About

Celebrating 15 years in business!!

In 2017 we partnered with another local stationery store, Avant-Garde Impressions, to give our customers a wider selection of products, more appointment availability and top-notch customer service!

We carry hundreds of the most trendy and beautiful catalog invitations along with our own line of custom, handmade invitations and special occasion stationery. Our mission is to provide every client with beautiful, yet affordable paper goods that represent the overall aesthetic of their wedding or memorable occasion.

Experience

When I was planning my wedding almost two decades ago, I discovered the inventory for affordable invitations was limited. Shortly after, I began making paper goods for friends and family while working full-time. How Inviting! was born when I was on maternity leave, and has continued to grow and expand over the past ten years. In early 2017, I partnered with Avant-Garde Impressions and co-own a storefront and design studio in Worthington.

Services Offered

We provide clients with flexible, prompt, and high-quality services for all of their printed paper goods. Myself and my team of designers meet in-person with couples to create custom wedding stationary that is unique and reflective of their style.

Great quality and easy to work with

We used Avante garde for our Save the Dates, Invitations and Seating Chart. They were wonderful to work with. The quality of their work was spot on. Cassie is very talented and they take great care to make sure everything is exactly how you want it. They were also very timely is turning around the projects and easy to work with. I highly recommend them!

Incredible!

Avant Garde was a lifesaver for our wedding! When we exploring options for our signage/stationary, we were overwhelmed with the different styles, fonts, themes but worked to find how we could make it cohesive. Rather, our wedding planner suggested Avant Garde. Little can I say, all the worries & stress disappeared. Avant Garde created our stationary and signage just as we had imagined! The team was extremely fast, flexible, and incredible to work with. They even created Spanish wedding programs for us! We are so beyond thrilled with their work and lucky to have found them! Avant Garde is a MUST for wedding signage & stationary!

My go to for weddings or events!

After using How Inviting/Avant-Garde for my sister's wedding 2 years earlier, I knew I had to use them for my own wedding! They have hundreds, if not thousands, of examples for you to look at from which to get inspiration. That is years and years of exceptional service and satisfied customers! While it can seem a bit overwhelming and intimidating trying to narrow your selection down, they do an excellent job of figuring out what you are looking for and tailoring the examples they show you to better suit your style. They think of everything! From wording, the coloring, fonts, paper, etc. You think of something, and they will either have an example to show you or will know exactly how to execute your vision. I recommend checking them out as they will be worth every penny and then some!

Aleia and Cassie were great to work with! They communicated well and were very patient with me while I figured out what style I wanted. They are very mindful of your budget and will do their best to bring your vision to life without breaking your wallet. I used them to create my wedding invitations, my ceremony programs, and my seating cards. They stayed on top of communication and were quick to alleviate the one hiccup we had while printing. They produce quality work and can turn around projects in a very timely manner. My only regret is not using them for my save the dates! You will not regret using them!
