Stunning Custom Invitations & Exceptional Service!

My fiancé and I first met Melinda from Melinda Cantor Designs at a Bourne Mansion showcase. Once we booked, we were excited to begin the invitation process—especially after learning she creates custom designs specifically for the mansion!

From the very first meeting, Melinda was attentive, organized, and truly open to hearing all of our ideas. After viewing her beautiful portfolio, we knew we wanted something slightly different, and she immediately embraced the opportunity to create something unique that fit our vision.

She took her time ensuring every element of our invitation suite aligned perfectly with what we imagined—even designing new pieces from scratch. Throughout the entire process, she communicated clearly, responded quickly to every question, and kept everything seamless and stress-free.

The turnaround time was impressively quick, and we received our invitations well before our mailing date. They are absolutely stunning and exceeded every expectation. We cannot wait for our guests to see them! Highly recommend Melinda to any couple looking for exceptional, personalized invitations.
