Why Be My Guest Design?
You are busy...
...and juggling a million things - so we work hard on being quick (without compromising on quality) and keeping the process stress free & fast. More information on our turnaround times here.
We aren't design snobs
We pride ourselves on being practical and down to earth; designing for the real world, not the etiquette books. But of course, if you want to know what is the "right" way to do it, we can advise. We want you to have the stationery YOU want.
We are local
Be My Guest Design is proudly New Zealand owned and made. We are based in Mosgiel (Dunedin). The envelopes, pocketfolds and packaging boxes we use are all NZ made too.
Your personal designer
Our range of beautiful ready-to-order stationery is customised for your specific needs. You get your own personal designer for tweaks, changes + enquiries. That's right, an actual person designs your invitations - not computer software.
Love is love
For the avoidance of all doubt – LGBTQIA+ couples are welcome. We support and welcome any couple who wants to marry, to marry.
Wording worries?
No problem, we've completed thousands of orders and have heard it all. We are happy to help your invites say just the right thing. Balancing sharing relevant details versus overloading guests with way too much info is a fine art!
