Samantha & Paul's Navy and Cerise Pink Day Stationery

Samantha and Paul got married at Rowton Hall Hotel in the summer of 2015. The bridesmaid dresses and flowers were a mixture of purples, blues and pinks. 

Rather than going down the vintage route which is very popular at the moment, Samantha wanted something which was simple in design yet incorporated a wide range of typography & most importantly showed off her bold colour scheme. Many 2015 brides have chosen a colour scheme of pastel colours, so it was refreshing to see the bright colours coming back and it gave us the opportunity to create eye catching stationery and not be afraid of colour. 

Bold colours of Navy & cerise pink were complimented with a simple but modern design which paid attention to playful typography. For the big day we designed a Table plan, Place cards which teamed up as favours for her Bellini bottle gifts to the guests, Order of Services and Menus.

It was lovely working with Samantha and Paul and we would love to work with them again in the future.

Frozen Inspired Teacher Print

It was our pleasure to design this frame for Millie to give to her teacher Miss Shaw on her last day of reception 😊 Millie loves the film 'Frozen' so we added a blue and grey colour scheme 🍎

Give your teacher something personalised and unique as a thank you for the year. 

Alison & Paul's Love Bird Day Stationery

Alison and Paul requested brown paper invites with love bird illustrations throughout the design. The birds brought some humour to the invites you can see these cheeky chaps taking pictures and dancing around the stationery! 

To carry the theme through to the Wedding day we produced a Bird Cage Table plan with separate cards pegged on, place cards and an upload for their I Spy Cards. 

Alison is a photographer therefore wanted her guests to take control on the day, the I Spy cards gave a list of photos which needed to be captured.

Eve and Kieran's World Map Table Plan

"Happiness is a journey, not a destination..." 

Eve and Kieran love to see the world, for their table plan they wanted a World Map which picked out all of the destinations they've visited together including their honeymoon to Las Vegas, Hawaii and Florida. 

This world map was printed onto a canvas and stapled to a vintage gold frame. We pinned the destinations on by hand with butterfly clips and used string to pick out the places. 

We thoroughly enjoyed creating this Table plan for Eve and Kieran's big day and it looked amazing in Colshaw Hall.

Rodo Creative Raise £400 for the North West Air Ambulance in the Great Manchester Run!

Yesterday we took part in the Great Manchester Run to raise money for the North West Air Ambulance. The atmosphere was fantastic and seemed to carry us along - until we hit 8K and ate a Jelly Baby which actually just made us feel sick rather than giving us extra energy! But, with the encouragement from the runners around us we did it! We crossed the finish line thinking of the amazing £400 we raised for charity.

Our Times were: 

Becky Doherty: 01:05:46

Sarah Royle: 01:06:10

Well deserved cocktails to celebrate!

For our first 10K we were so pleased with our times, we have set the mark now and will try to beat these next year. It's Sarah's wedding in June next year so its also a good way to keep in shape for the big day! Everyone told us how well organised the Manchester Great Run is and they were right http://www.greatrun.org/ 

Again we would like to say a huge thank you to everyone who donated to our charity and also to those who came to support us on the day!
