Retro Press is all about being unique, different and totally personalised. It is your special day that you will remember for the rest of your life, so you need to make every single aspect reflect this.
There are a few different options when it comes to the actual ordering of your wedding stationery. Retro Press do have an 'off the peg' range, in which you can choose a design that you like and Kate will personalise it to match your requirements - in terms of colour and wording, etc. Or you could use one of these designs as the basis and go from there.
The other option is to go completely off-piste and have something designed that you have envisioned. Kate loves nothing more than designing new stationery. Whether you want to go traditional, modern, quirky, boho, vintage, retro or whatever, Retro Press is the place to go!
Retro Press place a huge emphasis on providing an extremely personal service. During a friendly design consultation you'll be able to sit down with Kate and discuss your individual wedding style, theme and colour scheme, and together construct a unique design to reflect your special day.
Retro Press is offering 10% off the design fee when placing an order through The Wedding Secret.

Kate has been absolutely amazing! She took a call from a desperate bride who (as usual) left everything to the last minute. And I'm SO grateful she did! She had all the patience in the world for me, somehow knew exactly what I wanted, put my mind at ease several times over the most stressful few days ever and produced beautiful invites for us in such a short time.
The vision that she had for our invites was spot on and everything that she did was above and beyond. I would 100% recommend her to anyone!
Wow, firstly what a fantastic, talented and extremely creative person Kate at Retro Press is!
We first saw Kate's wedding stationery after a friend had used her for her wedding invitations, intrigued we looked at the Instagram page and thought there was no way we could afford the amazing designs! But something pushed us to get in touch and we are so glad we did!
Not only can we confirm that Kate is one of the only wedding suppliers that doesn't double the price as soon as the word €œwedding" is mentioned she also became a friend to myself, she listened, understood and gave some incredible idea's.
Our invitations were perfect, so much so that it was clear we would also be doing our Table Numbers, Seating Plan, Order of the Day, etc with Kate too! We are now planning the Thank You Cards and I just can't wait to finalise them as well!
We really can't thank Kate enough, from the beginning she had filled us with confidence and the quality of the end products really is second to none!
I cannot recommend Retro Press enough! Thank you Kate, lots of love
Kate has created exactly what I had imagined. With quite a unique colour scheme I found it difficult to find someone who could in visage what I had in mind. I came across Kate's business and knew straight away after messaging her that she would be able to do the job!
I have received my invites and they are so beautiful! Kate kept me updated throughout the process with quick responses to emails I sent. I would highly recommend!

I have been delighted with the whole experience of working with Kate and Retro Press.
Our wedding was very small and so our order wasn't going to be for a large amount - just 5 invitations and a further 10 celebration invitations. However I didn't feel I was hit with large charges for small print runs.
I asked Kate for input on the design as I had no clear idea on exactly what I wanted - but between the two of us we produced stunning stationery that received so many positive comments. Once the invitations were confirmed the place cards, table plan, thank you cards all followed promptly.
The quality was excellent as was the customer service and I would have absolutely no hesitiation in recommending or using Retro Press again.
