Lauren and Demian requested bright and airy designs that would remain classic for years to come. With guests arriving from out of town, it was important to let them know more about the area, so we wrapped their invitations in a custom map and sealed it with a monogrammed wax seal. Deckle edges and formal typography gave printed items old-world class, whereas gold painted animals sprinkled throughout the reception hinted at their love of adventure and their upcoming safari.

Kind words from the Mother of the Bride: “ There are so many details I never would have thought of, things that don't really cost more but have such a positive impact on the whole feel of the event. This has really made a difference for us in the whole wedding planning process.
It has been a pleasure working with someone else who really wants our event to be the best it can be! Alex helps get us all excited about each stage in the initial process as well as what is still to come . It has helped take the 'dread' out of the decision making process and let us just enjoy what we are seeing evolve.”
A custom crest for Chelsea and Nick drew inspiration from their personal lives and names, and complimented a drawing of their gorgeous Florida venue throughout their suite. Complimentary signage for their wedding day was created to connect the dots visually for their closest family and friends.

Inspired by vintage postcards and typography, this suite featured a custom illustration of their venue, and a preview of all the fun their guests were about to have. The venue owners permitted their grandfather’s painting of the grounds to be used as an envelope liner- the perfect compliment to a woodsy suite!

Kind words from Sanjay: “ While we loved most of Alex's examples - we weren't sure that any of them matched our vision for our stationery. We were hesitant, but Alex did an amazing job sketching out what we were looking for which gave us confidence that she was aligned with us!
We both feel like the final design is just 'so us.' That wouldn't have been possible with off-the-shelf stationery. It was super exciting to see our vision come to life. Plus we really felt like we had a trusted partner in Alex to navigate the complexities of etiquette, etc.
Above all else - we just LOVE the design she created. We keep both looking at it, excited about sharing it with our friends and family. We also appreciated Alex level of organization. Neither of us had any idea how messy this process can get and Alex kept us on task. We have a complicated wedding weekend and a large, global guest list and Alex managed the entire process flawlessly.
If we could design stationary again, we wouldn't hesitate to work with Alex. We will be recommending her to all our newly engaged friends!”
These highschool sweethearts needed a design that would commemorate their many years of love- something as sweet as carving your initials into a tree! With a celebration that overlooked the Hudson, their designs were meant to be the perfect amount of rustic and elegant.
