About

Heart E Designs is a wedding stationery & signage company based in Herne Bay, Kent.

Emily [Ems] the owner, describes herself as a storyteller, passionate graphic designer, and proud female business owner [as well as a mum to teens and a doting dog mum!].

Established in 2021, Heart E Designs creates beautifully considered stationery for couples celebrating across Kent and the UK, with work that is designed for people who value thoughtful detail, personality & meaningful design.

The business is built around the idea that Emily "Tells life and love stories through stationery". She believes stationery is "the glue that holds everything together", helping to set the tone for a wedding and creating a consistent thread through the whole celebration. From the first invitation to the final on-the-day details, her work helps couples tell their story in a way that feels personal, stylish & memorable.

Armed with her late Grandmother’s very own art pencil, she designs a range of unapologetically unique and quintessentially British personalised paper-based products suitable for Weddings, Birthdays, Christenings, Funerals, Parties, Events and just because...

The ranges now cover everything from Save the Dates and Wedding Invitations to Personalised Vow Booklets, Table Plans, Wedding Menus, Place cards and Guest Books. All to match your theme perfectly!

She prides herself on exceptional customer service, a fine eye for detail and an obsession to get your order right for you. No two orders leaving HQ are ever the same and - just like you - they are completely unique. Everything Ems designs is bespoke and because she is an artist as well as a graphic designer, if an order requires that little je ne sais quoi she is always happy to go back to the drawing board - quite literally.

Regardless of your style preferences and requirements, everything she creates is done with care, a high level of professionalism, a smile on her face and always with a cup of tea in hand! Designs often take their roots from nature; she us inspired by the beauty in people, places, pets, fashion and objects in addition to the boundless enthusiasm of her customers.

Products are designed in-house, then professionally manufactured and shipped free to UK addresses. Where possible, water-based inks are used in production and sustainable resources used in printing and packaging.

New designs are in the pipeline every day, so don’t forget to keep popping back. And remember, if you can’t find what you’re looking for or simply don’t know what you’re looking for drop Ems a message, as she would love to create some magic for your big day and she also admits to loving a chat!

Excellent designs and service

Emily was super to work with for creating our wedding stationary. We found just what we were looking for in the selection of designs. She created several versions to see what they would look like and suggested improvements to our original plans. Overall a great iterative experience resulting in exactly what we had envisioned.

Seating Plan: Outstand quality, incredible service.

I honestly can't thank Emily at Heart E Designs enough. From the very beginning, she was so kind, patient, and incredibly helpful. She genuinely wanted to make sure our seating plan was exactly how we envisioned it. She was more than happy to incorporate our logo and made every change I asked for, including adjusting the orientation and layout, until I was completely happy. Nothing ever felt like too much trouble.

When the seating plan arrived, I was genuinely blown away. The quality was exceptional, and it was even more beautiful than I had imagined. It exceeded all of my expectations and looked so elegant.

Thank you so much, Emily, for making the whole experience so enjoyable and stress-free. Your patience, creativity, and outstanding customer service made all the difference. I absolutely love our seating plan and couldn't recommend Heart E Designs highly enough.

Outstanding Wedding Stationery & Exceptional Service

We were recommended Heart E Designs by another local business, and we're so glad we chose Emily for our wedding stationery.

From the very beginning, Emily's designs stood out to us. She is incredibly talented and understood exactly what we were looking for almost immediately. Communication was excellent throughout the entire process—responses were always prompt, and no request or design change was ever too much trouble.

Emily created everything for our wedding, from our RSVP cards and invitations through to our place cards, as well as several personalised signs featuring her beautiful rose floral design. Every item exceeded our expectations, with outstanding attention to detail and exceptional quality.

We couldn't have been happier with everything Emily created for our special day. Thank you so much for helping make our wedding so beautiful—we would highly recommend Heart E Designs to anyone looking for stunning, high-quality stationery and fantastic customer service.

Highly recommend!

We couldn’t be happier with our wedding welcome sign! From start to finish, the supplier was fantastic to work with—friendly, responsive, and incredibly helpful throughout the process. The sign arrived exactly as described, with beautiful craftsmanship and excellent attention to detail. It looked absolutely stunning on our wedding day and received so many compliments from our guests. It was the perfect way to welcome everyone and really added to the overall feel of our venue. We highly recommend this supplier to anyone looking for high-quality, personalised wedding signage. Thank you for helping make our day so special!

Wedding Invitations

I cannot sing Emily's praises highly enough. From our very first email, to our first meeting, and finally receiving our beautiful wedding invitations, Emily has been an absolute joy to work with.

She is one of the loveliest, kindest and most supportive people you could hope to meet, and it shines through in everything she does. Emily takes incredible pride in her work, and her passion, creativity and attention to detail are evident in every single piece she creates.

Our cherry blossom-themed invitations are even more beautiful than we ever imagined. Emily made the whole experience feel personal, exciting and completely stress-free. She truly listened to what we wanted and brought our vision to life perfectly.

If you're looking for someone who genuinely cares about creating something special, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Emily. Thank you so much for being such a wonderful part of our wedding journey... We'll treasure our invitations forever!

Fabulous Art Deco Wedding Invitations

We had decided on an Art Deco wedding and approached Emily from Heart E Designs for help us create the right vibe. She was absolutely amazing and honed our vague ideas into something wonderful. She was always responsive and was endlessly patient with our constant requests for slight changes and tweaks. It was so much easier and less stressful to be dealing with a person who could advise, rather than trying to do some DIY website or faceless huge company, and her prices were very reasonable. Also Emily is able to create all the additional signage, place cards etc and can use the invitation design on the extra printing, so everything feels cohesive.
We were delighted with the results and look forward to working with Emily again on our welcome signage, and table plans.
We would very much recommend you engage her for your wedding printing requirements! Top service!

An absolute star!

We had a last minute change to our wedding table plans and I wasn’t sure if we would be able to get a new plan done in time but Emily was beyond helpful and managed to get it done and sent out to us so quickly! The table plan was so beautiful and we had so many compliments on it! Use Emily for anything you need, she is amazing!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to make your big decisions easier.
