Sharon did an EXCELLENT job with our invitations and all of our wedding stationery! Everything was beautiful, well-crafted, personalized to us, and exactly what we wanted. She worked with us diligently and was quick to respond with mocks and requested edits. Would HIGHLY recommend!
Sharon was great! She was knowledgeable, thoughtful, and meticulous, and she helped us craft beautiful stationary for every aspect of our wedding. Sharon scheduled multiple one on one sessions with us and provided undivided attention and guidance to help us design our stationary. We couldn’t have asked for anyone better, and we highly recommend Sharon.
Sharon made all my wedding invitation dreams come true!! She took the time to sit down and discuss so many unique options we could do for my wedding, but ultimately listened to my vision and was able to create an invitation that fit us perfectly! You can tell Sharon takes pride in her work and attention to detail.
We wanted to use a small business instead of ordering my daughters wedding invitations on line and are very happy we did. Sharon gave our daughter choices and ideas and then designed invitations that were perfect. Friends even commented that the invitations were “very Annie”. The travel distance (east side/west side) and the cost was worth every minute and every dollar. I would highly recommend this small business.
Let's just say that Sharon is not only the best designer out there - but she also is so flexible and helpful! What a crazy year it has been and we are so grateful for her adaptability through it all. I could not imagine working with anyone else - and we live in CONNECTICUT! She is extremely creative and was able to design such fun telegrams for our 'postponed 1920s celebration' and in such a timely manner with what was available. We could not say enough positive things about her and you will never regret working with her. your invites will be fabulous, unique, and one of a kind!
If you are looking for invitations, thank you notes, all the above -- work with Sharon Donnelly! Sharon designed my wedding invitations and they were beautiful! She is creative, professional, organized, reliable, and extremely flexible. Because of COVID, I cancelled my wedding (which meant cancelling my invitations) and then re-planned a small last-minute wedding (which meant re-ordering invitations with ALL new event details). Sharon was patient and showed empathy throughout the entire process. As a bonus, she is located in the cutest shop in Rocky River! I highly recommend her!
Sharon at Cotton Ink was absolutely fantastic to work with. I was very meticulous and shopped a round a lot before choosing most of my vendors, but not so with Cotton Ink.
At the end of my first meeting with Sharon (pre-COVID), I knew I was in trusted and capable hands. Sharon took the time to get a sense of who my fiance and I were, what we were looking for in a wedding invitation, with the initial consult taking a substantial amount of time. From there, Sharon designed beautiful invitations and gave us several options to choose from. We actually ended up going in a bit of a different direction once Sharon gave us her options and I really appreciated the ability to have a choice. I really liked that everything about the invitations was bespoke and customized to my fiance and I. Sharon never tried to put a square peg in a round whole.
And when COVID threw everything into chaos, Sharon sat back and was super low pressure. Once my fiance and I got a game plan in place, Sharon re-designed the invites to take into account our small in-person ceremony for close family and our invitation to our other guests to watch the ceremony via remote means.
I am really so thankful that Sharon gave us space during the beginning of the pandemic and waited until I reached out to re-plan the invites. And I was even more thankful when Sharon was so accommodating in reworking them.
I want to add that I really appreciated Sharon's thoughts on etiquette and design. Sharon had opinions and shared them - but in a respectful manner that was not off putting and in a way that made clear she would design them the way we wanted, not the way she wanted. Basically, Sharon balanced artistry and client-service in a really fantastic manner and I thoroughly enjoyed working with her.
Sharon also was able to put together matching thank you notes, that will work as stationary my fiance and I can use even after the big day.
Finally, when it comes to doing the invites for our delayed reception (whether in 2021 or 2022) I know who I am going to hire for the invites. Thank you Cotton Ink!
Sharon was absolutely amazing to work with!! She made my dream invitation come to life while making the whole process stress free! I would highly recommend her timely and quality work to any brides.
Sharon was a dream to work with! She was extremely accommodating not to mention a creative genius! I had somewhat of an idea as far as what I wanted our wedding invitations to look like, however she was able to take my loose ended ideas and execute beyond our expectations. She worked with our crazy guest list and checked in consistently to see if we needed anything. I highly recommend cotton ink invites and would consider using them again for any upcoming events.
Cotton Ink should be at the top of your list for wedding invitation vendors! We used Cotton Ink for our Wedding Invitation Suite and Wedding Programs. Sharon provided us the highest quality service and was very professional and sincere in all of our interactions. She paid close attention to our personal style/wedding theme and delivered beautiful invitation suites and programs that matched perfectly. She goes out of her way to make sure you are getting exactly what you want at a very reasonable price while maintaining the highest quality. Sharon is also extremely responsive to all requests and modifications to your design to ensure prompt, on-time delivery. We really appreciate everything Sharon did to help make our day special and would recommend her to anyone searching for an Invitations vendor.
Sharon at Cottton Ink was AMAZING to work with! She somehow perfectly captured my vision for my wedding invitation suite when I wasn't even sure of what I wanted! Everything from the invitations to the programs to the table numbers and escort cards were gorgeous and unique to us. Some many of our guests commented on what gorgeous invitations we had. I would highly highly recommend Sharon. Her work is very high quality yet quick!
Sharon was so amazing to work with! We wanted very simple invitations with our wedding colors and Sharon was able to make them simple and classy! We really enjoyed working with her!
Sharon was wonderful to work with - she picked up on exactly the style and design that our out-of-town daughter was looking for! She always had everything ready for us when planned, and the finished work was just beautiful!
Working with Sharon was a walk in the park. She worked with us on every step of the way. She gave great advice and wasn’t pushy for us to do what she thought would work. Sharon worked with us on what we would have liked on the invites. She worked on an accommodation card, RSVP card and our actual invite. When we were ready to pick them up she went over how to pack them and what to use and not to use. She then contacted us after we sent them out to check on us. She offered place cards and other products as well. Sharon would be a great vendor for you to work with during your wedding planning.
Sharon is incredible! She was so patient with us when we were deciding on our invitations and very timely when I wanted to add something else. She spent extra time finding a font with a specific looking "J" and right away, I knew we made the right choice going with her! She will definitely go above and beyond for each couple she works with. She made our invitations one-of-a-kind and our family/friends keep raving about them!
Sharon was truly a joy to work with. Her designs are beautiful and she is incredibly helpful throughout the entire process. She made our beautiful wedding invitations and was always available and willing to meet or answer questions we had. I would recommend Cotton Ink to anyone, and already am planning to contact her for future events!
We had such a great experience with CottonInk, I highly recommend!! Sharon did our invitations along with all the signs needed for our wedding day. I purchased my own frames and she even put everything in them for me! Everything came out PERFECT. I am a very indecisive person and she took the time to make sure I got exactly what I was looking for. It was a pleasure working with her!
We wanted to take a moment to express our appreciation to and for the beautiful artistry and wonderful work that Sharon Donnelly, Cotton Ink, did for us when designing the invitation for our daughter’s wedding and all the other collateral materials that she created. Sharon sat down with us before undertaking each project and discussed our ideas and suggestions, added her own thoughts and professional opinions, and then worked up multiple proposals for our consideration. She had the vision and ingenuity to take a Lowcountry landscape painting that my wife had painted and manipulated various elements from the piece into the background of all the printed materials she designed for the weekend. She intuitively understood our tastes and objectives and managed to capture them beautifully. The design elements she developed flowed continuously from piece to piece, yet were always slightly different, never duplicated. She developed a harmonious theme from the Save-the-Date Card, to the Invitation, to the greeting card in the hospitality bags, to the Ceremony Program and Reception Menu. She always formulated different options designed to help reduce cost. She was meticulous and precise in everything she executed, settling for nothing short of perfection. Her choices of font, ink color, paper stock, and layout were precisely what we wanted. What we particularly appreciated, however, was her very cheerful, can-do attitude, her charming and witty personality, and her commitment to ensuring the job was done correctly the first time, and on time. We would recommend Sharon to anyone who is planning a wedding or other event requiring design work and custom printing. She is nothing short of THE BEST! …and very reasonably priced as well.
I cannot say enough about how great it was to work with Sharon. Our invitations/place cards and thank you notes were perfect. She is responsive, timely and professional. Thanks highly recommend Cotton Ink!
Sharon was amazing from start to finish! I was dreading this part of wedding planning but Sharon made it so easy. She was very timely with her correspondence, helpful with ideas, and just so nice to work with! My fiancé and I loved our invitations and were so excited to send them out. If I could give Cotton Ink 500 stars, I would!
Sharon was absolutely amazing to work with! She did both our invitations and our seating chart and both came out beautifully. I had a slight idea of what I wanted going into our first meeting and Sharon took the idea and went with it, actually making it 100 times better than I imagined! In addition, Sharon was easy to communicate with and promptly responded to all my questions. Pricing is also reasonable! I would definitely recommend Cotton Ink Invites to anyone!
Sharon at Cotton Ink was by far the most professional, thorough, and caring person we worked with during wedding planning. She took great care and time to make our invites exactly what we wanted.
We had a rough idea of what we wanted the Save the Dates to look like, but she made them look more beautiful than we ever thought possible. Our invitations were somehow exactly what we wanted even though we had no idea what we wanted.
Not only is Sharon very talented, she is also very knowledgeable regarding proper wedding etiquette and timelines. She was not our wedding planner, but she helped us plan our wedding!
After the wedding I will have more parties just so I can work with her again. I truly cannot say enough positive things about this company.
Sharon is an absolute joy to work with! She is very professional, attentive to detail and organized. I commented several times to my now husband that if Sharon were a DJ, Florist or any other wedding vendor I would hire her in a heartbeat. Sharon took the time to uncover what we liked/disliked in terms of design and created beautiful Save the Dates, Invitations, Programs, Itineraries and escort cards for our wedding. We received many compliments on the design and quality. Highly HIGHLY recommend!
Sharon was amzaing! She has beautiful designs and really knows her stuff. I was so happy with how everything turned out. She made made the most beautiful invitations and escort cards for our day!
We wanted something different for our invitations, so we went to Sharon at Cotton Ink. So glad we did! We received so many compliments on our custom designed invites. Right as we were getting ready to mail them out we noticed a small typo on the envelopes and Sharon was so quick and helpful to get them corrected. If you're looking for something more unique and personal, we would definitely recommend Cotton Ink!
We really loved our save the dates and wedding invites! Sharon was really easy to work with, very organized, and very detail-oriented. She made sure to ask us plenty of questions about ourselves and our wedding to make sure we would get invites that represent us. She also had plenty of examples to narrow down styles we liked and disliked. It was easy to schedule meetings and Sharon was really flexible. We truly enjoyed our experience and it was so nice to have one part of wedding planning that we didn't really have to worry about! Thanks, Sharon!
Sharon is absolutely wonderful to work with - a truly genuine and trustworthy vendor! She is flexible, organized, and quick to respond. Our wedding invitations & programs were classic and beautiful - EXACTLY what we pictured. We received so many compliments! Thank you, Sharon, for making our experience personal and effortless!
As a bride-to-be, it was so important that every little detail, from invitations to flowers to THE dress, were just perfect for our best day ever! We found that perfection in Sharon at Cotton Ink. After finding her through a Google search and meeting her at a bridal show, I knew she was the perfect person to create our wedding invitations. Sharon allowed us to work together through the design process, discussing our visions as she brought them to life. She sticks to her calendar and meets her clients' needs well in advance. Sharon is super responsive, always willing to answer a last minute question or produce a few extras for "just in case". Sharon is a high-quality person who clearly is following her passion, as was evident when she agreed to make a small batch of custom invitations for my 1st grade students for hardly any charge at all. We were so in love with our invitations that we had her design our ceremony program and reception menus, too! Her touches helped make our most special day perfect.
Beautiful wedding cards. Received very many compliments. Will highly recommend.
Where do I begin? Working with Sharon has been such a great and pleasurable experience. From the moment I contacted her on Instagram, I knew she was a vendor we could trust and use for our big day. She designed our wedding invitations, our seating chart, day of timeline, and place cards. She always listened to what we liked and never steered us away from what we wanted. The quality is unbelievable, the designs are so crisp and creative, and you don't feel any pressure from her. She was so quick to respond to any questions or concerns we shared. She had designs to us within hours sometimes! Another thing we loved is she was extremely flexible with her hours and time. My fiance and I work a normal schedule, so we usually don't get out of work until 4:30 pm. Some nights, she would take meetings with us at 6:00 pm! I would recommend her to any bride and groom.
I thoroughly enjoyed working with Sharon to design our wedding invitations! I had initially considered just buying them from a company on the internet but had concerns about the quality of the paper. Thank heavens I came to my senses & found Sharon on theknot.com. She asked questions, listened really well, & the final product was FABULOUS! People loved & appreciated the paper quality & depth of color. Wonderful experience!
I had been looking at invitations for weeks, and could not find any I liked. I found Cotton Ink, and I’m so happy I did! Sharon is not only quick to respond, but her invitations are made from the heart. I absolutely love them, and I’ve gotten so many compliments on them. I highly recommend Cotton Ink.
My husband and I got married in May and we were lucky to have Sharon on our team. She designed and printed all of the invites and paper products for our engagement party, bridal shower, rehearsal dinner, wedding and even the bachelorette party! Each one was absolutely perfect and captured the essence of the event right down to every last detail such as the gold embellishments, beautiful envelope liners and wax CLE seal on the menus. She really captured our vision for the big night and was able to bring it to life. Can't thank her enough!
It was such a pleasure working with Sharon to design our wedding invitations. She did an amazing job putting together an invitation that we truly loved. She was so helpful with wording and her drafts helped us know exactly what we were getting. Our final invitations turned out beautiful. Simple and elegant. We received so many compliments on them.
Sharon did an incredible job with our wedding invitations! We met with her, gave her an idea of what we were looking for and she came back with exactly what we wanted and then some! She was extremely professional and easy to work with, we highly suggest her!
I used Cotton Ink for our wedding invitations, what an incredible experience! She was so helpful and nice and encouraging on making choices. She has great examples and does such great work!!!!!
We were SO happy and got so many compliments! We ever got her 2 more weddings! And we then used Cotton Ink for our thank you notes!
LOVED IT ALL!
Sharon was great to work with. Very responsive and organized.
Absolutely loved working with Sharon for both of my daughters weddings. She is incredibly talented and made everything so easy. We received so many compliments on our save the dates as well as the invitations!
Sharon of Cotton Invites is completely professional and produces a beautiful product every time. She is very creative, fun to work with and has a wonderful attention to detail. I am so grateful to have found this vendor!
Cotton Ink creates beautiful invitations for weddings, bridal showers, or any event that requires an invitation. Sharon works closely with the bride to create the perfect invitation. She uses excellent quality cotton papers for the perfect invitation. I highly recommend Cotton Ink!
Sharon did an amazing job! She was very easy to work with and designed the perfect personalized invitations. Her cost is very reasonable for the beautiful work she does. We looked at numerous vendors and Sharon was the absolute best. We had her do our invitations, ceremony programs, menu, and place cards. All of these turned out beautiful and matched our theme wonderfully.
She was also very helpful through the last week. She had no complaints about adding or things last minute.
I would definitely recommend using her and will definitely use her in the future for all of my invitation needs!
We loved working with Cotton Ink Invites for our wedding! Sharon Donnelly is the highest level of professional with impeccable taste. Her many years in the wedding business are apparent. She created gorgeous stationery for our wedding that truly reflected us. We even had her create our church programs and receptions signs because we loved working with her so much. She is quick to respond, patient and has such an eye for colors and pairing. We were so grateful to have her on our team for the wedding. She has our highest recommendation!
I would highly recommend contacting Cotton Ink as soon as you begin the wedding planning process. Sharon, at Cotton Ink, is very knowledgeable when it comes to getting organized and choosing your wedding paper needs. I used Cotton Ink for my Save the Dates, Invitations, Programs, Place Cards and Table numbers and I was highly satisfied. Sharon took the time to learn about my wedding vision and was able to create beautiful products. All of my family, friends and guests were very impressed with not only the designs but the quality as well. Thank you Cotton Ink for all that you did for me and my August wedding.
I was the mother of the groom for an October wedding. The invitations were beyond beautiful. But there is more-- it was our first ever wedding and Cotton Ink did everything for us---gave us tremendous advice throughout the process and unbelievable customer service. The owner is more like a wedding planner. Everything they did was perfect. We also had the rehearsal dinner invitations, programs and table place cards done and everything was beautifully coordinated. Our guests could not stop complimenting us..Cotton Ink is the best.
I hope this grabs your attention .....CALL SHARON at Cotton Ink!!! When my daughter was getting married, we contacted Cotton Ink for custom wedding invitations. Sharon could not have been more helpful. We explained what we wanted and what we didn't want. Sharon created the most beautiful and classy invitations! In addition to the wedding invitations, she designed the save the dates, shower invitations, the programs for the ceremony, place cards for the guests and table numbers. We had many compliments from family and friends!
Since this was our first child getting married, we had many questions, which Sharon happily and competently answered. She went above and beyond for us. Sharon is kind, creative, knowledgeable. and patient....all with exceptional customer service. That is why, along with the quality of her product, you should call Cotton Ink!
Working with Sharon and Cotton Ink Invites was by far the BEST decision we made during our wedding planning process. Not only is Sharon kind and TALENTED, but she truly listens to what you want. She listened to our vision and brought it to life. We loved our invitations so much that we even had her do our menus, place cards, hotel guest welcome cards, and welcome sign! All of her work greatly exceeded our expectations and we are forever grateful for her beautiful contributions to our wedding! We can't wait to use Cotton Ink Invites again one day soon!
Sharon has been invaluable to me as I'm creating a very important wedding keepsake. She was able to take small amount of information I gave her and great something beautiful and timeless. She is a pleasure to work with and will stay in communication with you throughout the project. Cotton Ink is one of the best wedding vendors you will ever work with.
Cotton Ink custom-designed exactly what my fiance and I had in mind. The printing was fast and the product was beautiful and reasonably priced. Communication was easy, consistent, and fast.
Sharon was so nice to work with! She knew what she was doing and really helped us out a lot! She came up with ideas that we didn't even think of before and really helped cover all our basis. Also, the invitations turned out great! It was exactly as we envisioned and better! Everyone of our guests loved the invitations and made a comment about them! Sharon really went above and beyond and we appreciate it! She meet the deadlines you have set with her and very accommodating! We highly recommend her!
I was completely set on using one of the big name online invitation sites until I realized that my fiancé hated the style I had in mind. We could not agree on anything so we decided that it was time to get a professional involved. Enter Sharon. At times she felt more like a therapist than an invitation designer because she perfectly mediated what we wanted and put together the most beautiful invitation suite for us!! The invitations we ended up with are so much more beautiful than anything I could have ordered online and for virtually the same price point! As if this wasn't good enough, she is the most responsive vendor we have worked with by far. She's always a quick email away and was so flexible scheduling meetings around our work schedules. I could not recommend her more. To any bride stressing about what to do for invitations...do not hesitate to call Sharon! She is the best!!
Sharon is the best! Weeding vendors aren't always the easiest to get a hold of, but this was NEVER and issue with Sharon! She was extremely accommodating with my last minute additions to the scope of work. Initially I ordered our invitations, but after seeing the beautiful work, I ordered place cards, signs for our cupcake bar, envelopes for seeds for our wedding favors, and various different table signs. The best part about working with Sharon is that she was just as excited to as I was to work together and create beautiful signage and stationary for our wedding! Thank you so much Sharon, I look forward to being able to work with you in the future!
Sharon is the best! She created all of the beautiful paper goods for our wedding in April. Initially, she made our wedding invitations, which exceeded my expectations! I loved her work so much, I kept on coming up with more projects for her to do :) She is so easy and enjoyable to work with. Her creativity, organizational skills, and professionalism made the process stress-free. I plan to use her for future events and would highly recommend her to anyone!
My now-husband and I met with Sharon from Cotton Ink in the early stages of our wedding planning. She was so warm and welcoming and made us feel like we were her main priority every time we met with her. She created the most beautiful invitations with intricate details based on our conversations and our preferences. She really knew what she was doing and the quality of the invitations, place cards and seating chart sign was so perfectly hand-made and luxurious. We are so happy we chose Cotton Ink and we will definitely be sending our friends to her!
We used Sharon for our invitations, ceremony programs and place cards for our wedding in June. I couldn't be happier with our experience with her. I came in with a vision of what I wanted the invitations to look like and she took that vision and escalated it to another level. They were truly the perfect extension of our theme. Her suggestions for colors, font and other details (i.e. backing, envelope liner) were spot-on and made for a beautiful invitation. We received numerous compliments on the quality of the invitations and, I know I'm biased, but I haven't seen a nicer set! The programs and place cards were also perfectly coordinated to the invites - keeping everything cohesive and classy.
Sharon is extremely personable and was one of the easiest vendors to work with - very open to your vision, but willing and able to offer valuable suggestions where needed. She is such a sweet person and I was truly sad when I picked up our invitations and knew we were done coordinating. I would definitely recommend and will plan to use for future events!
Sharon was FANTASTIC. She did wedding invitations, bridal shower invites, thank you cards, seating chart, table numbers and menus (which were stickers on wine bottles!), "specialty drink" cards and programs for me. She was involved every step of the way by meeting with me, first following my pinterest board to get a feel for what my design tastes we like. Then, she presented multiple design ideas for every item that I asked her to create and we tweaked from there. She even found the envelope liner for me on a personal trip to Washington, DC and took the time to send an email telling me she found said liner! Sharon adds that extra touch of elegance and finesse that you are looking for to pull the whole wedding together, and I am so glad she was part of the whole planning process!
Sharon was so fun and easy to work with. She captured my vision perfectly. Sharon designed the invitations, place cards, programs, and a timeline for my wedding. Each piece was different, interesting, and beautiful, yet the whole suite was cohesive. As a bride, having to make so many decisions, Sharon was so helpful in providing her professional opinion to help me narrow my options, yet gave me the space to make the ultimate choice. She was open to my ideas and opinions and graciously, without hesitation, tweaked pieces to make them just the way I envisioned. During our meetings, I never felt rushed or like "just another bride". Sharon gave me the time I needed to make thoughtful decisions. I would highly recommend Cotton Ink to anyone in the market for custom designed paper goods.
Our wedding invitations turned out better than I could have ever imagined. Sharon captured exactly what I envisioned, although I couldn't even put it into words at the time. She was so great to work with. Her creativity, kindness, and professionalism made it all so easy! She also designed my ceremony programs, place cards, and seating board, and they all came out beautifully too! I'd recommend her to anyone for ANY occasion.!!
