Welcome!
We’re a team of three (plus one very fluffy happiness manager) who juggle the roles of 100 people, and we wouldn’t have it any other way!
Together, we’re the small but mighty team bringing your wedding stationery dreams to life.
Here’s who we are and what we do:
LALA
OWNER + CREATIVE DIRECTOR
I always have a million ideas on the go. You’ll find me creating designs, running our socials, chatting with clients, managing live chats, and occasionally causing a little chaos in the best way possible..
I am also a small business mentor and educator and the CEO of The Lala Group, Lala For Business and The Creative Republic and Good Vibe Scents
KELLIE
STUDIO MANAGER
Kellie is our High Priestess of ensuring everything is organised and perfect in every single way. Her keen eye for detail, refusal to take anything less than perfect, and almost supernatural ability to calm even the most problematic printer unit is legendary. She's in charge of running our busy design studio and keeping all of us sane!
KARINA
PACKING PRINCESS
The youngest of the crew, Karina is our order maker and
packing princess. She’s the one sprinkling confetti and making sure every
package feels like a little gift of joy.
KOPI
HAPPINESS MANAGER
The bestest boy ever! Kopi greets all our Paper and Ink couples at the door with a huge smile and wagging tail, as well as supervising all of us during the day. It wouldn’t surprise us at all if meeting Kopi is the highlight of the wedding planning process (and he’s always the highlight of our day!).
Paper and Ink Studio has evolved so much since it's foundation as Lala Design in 2003, when Lala first launched the brand at a market stall. Just six months later, she started leasing a small retail store in Leederville which she ran for several years, providing a one-stop shop for coordinated wedding stationery.
In 2019, Lala reinvented Lala Design into the bespoke, made-to-order design studio it is today. In 2022, we decided it was time for a brand glow-up, and Lala Design became Paper and Ink Studio (but we're still the same owner and awesome team - Kellie and Lala!)
