Arca Paper
About
Overview & Vibe
Arca Paper is a bespoke wedding stationery studio in Brisbane, working with couples across south-east Queensland and northern New South Wales and on destination weddings overseas. It offers two routes: two semi-custom collections, where the design is already drawn and you tailor the colours, wording and quantities; and a fully bespoke service designed around your own brief. The studio describes its own style as minimalist, refined and editorial.
Style & Printing
Both collections are built on premium matte textured paper with custom illustration. The Sarakiniko Collection is a modern take on European summer, illustrated and playful; The Vogue Collection is contemporary and quietly bold. Colours are open — the studio states that any design can be modified to a colour preference, and its own galleries show ivory, blue, almond and black. Designs are drawn by the studio and printed by a local printer, using paper from local suppliers.
Ideal For
Couples who want an illustrated, design-led suite rather than a catalogue template, and who are happy to work to a set design. A collection suite runs from save-the-dates through invitations, RSVP cards and envelope liners to menus and drink signs, so one look can carry the whole day. The bespoke service suits couples who want illustrations drawn for them, including for weddings held overseas.
The Need-to-Knows
Collection suites start from $300 and bespoke suites from $500, with pricing based on the quantity of each piece you order. On a collection order a digital proof arrives within two business days, you get one round of minor changes, and after you accept it allow two to four weeks; the collection designs are set, so fonts and layouts are not altered. A bespoke suite is quoted and scheduled through a consultation instead. Delivery is a flat $20 Australia-wide with tracking, and international shipping is not currently offered, though overseas couples are asked to get in touch. Because every piece is personalised, orders cannot be changed once placed.
Standout Feature
A $30 sample pack posted free, holding one invitation, two envelopes and an enclosure card, so you can feel the stock and see the print before committing to a suite.
Appointment Policy
- Work starts with an online enquiry or an email, and a free 30-minute consultation can be booked online. Collection suites are ordered online, with the wording collected before the order is placed.
Areas Serviced
- Australia-wide, with couples across Brisbane, Toowoomba, Byron Bay and Noosa, and destination weddings overseas.
Delivery & Setup
- Flat rate $20 Australia-wide by Australia Post express, with tracking once the order is dispatched. International shipping is not currently offered, though the studio asks overseas buyers to get in touch so it can be discussed. Sample packs are posted free.

Price Notes
- Pricing is based on the quantity of each piece ordered, and the studio notes that larger runs cost less per item. Because every piece is personalised, orders cannot be modified once placed and are not returnable, though the studio will correct an error of its own. Sitewide sales exclude custom orders.
Printing Methods
No details available.
Proofs & Revisions
- On a collection order, a digital print proof is emailed within two business days. You get one round of changes, compiled into a single reply, covering minor layout tweaks only - the collection designs are set, so fonts and layouts are not altered. The order goes to print once you accept the proof. A bespoke commission is worked through directly with the studio instead.
