The Story of Amara

Welcome to the first post on the Amara blog, where elegance meets ink, tradition welcomes modernity, and every piece of stationery narrates a love story.

My name is Sithee Povey, the founder of Amara. Today, I am eager to share with you the journey that led to the birth of Amara—a boutique wedding stationery business where we create not just invitations but timeless keepsakes that celebrate the union of hearts and cultures.

Our Origin

The story of Amara is a narrative of love, art, and the intertwining of cultures. It began whilst planning my own wedding. As a British woman embracing the rich heritage of Hindu culture, I pursued fresh wedding stationery that could reflect the vibrant fusion my partner and I represented. I was searching for something beyond stationery but a narrative of our unique love story, a keepsake that our guests could cherish forever.

When Passion Encounters Purpose

The joy and satisfaction from this personal endeavour sparked a realisation: there must be other couples like us, wanting to narrate their own unique stories through their wedding invitations. This realisation planted the seeds for ‘Perfect Pen Designs,’ which, after much growth, has blossomed into Amara.

‘Amara’ means everlasting—a name befitting a brand that aspires to create invitations that are not merely for a day but stand as a lasting testament to a couple’s love story. At Amara, we are dedicated to crafting luxurious, hand-crafted Indian wedding invitations and stationery that are contemporary yet timeless, personalised to capture each couple’s individual journey.

Looking Forward

The vision for Amara is straightforward: to honour the traditions that have passed through generations whilst embracing the individuality of modern love stories. Our stationery serves as a bridge between cultures, a celebration of diversity, and a tribute to the art of calligraphy.

In forthcoming posts, we’ll delve deeper into the realm of wedding stationery, calligraphy, and the stories that have inspired the creations at Amara. We invite you to join us on this exciting journey. Whether you are planning your own wedding, an admirer of art, or an aspiring calligrapher, we hope to inspire you and be a part of your narrative, too.

Thank you for being here at the commencement of Amara’s story. We are eager to be a part of yours.

with love,
