Oh heyyy, we're so glad you asked! You can find out more about who we are and how we got started below;
We know there are other wedding newspapers out there, but here’s why ours are on another level (and why couples who find us never look back!):
We singlehandedly put wedding newspapers on the map in the UK wedding scene back in 2021. What started as a unique idea for our own wedding originally in 2020 quickly became a must-have wedding detail, and by 2022, our newspapers were everywhere—in the hands of top wedding planners, suppliers, and pretty much every bride who wanted something different.
When wedding queen Georgie Mitchell (aka Georgina Rose Events) chose our newspapers for her own wedding, it set off a trend that every bride wanted in on. Since then, we’ve been the go-to for top wedding industry names like content creators Mrs Bunn & Social Sisters, and even celebrities—from professional footballer Angharad James' wedding to Amy Turner to Dancing on Ice star Alex Murphy's wedding to YouTube king Paul Klein of Woody & Kleiny. Oh, and we’ve also done a handful of NDA weddings—but you’ll just have to trust us on that one. 😉
We’re not just another wedding stationery supplier—we’re the original, the trendsetters, and the ones trusted by industry experts, celebs, and thousands of couples who want a wedding detail that actually makes an impact.
There's not a template in sight! ✦ Unlike Etsy templates or DIY options, we don’t do one-size-fits-all. Every single newspaper is designed from scratch, meaning it’s built around you, your story, and your wedding style. No awkward formatting, no generic layouts—just a completely unique design that looks polished, professional, and totally you.
We'll handle everything, so you don't have to ✦ If you've ever battled with design software or wrestled with a home printer, you’ll know—DIY isn’t always the easy (or stress-free) option. With us, there’s zero faff, no formatting nightmares, and no dodgy print quality. Just a smooth, stress-free process from start to finish. You send us your content, and we handle the rest—design, proofing, printing, and delivery.
Quality is the only option ✦ Our newspapers aren’t just good—they’re professionally printed to perfection. No streaky ink, flimsy paper, or blurry text. Just crisp, high-quality prints that feel as luxe as the rest of your wedding.
We know weddings inside and out ✦ We’ve created newspapers for thousands of weddings, so we know how to make them work perfectly for the day. Whether it’s making sure they fit beautifully on tables, getting the content balance just right, or adding thoughtful details that guests actually love, we’ve got you covered.
We're creating wedding history ✦ Most wedding stationery gets used for a few hours and forgotten. Not these. Your guests will laugh, reminisce, and take them home, and you’ll have something truly special to look back on.
So, if you want something unique, easy, and unforgettable—without the hassle. No templates, no stress, just the best wedding newspaper you could imagine, you know where we are.
As soon as you know you want wedding newspapers, we highly recommend placing your order to secure your slot. We have a limited number of slots per month, so booking early ensures your newspapers are locked in!
Here’s how the process works: 📌 When you place your order – Your slot is secured! 📌 Around 3 months before your wedding – We’ll check in to remind you of the process. 📌 Around 6 weeks before – We’ll reach out for your final content. 📌 Within the next few weeks – We’ll design your newspaper, send it for approval, and get it printed. 📌 At least 2 weeks before the wedding – Your newspapers will be printed and in the post to you.
If there are any delays your side for whatever reason, please don't worry, we can be as flexible as you need us to and we guarantee you’ll have your newspapers in time for the big day.
For all other products, we’ll dispatch them within 7 working days of ordering.
We do indeed! ✨
Alongside our wedding newspapers, we can create bespoke wedding stationery to match your vibe perfectly. Whether you need posters, cards, invites, table plans, welcome signs, banners – you name it, we can do it!
If you have something specific in mind, just drop us a message – we’d love to bring your ideas to life!
Because we care. We get it. We’ve been in your position, planning our own wedding, wanting every detail to be just right without breaking the bank or losing our minds. That’s why we started The Crafty Lab – to take the stress out of wedding planning while still keeping things 100% personal to you.
We’re trusted and loved by thousands of couples and wedding suppliers across the industry, and we pour our heart into every single newspaper we create.
But if you’re a DIY-lover, here's our application to be your wedding stationer;
✦ We save you hours of stress – designing a newspaper from scratch takes way more time than you think. Fonts, layouts, margins… it’s a lot! We take care of all the fiddly bits, so you can focus on the fun stuff.
✦ Completely custom – unlike generic Etsy downloads, your newspaper is designed 100% from scratch. No “one-size-fits-all” here – it’s made to be uniquely yours, not something thousands of people around the world already have!
✦ We know what works – we’ve created 2,000+ wedding newspapers, so we know exactly how to balance your text and photos for a professional, polished finish. No awkward layouts or blurry images!
✦ No home printer drama – let’s be real, home printing can be a nightmare (streaky ink, weird paper jams, misaligned margins, upside down prints). We use top-tier professional printing and our signature newspaper style paper, so your newspapers arrive wedding-day perfect. We believe that white should be reserved for the bride, not newspapers printed on bright white office printer paper that screams DIY.
✦ Less hassle, more magic – wedding planning can be overwhelming enough. We make the process super easy – you send us your content, and we bring it to life. No stressful formatting, no last-minute panic – just a seamless, stress-free experience.
So, if you want to keep the personal touch of DIY without the design stress, The Crafty Lab is your secret weapon! You dream it, we create it – and you get all the credit. 😉
Let’s make something amazing together! ✨
