We were absolutely thrilled with our wedding invites. With minimal contact, and completely over email, Brenna was able to take our complicated vision and depict it into classy, sophisticated, and elegant wedding invites. Being a perfectionist, I was particularly impressed with her creativity and talent. She was also very professional to work with. I would highly recommend Brenna and her services to anyone!

Brenna did an AMAZING job with all of our paper needs!!!

She is very creative and knows all of the etiquette when it comes to invitations/Thank you cards (and probably everything that has to do with weddings!)!

She responds to e-mails very quickly and is patient with her clients!

Her work is amazing! We had so many compliments on our invitations, most of which were "They are the prettiest invitations I have ever seen!"

She also created our place cards/menus and even signage! She will pretty much do anything that is in her ability!

We definitely would and DO recommend Brenna Catalano Designs to anyone that is in need of invitations/cards/signage!

Brenna was fantastic!! Let me begin with I live in Texas and she is in California, we did everything over the phone, email or mail. I was a little nervous about this, but Brenna quickly eased my nerves during our very first phone conversation. She was such a pleasure to work with and she was so helpful in the layout/design process. I gave her my vision and she turned it into reality...and better than I could have imagined. She got on my wedding website while we were on the phone and she sent me paper samples to ensure color/paper choice-no other stationer I interviewed did that. Her organization, attention to detail, prompt response and follow up put me a ease knowing she would take care of things ahead of schedule.

I loved my invitations so much I had Brenna do my weddin programs and some reception signs for our photo booth. She designed everything to match and I couldn't have been happier.

I will definitely use her again and I HIGHLY recommend her...you will be so glad you did!

BC Design Studio truly made our wishes come true for our wedding invitations. Brenna was always extremely quick to respond to any questions we had and updated us on the progress of our invitations. She created our dream invitations and we are forever grateful. I highly recommend BC Design Studio for wedding invitations. Thanks Brenna!

I was referred to Brenna Catalano Design Studio by another bride for my wedding paper items. She was amazing and affordable. At our initial meeting she brought lots of samples and spent a good amount of time trying to figure out what I liked and the style I wanted for my stationery. Initially I wanted letterpress but as we went over prices I decided to not go that route. Although Brenna's letterpress prices were better than other quotes I received, I needed multiple paper items printed for the wedding and needed to be cost-conscious.

We decided to print the save-the-dates first and discussed concepts and options. Brenna sent me a draft and we emailed back and forth editing design and content. She has a really good sense of etiquette and what the difference is between proper wording and casual wording. As soon as I approved a final draft, it went to print. The save-the-dates came out wonderful and we moved on to designing the invitations which followed the same process.

The invitations were definitely more elaborate and detailed. They came out AMAZING! Everyone told me how beautiful and classy they were. I know the invitations got everyone excited for the wedding and people knew it was going to be something special.

I also used Brenna for programs, seat cards, large seating chart, table numbers, buffet menu, thank you cards and digital calligraphy. All turned out terrific. With each item she made sure that I got what I had envisioned.

I was not a total bridezilla but I was definitely slightly neurotic and a little high maintenance. Brenna was always patient and committed to making sure I was happy with the final product. Everything she did was timely and she was always very responsive whenever I contacted her. Budget was of course a concern- she respected that and gave me great quality and value. I plan on having Brenna do personal stationary for me and would not hesitate to refer someone to her in the future.

We hired Brenna to do our invitations for our out of state wedding. Working with Brenna we felt comfortable every step of the way. She has a clear attention to detail and a gift on what she does. From the moment we hired her to the moment we received the invitations, each step of this process went smoothly. The end product is perfect and individuals who have seen it so far, are amazed. If you are getting married, Brenna is the individual who can make your wedding even more special. Look no further since your wedding will become a reality with Brenna and her creativity.

Brenna was highly recommended to us by our wedding coordinator. When we first met with her and reviewed samples of her incredible work, we did not hesitate to hire her services for our wedding stationary. Brenna was a true pleasure to work with, easy to deal with and incredibly creative! Further, she was always open to our ideas, made a number of fantastic suggestions, and never rushed us to make a final decision. We told her what we were looking for, and she managed to build multiple designs that exceeded our every expectation, within our budget. When seeing the final product from Brenna, we were so happy and unbelievably pleased how beautiful her creations turned out for us. In the end, we hired Brenna to design and build all of our wedding invitations, our menu cards, ceremony programs and thank you cards. And, on a number of occasions she went way above and beyond when we needed her help with some tiny extras for our special day. We absolutely loved working with her; Brenna is so incredibly passionate about her work and it shows. In short, she exceeded our every expectation! We would highly recommend Brenna to anyone looking for thoughtful, unique, exquisitely designed stationary for a wedding or any other memorable occasion!

Brenna is Awesome! I had ordered a set of invitations off a website thinking it was going to be easy for me to do them. It turned out that is was a lot more work than I thought. I called Brenda, met with her and told her what I wanted.. She brought examples to the meeting which really helped and it was hard to decide because I liked them all. She was able to do everything I wanted ( included a picture) and got them back to me promptly. I don't know what else I would have done! Now I am looking to order my Thank You's. I recommend Brenna for any kind of invite, she does a wonderful job- very creative. By the way, I have recieved lots of comments :) Thank You

I could not be happier with the invitations and other wedding coordinates that we ordered from Brenna Catalano Design Studio. I ordered everything via phone and email, and Brenna delivered exactly what I had in mind. Everyone who received an invitation from us told us that it was the most beautiful invitation that they had ever seen!
Brenna was completely professional, so easy to work with and the end result was absolutely spectacular. In ordering the wedding stationery, I had a lot of requests of Brenna and she had a solution to everything I threw at her.
The proofs that she emailed gave me a great idea of what I was ordering ahead of time, and Brenna was very responsive to all my needs and requests. She is creative in her designs, and she executes them with perfection! All in all, a wonderful experience, I love my wedding invites and would not hesitate to recommend Brenna's design studio to anyone who needs stationery of any kind!

We hired Brenna to do our invitations after falling in love with her custom cherry blossom invitations online. Although our wedding was all the way across the country, Brenna was constantly available by phone or email to help me with any questions I had and her attention to detail is astounding. Everyone complimented on her beautiful work, and Brenna also made custom magnets for my wedding favors that matched the invitations that were an absolute hit! I couldn't recommend anyone higher than Brenna Catalano Design Studio!

I feel so lucky I found Brenna! She was incredibly open and responsive to whatever I wished for and also helpful in suggesting perfect solutions when I didn't know what I wanted. She came up with a gorgeous, unique invitation, and then made lovely variations for the rehearsal dinner invitations, programs, favors, and guestbook. She was unfailingly professional and a pleasure to work with. I was thrilled to find such personal and affordable service. Everyone complimented me on her beautiful work!
