beautiful wedding invitations and paper goods

I discovered Emily Rose Ink on instagram and didn't even bother looking for another designer for our wedding invitations--I had to have her. Her work is so, so lovely and of the best quality. Working with Emily was great, she is very attentive, responsive and friendly and turned around our edits quickly. She even added quite a few items we needed for our wedding day with only a few days notice. Her calligraphy place cards at our tables made everything feel so personal and intimate and special. The handwritten addressing on our wedding invitations just might be my most favorite detail from our wedding. Emily is lovely, her work is dreamy, and I cant recommend her enough!

Emily Rose Ink was the perfect designer for our invitations, save the dates and day-of materials. She is incredibly talented and did a wonderful job making unique materials that fit with our vision and style. She was fabulous and I can't recommend her enough!

Oh my gosh, I cannot say enough good things about Emily and all her work. I hired Emily originally just for the invitations, but after I saw the results of those, I hired her for the programs and our menu as well. The whole invitation suite was so beautiful and sweet and delightful -- many people called me to RSVP so they could keep the whole invite package, including the RSVP card! SO many people told me it was the best invitation they'd ever seen, and that really got me excited in the weeks before the actual wedding.

My favorite comment from a friend: "How to create wedding invitations so adorable yet classy no one can say no to the invite or ever doubt your love as a couple. Seriously such a lovely piece of mail to come home to!"

Emily's work was such an important part of the wedding and I am forever grateful for everything she did for us! I will also say: I recommend the gold foil lettering. Thank you Emily!

We couldn't have been happier that we used Emily for our wedding. She custom designed our invitation suite, escort cards, table numbers, church programs and welcome bag timelines - and everything was perfect. Emily was so easy to work with and was very accommodating on designs, edits and any preferences we had. She always got back to me with detailed responses and was willing to go above and beyond to provide exactly what we were looking for. When our invitations went out, we received calls/texts/emails nonstop from family and friends complimenting the work she did. The rose gold foil that she used was gorgeous and the overall quality was top notch. She even designed a custom vintage map for our envelope liner which added a special touch that we loved! Also, her prices were extremely reasonable. The feedback that we received from our guests on the day of the wedding was so great - everything complimented the main invitation suite beautifully. Working with Emily was a breeze, I cannot recommend her enough!!

Incredible stationery

My wife and I used Emily Rose Ink for our stationery suite for our wedding, and we can't recommend her highly enough! Emily is an incredibly talented artist who put together beautiful watercolor pieces for our save the dates, invitations, and day of event stationery. She and her business partner Sarah came up with great ideas to make our stationery feel fun and personal, including seed packet escort cards and a crossword puzzle in our welcome note. Above all else, Emily and Sarah were very easy to work with, and they were able to capture our vision for our wedding weekend in a more beautiful way than we could have imagined.

Let me down!

We hired Emily Rose in 2020 during the covid disaster wedding season. Of all vendors, she was the least accommodating to work with in the frenzy that came with canceled weddings and postponements. To this day, we still have not received work she owed us. Her designs are GORGEOUS, no doubt. I love her work! Which is why I hired her. She's very talented and creative. However, she lacks basic responsiveness and professionalism. PS - I asked her to use some of our spent money (that we never received anything for in return) on thank you stationery and there was never any follow-up. I am so disappointed.
