THE METHOD BEHIND‍ ‍THE MADNESS

Let’s talk logistics—

Delivery

invitation suites are assembled in-house and brought to USPS to verify the proper postage based on size, weight, thickness, and destination before heading out the door. you get to enjoy the experience without the paper cuts or stress.

Day-of details can be picked up, shipped directly to your planner, or personally delivered and installed on-site by yours truly, depending on the scope of your project. From the smallest paper detail to large installations, everything is thoughtfully handled so you can focus on enjoying your day.

01

Design Discovery

My creative process begins working closely with you and your planner to build on the overall design, first diving into your planner’s design deck to get a feel for the aesthetic direction. From there, I get to know you and your partner, your personal style, and the vision you’re bringing to life. We’ll explore how to create a cohesive look across every detail—and this is where we get to have a little fun brainstorming those unconventional, outside-the-box ideas you’re not quite sure how to pull off. That’s my favorite part

02

Custom Proposal + On-Boarding

From invitations to day-of details and everything in between, no two proposals are alike. It's about so much more than quantities. Printing methods, materials, textures, layers, and hardware are all carefully considered to bring each design to life. Every element contributes to the final aesthetic, production process, and overall investment. a contract and retainer secure your date and initiate your timeline.

all important information is gathered with a questionnaire and a shared drive sheet. this is a space for you and the planning team to keep your guest addresses, seating arrangements, bar and menu information, and all the wording to include for the day!

03

Design + Fabrication

Every card in your invitation suite and every day-of detail receives its own digital mockup. Each design is thoughtfully developed with dimensions, color palettes, and materials in mind, taking into consideration your venue, the surrounding space, and the season. You'll have the opportunity to review and approve every detail before anything moves into production.
