Quality all the way around. Professional, great communication and everything created for our wedding was absolutely stunning

Mekala’s creations are stunning. Our guests were blown away, feeling like they’d been invited to the event of the year when they received our save the dates and invitations. Even the envelopes and vintage stamps were another level of awe. I want to frame one because they are so special and true keepsakes. Mekala was lovely to work with. She’s intuitive with her designs. She was so helpful, efficient and made the whole process easy and flawless. It became clear that Mekala takes a lot of pride in what she presents to you. That gives you the confidence that she will knock it out of the park. And she did!

I could not possibly be more pleased with our wedding invitations from Tie That Binds. In addition to the fact that they had a style that matched our personality, Mekala (whom we worked with) customized everything to our exact specifications. The invites came out perfectly! Seriously, I feel like I've gotten so much wrong in planning this wedding, this feels like the one thing I did right. Without exaggeration, we have gotten more positive feedback about our invitations than any other element of the wedding. The materials were classy, the design was edgy, the color-scheme was modern... I'm telling you, they were perfect. I won't be having another wedding, obviously, but I would HIGHLY recommend that anyone who wants to wow people with their invites should use Tie That Binds. I couldn't be happier that I did!

If you are in the market for any type of paper goods for your wedding, I cannot suggest Tie That Binds more! Mekala was absolutely incredible to work with, not only with her beautiful designs, but in her quick responses, and she even took a call at 8:30am on a Saturday when we had a shipping snafu the week before the wedding. We were over the moon with the finished product and want to keep them all in a frame or something because they are all so beautiful. Thank you so much, Mekala for helping to make our special day even more beautiful!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
