Fantastic products. Our invitations were the frosted acrylic design and we carried this theme through to our On the Day Wedding Accessories
We had our signage printed on frosted acrylic...AMAZING
(seating chart, welcome board, menus, table numbers, place cards & wishing well sign)

Inspired Design has the best wedding stationary in Melbourne. They have a vast selection of paper and associated accessories for those interested in DIY invitations but they can print and you can assemble yourself if preferred.

They have so many wedding invitation options and designs to choose from including printing processes (digital, offset, letterpress, embossing, foiling, Verko (Thermographic) and laser cut) you will definitely find something unique that will capture you style and ambiance of your wedding day that will surely impress your guests. I opted for letterpress as I find this style classic yet elegant.

I recommend Inspired Design to all, whether it is for you wedding stationery or engagement or birthday or any other social occasion you will find everything you need at Inspired design

They also print business stationery and my husband had his letterheads and business cards printed with Inspired Design and the prices were great.

I purchased paper for preparation of my wedding invitations which we made ourselves.

the store has a huge variety of paper, envelopes etc for invitations and scrap booking.

the staff were extremely friendly and helpful in assisting me with ideas and inspirations to select papers which would suit the preparation of our invites

if i was not making my own invites, i would have had no hesitation in having this business make my invites .... after seeing many invites prepared by the business for other customers, i was very impressed

Inspired Design is by far my favorite wedding stationery retail store and yes I had been to quite a few as I wanted to make sure I made the right choice.

Inspired design offers customers with the choice of purchasing papers to do their own invites or you can hand it to the professionals to do for you.

The staff always go that extra mile to make sure you are happy and offer advice without the stress that occurs with the Wedding preparation (unlike some other invitation places who try to make the sale then stuff you around when it comes to printing your product).

Inspired design produced the most beautiful invites for my wedding - the least stressfull part in the organising of my wedding.

Great range, very friendly and helpful staff and very professional. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

I recently purchased my invitations at Inspired, my invites were very complex being crafty and hand crafted so I chose for them to finish the entire job. I must say both my fiancee and myself were extremely satisfied form start to finish. All our friends and family were very impressed with the final result. I have recommended this company to all my friends!!

My wedding invitation experience was fantastic.

I saw inspired design at the ABS bridal fair and was impressed with their invitation range. What was also pleasing was they they had a retail store and was able to visit them at my own leisure (no appointment necessary).

The product range was very impressive.

For my invitations I selected one of the inspired designs (Oriella) and they were happy to match the colors with a swatch from the bridesmaids.

The designer who was working on my invite was very pleasant and helpful and did a number of sample invites with the design for me to select from.

I also left the invitations to last minute and the turnaround was amazing (2.5 wks) which meant that I had 10 weeks up my sleeve to send the invites. Well they did squeeze me in which was most appreciative whilst all other invitation places were not helpful and were telling me 6-8 weeks.

The quality of their work was fantastic. All my guest were impressed and commented on the design and quality.

My cousin also visited the store and had a great experience - the whole process was smooth and the invitations were top quality

I definitely recommend going straight to inspired design for your wedding stationery. Don't bother with other places

I found the most awesome invite at inspired design. It was a black and white invite and the backing paper was actually plastic (check the website in crafty creations www.inspired-design.com.au). The price was most reasonable and the staff was most helpful. They even showed me how to assemble which was a huge saving. Definitely recommend a visit as they have the best range in all of melbourne

I was amazed by the range that the shop had. They not only took the time to walk me through all the bits and bobs...they were more than happy to answer questions, show me how samples looked with different bits stuck here and there and also to completely make me a design from scratch.

Harry gave me us a wonderful deal and for the work that went into them, I cannot even begin to say enough about their expertise.

I had french lace on pearl card, inlay of a different colour and two different font. The whole design process was wonderful, he had enough lace to make more invitations than necessary and he did...and gave them to me!!

They said roughly six weeks to get them completed and they were done in three...with RSVP cars, envelopes for all and exquisite invites ready and packaged in bags when we arrived.

An awesome team who were easy to talk to both on the phone and in person when necessary. Everyone knew what I was talking about when I rang even if they hadn't conducted the initial consultation.

Harry and his team are exceptional in all that they do.

The previous person sounds like the same person as the one above, very unfortunate to see this person complain even by their own admission they left their invites to the last minute and expected miracles I believe its your own fault for leaving it too late. Also if you provided your own guest list its hardly the company's fault the way it was printed. Sorry to say maybe you are the Bridezilla!!

I had Inspired do my invites but with no assembly, so i could save some money, off course I had to unravel my own ribbon since assembly was not included, but that was my choice!!
Keep up the good work inspired I guess you cannot please everyone!!!!

Inspired Design is one of the best wedding stationery stores I had visited during my search for invitations. Their selection and design range was outstanding. They were fully staffed and were available to spend time with us to assist in selecting the stationery suitable for our wedding theme. Their prices were very competitive but one must not forget the outstanding quality of the finished product. VERY PROFESSIONAL. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

I bought my invites from Inspired by You and they were sensational. Harry served me at the time and he spend hours with me. Eventhough I was very fussy he had the patience and time to sit with me and create something unique and different. Yes there were times he had to go and serve someone else but was back helping me ASAP. The designers were also prompt and attentitive to my needs and again given my fussiness were more than happy to accomodate some changes I requested eventhough they were not part of the initial instructions. The final product was perfect. I definitely recommend anyone wanting invites to visit the store. A TRULY AMAZING EXPERIENCE

Inspired by You made the invitation process very smooth and I was happy with the end result. The staff had the patience and provided me with guidance through out the process. They were also happy 2 do 2 different mockup as I was unsure which one I wanted as I was using different papers. As I went last minute I was extremely happy when I was told I could have my invites done in 4weeks. True to their word they were done a few days before the 4 weeks period. They were perfect and my family and partners family were extemely pleased with the result and my choice. Recommend everyone visiting

They sure had a massive range of paper (the best I have ever seen) and had very large quantities on the shelves which meant I did not have to put a backorder for my papers (unlike other shops that told me papers can take up to 4 weeks to get). My experience with the staff was the extreme opposite - VERY VERY HELPFUL. They had at least 4-5 staff working each time I visited and they had the time to sit down and help me design my invite. Yes there were times the shop got busy and staff would need to excuse themselves but would be back to chat with me fairly quickly. Their prices were also competitve. I had my invites all printed and assembled with them and I could not fault their professionalism - everyone I sent my invites were impressed with the quality and differentiation. It really surprises me that you had the run arounds and problems. My sister and 3 other firends also had their invitations done with Inspired or purchased papers and did not have any problems. I definitley would recommend people to visit the store and not waste their time with other invitation/paper shops.

I found the service to be poor almost like they did not have time for me. There was a lot to choose from and I needed service to help me out with my paper / design selection.

They have a great range of stationery, but I'd get my invitations printed elsewhere. They kept giving me the run around as to when I would get my invitations, until I was finally told "about 6 weeks" (they were due that week) I had to scream at people in the shop to get them before the wedding. They also changed the way I set out the wording so that the grammar was laughable, when all they had to do was tranfser the text into the correct font, so I had to wait for them to fix that as well. Price was reasonable, but you wouldn't expect that kind of service to cost much!
