Please Be Seated...

In an ideal world all of our wedding guests would pick a seat at the reception and would happily get along with whomever they sat next to.

In reality Aunt Mabel can't sit next to Uncle Jack because they fell out in 1976 over Great Grandma's pearl necklace and haven't spoken a word to each other since.  Then there's cousin Jean who has some issues and really needs to sit close to the toilets.  Uncle Pete gets incredibly drunk and starts singing rude songs if he's sat next to second cousin Jim.  All in all weddings are a cause of a lot of headaches for those given the task of organising them.

Let us take some of the headache from you by printing your table plan.

We have two types of table plan available in a style to suit your tastes, and we will match it to your wedding colour scheme.

Foamex Board

This is an A2 foamex board table plan.  This version is portrait with rectangular tables.

This is the same A2 foamex board.  This version is landscape with round tables.

This style of table plan is very popular and costs from £48.

X-Banner

This is our other style of table plan know as the X-Banner.  This is a laminated banner with eyelets which can be attached to the X-style stand.  This table plan is popular with large weddings as it allows more room for more tables and guests. Some brides choose this style and get creative, having the table plan at the top, and photographs of the bride and groom at the bottom.

This photo shows the table plan at the top and pictures from where the couple met - at a mutual friend's wedding in Las Vegas!

Some brides choose to put pictures of themselves and their future husband from when they were babies.

This table plan costs from £65, and the bride would rent the stand from us.

If you need a table plan please contact us today to make an appointment for a chat.

Bride On A Budget

At Kearline Invites & More we are conscious of the fact that not all brides have a £20,000 budget for their wedding.

If you are a bride on a budget we'd love to help you, so read on for some money saving ideas.

As a budget-conscious bride you might be considering making your own invites, but did you know that by the time you have bought everything you need to make your own invites it can actually work out more expensive than if you came to Kearline for your invites?


You have to buy card which can work out to be quite expensive as most household printers will only print up to A4 size. If you run out of card sometimes it's difficult to get the same card even if you go back to the same shop, especially if you bought it on sale.

 
Then there is the ink for the printer, and again depending on your design and colours used it can work out very expensive on ink.

You might have chosen a design you've seen on the web, but you can't just use that image you've found, there's issues such as copyright, and the quality of the image will probably be too low to print without blurring.  

Some printers struggle to print on card, so be prepared for jams and for some pieces to slip through without printing the whole image.  Setting up the document on your home pc can also be a minefield, spending time lining up the inside so that it is in the correct position in relation to the front - be prepared to waste more ink/paper/time trying to get this right.



With all of the other wedding planning to take care of, do you really have the time to dedicate to gathering supplies and sitting next to an increasingly annoying printer, feeding in single sheets of card to ensure that it doesn't jam or take two sheets at once and print half on one sheet and half on the other? Not to mention spending hours sticking more bling/ribbon to yourself than to the card?

If you answered no to the above questions then worry no more.  Our invites start at just £1.75 for a folded double sided card if you choose one of the designs from our existing ranges.  Flat invites start at £1.40.

Another great money-saving point is that with Kearline Invites & More there is no set minimum order, so you can order as many or as few invites as you need. 

Because we  print on larger card we can keep our costs low, which we then pass onto our brides.



So give us a call to make an appointment today, and breathe easy knowing that you have one less thing to worry about, and it won't make a big dent in your budget!

We Don't Just Do Invites....There's More....

Here at Kearline Invites & More we love creating beautiful wedding invites, but did you know that we do more than just invites?

We can do all of your wedding stationery in your chosen theme.

We can do Save The Date Cards, Table Place Names/Numbers, Table Plans, Order of Services, Post Boxes, Directions, Reply Cards... and the list goes on.

Below are just a few of the items we can do for your wedding.  If you aren't sure if we can do it, just ask!




On the left hand side of the photo above you can see two of the styles of Table Plan we offer.




The tall long one is our X-Banner Table Plan.  This is a laminated banner with eyelets which attaches to an 'X' shaped stand.  This is popular with big weddings where there are a lot of guests, or you can choose, as in the example shown, to put some favourite photographs on the bottom under the table plan.  The banner is yours to keep, but you will need to rent the stand from us.


The smaller version is an A2 foamex board.   This one is quite popular with our brides, but does not come with its own stand so you will need to see if the venue can provide a stand for you.




On the above photo you will see the Directions and Reply Cards.  These are popular with the pocket fold style of invite, as everything is contained within pockets, however we can do directions and reply cards for any style of invite.


 On the above photo you can see the Order of Service.  



These are different types of table settings.  Shown are the Table Name, Guest Name, and a small card telling the story of why the table has that name.



This picture shows a Save The Date Card and a Thank You Card in the same range.



We can also supply you with a post box for your wedding day.


It doesn't end there either!  Aside from Wedding Invitations and Stationery, we also do Birthday Invitations, Wedding Vow Renewal Invites, Engagement Invites, Christening Invites, and so much more.

Our sister company Kearline Graphic Images also do design and print.
