Poor service, errors, and no apology for over ordering.
Wonderful! HIGHLY recommend!!!
Jennifer was wonderful! She was very efficiant and prompt with replies. Our appointment was set up immediately, and she was so helpful with suggestions throughout the entire process. Jennifer essentially helped "custom make" our invitations when she heard my husband and my wishes. Jennifer was also great with sending proofs of the invitations to overlook, and was so quick with any questions or changed we desired. Our invitations were stunning and I got many compliments on them.
My husband and I loved working with Jennifer and would highly recommend her and her services to any future bride. I have already recommended her to several future brides I know. You will not be disappointed!
I enjoyed planning our wedding so much; to me, every detail was more fun to plan than the next. However, I was singing a different tune when it came to designing our invitations. There are so many websites out there, that I became overwhelmed very quickly. A co-worker recommended For Now and Forever Invitations to me. My husband and I met with Jennifer to look at samples. She worked with us and our budget to create the perfect invitations for our big day. Working with her was so easy and fun. She was able to provide us with invitations that matched our personalities and wedding vision. I highly recommend her to anyone!
I have a hard time making decisions and Jennifer really helped me through this entire process. I have complicated family issues (who doesn't) and she told me the etiquette for how to address my invites. I started with my Save-the-dates and after 2 hours of me pouring over invitations we found my perfect one (by mixing and matching lots of invites). Jennifer was always quick to respond to emails or texts and was very flexible with my hectic schedule. She even went above and beyond by showing my MOH my invites (from the pieces of other invites) at the bridal show we were at, while her booth was full of people. It made me feel truly special! I would recommend Jennifer any day for hassle free invites! The price was the same (if not cheaper) than had I gone through some online company and done it through them!

Jennifer at Now and Forever is awesome!!! I first met her at a bridal show and became interested right away by her knowledge of etiquette and large selection of classic and elegant wedding invitations. While meeting with Jennifer during our consultation, she was able to show us great options within our budget and helped us pick out the perfect wording, fonts, colors, etc. The invitations are VERY high quality, came with all the envelopes (including the inner), and had the return address printed right on the back flap of the envelopes and also on the reply envelopes. No labels for this girl!!! I have receives so many complements on my invitations and their quality. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone.
Side note: with the budget I had, I NEVER could have afforded something from Wedding Paper Divas that looked halfway decent. AND compared to WPD and other similar online options, Jennifer's invitations blew them away.
Jennifer was amazing. I purchased invites, menus, programs, and place cards from her. They gave a common element to all the different pieces of our wedding and set the tone from day 1. I was impressed by her professionalism, expertise, and attention to detail. I would recommend her to anyone! Thanks for everything!
I worked with Jennifer on our wedding invitations (included escort cards and thank you notes) as well as our programs. She is extremely knowledgeable and helpful. She always answered my questions promptly and was extremely pleasurable to work with. I loved the personal attention and the wide range of products to pick from to meet every budget. I also love that she is local and would be happy to give her my business time and time again. 5+ stars in my book!
The invitations were amazing! So beautiful and everybody loved them. The "icing" was the best part - instead of handwriting everyone's address, it's a long sticker that goes on the outside of the main envelope that has the guest's name/address printed on it and then it wraps around to the back of the envelope with the return address printed on it. Jennifer is super nice and does everything she can do to accommodate your needs. We ran out of glue dots and rhinestones while putting the invitations together and she had the rest of them sent via overnight so we could finish the invitations the next day.
Jennifer is absolutely amazing! Extremely knowledgeable and prompt in responding. Our invitations were absolutely beautiful and I couldn’t have been more happy with how they came out. We did have a mistake on our invitations (our fault) since we okayed the proofs but Jennifer was so kind and quick to solve the issue for us and at a very reasonable cost. I would recommended her to any bride!
Jennifer of For Now and Forever was wonderful to me and my parents when we were choosing our save the dates and wedding invitations for my upcoming wedding. Her large amount of experience made the entire process easy and everything just flowed. She was a great resource throughout the past year for me as well. I highly recommend future brides use For Now and Forever for their invitations -- you will not be disappointed! Everything turned out better than I could have ever hoped for!
Invitations turned out beautiful! My guests gave many compliments on how wonderful they looked!! Jennifer is amazing to work with! Super kind and very knowledgeable. I would recommend her to anyone!
Being a Bride and not from Wisconsin, I was so nervous about finding a great person to help me with my invitations. I found For Now and Forever on the Knot and I read previous reviews and knew Jennifer was the person for me. I wasn't expecting a lot and I was blown away by Jennifer! First, we went with our Save the Dates and they were wonderfully priced (which I wasn't thinking was going to be the case) and they were PERFECT! I received so so many compliments and they are beautifully made and with wonderful colors. Then my Invitations!! So many options and so many great ideas! I have gotten so many compliments and wonderful feed back from everyone. One of my co-workers daughter took the invitation to her school to show her friends! I mean if that doesn't explain how great they are, I don't know what will. I also have had family members post them on social media because of how perfect, beautiful, fancy, timeless they are. Next thing I got was my place cards, I was originally worried about how I was going to even make these things and For Now and Forever just took care of them for me. All I said was what colors I was looking for and poof they were taken care of, names, entrees, table numbers and coordinating colors! I was and still am amazed with my entire experience with For Now and Forever. One of my BEST decisions was choosing them! I am forever grateful for them! I will be referring EVERYONE to them! So, look no further... this is who you want! Jennifer Brown!!

My daughter gave the responsibility of narrowing down her wants and wishes to me. Jennifer was absolutely outstanding to work with through this process. There are so many options available to a bride today. Jennifer's helpful guidance led us to a selection that everyone was excited about. I'm very grateful that Jennifer took the time to meet with me alone at first to help us in this way.
We were treated with respect from the first contact. Jennifer was able to put together our invitation, EXACTLY the way we wanted it. We had tried other vendors who were not interested in what we wanted. If you go any place else, you are just wasting time and money!
This company is great and Jennifer was a huge help to us.
She knows all the " wedding rules" and was a delight to deal with
I would highly recommend her
I was given Jennifer's name from a friend who was getting married a few months before me. My mother and I met with Jennifer at her home office and I really had no idea what to expect. Jennifer made the overwhelming experience very smooth. She provided my mother and I with exceptional knowledge from wedding etiquette, do's and dont's of wedding invitations and allowed me to come up with the perfect invitation for our big day. I was very pleased with the outcome and any questions that I had, Jennifer always had an answer promptly. I highly recommend For Now and Forever to all brides who are looking for a more personal experience in picking out an invitation.
Jennifer Brown helped my husband choose the perfect save the date and invitations for our destination wedding at the beach. When I came to meet her she had already done her research and had gathered ideas and suggestions for our wedding. She had several books laid out and had a good feel for what sort of fit would be best.
She was extremely experienced with etiquette and guided my husband and I through the invitation process.
My husband, Brian, and I highly recommend For Now and Forever for invitations. Thanks Jennifer!
Using Jennifer Brown was the best experience I could've asked for. She is professional, knowledgeable and extremely creative. I had every etiquette question you could possibly think of and Jennifer had an answer for all of them. I received numerous compliments on my invitations-they were formal, gorgeous pocket invitations. Many of my guests complimented the invitations saying they were the best they've ever seen and that I had thought of every detail.
In addition, Jennifer kept in close contact with me throughout the entire process, making sure that I had every detail on time. I also used her for my place cards, thank-yous and table numbers. Jennifer kept me on schedule and even though I cut it close with the final details and last minute decisions, everything still came in on time.
My wedding would not have been the amazing event it was without Jennifer's help. She was willing to answer questions and go above and beyond our agreement. I HIGHLY recommend using Jennifer Brown and For Now and Forever wedding invitations.
I recently was married on April 27th, 2013. I first attempted to do my invitations online to save money, and hassel. I quickly realized that it was just as much of a headache, and not a huge cost saver. A friend directed me to For Now and Forever Invitations. Jennifer was FANTASTIC. With just under 6 mo to plan, I told Jennifer my timeline and budget, and she worked with me to create the perfect inviatations. She has years of experience, and even provides brides with a crash course in wedding etiquette.
If you are looking for that personal touch, I highly recommend For Now and Forever. A word of the wise: tell Jen your budget up front, and if you have 200+ expect to spend +$600.
My husband and I discovered For Now and Forever at The Wonderful World of Weddings bridal expo in Milwaukee. From the get-go, we definitely knew Jennifer was an expert, and knew what she was doing.
We ended up choosing For Now and Forever for our wedding invitations, and I am very happy with our decision. Jennifer helped us with choosing a style that would come in our hard-to-find color (coral), helped us with the wording, fonts, how to put the invitations together, and so much more! On top of that, we received SO many compliments on how beautiful our invitations were from guests.
We cannot thank Jennifer at For Now and Forever enough!!

I am the mother of the Bride and wanted to say Jennifer was so wonderful to work with! My daughter and her fiance had no idea what they wanted but by asking questions and really being interested in them she was able to guide them till they found something they loved. She was even able to help them tweak the item they picked out to fit their personalities to a tee! We got a lot of compliments after they were sent out. Thanks again Jennifer for everything you did too help Carrie and James find the perfect invitation.

Jennifer is great at listening to your ideas and finding just the perfect invitations for you. She also has great advice on etiquette and wording. She can also find you additional options for cost savings.
I've known Jennifer for several years before I got married. She helped us with our save the dates & invitations and everything turned out wonderful! I wouldn't have considered hiring anyone else to help us spread the word about our wedding. She's great to work with and very prompt in answering any questions we had. We got lots of compliments on what we chose as well. Thank you!
First of all - I loved coming to see Jennifer - she was always punctual, warm, inviting(haha), and I think she has a keen sense of finding what each individual bride wants. I didn't want a booklet or crazy colors - I had a VISION before I went in - and we were able to find exactly what I wanted. They were beautiful and on time! I am a planner so I wasn't the type of Bride that needed to be bugged about getting things done on time - however, if you are that type of bride- the great thing is Jennifer is SO ORGANIZED she will make sure everything is in ON TIME - so you receive everything ON TIME - puts a little less worry out of our hands as we have 3000 things going on at once. We received MANY compliments on our classic and beautiful invitations. Thanks Again Jennifer!
Jennifer Brown helped guide me through invitations for several of my events and hands down has a knowledge unlike other vendors I have met with in the past! She was exceptional in terms of politeness and professionalism. Jennifer and I have a great working rapport and I refer her often. The most solid part of Jennifer is that she is kind and helpful and truly knows the ins and outs of invitation etiquette!
Jennifer goes above and beyond to make sure you have the perfect wedding invitations. She always responds quickly to emails and makes sure that everything on your invitations (we also did programs and place cards) are exactly what you wanted and meet all your expectations. Jennifer herself is extremely friendly and sweet and a pleasure to work with, especially during such as stressful time. I would recommend her to anyone needing printed materials!
Jennifer is always welcoming and warm, ready with a smile. It's so easy to talk to Jennifer and she really understands what brides are going through. She doesn't push expensive packages you can't afford and has TONS of books to look through with beautiful unique invitations at really great prices. It's the perfect place to get invites!!
I was referred to Jennifer from a friend who got married 3 years ago. Our wedding was this past September 2012. Jennifer made it so easy to sit down with her, select the invitations we wanted (out of so many styles to choose from), and then she did the rest! She was so wonderful to work with and always available for questions I might have. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for wedding invites! Thanks Jennifer!
I am not surprised to see that Jennifer at Now and Forever is still making brides happy with her beautiful products and fantastic customer service. Our "winter wonderland" invites couldn't have been more perfect!
I enjoyed working with Jennifer. She had a great selection of invitations and was very helpful! I liked that she helped out with editing. Prices were reasonable.
Jennifer went way above the call of duty in assisting with our wedding invitation transactions. Her patience and dedication to helping a couple choose the RIGHT invitations was outstanding! She focused all her attention on my now husband and I to help us choose invitations according to our own wedding style, personalities, preferences for practicality (we liked the pocket style!) yet still adhere to our fairly tight budget. It was obvious that she truly takes pride in her work, as well as in maintaining a high level of fun, creativity, and excitement in the entire planning process for the couple. She was exceptional with working with our timing issues and was flexible in arranging a time that would work best for us since we each had significant travel distances to overcome to see Jennifer...and yes, the drive was absolutely worth it to do business with Jennifer. Personal, ethical, and supportive - she does wonderful work!
Loved loved this vendor! Cheap, beautiful invites. And Jennifer was wonderful to work with!
Our invitations, programs, etc. all turned out beautiful! Jennifer is great to work with!
Working with Jennifer made picking out invitations relatively stress free. Jennifer was patient and provided direction to us as we had very little to offer her in terms of what we wanted going in. She was able to determine what would work for us and offered us a more non-traditional invitation style that was budget friendly and still very cool. The style we picked didn't need any extra postage either, which was great. She provided instructions on how to properly address each invitation as well as how to assemble them . Jennifer was always prompt in our communication, quick to respond via both phone and email. Jennifer is knowledgeable and personable and her assistance with the whole process was greatly appreciated. I cannot recommend her enough!
Working with Jennifer was such a pleasure - from start to finish. She was patient and friendly as we poured through the design books and she was helpful in offering suggestions. I picked fairly traditional invites, but she suggested adding a pop of color in the envelope liner and that was such a fantastic touch! It fit what I was looking for so perfectly.
She was so helpful in even the details such as providing instructions for how to properly address each invitation as well. It was so much appreciated!
Jennifer was always prompt in our communication, quick to respond via both phone and email. Our invitations themselves were better than we imagined and our experience with Jennifer was nothing short of fabulous. I cannot recommend her enough!
I went to Jennifer without knowing what to do at all! All I knew was that I needed pink and black. Jennifer was so helpful and made the choosing process so simple! I loved hearing from everyone who received an invite on how beautiful the invites were. And the invites definitely set our guests up for a good time at the wedding! I recommend using For Now and Forever!!
The invitation process was easy and done in a few hours. I am a person who can't make up their mind very fast, so my now husband was surprised it was completed in a few hours. The lady sat down and showed us everything we had talked about with our styles and how we wanted them to look.
The overall product was a deep red invite vertically with a black long envelope and a silver RSVP card to come back to me in a red envelope. (red, black and silver were our colors) Many family members told me how those invites resembled us--- very modern and sleek was what I was going for-- even down to the font and wording. Awesome job and low stressed--- She will tell you also how to word the envelopes properly so there is no confusion.
Extremely pleased with the overall experience! Wish I had started here. The vendor was confident, pleasant, and totally in tune with what I wanted. Found a beautiful invitation at less cost than other locations. Mailed over 160 invitations, and received many positive comments, with many of the guests stating they would retain the them as keepsakes.
Jennifer is an absolute joy to work with. She is so sweet, so knowledgable and so great at explaining every tiny detail that goes into creating the invitation suite. My husband and I enjoyed working with her so much that we both agreed it was one of our favorite parts of the wedding planning process. With her help, we found the perfect save-the-dates and invitations that were so "us". I can't even tell you how many compliments we received! Even when there was a slight glitch with our order (due to the printer), Jennifer had it sorted out that same day and everything was fixed within hours. She's the absolute best and I'd recommend her in a heartbeat.
Working with Jennifer was awesome and stress free! She was SO helpful throughout the process, not to mention her extensive selection of invitation ideas, made it a wonderfully easy part of my wedding planning! I was referred to her from my sister (who raved about her) and I definitely have to do the same! I got so many great comments about my invitations and wouldn't change a thing!
This was my favorite vendor of all the vendors I used! Jennifer provided knowledgeable, personal experience and recommendations. While I LOVED the invitations simply because they were mine I was amazed at the compliments from attendees. "They are the most beautiful, classy invitations I have EVER seen - and trust me, I've seen a lot" was the response I got from many people! The range of invitations, styles and colors was outstanding! I liked that I was able to sit down and customize on my own invitation to my liking but that I also had a professional to lend advice if I was faltering with a decision.
Jennifer at For Now and Forever Invitations provided wonderful customer service. My husband and I knew next to nothing about wedding invitations and were not even sure what we wanted.
The invitations Jennifer helped us to "almost customize" were outstanding... and VERY reasonably priced compared to other stationers we interviewed. I am STILL receiving compliments on them three months after our wedding (8/12/11). The invitations matched the programs and table cards. I love them - even the pictures of them are gorgeous.
Also... to my surprise... my boss at work (who attended the wedding) was SO impressed by the organized feel of my wedding that he asked me to help him with a personal event. I believe that a large part of his impression was due to the invitations.
I can't thank Jennifer enough. She is lovely. You will definitly enjoy working with her.
Using For Now & Forever was the easiest, least stressful, and expedient part of planning my entire wedding. With so much to worry about, it was so nice to know that I knew my invitations were going to be perfect.
You get a very intimate planning session with Jennifer (who was an absolute joy to work with) where you tell her what your looking for, your budget, etc, and she tailors what you want to fit your vision PERFECTLY! She has so many different options and invitation styles to choose from, and is able to pinpoint a handful for you to choose from according to what it is you want.
Your making a mistake if you don't use For Now and Forever!!!
Jennifer did an amazing job for my wedding invitations. She was easy to meet with and explained the entire proper edict needed. Any questions I had she was quick to respond!
Jennifer made picking wedding invites easy. She is incredibly knowledgable and provided great suggestions - as a busy bride, I really appreciated that.

We had a wonderful experience working with Jennifer on our wedding invitations. She was very thorough in all aspects from the design to all the instructions of timing with the invitations. We really appreciated her personal touch and accessability any time we had questions. It was worth every penny we spent on our invitations and we received many compliments on them. We highly recommend Jennifers' services to any bride and groom.
Wedding date: June 25, 2011
Everything was wonderful from start to finish. One appointment to choose everything & one to pick everything up. We bought everything from the invitations, reply cards, accommodations cards, envelopes, thank you cards, wedding programs, & bridal shower thank yous for $640. (100 of everything, except thank you's we bought 200) We were very pleased with everything, and happy we didn't decide to make our own invites with everything else to plan.
I worked with Jennifer to pick out my wedding invitations. It was honestly something I was not looking forward to doing as I thought it would be a ton of work with correct wording, etc. But when I met with Jennifer she helped me with EVERYTHING and made it so easy and not stressful. I was SO happy with my invitations and they were very reasonable as well. I highly recommend For Now and Forever Invitations! You will not be disappointed.
Jennifer was great. I was up front with her about the amount of money I wanted to spend and she gave me tons of options. The invitations turned out beautiful and she took the time to explain everything to me. I would definitely recommend her to anyone out there!
I used Jennifer for only a tiny portion of my invitations, the pockets, but she treated me like I had spent thousands of dollars with her. She answered e-mails seconds after I sent them and was so on top of everything. She's a true professional!
I went in not really knowing what I wanted to use for invites and Jennifer guided us through several books and ideas. I thought I wanted a classic invite but ended up with a all in one pocket invitations that looked so classy and polished. Jennifer helped with all the uploading of all the addresses and names to be printed. Well worth having someone guide me through the process I would have been so lost doind it on my own online!
The invitations were eactly what i wanted!
We really enjoyed working with Jennifer. She helped us make our invitation vision come to life and was so helpful with the wording, etiquette and assembly instructions for our invitations. She was one of our favorite vendors--such a nice woman to work with! She was dependable and the invitations came out beautifully. We got so many compliments.
Working with Jennifer from For Now & Forever Invitations was an amazing experience. She was so personable and really listened to what we wanted! Couldn't have asked for more.
Getting our invitations was a very positive experience thanks to Jennifer at For Now & Forever. We wanted to support local business, plus she really knows what she is doing!
