Karri Lee Designs

Karri is a total doll and an incredibly creative soul- we were so lucky to have found her for our wedding in October! Karri hand lettered our seating charts and ceremony / reception signage beautifully, and worked seamlessly with our florist (Melissa from Stylish Blooms) to make sure that our wedding was a pinterest-perfect reflection of us as a couple. We couldn't be happier with the end results!

We had struggled to find invitations that suited our style and price range. Custom invitation suites in NYC were incredibly costly and the options we found online and in stationary stores didn't really get us incredibly excited. There was always one little thing we wanted to change in their offerings that we couldn't. We were about to give up until we saw an invitation suite on Instagram that Karri had designed. Karri is extremely warm and friendly to work with, she is a local girl with strong ties to Connecticut wedding community. And she is above all so incredibly talented in calligraphy, watercolors, and painting! She was so gracious with her time and spent a couple hours with us in consultation as she heard our ideas and guided us towards a custom, hand-painted design that is uniquely ours and we absolutely love. Our invitation suite was a painting of the gazebo we would get married in front of, with the flowers of our wedding day. In fact, we gave that design to our florist as inspiration to recreate the painted scene in real life. She was great in sketching out many different ideas for us and going through whatever amount of revision was necessary to get the invitations exactly to our taste. For all that effort, Karri's pricing was ultimately only a small step above the quotes we were getting at shops like Minted and Paper Source. We absolutely love our invitation suite and so did our guests. The experience of working with Karri definitely holds a special memory and her suite will be forever cherished. Her style may not be for everyone, it was perfect for us. Her instagram has some examples of all the amazing work she has produced. @karri.lee.designs

When choosing vendors for the wedding we spent a great deal of time looking for the right invitations and calligraphy vendor. We checked out a lot of websites and viewed countless photos on Instagram. That’s basically a huge understatement. It was all worth it because at the end of the day we could not be happier with our choice. In short, Karri nailed it. I had a vision that actually shifted a bit with Karri’s help! She has amazing ideas, and I can’t thank her enough. I’ve never seen invitations so gorgeous! I had Karri do a bunch of day of work as well. I just couldn’t get enough! I should also mention that we were likely not the easiest clients. We live on the west coast, and I like to be extremely involved. Karri was always patient and it was greatly appreciated. She’s so sweet and did such a beautiful job! We could not be more grateful. Thank you, Karri!
