I worked with Paper Tie Affair for both my custom invitation suite and day-of stationery. While the final products looked decent, my experience was unfortunately ruined by multiple...
significant errors and a lack of proactive guidance throughout the process.
The Good: The invitations looked good enough and had a nice aesthetic. For couples who aren't too particular about details, the basic product quality will do.
Areas for Improvement: I wish there had been more consultation during the design process. I would have appreciated being offered premium upgrade options like thicker cardstock or inner and outer envelopes to achieve the high-end look I was going for. More guidance on how to elevate the suite would have been helpful.
The Bad: Unfortunately, there were several errors that caused real problems:
-The wrong QR code was printed on my reply card.. Because it wasn't a dynamic QR code that could be updated, I had to personally text all my guests with the correct RSVP link. This was embarrassing and stressful. I received a $200 credit for this mistake.
-My day-of stationery was missing place cards for my husband and me, despite including them on the Excel sheet and calling them out in my email
-The escort cards had inconsistent formatting. Numbers weren't justified properly, and longer names were made with smaller font sizes. While I didn't see the proof she sent via email,, I would expect a stationery professional to clearly communicate when using different font sizes rather than letting it go unnoticed. I can’t imagine many brides would want to go for this look. I had to pay for the escort cards to be redone.
-Most frustratingly, 500 custom cocktail napkins arrived in blue-green instead of the approved moss green from my proof. . .just 10 days before my wedding. The color was never flagged as different in the proof, and no solutions were offered. I had to order replacement napkins elsewhere to ensure everything matched. By the end, I spent $1,000 on paper napkins.
Throughout the process, there were numerous typos that required my constant attention-to-detail. What was most disappointing was the lack of accountability when mistakes occurred, particularly those so close to my wedding date.
If you're looking for a vendor who will guide you through the process, catch their own errors, and take responsibility when things go wrong, I'd recommend looking elsewhere. This was my only difficult vendor experience.

nient for everyone. We were really happy with the end result and, when we had to postpone our wedding due to Covid-19, McKenzie was gracious enough to prepare us a free "change of date" file we could share with our guests. We'll definitely be using her services again in the future!

ask for? She was so easy to work with and answered all of my questions promptly! She made sure my vision came to life including finding the perfect dusty blue color for all of my items!

h a creative mind, and made the design process so easy for us. Additionally, she kept our budget in mind while helping us pick out ribbons and add ons to the invitation suite, so that was incredibly helpful!! She was always quick to respond when we had questions or when I had a revision to something on one of the drafts of the invitations. When we received the invitations, the packaging was so thought out and amazing. Instructions for how to pack the envelopes, helpful tips to know as we prepare to send out the invitations, and even a pre-made suite packaged for our photographer to be able to take photos of on the day of the wedding. We are so happy we found Paper Tie Affair!!
ADDED NOTES AFTER WEDDING: We had to postpone our wedding from June last year, until this April, and McKenzie was so helpful to us when it came to getting new invitations printed out, and putting a pause of all the day-of stationary we had picked out. She was so great to work with through everything!!
McKenzie is one of my favorite vendors! Her product is amazing and her customer service is beyond anything I've ever experienced. I wanted simple, classic invitations and she made ...
those come to life. Closer to my wedding she reached out to see if there was anything else I might need, reminding me I had never ordered table numbers, thank you cards, etc. and I was so grateful for this. I could not recommend Paper Tie Affair more!! She will make your wedding dreams a reality!
Paper Tie Affair was an absolute DREAM to work with. McKenzie went above and beyond in making sure my wedding invitation suite was exactly the way I envisioned it, down to the last...
detail. She made so many changes for me, no questions asked, and had such a quick turnaround time! She even rush created and shipped (over a holiday no less) an RSVP insert card for me since I forgot to mention it on the details card specifically. Her customer service is truly unmatched. I could not recommend her more. Very affordable, reliable, professional, and flexible! Will definitely be using again in the future for all stationary needs.
Please do not hesitate to book PTA for all of your stationary needs! You will not regret it.
Going to take this opportunity to brag on McKenzie and paper tie affair! Our invitations, save the dates, rehearsal dinner invites, and brunch invites were all absolutely stunning!...
It was the easiest process! She created exactly what i wanted at a very affordable price! Did i mention she does coozies? I threw that on her only a couple months before our wedding and she created exactly what i wanted and had them too me in plenty of time! Any errors were quickly corrected or made up for! Never experienced such great customer service! At the beginning of our process we had a phone call to discuss what i wanted, how i wanted it, options that i had and when i needed to make sure i had everything by! It was such a joy to work with Mckenzie and have sent every bride to be i know to her!

out this entire wedding process. I wish I had found her before I sent out save the dates. However, my invitation suite and day-of programs turned out gorgeous! She was so helpful with ideas on design, wording, etc. and made so many small edits to my invitations until they were absolutely perfect. I had seen one of her designs just while googling my idea for invitation and font style and that is how I found her. Super friendly, helpful and professional - you can’t go wrong. She has made this process so enjoyable and gets things done and sent out in a very timely manner. Her packaging was also super cute!

I am so glad we did! McKenzie was so easy to work with and provided various mock ups of different designs, based on inspiration photos I provided. She worked with us to refine our vision, and we were so pleased with the final product. I wish we had done our invitations with her too! I would recommend Paper Tie Affair to anyone!
McKenzie did a great job from the beginning. I found her on Etsy and immediately contacted her about my interest in one of the invitation suites she had on her Etsy page. She sent ...
me a complimentary sample of that suite. I chose to work with McKenzie and her team to create my wedding invites. They got it all exactly right!

The first time I've ever worked with a stationer is for our wedding and I was a little intimidated by the process. Paper Tie Affair was so easy to work with and, from my limited ex...
perience, I thought the pricing was reasonable. McKenzie turned around projects within my timelines (even if I was late in getting her what she needed) and provided design recommendations to make my signage dreams come true. I even have our ceremony welcome sign framed in our home!! Very happy we chose Paper Tie Affair and am already working with McKenzie again. Highly recommend!

te, but after I saw her amazing designs, she ended up designing our table numbers, seating chart, and even stickers for our goodie bags! She was also super easy to get a hold of whenever I had a question, which made this stressed out bride very happy! She made my vision come to life in every possible way!
We used Paper Tie for our Christmas cards, and absolutely loved them!
