Crissie was so, so wonderful to work with throughout the entire design process for our wedding paper goods (and enamelware — more on that below!). For each item she was designing, Crissie would present several concepts to me and my husband, a...

nd it was on us to choose one to move forward with. It was always harder than we thought; each concept was so good! Crissie was amazing at getting exactly the vibe and ideas we had in mind but didn't know how to articulate. When I wanted to give enamelware camping mugs as wedding gifts, Crissie was instrumental in making that happen, working with a vendor to get her designs printed on the mugs. They were a huge hit. Would highly recommend Crissie and her beautiful watercolors for any of your design needs <3

ecial for us. We wanted to base the invitations off of a stained glass window that was in our venue, and she took that simple idea and added beauty, coming up with the concept that our invitations were 'As if, over the years, the stained glass window had fallen away to reveal a living version of itself'. Chills! We loved her design and concept so much, that we ended up inspiring much of our wedding after it! Crissie embodies creativity at the highest level. We were nearly 8,000 miles apart during the design process, but she made us feel so confident and found ways to show us every aspect of what was going into the invitation suite. Thank you thank you thank you for this keepsake that will always be in our hearts and framed on our wall.

le about stationery in general. She walked me through a ton of options that I did not know existed - envelope size and style? paper weight? address etiquette? - she knows it all! I work in Public Relations and am very picky about vendors. Crissie was extremely responsive over email and did not a start new email thread every time she had an update for me (am I the only one bothered by this?!). Crissie never missed a deadline and there was no stress around this piece of my wedding. I felt like she was truly on my team and wanted to produce the best work for me and my husband. I would 110% recommend working with Crissie, especially if you are looking for something that is one-of-a-kind. Her prices are beyond fair and she is lovely.
