Acushla (meaning ‘beat of my heart’ or ‘darling’ in Gaelic) first came about when I was asked to design some bespoke table numbers and escort cards for a friend of a friends wedding. They wanted something very specific and personal to them so going down the completely bespoke route was the only option.
As a graphic designer I get this sort of request a lot, but at the wedding I got a lot of positive feedback from guests and soon realised that there must be a market for more modern and creative stationery that is 100% bespoke, and so decided to launch Acushla.

After just a year the work was soon picking up and we were being contacted from couples in Holland, Greece Russia and Austria, and the biggest breakthrough came in early 2009 when we asked to design the stationery for a Premiership footballer. They required 62 Swarovski crystals of different colours and sizes hand gluing to each invite so they took an age to complete but looked amazing when finished!
The thing I love most about Acushla is that the people who come to us want something extra special, or something really different to the norm, so we know from the start that each job we do will be different to the last and we love coming up with new and intriguing solutions to our couple’s briefs. We always think outside the box and approach each job with a blank canvas and no pre-conceptions on what the stationery should consist of which allows the end product to take any shape or form. We love it when we can surprise our clients with an idea that makes them go “Wow! I would never have thought of that in a million years!” As long as we know our clients are pleased with the end result, and could not have got the same invite/stationery set anywhere else, we can feel happy that we’ve achieved what we set out to do.Acushla Creations are a fresh and exciting creative design who are quickly establishing a worldwide reputation for producing unique, bespoke and extravagant wedding and event stationery with a difference. Our 100% tailor-made approach allows limitless possibilities!
Why should you be forced to conform to the typical wedding stationery stereotype? The days of traditional white meringue dresses, stale fruit cakes and formally posed photographs are well and truly numbered. Finally, weddings are being recognised as an opportunity to celebrate our personalities and individual style, and Acushla are here to help guide you through the process.
We live by the philosophy that each new project is approached without preconception. The rulebook goes out of the window and fresh, innovative ideas are generated for each and every couple.
