    The Best Designer!

    Ginger is an absolute joy to work with! She designed our wedding save the dates and our wedding invitations. For both designs, she seamlessly brought together our vision and her design expertise. She beautifully illustrated our venue and a number of other elements such as a map - which really helped set the tone for our guests for our destination wedding!

    Invitation must!

    Ginger brought my wedding vision to life when she designed our save the dates and our wedding invitations. I was blown away by her creativity and how well she understood the look I was wanting for the designs. I cannot recommend her enough! Plus the quick turnaround was amazing!

    Beautiful and unique wedding invitations!

    Ginger is a master of her craft. I had her create my Save the Dates as well as my wedding invitations for my beach wedding in Santa Cruz, CA. As soon as I saw her work on Etsy, I knew she had to create my invites! Her attention to detail, cute aesthetics, and quality is what sold me. My Save the Dates came out beautifully, the colors, and quality were stunning! When it came time to design and create my invitations, I was so nervous and paranoid about what information to include and how to make them look, etc. Luckily, all I had to do was pick the style I wanted and e-mail Ginger all of our wedding info and she took care of plugging in the information where she thought it would work best. When I received my first proof, I was blown away at how adorable they looked and she incorporated our wedding colors beautifully. Ginger worked tirelessly with me on last minute updates to the design, including some tweaks to the information we decided not to include on our invitations after all. After we received our invitations in person, I was mortified to see two spelling errors (one on our actual invitation and one on our RSVP card). I had been so busy worrying about the key and core info on our invites that I completely missed those two errors when reviewing and approving the final proof before printing. I quickly emailed Ginger to see if there was any way we could reprint those two elements and she agreed! She even gave us a discount on the reprint price as she claimed it was also her fault for not noticing those spelling mistakes. Relieved and satisfied was an understatement, I was so happy to hear that Ginger was willing to work with us and would only be charging a fraction of the invitation price! I highly recommend Serendipity Beyond Design for your wedding invitation needs, her work is stunning, unique, and cute. The customer service you receive is great from start to finish! Some other reviewers have complained about Ginger’s “lack” of communication or passive tone but I didn’t take it that way at all, she runs her own small business and judging by the intricacy of her work, she’s likely busy 24/7 (especially during peak wedding season) and doesn’t always have the time to type out lengthy emails to every client. As long as she communicates and follows up (something I’ve never had an issue with), that’s all I expected. Her work is worth every penny! Thank you for taking care of us, Ginger!

    Beautiful Watercolor Invite!

    Ginger was extremely responsive, gave awesome direction, and was awesome at giving me options. The invites were absolutely beautiful and we used the watercolor in other areas of our wedding.

    A Must Hire Vendor for Wedding Invitations!

    I received my invitations for our destination wedding in Tulum, Mexico 2 days ago and literally cried.

    Ginger, the owner, posted some photos before I received them and I was in aw. But seeing them in person... The quality of the paper, the color combination. The unique style. The overall presentation...

    They are STUNNING and the most beautiful and unique wedding invites I've ever seen if I may say so myself.

    Ginger was extremely professional, communicated along the way, and truly wanted to help design exactly what I wanted.

    But I didn't feel like I needed to know everything about design like I have with some other wedding invite designers before she could create a great design for us. As I shared some of my thoughts about what I wanted, Ginger sent me an example of a past client invite that was a great starting point for us to begin my own design.

    I told my fiancée I want to marry him every year just so we can get new invitations made!

    Of course he looked at me like I was crazy. 😳

    But I I will absolutely be ordering more paper products from this company!

    If you are in the market for a custom invitation and endless compliments, look no further! Serendipity Beyond Design was so easy to work with and our invitations turned out better than we could have ever imagined. So many guests asked us if we picked out the individual fonts and said that the invitation really set the theme for our outdoor Maine wedding along the coastline looking out at the ocean. We took an example of another invitation, mentioned a few illustrations and Ginger came up with a perfect finished product! Great quality and excellent outcome, thanks Serendipity Beyond Design!

    We worked with Serendipity Beyond Design to design our wedding invitations. They were better than I ever thought they could be - and they did such a good job customizing it according to our likes and the feel of our wedding.

    We got married at the Hemingway Home, so a picture of the house is on the invitation.

    Ginger was easy to work with. The turned the project around very quickly. I enjoyed working with them and the final product. We'll likely frame an extra copy of the invitation, because its that beautiful.

    Ginger is super artistic and passionate about her work and it shows in the quality. She is responsive, professional, accommodating, offered great suggestions, and worked within our budget. We ordered our save the date and wedding invitations/envelopes through her and our designs were perfect.

    I worked with Ginger from Beyond Serendipity on my wedding invitations. She had already created a vintage Hawaiian invitation that I loved and could be customized. I was able to order a sample invitation first to before I decided to work with her. The materials & ink she used are of high quality. Her website spells out the entire design to print process and has an extensive FAQ section so there are absolutely no surprises. She responded to e-mails promptly & sent proofs within the specified timeframe. The finished product was exactly what I wanted.
    Beyond Serendipity was professional, easy to work with and affordable especially if you have a small guest count. Thank you Ginger & the entire Beyond Serendipity team!

    Ginger was great to work with. She helped me creat the perfect save the date and invitation set that was beautiful! We got so many compliments on them! She was quick and willing to work with me to make the entire process go smooth and quick. I would use them again in a minute and recommend them to any friend of mine!

    Ginger and Kendra from Serendipity Beyond Design have been awesome to work with! They did our incredibly beautiful invitation suite --customization of a design she had on her site with a paper choice and colors to match ours. We got so many compliments --even before I'd seen the printed invites, I was getting calls and emails about how beautiful our invites were (Serendipity did the mailing to our guests directly--also huge!) :) I loved having a designer to deal with directly instead of some of the "big box" online sites --I ALSO loved that I could order 65 invitations instead of in 25-50 increments at some other sites--we saved money that way and were able to include additional features for the invites themselves. I'm currently working on the ceremony and reception suite with them, made to match our invitation theme and CANNOT wait to see them! They are easy to deal with and produce a beautiful product!

    I ordered Save the Dates and invitations from Ginger ..... and wow. The process was painless and she is highly responsive along with easy to deal with. The designs were spot on and she welcomed changes as well as feedback. The options available to her customers allows your creativity to run.

    There was a slight mishap with the number of individual items in the invitation suite that I ordered. I quickly shot off an email to her and she replied very quickly apologizing. She sent me the missing items and did not hesitate to send them overnight for me!

    I HIGHLY recommend using Ginger and Serendipity Beyond Design for your wedding stationary. We will be getting our thank yous from her to finish out the occasion as well.

    Thank you Ginger!

    P.S. The cost is reasonible ... I would do this again without a second thought.

    After finding our perfect wedding invitations on Etsy, I was a bit nervous to place an order sight unseen. However, Ginger was AMAZING! Our order had to be a rush because of my procrastination (soo many things to do in so little time) and yet she took the time to make sure each detail was absolutely perfect. Our invitations turned out stunningly beautiful. We thoroughly enjoyed the phone calls that came in from guests who just had to tell us how much they loved the "passports". The craftmanship and care that went into the invitations made them perfect for our event and I can't recommend Serendipity Beyond Design more! If you want beautiful and unique invitations, Ginger is definitely the best choice!

    Ginger with Serendipity Beyond Design is the best!!!!!!! She did incredible work on our wedding invitations, programs, menu cards and place cards. She was always very responsive and came up with the best ideas. She let us make customizations that went absolutely perfect with our wedding theme. I swear, with almost every wedding invitation RSVP card we received from our guests was a comment like "these invitations are so beautiful" "we love your invites" "these are so you" the invitations are so modern". I can't wait to work with Ginger again in the future! She does such amazing work and I would recommend her services to all future brides!!

    I got my AMAZING save the dates from Serendipity Beyond Design. I did everything via email and never felt disconnected from the process once! Ginger was really nice and patient when it came to walking me through the process of the design I wanted and just plain always on point! I never had to worry about where they were in the process because Ginger kept me updated every step of the way. The Save-the-Dates were absolutely beautiful and set the tone for my wedding perfectly. I've received nothing but compliments and WOWs form guests.

    For completely customized invitations you really can't go wrong with this vendor and the pricing is more than reasonable. I know that people seldom put pricing in reviews but, I will just so you know what great service and quality you'll be getting from Serendipity. I ordered 50 custom boarding pass save-the-dates which included the inner sleeve and ribbon, matte envelopes and guest addressing for only $244 and that included the design fee AND shipping. I'm planning a baby shower for a friend and definitely plan on getting the invitations from Serendipity. I really can't say enough great things about this vendor.

    Ginger OHara with Serendipity Beyond Design was incredible to work with. I fell in love with her product on Etsy and one particular "Save the Date" postcard featuring Ravello, Italy in particular. As were were getting married in Positano, another town on Italy's picturesque Amalfi Coast, and having our wedding dinner in Ravello, it was no wonder that I was drawn to her work. I had one particular picture that absolutely had to be used for our invitations/announcements. Ginger took that picture that had been taken by our wedding photographers Jerry and Jona Blackwell with Forever Photography in Austin, Texas, and turning it into the most beautifl invitation I have ever seen. We have gotten countless raving reviews of them and I couldn't agree more! I was so impressed that I actually asked Ginger to use the exact same template for a customized menu for our wedding dinner in Ravello and also our welcome/rehearsal dinner in Positano. Thank you so much for everything Ginger! Your work is truly first class all the way!

    Link to our invitation: http://www.etsy.com/listing/108084855/italy-destination-wedding-announcement

    I still can't get over how you were able to tansform the picture I had and honestly vision into this stunning card--I absolutely love it!

    Ginger is INCREDIBLE!!! I had a travel themed wedding and she made it all come together. She is so talented and her invitations set the tone for our wedding. She worked with us every step of the way and didn't hesitate to change every minor detail. Our invitations were passports and she walked us through the entire process. Yes, they were pricey but I swear they were worth every penny!!! If you can afford it, do not hesitate to spend the extra money. People raved about our invites. She also worked with us to create our table names and escort cards. She designed these from scratch to meet our theme. This was especially true for the escort cards, as I wanted mine to be little paper airplanes. She worked hard to design these and they were absolutely perfect!!! I adored working with Ginger and her professionalism and attention to detail is beyond compare. I never thought I would have been someone to care about the invites and those details but looking back, this truly helped my wedding come together. Thank you, Ginger, for everything you did to make our day unique and so special!!!

    I found this adorable little design outfit through a basic Internet search for vintage map invitations. (Vintage maps are just one of the designs this company offers.) They're based out of St. Louis, but as I live nowhere near there, we handled everything via email, which worked out perfectly. Ginger designed gorgeous vintage map invitations and incorporated our very specific needs, including two languages, two specific areas for the vintage map to cover, and matching the ink to one of our wedding colors. She was very responsive to my emails and finalized the proof in plenty of time to send it to me in the mail and for me to look it over before ordering. I got a ton of compliments on these creative and elegant invitations -- and best of all, they weren't too expensive! I highly recommend working with Serendipity. You won't be disappointed.

    we did a destination wedding in Ireland....
    Our invitations (passports, beautifully customized to us) were in a box with an RSVP card (as a boarding pass) with 2 luggage tags (personalized to the guest) and chocolates!!!
    They were such a smashing hit with all our invitees and really laid the foundation to the wedding itself ;-)
    Ginger is professional, punctual, and my family used her for their pre-wedding events - even the bachelor/bachelorette party invites!

    We loved our invitations from Serendipity Beyond Design! They offer lots of customization options, and were also very affordable. We had one minor mixup with our order, but Ginger really went over and above to make up for it and make sure we were satisfied. Can't ask for more than that! I would use them again in a heartbeat.

    Ginger and her team of super-designers were able to provide me wedding invitations that were customized to my husband and I, super fun, and a great price! I chose their vintage post card style for my invites and RSVPs, and Ginger provided a very specific worksheet to help me work out how I would like my cards personalized. She listened to everything down to the last detail. She was able to include a picture of the place where I met my husband and a few landmarks/symbols that our friends and family would recognize...it became kind of like a treasure hunt to find the fun little add-ons to the cards.

    These were no traditional wedding invites, which was perfect for what we wanted. We love to travel and the RSVP card highlighted our recent trip to Qatar, and Ginger was able to capture the spirit of that adventure and let us share it with out friends.

    They were incredibly responsive, and stuck to the exact timeline that was quoted to us for design, printing and delivery. This was a quick and easy transaction with a personal touch.
