Don't tell our other vendors, but Epitome Papers were our ultimate favorite wedding vendors to work with! We adored both Evelyn and Shannon and really felt like they were committed and excited to make our stationery visions come to life. Every interaction with them was timely, by far our most responsive and communicative wedding vendor. We had our save the dates, invites, and day of stationary done through Epitome and were stunned by the beautiful things they come up with for us. People told us over and over that our invites were a work of art, and some of my friends still have their ENVELOPE from our invitation on their fridge, even three months post wedding. We have multiple items from our work with them now hanging proudly in our home, and will treasure them forever. From our first meeting to their wedding card to us, they made us feel special and understood.
Shannon made pet portraits of our three unique pets for our signature cocktails, and my husband and I were shocked at the detail and personality she as able to include. Our cat's expressions are perfectly portrayed in the portraits!
I can't recommend working with Epitome enough. My husband and I honestly miss working them. I never imagined that our stationary would be such a fond memory of the wedding planning process, but it absolutely was!
Epitome truly brought my wedding stationary vision to life!! They were so easy to work with and we got our products on time and packaged so beautifully. The quality was amazing and seriously love their work! The best duo!
They did amazing ! Had everything that I needed paper wise. Thank you
Epitome Papers was one of our absolute favorite vendors to work with as we planned our wedding. Working with Shannon and Evelyn was such a dream! She was so receptive to our ideas, while also making suggestions to elevate our vision. We could not have asked for better stationary. In my dad's words, "best wedding invites EVER!" And we completely agree. We also loved how our day-of-stationary matched our invite suite, making everything feel so cohesive and upscale. Everything Epitome Papers delivered was incredibly beautiful, from the fonts to the colors to the layouts. The exceptional watercolor artwork deserves its own shout-out too! We would recommend a billion times!!
Escort cards were the #1 thing I was stressed about for our wedding. I knew what I wanted them to look like but wasn't able to figure out how to make it a reality (and even broke my printer in the process). I found Epitome Papers via Google and knew I could trust them to do a great job! The stress was immediately lifted and Evelyn was incredibly patient in answering my questions. The end product was gorgeous and exactly what I imagined. I would 100% recommend!
Epitome Papers went above and BEYOND with our wedding invitations! Evelyn managed to capture each and every one of my animals in the illustrations and the entire feel for our elopement announcement/invite.
The quality of work, print, paper choice and ease of communication was outstanding! I seriously can't say enough good things about these ladies and their work!
My wedding invitations and day of items were absolutely beautiful! I’ve received so many compliments on how unique and gorgeous each item was from all of our guests! Evelyn listened to my vision and would help enhance it! She allowed us to create together to make the perfect invitation! Would use Evelyn again for any stationary needs in the future!
Epitome Papers did an incredible job with all of our stationary. I had numerous people tell me that our wedding invites were the prettiest they had ever seen. Customized to perfection. We used them for all of the day-of paper as well, and everything was cohesive and beautiful. The team was wonderful to work with, very responsive, and very kind. Overall experience was 10 out of 10!
Evelyn was amazing - extremely responsive, attentive to details, and really helpful in finalizing our signage for our wedding. We will definitely use Epitome Papers again and I would recommend them highly to anyone needing custom signage. Truly beautiful end product!
Evelyn and Shannon are both animal lovers and gamer girls, just like me, so this was a match made in heaven. It was so easy to sit with Evelyn and discuss when we wanted our invitations to be, and she went the extra mile to make them possible, even securing a copywrite for an obscure painting we wanted on our envelope liner. The invitations came back beautiful, exactly how we envisioned them.
Currently, the ladies are working on our day-of printing needs and I can't wait to see what they come up with! They've really done the utmost to make the day special for us, and they've made the process so painless!
I would highly recommend Epitome Papers to anyone! I worked with them for my wedding invitations and wedding day signs and posters. Everything turned out BEAUTIFUL! I got so many compliments from all of my guests! I worked with Evelyn, and she is such a joy to work with! She is so talented, and so professional, and so kind, and so great to work with! I will treasure her work forever; she certainly made my wedding experience so special!
Epitome Papers is absolutely amazing! Every time I see something they create, I'm in awe! I've now worked with Evelyn and Shannon for two styled shoots, and I refer my couples to them, and each time I'm blown away by their creativity and the beauty of what they create. They find a way to create something truly special while remaining true to your style. This is why I refer my couples to them as well! Always love working with Epitome Papers and highly recommend their products and services! - Erica, Piece of Cake Minnesota Weddings
I hired Epitome papers after seeing them at a wedding show and realizing I grew up with the designer Shannon. Her work on my invites, save the dates, signage and everything in between was truly world class. Shannon is an incredibly talented wedding designer and she will make your dreams and visions come to life. I highly recommend using her if you want a one of a kind experience. -Marisa
I absolutely loved working with Epitome Papers! They have a fantastic selection and are so fun to work with!
WOW! That's the first thing I have to say about Epitome's incredible talent. The invite suite they made for a styled shoot I photographed was the most beautiful suite I've ever seen. Second, Evelyn and her team are the sweetest humans on this whole earth! I can't wait to work and photograph their work again.
Absolutely beautiful work and the utmost professionalism. I did not know so much care and attention to detail could go into what is a very important presentation and forever keepsake. The style complimented the colors and theme of the wedding perfectly. I would absolutely recommend!
I had the opportunity to work with Epitome Papers in a Preppy & Plaid themed bridal shower/styled shoot last week and everything turned out to be perfect! I shared our Pinterest board with Evelyn and Shannon for inspiration and the day of the shoot, let's just say they NAILED IT! They provided bridal shower invitations, advice for the bride cards, and some misc. signage that fit our theme perfectly. We will continue to recommend Epitome Papers to our clients and can't wait to work with you in the near future! xo, Melody (Events by Melody)
Wow, Epitome was fantastic!! Working with Shannon was probably my favorite part about planning my wedding! She helped make all my nautical wedding details happen. She was prompt and very detail oriented. She helped me with invitations, programs, table cards, table numbers and a wedding gift for my husband. The price was pretty expensive but I think the quality of work and product you get in return was worth every penny! Thank you Shannon for being spectacular in every way!
Epitome is not cheap! But we all know that saying, "You get what you paid for" and that goes for this place too. We spended more than we wanted to, but the invitations were absolutely gorgeous. We loved every bit of them. The person helping us was wonderful. We didn't feel rushed at all even though we struggled to make a decision. She helped us with wording, design and even told us when something wasn't worth the price. We had a great experience here and have already offered them up as a great option to many friends! I will add, make sure to go in and order in time. As this place is really good, they are in high demand and it could take awhile to get those perfect invites!
I had a vision of what I wanted and it was carried out! Very European and classic!! Everything was beautiful and well done, good quality.
Downside: I tried to get the staff to start working on certain things ahead of time and they wanted to wait closer to the date, this stressed me out and then I had to do all these little the night before the wedding. I was sleepy and so was everyone else but we spent the night doing ceremony programs and table numbers because Epitome wanted to wait. Too much stress the night before a wedding!!
