About

After A While Crocodile is a wedding invitation business located in Melbourne Beach, Florida.

I am thrilled you’re ready to begin the invitation design process, I would love to make your vision come to life and create something just for you. I pride myself on providing a personalized experience, from first contact to the final finishing touches.

To begin with, your invitations are the first impression your guests will have of your wedding.With that said you need to find or create an invitation that speaks to your personal style as a couple, that feels like it “matches” you, and reflects the kind of event you envision your wedding will be.

I am always available, from creating the design to assisting with etiquette, wording, printing, and assembly. I can be much more flexible and will handle requests that larger companies will not even consider.

My years of experience with invitations and stationery will allow you to sit back, relax, and enjoy the process. Let me create a paper story that will set the tone for your wedding celebration …and be met with the coveted “oohs and “aahs”!

Custom wedding invitations!

Julia actually created a custom set of save the dates, invitations and thank you cards that I used for my NJ wedding. She was recommended by my best friend who lives in Florida. I paid to have them shipped to New Jersey and it was 100% worth it! Thank you for beautiful one-of-a-kind invitations!

Excellence and Creativity At It’s Best!

After a While Crocodile provided the most beautiful invitations, stationary, cups and napkins for our daughter’s wedding. The owner creatively captured the couple’s wedding design with an elegance that enhanced their fall wedding in every aspect of her contribution. Additionally, her guidance and attention to detail were most appreciated as wedding trends had somewhat changed since we previously worked together, and no two brides are alike…even sisters!

If you're on the fence about custom invitations, GO TO JULIA!

We were partnered with Julia through our wedding venue to design a custom invitation suite and she absolutely delivered. I had very few ideas about what I wanted, and I had a hard time conveying that, too. After 3-4 revisions, Julia brought our picturesque floral invitations all together with a dainty pink envelope, twine, and wax seal. Our invitations were stunning and amazing quality.

Regarding custom invitations: I will say this part of wedding planning (picking out invitations in general) can be tricky and Julia made it so easy. Not having to stamp, stuff, address, mail, etc. was a huge relief. I had never really considered a custom invitation, and in the end, I can't imagine having done it any other way. After A While Crocodile was fantastic, and I recommend Julia 10000%.

Being in the wedding industry myself, there was no question on who I was going to for my invitations for my personal wedding. Julia communicated with us quickly and made decisions easy with proofs and options. There was not an idea that we threw at her that she could not accommodate or have an option for! You're the best Julia!

After A While Crocodile's timeless, classic, and carefully curated approach to creating truly one-of-a-kind paper arrangements, is a clear choice if you want a personalized touch that speaks to your relationship and wedding day. After a While Crocodile's attention to details and specifics were all carefully adhered to, and Julia still kept our overall theme/style uniform yet very unique to our relationship. We've considered using popular wedding stationary sites that are widely available, but the cookie cutter "pick from this list and that list" was not our style. Almost all of our decorations were made by hand (ours) down to the individual wedding favors and we want to have the same intimate touch when it came to our stationary.

Julia gave us plenty of input in terms of texture, paper weight, color coordination, and envelope to invite match. She sent us samples of our papers at various points throughout the process to ensure our satisfaction with the progress and kept us all on the same page. We received all of our papers well before the promised date, and we were able to enjoy and prepare our papers according to our timeline. Julia offered us a wide range of options based on our color scheme and hand embedded each envelope liner into the envelop ensuring the right alignment and giving it a real personal touch. She helped us create our "Wedding Invites", "Day Of Wedding Papers", and "Table Numbers"; everything from design, dimension, to delivery was perfect.

We categorically recommend After A While Crocodile to any and every one that desires unique, creative, beautiful stationary designs for any occasion.
