and Michael’s May wedding, I created a collection of bespoke wedding stationery that carried their elegant green and white colour palette from their invitations right through to their reception at The Farmhouse at Redcoats in Hertfordshire.
The result was a timeless, understated stationery suite filled with soft sage and olive greens, crisp white card, delicate typography and curved shapes – all designed to complement the beautiful florals and rustic surroundings of their wedding day.
Setting the tone with their wedding invitations
The stationery journey began with Georgia and Michael’s wedding invitations.
Their main invitation was kept beautifully minimal, using a clean white background paired with elegant serif typography and delicate handwritten-style details. The restrained design gave the invitation a classic feel while still feeling modern and personal to them.
The invitation included the key details for their ceremony at The Holy Family Church in Luton, followed by their reception at The Farmhouse at Redcoats, Hitchin, Hertfordshire.
Alongside the main invitation, we introduced the soft green colour palette through their additional stationery. Their details card provided guests with useful information including accommodation, gifting and a note regarding children, while still feeling completely cohesive with the main invitation.
One of my favourite additions was their arched Happily Ever After Party invitation for their second day of celebrations. The curved shape and delicate floral illustration added another layer to the suite without taking away from its understated feel.
A deep olive green RSVP card completed the collection, introducing a richer shade of green that tied beautifully into the countryside setting of their wedding.
Carrying the stationery through to the wedding day
Rather than the stationery ending once the invitations had been sent, Georgia and Michael carried the same design language through to their on-the-day wedding stationery.
This is one of my favourite ways to create a wedding that feels considered and cohesive. Repeating colours, typography and shapes across different stationery pieces creates subtle connections throughout the day without everything needing to look exactly the same.
For the reception, I created their wedding place cards, table numbers and table talkers, all designed to sit naturally within the styling at The Farmhouse at Redcoats.
Sage green wedding place cards
The little semi-circle wedding name cards were such a simple detail, but made a beautiful impact once the tables were dressed.
Printed in a soft sage green with delicate white typography, each place card was designed to stand independently at the guest’s setting. Their curved shape echoed the arches used throughout the invitation suite and table stationery.
Against the white table linen, glassware and silver cutlery, the green created just enough contrast while still allowing the flowers and surroundings to take centre stage.
I especially love seeing how these smaller pieces of personalised wedding stationery become part of the overall tablescape rather than simply serving a practical purpose.
Arched wedding table numbers
The table numbers continued the curved theme with a tall, freestanding arched design.
Keeping these predominantly white helped them feel light against the abundance of flowers and greenery on the tables, while the subtle green typography connected them back to the rest of the stationery.
The mix of contemporary arches with classic typography worked particularly beautifully within the rustic barn setting of The Farmhouse at Redcoats – surrounded by warm timber, white florals, greenery and candlelight.
Wedding table talkers
We also created coordinating wedding table talkers, giving Georgia and Michael another opportunity to share information with their guests without introducing signage that felt disconnected from the rest of their wedding styling.
Designed using the same arched shape and minimal aesthetic, the table talkers sat amongst the flowers, candles and glassware as part of the table itself.
These smaller pieces are often overlooked when planning wedding stationery, but they’re a lovely way to communicate things such as photo-sharing information, QR codes, menus, schedules or messages to guests while keeping everything visually consistent.
A timeless green and white wedding at The Farmhouse at Redcoats
Seeing the full collection photographed on Georgia and Michael’s wedding day was incredibly special.
The soft greens within the stationery complemented their beautiful white and green floral arrangements perfectly, while the simple designs worked effortlessly against the warm wooden interior of the barn.
From their first bespoke wedding invitation through to the place cards sitting at each guest’s setting, every piece felt like part of the same story.
It’s also a perfect example of why your wedding stationery doesn’t have to be overly elaborate to make an impact. A carefully chosen colour palette, considered typography and a few recurring design details can create something that feels incredibly cohesive.
Georgia and Michael’s stationery was elegant, modern and understated – and seeing those little sage green place cards dotted around the tables might just be one of my favourite details from the whole collection.
A huge congratulations to Georgia & Michael, and thank you for trusting me to create the stationery for such a special part of your celebrations.
