Liverpool Wedding Stationery
Liverpool is my home. I was born here, raised here, studied graphic design here, and married my husband Dave in the city centre... so when I illustrate a Liverpool venue, I'm drawing from memory, not a photograph. Ok, also a photograph, let's not get silly. But, that connection runs through everything I create, from illustrated drawings of the Liver Building to designs inspired by the glasshouse at Sefton Park Palm House.
If you're planning a Liverpool wedding, you'll find designs here that already celebrate some of the city's most iconic venues- and if your venue isn't featured, I can illustrate it as part of a Bespoke Design or semi-custom commission.
Designs inspired by Liverpool
Featuring the Royal Liver Building
The Minimal Monochrome Collection
Sometimes less really is more. This beautifully restrained black and white design features an illustration of the Liver Building as standard- though it works just as beautifully without, or with your own venue drawn in its place.

Inspired by Sefton Park Palm House
The Tropical Palms Collection
I created this collection after falling in love with the extraordinary Victorian glasshouse at Sefton Park Palm House- that magnificent space where tropical plants reach towards the light under a soaring iron and glass dome. It felt like it deserved its own design.

Born from a Royal Liver Building styled shoot
The Frosted Garden Collection
This icy blue design was born during a winter styled shoot at the Royal Liver Building. The cool elegance and clean architectural lines of the venue shaped every detail- and I think you can really feel that when you see it.

Getting married at a Liverpool venue not listed here? I can hand-illustrate any venue as part of a Bespoke Design commission, or add it to any semi-custom design for a personal touch.
A Liverpool designer, through and through
Our own wedding stationery featured an illustrated Liverpool skyline and a hand-drawn map of our favourite city centre spots- and honestly, that's what sparked Hawthorne and Ivory in the first place. I know this city inside and out, and I love weaving that into the stationery I create for couples getting married here.
Working with a local designer means more than just convenience. I know the sweep of the Liver Building against the waterfront, the light filtering through the Palm House dome, the warmth of a Hope Street Hotel reception. That familiarity finds its way into every illustration- there's a real difference when you have a deep connection to the city.
Whether you're after a semi-custom design that already features a Liverpool venue or a fully bespoke suite built around your own celebration, I'd love to hear from you.

How wedding planning took over my life...
This is where it all began. In my very first blog post I share my story: growing up in Liverpool, studying graphic design and illustration, then planning my own October 2016 wedding to Dave. From illustrated portrait save the dates to a city skyline invitation suite and a fingerprint guest book, I fell head over heels for stationery. Cue post-wedding blues, a test Etsy shop, and handing in my notice to make Hawthorne and Ivory official.
