Extremely happy with your work!

Melissa did an amazing job from start to finish. She paid attention to detail and delivered beyond expectations. We had guests arrive last minute and she even created last minute art for us helped us navigate printing it while we were all the way in Hilton Head. Every detail was amazing and we will definitely use her again for future needs ❤️

Melissa creates MAGIC

Melissa designed our custom wedding invites and day-of stationary and we could not be happier with her level of creativity and service! Our wedding invites were absolutely beautiful and included a custom drawing of our venue that our guests LOVED. The invitations really set the tone for our wedding day and got our guests excited for the event. Melissa worked right along side our wedding planner to create custom day-of stationary that truly brought our wedding vision of "timeless Italian" to life. Melissa was so easy to work with and even fit in a few last minute printing requests that really elevated our day. All of the little details were so intentional and created a cohesive design throughout the entire venue. We would highly recommend Melissa to any couple seeking an experienced wedding stationer for their special day.

Crazy talented!

Melissa is a dream to work with! She knows how to turn words into a work of art. I especially loved how she was able to add a personal touch to our invitations - she took my aunt's handwriting and incorporated it into our stationary! I highly, highly recommend working with her!

Custom Wedding Invitations

I used Melissa for my wedding invitations (we got married last Friday!) From my first conversation with Melissa to the end product, she was so sweet and enjoyable to work with. I had booked Melissa about a year in advance of my wedding (this isn’t necessary, I’m just a big planner and with the pandemic wanted to make sure I locked up the vendors I wanted to use!)

Let’s be honest, when you think of custom invitations, the first thought that comes to mind is how expensive were these. I know that’s what I was thinking! But Melissa was so helpful with providing different options/solutions to help me stay within my budget and provided with me a timeline of the process.

As you can imagine, my original vision of my invitations changed over time and was a bit different from the end result. During this process, Melissa was so accommodating to the various changes I wanted to make and guided me with the font colors I wanted to use, etc.

I absolutely love my invitations and couldn’t have asked for a better person to work with. I would highly recommend anyone to use Melissa!!

Beautiful Wedding Invitations

Melissa was very accommodating and helpful with my wedding invitations - even with date changes and postponements. She knew what I was looking for and made any change I requested but was able to also provide me with professional suggestions. I am so happy to have worked with her!

Amazing experience from beginning to end!

I was super nervous about invitations because I needed them in Spanish and English and after struggling with our save the dates from popular made-to-order websites (which do not include bilingual options) I knew I needed to go the custom route. After getting quotes from quite a few vendors, Melissa stood out as the friendliest, the most creative, and absolutely the best value for what we were getting. She offers a variety of options to fit any budget and I never felt like she was upcharging me or trying to sell me on any extras. In fact, there were a few embellishments I did on my own and she didn't discourage me from DIYing it and instead offered to give me any tips and tricks if I needed them. She took our vision and our details and offered unique options that made us feel like she really listened and understood what we were going for. I'm also so grateful for her attention to detail especially when she was working with me closely to get the Spanish wording just right--a language she isn't fluent in but that she clearly put in effort to correctly represent. Working with Melissa was an amazing experience through and through and we highly recommend hiring her!

Highly Recommend!!

Melissa did an amazing job creating our invitation suite and day of stationary (ceremony programs, hotel door tags, and photo booth frame inserts) for our wedding! From our first conversation, I knew Melissa understood my vision for our wedding as she came up with great ideas for us. She had an amazing selection of semi-custom designs for us to choose from, which helped to manage our costs but still create invitations that were exactly what I had in mind. It was so nice to work with a local designer, who I could call or email directly and get a quick response. Anytime I asked Melissa for something, she was so positive and found a way to create it. I also have to mention how incredibly flexible she was with us, as we were navigating a number of changes to our original wedding plans due to COVID. For both our invitations and our day of stationary, we had a short window to revise the pieces to get them printed and Melissa did a great job managing the process to ensure we completed everything on time. Thank you Melissa!

Can't Thank Her Enough!

Melissa created all our wedding stationary for our big day, and everything turned out exactly if not better than how we envisioned it. We worked with Melissa on our Save the Dates, Wedding Invites, Wedding Programs, & Menus. We had a vision in our mind for everything and Melissa put it together with ease! She was so understanding with everything even with COVID. She suggested we wait to the last possible minute to print just in case our plans changed. Everything turned out so wonderful and the ease of having someone else handle designing and printing was a huge stress reliever. Melissa is wonderful to work with and has an amazingly creative mind. Everything she touches turns out absolutely beautiful. We can't recommend her enough!

Baby shower invites

Melissa was able to make my dream baby shower invites come true!! She was able to design perfect details from Toy Story to make our shower invites so personal for us! We're expecting a baby boy in the fall and have done a toy story themed bedroom, and the invites she designed perfectly matched our vision!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
