Hi, I’m Pad (he/him) and I’m the dark and campy mind behind Padraig Anthony Design.

Originally from Ireland and now based in Liverpool, my work is rooted in a love of bold storytelling and unapologetically striking visuals. After graduating in graphic design from Manchester Metropolitan University, I set out to carve a niche that felt entirely my own.

I create stationery that challenges the traditional and embraces something darker, more expressive and full of personality.

My designs blend dramatic and camp infused aesthetics with unconventional influences. I’m particularly drawn to the juxtaposition of beauty and darkness pairing rich florals with animal prints, layered with references to religious iconography and horror. The result is stationery that feels powerful, emotive, and unforgettable.

I aim to set the tone from the very first impression, crafting invitations and paper goods that feel like the trailer for the big day! Whether it’s a gothic romance, a theatrical celebration or something entirely unique my work invites couples to embrace their individuality and lean into the dramatic.

Padraig Anthony Design is for those who aren’t afraid of intensity, who love contrast and who want their wedding stationery to be as bold and distinctive as they are.
