I discovered The Gilded Mandarin here on Wedding Wire and was certainly not disappointed! I was excited to become her first client that she took on to do wedding invitations. After my initial conversation with Amanda on the phone, I knew that her careful attention to detail and eagerness to design invitations that coincided with our vision would be exactly what we wanted. Our wedding invitations were gorgeous - painted with soft watercolors and gold calligraphy. The addressed envelopes were my favorite, a signature design of hers. I loved these so much that I got in touch with her again last minute, two weeks before my wedding day, asking if she'd be willing to add custom calligraphy to my bridesmaid gift bags. She did this without a hitch and they turned out gorgeous also! I hope I get to work with Amanda again, would highly recommend her!
