    Excellent Design and Customer Service from The Dandelion Patch

    We worked with The Dandelion Patch to design and produce a gorgeous invitation suite and day-of paper, with beautiful hand calligraphy to match, for our fall 2024 DC wedding. Owner and designer Jill was responsive, incredibly patient, and easy to work with and really helped us walk through our different design options. She has a terrific creative flair and suggested some beautiful options for pulling our invitations together with the right font, color, and presentation. The entire suite was incredibly elegant and matched our wedding space and design perfectly. We were delighted with the services provided by The Dandelion Patch, and Jill’s help made our event that much more stunning.

    Loved working with them!

    Dandelion Patch was the best to work with! We used them for escort card wall, menus, napkins, welcome sign, night before sign, and signature drink signs and we absolutely loved it all! We had done our invites already but Jill was so kind and I sent her what we had done and she was able to use that as inspo to keep all of our paper goods cohesive which was really important to me! I had a vision but not all words or tools to fully clearly explain, but through my photos and vague descriptors Jill & Team were able to come up with proofs that were exactly what we wanted! For the menus I had seen something I wanted where the name card and menu were the same on a tented foldable, they hadn’t done that before but that didn’t stop them and they were perfect!! The escort wall was everything we could have dreamed and more. We knew we wanted the wall to be a statement piece and double as our guest favor, but we were indecisive on what exactly we wanted. Jill was so patient with us, offering perfect practical guidance on how these ideals could be executed along the way. We settled on doing decks of cards and it was SO cool. They executed it perfectly and our guests still talk about it!!!! Loved working with Dandelion Patch and would recommend to anyone!

    Perfection

    We highly recommend The Dandelion Patch! Working with Jill was an absolute pleasure. She guided us through every step of the process, from Save the Date cards to wedding invitations and all the other printed details we needed. She was knowledgeable, patient, and attentive, ensuring each piece matched our vision perfectly.

    The quality of the printing was beautiful, with every detail thoughtfully designed and executed. Everything was always on time, with not a single error, making the experience stress-free and enjoyable. 5 stars +++

    Amazing Experience!

    Working with the whole Dandelion Patch team was a great experience! I grew up in the Northern VA area and always remember seeing the storefront, wondering if I would ever get to work with them! Once I finally got to wedding planning, I knew that invitations were going to be an area where I was going to have a lot of opinions, and Jill was so accommodating and creative when presenting us with ideas! She did a fantastic job of showing us a ton of options so we could make the best decision without any pressure. Jill was patient with us through draft reviews and helped to create a beautiful envelope liner that tied the whole suite together! I only wish I had worked with them for my save the dates! :)

    Timeless Designs

    We couldn't have been happier working with Jill and her team to produce our stunning wedding invitations and day-of stationary (specifically our seating chart, table numbers, signature cocktail signs, and ceremony and gift bag pamphlets). While I had a rough idea of the kind of design I wanted for our wedding invitations, Jill was indispensable in helping us to narrow down our options and turn a jumbled set of Pinterest screenshots into elegant invitations (complete with a beautiful sketch of our historic reception venue) that received endless compliments from our guests! She also succeeded in helping us realize our dream of an instrument-themed seating chart (we're band nerds) - no easy feat! I couldn't recommend Dandelion Patch more to any future brides looking to work with someone who provides such incredible ease of communication, efficiency in processing, and impeccable taste!

    Gorgeous products- guests raved about them!

    We worked with Jill and the Dandelion Patch team for our wedding invitations and some of our day-of stationary (seating place cards, menus). They provided a few style options based on our vision and were flexible and accommodating with our feedback. Highly-recommend!

    Great designs and excellent service

    I worked with Dandelion Patch for my April 2022 wedding and had a great experience. We asked for an acrylic escort chart and table numbers, designed to align with our color scheme and overall vibe. They were quick to respond and incorporate any feedback we had, even up to the week before the wedding. The final products turned out great-- would highly recommend!

    Love, love, love Dandelion Patch!

    We used Dandelion Patch for all of the paper for our wedding from save the dates to invitations to day-of materials, and I simply cannot say enough good things about them! From the first time we met, Jill was so helpful and extremely knowledgeable about timelines, etiquette, design, and more. I felt very clueless coming into the wedding planning process and Jill immediately put me at ease! I had only a few ideas about what I wanted and do not consider myself artistic at all, but Jill was able to run with my ideas and turn them into magic. I also used watercolors made by my mother-in-law for both our save the dates and reception centerpieces and Jill was so flexible about weaving this art into her own. Jill was able to incorporate things that were very meaningful to my husband and me (e.g. a DC map as the invitation envelope liner) and we got tons of compliments from guests. I was absolutely in love with everything Jill designed and can truly say that our save the dates, invitations, and various day-of paper products (welcome sign, table numbers, escort cards, programs, signage, etc.) were one of my favorite parts of our entire wedding process! Jill and Lindsay are both such a joy to work with - warm, professional, reliable, and amazing at what they do. They were extremely patient with my feedback and seemingly endless questions throughout months of planning and I am forever grateful. I always knew I was in good hands with them and I would highly recommend Dandelion Patch to anyone!

    So in love!

    I worked with Jill at the Dandelion Patch for our wedding invitations. They turned out better than I could have imagined. We chose a bit of a non traditional square design and I couldn’t have been happier with how it turned out. Jill has some great ideas about the design but she also did a great job of listening to my ideas and incorporating those into the final product. We received so many compliments on the invitations. They were a work of art and the best first impression. Jill and Lindsay were absolutely wonderful to work with. You will not be disappointed with the Dandelion Patch!

    Absolutely stunning! Could not be more thrilled!

    We had started following The Dandelion Patch on Instagram after meeting them at The Washingtonian Unveiled. We fell in love with their work and decided to go for a consultation. Our wedding invitations were out of this world! My husband and I are so thrilled with the work they did. We decided to do all of our wedding paper with The Dandelion Patch as well. We ordered our welcome sign, cocktail napkins, programs, welcome box inserts, menus, table numbers, and stickers. The result was breathtaking!
    Jill and Lindsay were wonderful to work with and made us feel so at home! We highly recommend The Dandelion Patch to future brides and grooms. They are creative and friendly and you will be glad you chose them for all your wedding paper needs.

    They were so helpful and everything turned out perfect!

    We worked with Dandelion Patch for our invitations and our day of paper. They were very helpful as we tried to narrow down our design and made sure it was cohesive through all of our products. They were also super patient with all of our questions and comments through the design process. We had a late breaking print error with our menus, since it was so close to the wedding date, they offered to attach our wax seals and even met us at home to pick them up. We would definitely recommend working with them!

    Love all of our stationery!

    We absolutely loved our invitation suite and save-the-dates. They created a sketch of our venue for the save-the-dates that we were then able to use for other day-of stationery to pull together our theme. The quality of the paper and printing was excellent and they were extremely knowledgeable throughout the design process and helping to achieve the overall look I wanted for our stationery.

    We absolutely loved our wedding suite and loved working with Jill and the rest of the team at the Dandelion Patch! They brought our vision to life and made it even better than we expected.

    Super responsive and everything I could have dreamed in an invitation!

    I worked with Jill on our invitations and I had no idea what I was looking for on our first visit! I brought my dad with me and Jill waked is through all of the options. She was so patient with all of our questions, and was amazing throughout the entire proofing process. When we got our first proof, I literally had goosebumps. Once we got our invitations and addressed envelopes, I realized that I had made a major mistake and somehow messed up half of the zip codes on the list I sent to Jill! Her and Lindsey, the owner, were so quick to respond and fix MY mistake without any question! I was already in a time crunch, and their responsiveness wowed me!
    Our invitations were so incredibly beautiful, everyone is still commenting on how much they love them! I would absolutely recommend the Dandelion Patch to anyone looking to have a memorable and completely beautifully personalized wedding invitation!

    Amazing selection, awesome team

    We loved our in-person session custom-designing our invites with Allison! She was super helpful and flexible, and also was very responsive throughout the process. When my mother was picking up our day-of paper, we ran into a snag with our wedding favor box size and the team went above and beyond to help my mom out on the spot and make sure we were happy with the way everything looked together. As for the invites themselves, we love them so much that we are getting them framed!! Couldn’t have asked for more.

    We had our thank you cards made at the Dandelion Patch. But I so wish we had found them early enough to do our entire wedding. The new owner Lindsay is incredible...creative, super responsive and awesome to work with. And her designers are fantastic. We couldn’t recommend this team more highly!

    I worked with Allison for my wedding invitations, she listened to what my wants and needs were and made great recommendations that made the design and proofing process simple and stress free. During my appointment, the owner Lindsay came out and introduced herself and made me feel so welcomed. The invitations arrived on time and they look gorgeous!

    We used The Dandelion Patch for our invitations and they came out absolutely stunning. I was so in love with them when they were delivered! At their showroom they have lots of inspiration and were extremely helpful. I was able to go through many different types of invitations to focus in on what I liked (and didn't like) and then the consultant presented me with several choices that fit that style/vision at my price point. I really appreciated that they were respectful of my budget and I didn't feel any pressure to spend more than I had said I was comfortable with. The staff at Dandelion Patch is very knowledgeable on all things paper and their experience was definitely a difference-maker for us in choosing our paper goods vendor.

    We designed and ordered our invitations with Dandelion Patch and we were sooo pleased with the outcome. They were very responsive and helpful with everything. We received our invitations fairly fast and were truly in love with them! Our guests complimented our invitations even the day of the wedding. I recommend them to anyone because I am sure that they will have just what you're looking for and if for any reason they don't, they will work with you to create the perfect piece. Thank you Dandelion Patch!

    What a fantastic shop that we were so lucky to find! We worked with Morgan and were impressed by her flexibility, creativity and professionalism. She helped us design our wedding invitations, reception cards, thank you notes and table numbers. She made every design possible (from having a specially designed mountains on the background of our table numbers to a certain color ribbon on our wedding invitations). The Dandelion Patch was always on point, and really helped make our wedding perfect. Thank you!

    I used The Dandelion Patch for my daughter's wedding invitations, RSVP cards, envelope printing and escort cards and menus. The finished product was beautiful, exactly what I wanted, I received so many compliments! Becca took care of us and all our paper needs for the wedding and she was wonderful to work with: responsive, patient, gave me advice on how to address the envelopes, we made some changes to the ink color on the menus and everything came out perfect! The quality and the service they provide is first class. I would go straight to them if I had to do it all over again.

    I used the Dandelion Patch for my wedding invitations, programs, and menus. They turned out amazing - our guests and husband and I were impressed with everything! As I was planning my wedding from Germany, most of our communication was via email, and they were amazing! They even created a custom logo for my husband and I which was perfect! They were quick to answer all my questions and were patient with me with changes/updates/crazy ideas, etc. I highly recommend them!

    This is not only the cutest stationary boutique, but the Dandelion Patch's quality and service live up to your first impression. I worked with Cathy on our invitations and printed collateral for the wedding day.

    Cathy was an absolute delight and was extremely accommodating. My mom and I only had a faint idea of what we were looking for, so Cathy really walked us through the process and the selections. Our invitation (by William Arthur) was pure and utter elegance. I received such positive feedback from our guests, many of whom said it was the nicest invitation they had seen!

    Cathy also helped us print customized collateral in-house. We worked together to design escort cards, hashtag signs, the dinner menu, and table numbers. Again, pure elegance! The Dandelion Patch design team is extremely talented.

    I am as big of an online shopper as the next person, but for something as important as my wedding day, I knew I wanted personalized attention from a local boutique--and I recommend you do the same and work with The Dandelion Patch (and Cathy!).

    We have loved working with the Cathy and Becca from the Dandelion Patch for our wedding invitations, programs, escort cards, and menus. All of our wedding items turned out beautifully and are very high quality. Yes, it may seem expensive but once you receive the items that you order from them, it is worth every penny that you pay. Not only that, but we have received so many compliments on our wedding invitations from the quality of the paper used, the feel, and the design. If you are looking for a wedding invitation or day of wedding items vendor, this is the place for you and be sure to request either Cathy and Becca because they truly are fantastic to work with. Just a heads up that if you are wanting to work with Dandelion Patch in Northern VA, they aren't on Church Street anymore. Their new location is on Tyco Road in McLean.

    Location: 1663 Wisconsin Avenue NW, Washington, DC 20007:
    Being from out of town, we really wanted to use some of the best local DC vendors. The Dandelion Patch fit the bill. We loved the shop and everyone there was so helpful. We didn't have a design in mind, but the Dandelion Patch was able to help us find the perfect combination of modern and classic.

    Invitations was something I didn't mind spending a little extra money on since that sets the tone for your wedding, and I'm very happy with every penny spent here! I worked mostly with Leah at their Georgetown, DC location, and she was very helpful and also very patient. I found out very quickly that there were WAY more options than I was aware of when it came to choosing invitations, and Leah was extremely patient (which I was very grateful for!) and helped point me in the right direction after hearing about my wedding style. I had invitations, menus, place cards, and programs ordered through Dandelion Patch. They all coordinated with each other and they were BEAUITFUL! I received lots of compliments on my paper goods for the wedding. I will certainly use them for other events given the opportunity!

    Dandelion Patch completed our Save-the-Dates, wedding invitations, place cards, menus, and signs. There are so many options, so it is necessary to have guidance. The team at the Dandelion Patch provide guidance and valuable suggestions. I appreciated the willingness to also work with me on reviewing several different styles in various price ranges. There was a point in which I was unhappy with the outcome of my wedding envelopes. Dandelion Patch gained my trust by replacing my envelopes. As a result, I felt comfortable and confident the menus, place cards and reception signs would be beautiful. I was not disappointed! They came out perfect, and the team was super responsive on a fast turnaround. Thanks!!

    I cannot say enough great things about Lindsay, Erin and the team at Dandelion Patch in Vienna. They did all of our paper for our wedding and it all came out beautifully. They also were very accommodating in working through some last minute changes and ensuring that everything was ready on time. I highly recommend them!!

    I found this little gem in my quest for wedding invitations last February and had a wonderfully pleasant experience. Ali made my wedding invitation experience a fun, personal one - not some stressful chore. She sat with me patiently as we went through book after book of invitations, sharing her expertise and explaining all the different types of printing (flat printing, thermography, etc). Even though I love invitations I'm a relative novice about the ins and outs. I just know what I like/what looks good! After I picked my invites, I went back a second time to order them. Ali helped me with the invitation wording and etiquette side of things, which was really reassuring. She made sure I got a 10% discount on my invitations since I ordered 6 months in advance of my wedding. When it came time to pick them up, they looked exactly as I pictured. They were perfect! I had so much fun with them I went back a third time to order my ceremony programs. Definitely check them out, they don't disappoint!

    As someone who works in the event and catering business, I knew from day one where we would be getting our wedding paper from. And we were not disappointed. After all, it is the wedding invitation that sets the tone for the entire occasion.

    "The most beautiful invitation I have ever seen!" From the moment guests started receiving our invitations, we received countless calls, texts and in person conversations. EVERYONE commented on the beauty and quality of our invitations. We are still in awe of how beautiful they turned out.

    We loved working with Lindsay, Erin and all of Team Vienna. Lindsay was extremely helpful and responsive when deciding on our invitations and throughout the proof process. When it came to day-of-paper, we were able to use Dandelion's in-house design team (whose pricing is very competitive and reasonable) to help match the look and feel of our invites.

    Thank you DP! Looking forward to working with you ladies again down the road.

    Loved my experience with The Dandelion Patch (in Georgetown). I decided to go with a design for my invitations, but the original invitation-designer was having trouble getting the order processed and placed in time. The staff at Dandelion Patch helped me customize my order with another invitation designer to get the exact look I wanted in just a few weeks. It was a great experience and my invitations were perfect!

    I worked with Casey at the Reston location. We wanted something very particular, yet simple clean classic, (thick navy border printed to the edge of the invitation) and none of the books had it! Didn't stop Casey - she found a company who would do it - Crane - and it was within our budget. We've recently sent the invitations out and we're getting tons of compliments. Thanks!!

    I recently used Dandelion Patch to design and print my Save the Dates, wedding invitations, custom bridal party luncheon invitations, custom rehearsal dinner invitations, escort cards, thank you cards, itineraries for welcome bags, and ceremony programs. I also used the DP Design Studio to print the addresses on the envelopes for our Save the Dates and invitations. I was absolutely thrilled with the final product. All of our wedding paper was cohesive and absolutely beautiful. All the staff at DP was so professional and helpful and they went above and beyond to have our products ready for pick up when it was the most convenient for me.

    For us, we knew we wanted classic engraved invitations with traditional fonts. Ali of the Gtown location helped us find the perfect invitation suite from William Arthur with matching thank you cards. For the rehearsal dinner, bridal party luncheon and other wedding day paper, the DP Design Studio did a fantastic job creating something unique and custom for us. Our guests have continued to rave about how beautiful our paper products were and we really think they added so much to our special day.

    For the quality and custom design we believe Dandelion Patch was very reasonably priced and the staff was always willing to brainstorm ideas to help us stay in our budget. I would highly recommend DP for any bride to be!

    I worked with the Dandelion Patch in Reston, Virginia for my wedding invitations. They spent a lot of time going over wedding invitation etiquette and helped me word my invitations perfectly. They were cognizant of budget and were happy to price out a few options for me. The proof process was easy and the team was very responsive via email. I also had my envelopes addressed by the team. The invitations came in on time and I was so happy with them.

    I worked exclusively with Lindsay on my invitations, thank you notes and favor cards (Bella Figura). I had my heart set on a specific design with gold foil, but also had a budget. Thanks to Lindsay, we figured out a way to get the foil I loved and stay in a reasonable budget. She was patient, meticulous and most of all, kind!
    Dandelion Patch also did my programs and menus - mimicking the design on my invites. They did a great job.
    Everything was delivered on time and as promised.

    Heidi who is the owner of the company is a highly energetic classy lady - she must run on some super charge! She expertly guided us into choosing the prettiest invitations in a very short time span, and her friendly youthful crew was as amazing as her - they got everything to us ahead of time even when there was just one month total to work with. They contacted us the minute everything showed up, they were very conscious of the deadlines, and very well trained in excellent style. My invitations and announcements and all the other printed work I wanted came out gorgeous, I was very, very happy with it. Choose the Dandelion Patch every time over any other vendor and you will never regret it

    Dandelion Patch did all of our "paper" - save the dates, invitations, escort cards, programs, etc. Lindsay, the store manager in Vienna, is absolutely amazing. I thought I knew a little bit about this stuff, but Lindsay is in a class by herself and will help you with everything. Given that your invitations set the tone for your wedding, Lindsay is fantastic about showing you how a different kind of paper can change the tone. She'll help with wording, addressing, the whole nine yards. Everything was absolutely PERFECT - no mistakes - and on time. I cannot say enough good things about Dandelion Patch - I would definitely recommend them to my friends!

    I worked with Laura at the Dandelion patch in the Vienna location and she is INCREDIBLE!!! I believe she has since moved to the Georgeotwn location. She was able to make my vision come true and created the most beautiful wedding invitations. She was a huge help during the process and because of her we used Dandelion Patch.

    Dandelion Patch in the Georgetown location helped me create unique ceremony programs. We had significant time constraints with how quickly the wedding was coming up, and the company truly pulled through. They were quickly able to translate my ideas to a workable product and easily took suggestions to tweak the existing product to make it perfect. They even left room on two sides for me to attach personal letters written between my husband and I for one another. It wound up being a beautiful tri-fold and it definitely added a personal touch to our Catholic wedding ceremony.

    I actually went to the Georgetown location so this review is for that location..
    I had seen them at two bridal shows in the area and decided to go with them after looking at reviews and their displays and am so happy I did. We ordered invitations(and inserts), menus, escort cards, table cards, and thank you cards from them. The customer service is great no matter who you get on the phone and their selection is huge and enough for every taste. We originally worked with one girl(whose name escapes me) but did the majority of the work with Jonathan in the end. He was fantastic to work with and would always follow up with emails or phone calls. My one recommendation to brides(or grooms) who work with them is read everything VERY carefully. We didn't have any misprints but we didn't realize our thank you cards would take a full 4 weeks to print. Also? Order early. Their printing turn around at the Design Studio is lightning fast! Our invitations came in late(at no fault of the Dandelion Patch) and the Design Studio had everything printed and ready for pick up the day after they received them. If you need invitations or any printed goods definitely check out the Dandelion Patch!

    We started using the Dandelion Patch in Vienna for our wedding invitations....and after how beautiful they came out and how seamless the process was, we ended up continuing on and working with the Dandelion Patch for our wedding programs, escort cards and meal cards. We were extremely happy with everything and would use their services again in a heartbeat. If you use them, make sure to ask for Penelope. She was AMAZING to work with, super knowledgeable, and very patient when I became overwhelmed with the seemingly endless choices that go into choosing a wedding invitation.

    The Dandelion Patch did a great job with our placecards and table names! So much so that everyone loved them at the reception. This store also helped design the perfect invitation (we ended up going directly through Crane) and did the calligraphy for the invitations (both printed and hand done). The staff are so pleasant - we love them - and this truly is high quality stationery. As someone who loves writing letters...this is now my go to store and I am thrilled they were a part of my big day.

    It was so such a good experience working with the Dandelion Patch. They really listened to what I wanted for my invitations and were so knowledgable about the huge number of options their store offered. I primarily worked with Caitie who was an amazing delight. She was responsive in e-mails and never missed a beat with making edits to our proofs during our many back and forths. I wouldn't hesitate going to them again for any other paper needs I need in my future. Definitely a great store with a vast array of invitation looks!

    The Dandelion Patch provided invaluable advice throughout the planning process. I relied on the kind staff to help me design, review, and print my wedding favors, invitations, programs, menus, thank you cards, etc. Melanie and Claire were fantastic!!! A definite 5 stars!!

    Super responsive and helpful, with a wide selection. I had a Catholic/Jewish wedding and Lindsay picked out a previous program that she thought would be helpful for us, and it totally was! Otherwise I would have had no idea where to start. They were great, and we ended up doing everything (invitations, programs, menus, escort cards, etc.) through them.

    We did all of our wedding invitations at the Dandelion Patch M St location. Wizzie was so helpful in helping me design the perfect invitation at the right price point on a fairly tight schedule. I really wanted letterpress and she was able to assist us in designing a custom invite. We had one in-person meeting and did everything else over phone and email. She was very helpful.

    Dandelion Patch also took care of addressing all of our envelopes (we did printing instead of hand calligraphy). There was a miscommunication and the addresses were not complete in time. I called the store to discuss and the staff stayed late on a Saturday night to print everything off for me so that everything could be in the mail Monday morning.

    Dandelion Patch was lovely to work with and the invitations were gorgeous. I would definitely recommend working with them for your wedding invitations.

    I enjoyed working with the ladies at The Dandelion Patch to help me select unique and creative invitations to send to my wedding guests. They worked with me for hours to select the perfect ones. I would highly recommend making an appointment to see for yourself!

    I cannot say enough good things about working with Caitie from the Dandelion Patch in Reston, Virginia. From the first appointment through the mailings, Caitie has been a true professional, excited to be part of my wedding and absolutely on schedule. When we began, I told Caitie that I loved the thicker papers and letterpress invitation style, but was a bit put off by the prices I was seeing. She immediately got creative and we actually picked a textured paper with a flat print that looked just as beautiful as a letterpress invitation (and was a fraction of the cost). After choosing the design, I commented that as my fiance's and my wedding was outdoors in a garden space I had thought some sort of earthy-touch to the wedding invitation would be pretty. Caitie immediately deployed to look for different materials to include twines, raffia to see what might look best with the invitation. We picked a twine and Caitie offered to hand tie every invitation (after installing the envelope liners) and picking up stamps for all of the internal envelopes. As a final touch, Caitie went to the post office with my invitations, had them weighed and purchased the appropriate stamps for the whole set. Truly, the professionalism and above-and-beyond attitude Caitie displayed through this process should leave no question that the Dandelion Patch is the way to go for invitations within any budget and style.

    We planned our wedding in three months, and Dandelion Patch was great to work with to ensure we got our invitations selected & out in time for the event. The staff was amazing to work with, providing guidance on selection of invitations and timelines. Even though we were late to meet dates Dandelion bent over backwards to produce everything on time. The invitation selection was amazing - everything to meet your personal style. Excellent staff and selection.

    This review is for the Georgetown location. I ordered all of my invitations, menu cards, thank you cards, and calligraphy from the Dandelion Patch. I worked primarily with Jonathan, Allison, and Penelope, all of whom were absolutely fantastic. I found the invitation ordering process to be a bit overwhelming, and the Dandelion Patch group guided me through the whole process, including a variety of etiquette questions. They were very patients with me, particularly given my last minute additions to the calligraphy list. All of my invitations, cards, and calligraphy were beautiful, and I would use Dandelion Patch again for any invitation or announcement printing.

    The Dandelion Patch is Phenomenal. I got all of my printed materials for my wedding from the Dandelion Patch, this included: save the dates, house warming invitations, engagement party invitations, bridal shower invitations, wedding invitations, wedding thank you notes, bridal shower thank you notes, bridal shower menus, wedding menus, wedding place cards, wedding escort cards, wedding ceremony programs, wedding reception programs. All of the staff at the Vienna location were excellent. They made sure that all of my wedding materials met our expectations. I will be using the Dandelion Patch for all future life events and recommend them to anyone who needs printed materials for any special occasion.

    I went to the Dandelion Patch in Vienna, VA. My fiancé and I were living in New York planning our wedding in Washington, D.C. I was in town one weekend and popped in to see what The Dandelion Patch had to offer. I initially worked with Brooke who was great! She was very helpful and very patient while I poured through all the invitation books until I found a style I really loved. In fact, it was a pleasure to work with the entire staff. They were always readily available via email and phone so we were able to address all my questions and proof our invitations without any delay in our printing process. Our invitations turned out beautifully! We even used Dandelion Patch to print the addresses onto the envelopes. This was well worth the cost! We got a lot of compliments from guests about how lovely our invitations were. One of our guests even gave us a framed copy of the invitation for us to keep. Wonderful staff, wonderful service and wonderful selection. I highly recommend them!

    I used the Dandelion Patch in Vienna for all of my paper products (Save the Dates, invitations, thank you notes, menu cards, table seating cards, programs and monogrammed napkins). I can not say enough about how wonderful they made each step of the process. Although I worked primarily with Lindsay each person that I dealt with was extremely knowledgeable and professional. I had a general idea of what I wanted for each item and they took the few words that I used and helped me find perfect matches. The finished products were all stunning (particularly the invitations, programs and menu cards). They kept my name on file and called me when it was time to make the next appointment to pick out the next set of items. That was invaluable since it was one less thing I had to remember to call about! I will definitely use them again for any paper needs I have!

    I used Dandelion Patch for my invitations, programs, and menu cards. They had a HUGE selection and their staff is very helpful, friendly, and responsive. I was a little overwhelmed during the beginning of the invitation selection process because there were so many options and so many books to look through, I wasn't exactly sure what I wanted, and I was thinking, "This seems like a huge decision, yet it's a piece of paper that everybody is going to throw away in the end." The staff was really great in calming my feelings of being overwhelmed and quickly helped me to narrow things down and figure out what look I was going for. They have a great variety and selection of unique vendors to choose from, and lots of different options and styles to fit exactly the look you are going for. (Variety of colors, fonts, papers, designs, layouts, etc.) Once I selected my invitations, I was able to go back and forth several times in terms of perfecting the layout, content, and design - They provided really great proofs via email. I ultimately ended up loving my invitations and was so glad I used Dandelion Patch.

    After seeing the Dandelion Patch at various bridal shows and having my husband pick out the same design they displayed at each event, we decided that they were definitely the choice for us. It was really easy to set up an appointment with them and they offered help with the entire process of finalizing our invitations. They provided us with wonderful and efficient service as well as a great price for a high-quality product. We heard lots of good things about our invitations, so we knew we made the right choice!

    We went to the Dandelion Patch in Leesburg, VA. We worked with Samantha and she was great. All of the invitations were great. We were very happy with the ones we choose. We were able to do a lot of communication via email, which was great. I was able to proof the invitations when I was out of town. Our invitations turned out great, the service was wonderful, and I would highly recommend them.

    The Dandelion Patch is ABSOLUTELY PHENOMENAL! We used them for save the dates, invitations, programs, name tags, separate invitations and even escort cards! They were amazing and we couldn't have asked for better service.

    Everything was delivered in a timely manner and the calligraphers they use are so talented.

    If you want personal, friendly and enthusiastic customer service, this is the vendor for you!

    The Dandelion Patch really helped ease my frustration, confusion, and overall fear of wedding invitations. This was the one detail about my wedding that made my stomach turn. So many choices, colors, ribbons, etc etc. The staff at The Dandelion Patch were extremely professional, patient, and so very helpful with me and my invitation search. They communicated excellently with me and my husband and were proficient! The Dandelion Patch made the invitation experience less scarey and our invitations were perfect for our event! We will use them in the future for other events and announcements!

    These folks were (are) amazing! I had a very specific look in mind and Caitie made it happen! They designed our invitations from scratch with us on a Sunday for about 2 hours and made my fiance actually care about letterpress! Seriously, he scared me with that one, LOL. I still love to just look at them because they were so beautifully done. In fact we having it framed along with our Jumping Broom.

    I can't wait to go back for the next occasion!

    I was recently married and I used the Dandelion Patch in Vienna, VA for my Save the Dates, Wedding Invitations, Escort Cards, and Table Numbers. The staff at the Dandelion Patch was fantastic and were great in helping us to design our invitations. Everything was timely and really felt as though they were focused on us and our event. I would highly recommend The Dandelion Patch for other couples! Or anyone needing fabulous invitations for any event.

    We arrived at the Dandelion Patch in Reston Town Center in a little bit of a panic with regard to our wedding stationery. However, working with Cory put us right at ease. She never tired showing my family and I TONS of examples, and let us think over several options, come back and make minor adjustments to help me make sure the stationery "fit" my overall vision for the wedding. Cory is an absolute EXPERT about everything wedding, and she offered lots of practical thoughts and advice that really helped my mom and I figure out what we wanted. She even put up with my crazy dad with a smile on her face! ;) Cory, and the staff at the Reston Dandelion Patch, are so kind and professional. The prices might be a bit high, but when you are planning a wedding, the old adage is true...you get what you pay for. And we feel totally happy with everything we did with the Dandelion Patch. And Cory, thank you soooo much...you were truly a God-send to me and a guiding light throughout the planning process.

    We worked with the Dandelion Patch in Vienna for our wedding invitations. We were immediately impressed by the knowledge of the staff.

    At our scheduled appointment, we worked one-on-one with Penelope. She was very professional and helpful, listening to our thoughts and finding the right invitations choices for us. The best part of ordering from Dandelion Patch is that we were able to take care of the wording and proofing via email. We live just north of Philadelphia, but the wedding was in Alexandria. It was very helpful to not have to travel down to NOVA every time something related to the invitations had to be done.

    Our invitations turned out GORGEOUS! We even used Dandelion Patch to print the addresses onto the envelopes. This is well worth the cost! We got a lot of compliments from guests about how lovely our invitations were. One of our guests even gave us a framed copy of the invitation for us to keep :)

    The Dandelion Patch has the best selection of elegant invitations in the D.C. area. I am so pleased with how ours turned out. What I love most about their store is that they have such a great selection of gifts, as well. My husband and I had no trouble finding a design that we both loved and we got so many compliments from our guests on how beautiful the invitations were.

    I purchased my invitations from the store in Reston and I could not be happier with the results. I walked in having absolutely NO idea what I wanted and a very helpful woman named Erica saved me. Throughout the ENTIRE process she was so helpful and friendly. Our invitations were gorgeous. I had a coworker make fun of me for spending so much effort on invitations, but when he received his he said 'wow, those are seriously beautiful'.
    The people at Dandelion Patch are true professionals and you will not be unhappy with what you buy there. I wish I could give 6 stars!

    The folks at the Dandelion Patch are fantastically helpful and wonderfully responsive. We had an idea for something untraditional and they quickly applied their expertise to our style and made the process of ordering and sending our invitations unbelievably easy. The prices were very reasonable to start with, but the value was magnified dramatically by their helpfulness. We went in once to make our selections and they're printing up our envelopes, assembling our enclosures and sending out our invitations all without the slightest delay or inconvenience. Could not be happier with the experience and very highly recommend the Dandelion Patch.

    I went to the Vienna location and had a wonderful experience. I poured through practically every book they had it seemed, but it was in large part because I wasn't sure exactly what I was looking for. They were extremely helpful in pointing me to invitations that were in my price range & along the lines of what I thought I was looking for. They also worked with me to help make the entire package within my price range. I ended up using a very small vendor that produced great quality invitations. My husband and I are both very happy with our end product and how smoothly everything went. They were also very patient with me (I think I went back there 3-4 times before finalizing my invitation selection).

    I had them do the in-house printing for the envelope addressing, brunch invitations, and place cards. They did a wonderful job on all those items. They also were very timely. Everything was complete within the timeframes that they gave me. I also used them for ordering specialty place card holders for the rehearsal dinner, personalized napkins and stationary. Again, they were very helpful and I found great items that were exactly what I was looking for and in my price range.

    I ordered engraved items from them for my bridesmaids' gifts. They use local engravers & companies that do great work. I still go to them and order items on a regular basis. I have always been very pleased with their customer service and intend to keep going to them when I am looking for that special gift or stationary products/invitations.

    I simply cannot say enough about the quality, professionalism, and responsiveness that I experienced working with the Dandelion Patch. I was thrilled with my wedding invitations and matching stationary. Dandelion Patch also did the envelope addressing, created my wedding "rehearsal" BBQ invitations, and prepared my ceremony program. I plan to be a long time customer of this wonderful firm.

    I could not have been more pleased with the quality of the service and products at the Dandelion Patch. We met the owner at the Dulles Bridal Expo and immediately appreciated her low-key, no stress approach. We followed up at the store in Reston and the staff couldn't have been more helpful as we designed our own custom invitations in blue and green. Their printer is also extremely helpful and worked with us until all the details were just right. They never made me feel like I was being a bother as I fretted over details and everything arrived on time and in perfect condition. Their selection is incredible and if they don't have what you want, they will help you find it or make it. You can't do wrong with the Dandelion Patch!

    I was reluctant to try the Dandelion Patch in fear that it would cost an arm and a leg. However, it was the best decision and I am so pleased we worked with them for our invitations. Great selection and reasonable pricing. Most importantly our invitations were amazing. Very helpful staff and very knowledgeable. We went to the Vienna location and I would recommend them to other brides and grooms.

    We went to the Dandelion Patch on a recommendation from some friends, and were very happy we did! We explained that we wanted something a little quirky and not the standard classic invitation, and they went right to this one book of a particular designer, and pointed out a few invitations. We managed to pick out an invitation along with the final colors, layout, etc in under an hour - MUCH quicker than I'd ever anticipated. I'd highly recommend them to someone who has an idea of what they'd like, but aren't exactly sure, as they are really good at filling in the little gaps! :)

    I worked with The Dandelion Patch at Reston Town Center for my daughter's wedding. They were amazing to work with. They have the best selection of invitations and they cover all price ranges.

    We ordered all of the wedding stationery (invitations, place cards, programs, napkins) from them. The staff is very knowledgeable and extremely helpful. They offer many good suggestions and will guide through every step. The staff is very patient and will work with you to make sure that you get just what you want.

    Their printing services are wonderful. Lucas is very good and very easy to work with. I had them print the inner and outer envelopes of the invitations and Lucas did an amazing job. I highly recommend this service.

    The Dandelion Patch stands behind their work and they will go the extra mile to make sure that you are completely satisfied with your order. The staff is extemely helpful and polite. A great vendor to work with.

    We worked with the Dandelion Patch in Reston. The people there were great - I had an image that I wanted printed out on the front of a card to be used as our Save the Date and they were completely accomodating. They had a huge variety of stationary and gave great advice as far as what companies I should look into for the asthetic I was going for. Their prices were very reasonable and they were extremely responsive with proofs.

    We went to The Dandelion Patch in Reston Town Center. I think we must have gone back five or six times, since we weren't sure exactly what we wanted, and had trouble deciding on the perfect design with so much to choose from. They were endlessly patient and helpful. Our invitations were exactly what we wanted, and we got so may compliments on all of the wedding stationary. We also came in far under budget or waht we expected to spend, for really incredible quality.

    I ordered my wedding invitation with the Dandelion Patch, they were wonderful to work with... Mary helped me pick out all the little details that go into the invitation and was so much fun to work with. They also printed in house for me - the menu cards, programs and table numbers. They were able to mimic the look of my William Arthur inviations, down the the color, font and motif. I was very pleased with the end result and they were very flexible with some of my last minute requests and orders!

    The best part is that since its also a gift shop you can take care of some your other shopping while there... I got my junior bridal party gifts there while I waited :)

    The Dandelion Patch is THE perfect place for any invitations you're looking for. They recently provided us with our wedding invitations, and they were absolutely gorgeous! They were printed promptly and helped make our day even more special!

    This is another one- If I could rate a 10 I would! Nina & Nicole were just amazing people to work with.

    Nina- if you could dream it, Nina would take that and make it better then you thought (and incorporate ms. post's ettitquete rules as well). She was not pushy and didn't make you do anything you didn't. She simply perfected your dream into a masterpiece! My invites, programs, table cards, place cards turned out to be stunning! She worked with you to get more for your money!! Nina gave you personal attention! I think i changed my mind many times, and for I think 2-3 hrs- Nina sat there and brainstormed with us. NEVER complaining that we have been there for so long. She was right there with us working and we shared so many laughs and smiles!


    Nicole- The printer- AMAZING work! we had one slip up which was partly my fault, partly her fault- and low and behold she took ownership of it, redid it, and drove to my house to deliever it!!!! Talk about service! Nicole worked very hard to meet the deadlines, and met all with ease and poise.

    If you work with Dandalion you will receive excellent service, top notch advise and just an overall pleasant experience!!

    I don't recommend it- but when I was there, another bride and her mom came in, the bride said she needed 200 programs -- NEXT WEEK! Dandalion didn't complain or say no to her- they simply said OK- lets see what we can work with to create a beautiful program for next week!!!! I don't think you will/can find that anywhere else!!

    LOVE YOU GUYS!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I had the pleasure of working with Nina at the Vienna store. She was wonderful. She helped me find invitations within my budget that matched my Victorian wedding theme and colors. They were beautiful. I also had my envelopes addressed. What a beautiful job! Not only did the young lady do a perfect printing job, she also checked for proper etiquette in addressing the envelopes and she checked some of the addresses I provided her. This greatly reduced returned invitations. I would work with The Dandelion Patch again for any stationery needs.
