More about E & O Design…
Based in Cheshire, I primarily create beautiful wedding stationery for couples across the UK. Whilst immersing myself in all things wedding, I put my ‘mum’ hat on and got to thinking about how difficult it can be to keep children entertained during the wedding breakfast and speeches!
Any Mums and Dads out there I’m sure you all know what I’m talking about! So if you want your wedding guests to completely relax, drink a nice cold glass of bubbly, eat a hot meal and keep your smallest of guests happy at the same time then look no further!
I have created these fun filled children’s activity packs currently recommended for ages 5+, but keep your eyes peeled, I have ideas in the pipeline for ages 2-4 coming soon.
Bundled together in a box with personalised label of child’s name and Bride and Groom details.
Contents may vary from photos (i.e. colour of bubbles, sweet mixture).

Let’s face it—children can get bored pretty easily at a wedding. Brides and grooms love our kids wedding day activity bag, packed full of treats, toys and things to do to keep little hands busy and occupied.
From eco-playdough that won’t stain fabrics, colouring pencils and accompanying activity book to a handmade wooden toy, there’s so much to choose from.
You could let your little ones indulge in a YumEarth lollipop or get them to earn their food with our Play in Choc box, which lets kiddos construct and learn about a woodland animals. Or if you’re teaching them responsible habits, show them the plantable pencil, made from carrot or spinach seeds for a keepsake that grows with them.
Everything comes neatly packaged in a linen bag—no plastic here, thank you!

We offer a bespoke T-shirt service for ted, so if you are wanting an extra personal gift we can print names and photographs of the bride and groom or guests, or a message on the T-shirt as an additional memento of your wedding day.

About Us: Be My Bear are the UK’s original Build-Anywhere-Bear company and the one-stop shop for quality, innovation and customer care. We work with high profile clients including TV ‘s Killing Eve, Baptiste, The Apprentice, Hollyoaks and the Mimic.
Children love to make and create and what better than making a t-shirt which marks the special day. This activity works brilliantly if you have organised adult/older sibling supervision, it will keep them busy whilst the adults can carry on celebrations.
The mess free paints have dabber tops and this means the t-shirts dry very quickly and the area is kept clean. Alternatively keep them busy at the table with our stencils, just add a pot of pens and a notebook so they can doodle away.
