I’m Joe — a UK-based graphic designer specialising in personalised wedding stationery, occasion cards and meaningful paper keepsakes.
For over ten years, I’ve been designing thoughtful, design-led stationery for couples and families who want something personal, well considered, and beautifully finished. You may have also noticed my love for nostalgic, retro-inspired style.
You may already know my work from my Etsy shop, Designed by Joe, where I’ve had the pleasure of creating designs for 5,000+ happy customers. This website is where I bring that work together in one place, alongside new collections, bespoke projects, and ideas that go beyond the Etsy marketplace.
Thoughtful design for life’s milestones
I believe good stationery should feel personal, timeless and intentional.
Whether it’s wedding invitations that set the tone for the day, an anniversary card that says something meaningful, or a keepsake designed to be treasured long after the moment has passed, every piece starts with careful typography, balanced layouts and a strong sense of purpose.
All designs are created in the UK and professionally printed using high-quality materials, with attention paid to the details that make a difference — from paper choice to spacing, scale and finish.
Weddings, celebrations & keepsakes
My work covers a wide range of occasions, including:
-
Wedding invitations and on-the-day stationery
-
Anniversary and milestone cards
-
Personalised prints and paper gifts
I offer both ready-to-order designs and more bespoke options where something custom is needed.
If you’re unsure what you need, or would like to adapt an existing design, I’m always happy to help guide you through the process.
A personal, straightforward approach
I work independently, which means:
-
You’re dealing directly with the designer
-
Communication is clear and personal
-
Designs aren’t rushed or mass-produced
I know that stationery often marks important moments, so I aim to make the process as easy and reassuring as possible from first message to final delivery.
