I worked with this vendor on my custom fold wedding invitations and wedding programs 2 years ago and never got around to posting a review but people still mention how unique and lo...
vely our invitations were and how much they loved them 2 years later! So yes thus is a really late review (I usually do not do reviews) but felt the need to do it finally because Cari was easily one of my best and easiest vendors to deal with through our rushed wedding planning process and I would recommend her to anyone.
WONDERFUL experience working with The Design Brewery and would highly recommend to anyone! I really appreciated her help with the design and making something work for us.

I wanted a Disney inspired invitation, without it looking child-like. I came across Design Brewery and all of her designs caught my eye. I asked if a few personalized edits could...
be made to the graphics, and card titles, and she went step by step through everything I wanted. She sent me proofs of everything, after every edit. The end result was EXACTLY what I wanted. I thought I was going to have to order more, after I showed them off to everyone at work, and realized that some of the people I wasn't even inviting, but I loved the invitations so much I wanted to show everyone!!
After the proof was approved, she had them printed and delivered in a week!! Disney or not, you need to get your invitations from Design Brewery!! Worth every penny!!

I am so happy with the wedding invitations I ordered from The Design Brewery! Cari was so great with creating a custom order for me, since I was sending separate invites to guests...
in Europe and different ones to guests in the US. She was so accommodating and made sure that everything was perfect before it went to print.
Recently, I sent out the last of my invitations and I have gotten SO MANY compliments on them! Each element was printed exactly as we discussed! I am glad that I ordered the invites ahead of time so I could assemble them all without stress. Thank you so much, Cari!
Ordered wedding invitations, rehearsal dinner invites, programs, and escort cards. Shipping was fast. Everything looked great and received many compliments! Would def use again.

Cari is amazing! I can't tell you how great it is to have fabulous communication with someone. Cari gets back with her customers so quickly and is very thorough on everything to ex...
pect. These invites are hands-down stunning! Coming from an anxious future bride like me, Cari calmed me down and walked me through everything.

I love my fan design! Perfect size, and matches my wedding colors perfectly!
I am helping my daughter with the wedding planning, and really felt overwhelmed. I spent hours looking at different invitations, signs, table numbers, etc. Finally, I saw beautif...
ul products at the Design Brewery. Cari made it extremely easy, and was quick with her responses and answering my questions. I wanted to ensure that everything matched, and Cari went out of her way to do just that, even allowing me to order products from her that were not advertised. If I needed it, she made designs for me to pick from and set up and order. She was willing to work with me time and time again. I just received most of the items, including a full set of pocket invitations, guest gift bag tags, Welcome sign for my daughter's bridal party, Thank you sign for the wedding guests, and Table numbers. They are absolutely beautiful. I can't thank Cari enough for all of her help and the wonderful products offered by Design Brewery.
From the day I "favorited" an invitation at The Design Brewery, the communication with Cari was excellent. I was able to customize my invitation and Cari even helped with some phra...
sing that was giving me trouble. Her experience, beautiful designs and commitment to excellent customer service is the reason I will order from The Design Brewery in the future and would recommend to anyone!
Cari is SO nice. She’s great through the design process, was super understanding to all my little changes, and maintained great communication throughout the whole process. Her pric...

Perfect invitations and amazing customer service!

i was great at responding to our million questions and she really listened to what we wanted. Our invitations are exactly what we wanted and the price was very reasonable. I’m going to have Cari do our seating chart too after seeing how beautiful our invitations came out.
We love our Disney inspired program/thank you for our wedding!!! We are over the moon at how magical they are!!!
Thank you!!!
There are so many invitations to choose from along with so many websites that it can become overwhelming to pick the "perfect" one.
Cari from The Design Brewery has beautiful inv...
itations and so many other options that will match your color scheme. She is so easy to work with, responds very quickly and is super friendly! She met and exceeded our expectations. We LOVE our invites and RSVP cards! Can't wait for our big day!!

We used the Design Brewery to create customized invitations for our wedding and reception invitations. Cari is a professional who provided great tips to guide us through the desig...
n process and ensured delivery of a high-quality product. One suggestion I would give is to the consumer – take her up on the offer to print the addresses on your envelopes, it really was a perfect final touch to a simply elegant pocket invitation. Our WOW factor was so high, that when we were in need, we used the Design Brewery to create last minute invitations, and Cari designed and delivered quickly so we could continue with our wedding planning. I definitely recommend this company for your invitations and special print projects.
My fiancee and I found The Design Brewery on Etsy while trying to find a Save The Date/Invitations design for our nautical themed wedding. We loved the designs from the beginning a...
nd ultimately decided to go with them. We started the process to get a digital design for the save the dates since we want to do magnets, and ask questions about the invitations as well. Well, I can't say enough good things about The Design Brewery! Cari was super responsive (almost immediately!), was very thorough in her responses, and we were able to get an invitation sample ordered and a save the date custom designed within a couple days, including proofs and some minor changes. We're so impressed by the quick turnaround and the quality of the work, we will definitely be getting our invitations from Design Brewery!
Cari did a fantastic job on our Save the Dates and Wedding invitations. She made them beautifully and everyone loved them. We especially loved the rustic look. This was the best de...
cision we made in choosing Cari to make our special invitations. We loved everything!!
I loved working with Cari! I found her by searching through, what felt like, hundreds of invitations online. I knew as soon as I found her page that she would be the vendor I used ...
for my invites.
Working with her was so easy. She promptly responded to all of my questions and her customer service is top notch.
The samples that Cari sent over were beyond helpful. I couldn’t get an idea of the different paper types from online and my husband wanted to actually see an invitation in person b...
efore we decided. Cari sent over multiple samples and a color card which was amazing because sometimes colors look different on the computer than when printed. This made our choice easy!
Cari (from The Design Brewery) was GREAT!! Very thorough and made sure I would LOVE my invitations. They arrived quickly and exactly as expected. I've already received many complim...
