TESTIMONIALS

We cannot recommend Ananya Cards and Vaishali highly enough! Everything from beginning to end was quite simply fantastic. Vaishali created a beautiful bespoke version of one of her stunning designs for our wedding stationery, and she really understands how creating something the client wants means taking the time and effort to fully understand their needs, and what they would like their stationery to represent and symbolise.

The entire package was just spectacular and captured all the elements we had discussed at the first meeting with Vaishali and symbolized our different cultures and heritage. Despite the fact that we live in New York, Ananya Cards is based in London and the invitations et al were printed in India, the service Vaishali provided was professional, forthcoming and ingenious. 

Vaishali took responsibility and delivered what will be a momentous wedding invitation package. We received compliments on our invitations from all over the world. Thank you Vaishali for the most fabulicious, blinging, and breathtaking invitations we have seen. Ananya truly is a company representative of the multicultural society and sophistication of the 21st century.

When my husband and I were looking for stationery for our multicultural British-Indian-German wedding, we at first struggled to find something that seemed representative of all our traditions. Vaishali's elegant, refreshing and well thought-through designs immediately caught our interest. Through our consultation with her, we were able to create invitations and menu cards that felt truly special and got the tone of our wedding just right.

Many guests from both our families, as well as friends, commented on the beautiful stationery at our wedding.  Throughout the process, Vaishali was extremely professional, reliable and always fast to come back to us. I found dealing with the specific design aspects of the project on What's App efficient and appreciated Vaishali's flexibility in communication.  I have recommended Ananya Cards to others because I just think the designs are unparalleled in the UK wedding stationery market. Particularly for modern British-Indian couples, I think Vaishali is the top address for creative, timeless, and tasteful stationery - and it is the stationery that sets the tone for your wedding as a whole.
