Fonts, Wording & Gallery

Fonts - Please choose from my font collection or advise me of another font you wish to use and I will do my best to download it.

Gallery - There are four pages of photographs to choose from.
The first step is to choose the invitation you would like from the 'You Design" collection and then the photograph you wish to have. There is a wide selection of photographs available from the gallery ranging from roses to New Zealand landscapes and  if you have another photo you wish to use e.g. a photo or picture that is significant to you both, then please email me your request.  You can also choose to have your favourite wedding photograph on your Thank you card.
