Live personalisation, created at your event.

Turn merchandise into an experience with live embroidery and on-site personalisation from Catchfly Merchandise.

We bring professional embroidery directly to your event, allowing guests, customers and clients to watch their chosen garment, cap, bag or gift being personalised live in front of them.

From weddings and private celebrations to corporate events, retail pop-ups, product launches and brand activations, we create memorable personalised merchandise that people actually want to keep.

We're now taking bookings for live embroidery events across Scotland and beyond for 2027

Tell Us About Your Event

Make your merchandise part of the experience

There's something different about watching your own name, initials or design being embroidered onto an item while you wait.

Instead of simply handing guests branded merchandise, give them the opportunity to choose it, personalise it and watch it being created.

Our mobile live embroidery service brings the equipment, expertise and creativity to your venue, with a range of merchandise available or the option to personalise products you've already selected.

Weddings & private celebrations

Create personalised keepsakes for your guests with live embroidery at your wedding or private event.

Popular options include:

  • Personalised caps
  • Tote bags
  • Sweatshirts and hoodies
  • Robes and pyjamas
  • Denim
  • Wedding party gifts
  • Initials and monograms
  • Names, dates and short phrases

A live embroidery station can become part of the entertainment while creating a unique favour your guests can take home.

Why live embroidery?

It's interactive

Guests don't simply receive a piece of merchandise. They watch it being created.

It's personal

Names, initials and bespoke designs make a promotional item feel like something made specifically for the person receiving it.

It's memorable

A personalised item created at an event becomes a keepsake rather than another piece of branded merchandise.

It's great content

The movement of the embroidery machine and the transformation of a blank garment into something personal creates natural opportunities for photography and social content.

It gets people talking

A live embroidery station creates a visual focal point that naturally attracts attention and encourages people to interact.

 

Your event. Your merchandise. Your personalisation.

Whether you're planning a wedding in Edinburgh, a corporate event in Glasgow, a retail pop-up in Stirling or a nationwide brand activation, we'll create a live embroidery experience around your event.

Tell us:

What are you planning?
Where is it taking place?
