Marie is a beautiful human. I know that may sound melodramatic but I honestly mean it. I wanted to personalize gift boxes for my bridal party and Marie went above and beyond to ensure that I got exactly what I detailed. She went above my expectations and personalized each box for each person on my bridal party. Throughout the process she communicated proficiently and provided a litany of drafts. Marie has a charming spirit and I will use her again and again for my calligraphy needs.
Marie had so many fun ideas for us! My husband is a pilot and we wanted to incorporate some aviation-related details into the decorations. Marie came up with the most clever little airplanes for our place cards and a larger model for the head table. The guest name was on the wings, the wedding date on the vertical part of the tail and the table number on the horizontal part of the tail. We loved them! Her attention to detail was amazing. The propellers on the front even turned!
Something that I really appreciated was that one of the first questions Marie asked was what my vision for the day was and how I wanted things to look. She gave me options throughout the entire process. She also did our table numbers and several labels for our dessert table. Everything was just beautiful and really gave a lovely touch to the day. Thanks so much Marie! It was great to get to work with you.
Marie was an absolute pleasure to work with and her work was undoubtedly wonderful! All of our guest were mesmerized by the seating chart mirror Marie created for us. One after another they stood by it to take pictures. The mirror came out beautifully. Thank you Marie!
Marie absolutely saved my day with my escort cards!! We had ordered our escort cards through minted.com and there was a huge ordeal with FedEx. Basically I called her 2 days before my wedding asking for an impossibly task. 57 hand written escort cards. And boy did she make the impossible happen. Not only did she make it happen, but they were absolutely beautiful! I met with her for about 30 minutes and we talked about ideas and she took my ideas and really brought them to life in those 2 days (more like 1.5). They looked amazing!!! I don't know what I would have done with out her b/c no one in my family has good handwriting, so she really pulled me out of the only jam that happened during this whole wedding. She was an absolute peach to work with as well! <3
