Services Offered

Three Little Words' experienced team of graphic designers and illustrators offers designs with an aesthetic that combines a clean, modern sensibility with timeless production techniques like letterpress printing and hand-tied silk ribbon. They offer customized designs based off anything from their existing Collection, or can create original, Custom Designs for couples looking for something unique to their event.

From Save The Dates and Wedding Invitations to Day of Materials including Menus, Place Cards, Signage, Favors and beyond -- they do it all and love to help clients "brand" their weddings.

Initial consultations and proposals are always complimentary. The designer responsible for creating your stationery will remain in constant contact with you throughout the process. After booking, they share a project timeline and assistance with content for the items you ordered. Two initial drafts will be presented and up to three rounds of revisions are included in their pricing. Once the digitial design is approved, clients may choose to order a physical proof or approve the art for press. Printing and hand-assembly is provided by Three Little Words and your invitations will be safely shipped to you upon completion (or you may order their direct-to-guest mailing service and let them take care of sending everything from the post office).

Three Little Words firmly believes wedding invitations set the tone for the event, and would love to help you bring your wedding to life on paper!

    Beautifully curated, crafted paper goods!

    Emily created an illustrated wedding map for us with a schedule of events on the backside. She was so easy and to work with - methodical and thorough with each step of the process. We couldn't believe how beautifully each element and location she illustrated totally came to life on paper! It made for such a wonderful keepsake for us and our guests, and the real bonus was that the schedule on the backside made sure everyone knew where to be and when ;) Thanks Three Little Words!

    We are currently working with Three Little Words for all of our wedding stationery. Before we made our decision I visited online retail paper websites and even went to a retail paper chain store for a quote. Working with a paper artisan like Emily from Three Little Words can definitely be a little more expensive but her work is 150% worth it. Emily will work with your stationery budget to make you something beautiful to send to your guests. Her customer service is wonderful and she answers all calls/emails in a friendly and timely manner. She is an artist with a great design eye. She takes the bride/groom vision and turns it into beautiful paper products. Think about it, your save-the-date and invitations are the first correspondence and experience that your guests will have of your wedding. When done beautifully these things can set the tone for the kind of event you are planning. Like I said, I checked out the online retails and PaperSource..I was underwhelmed by the choices and the customer service.

    For busy brides, almost all of our meetings with Emily were over the phone or via email. This did not affect my ability to pick the perfect color for our envelopes etc...If something isn't clear over email, Emily is available by phone and she even offered to Skype!

    Emily designed a hand drawn, watercolor custom map save-the-date for our Sonoma, CA wedding. It was printed by Emily on some very lovely paper. Our beautiful, unique save-the-date got all of our guests super excited about traveling to Wine Country, CA for our wedding. We are currently designing invitations and day-of collateral for our wedding. We are super excited about the beautiful seating chart that she will create for our wedding.

    If you want to work with someone who takes her work and your wedding vision seriously AND can make super fun, original paper products then please consider Emily. Check out her website and Instagram for all the fun stuff she can do!!
