About us

“At Diligo Bay we believe that every bride should have their perfect wedding invitation and shouldn’t have to compromise on quality to be able to afford it” Lou Bradshaw - Owner & Stationer

Lou Bradshaw trained at Middlesex University, London as a Theatre designer and after successfully achieving her degree worked in London's West End Theatre land for a number of years. One day a friend asked Lou if she could design and make her Wedding Invitations, and the rest, as they say, is history!

Diligo Bay has been running for 8 years now and relocated from London to New Zealand, Papamoa, Bay of Plenty 5 years ago and whist we still work extensively in England, Europe and across the world we are very happy to be based in beautiful NZ!

During our 8 years, we have had the pleasure of working with over 1000 brides but aim to make the invitation process for each bride a fresh, exciting and individual experience.  

Each one of our collections is designed to be altered to suite the client’s individual wedding. The feature paper, paper, backing card, ribbon and envelope can all be changed free of charge.     

We believe your wedding invitations should be exactly how you want them to be.
