The Organized Bride

Sam is so sweet and did an absolutely fantastic job with my invitations and programs!! The Organized Bride is the way to go for any of your stationary needs. She helped me find the right style that fit my wedding and made everything so super easy.

The Organized Bride did an AMAZING job with my invitations! They turned out better than I had imagined and she made the process so simple. Sam kept me informed through the entire process which helps take some of the stress of planning a wedding off your back!

The service we received from Sam was fantastic! She was responsive, accommodating and extremely easy to work with. The invitations, programs, and escort cards were AMAZING...absolutely gorgeous!  You simply cannot get this type of customer service and quality online. I highly recommend the Organized Bride!

Sam did a wonderful job with our Rehearsal Dinner Invitations and Escort Cards (which were very intricate!)! She made the whole process very easy.... listened to what I envisioned...and then produced it! Magic! The invitations were exactly what I had in mind and very high quality...and SO cute. The escort cards were also exactly as imagined and I got so many compliments! Sam was very easy to work with, always on time and took everything in stride. She is amazing and I would recommend her highly.

I thought ordering wedding invitations was going to be so difficult, but Sam made it so easy. With plenty of sample styles and colors on display, she made it so easy. I ordered save the date postcards, invitations, table numbers, seating assignment cards, and program fans. She offered great suggestions and was amazing to work with. I would recommend The Organized Bride to any bride.

Sam at The Organized Bride did such an amazing on my wedding invitations and wedding programs!! She was an absolute pleasure to work with. She was so patient and so responsive during the whole process. I couldn't be happier with the results and I received so many compliments. I would definitely recommend the Organized Bride to all brides!!

Sam at The Organized Bride was one of my favorite vendors to work with! We ordered rehearsal dinner and wedding invitations, place cards, menus, and program fans. Everything turned out even prettier than I expected! Sam had a lot of great suggestions, and she made the entire process super easy. I had a difficult time with other vendors regarding their response time, but Sam always got back to me right away and was professional about everything. Most importantly, she just wanted us to be happy with the products! We got so many compliments on all of our products from The Organized Bride! Thank you, Sam!!

The Organized Bride did a wonderful job on our invitations, programs, and place cards!! They turned out beautifully. I would highly recommend this business!!

Absolutely love The Organized Bride! Invitations were exactly what I wanted and the process was super easy. Sam kept me informed every step of the way. LOVE LOVE LOVE!

Sam was absolutely amazing!! I worked with her to create my dream invitation based on a photo and what she came up with was even better than I could have wished for!! Sam was very helpful, creative, and made this process so easy! She created my invitations ahead of schedule, which is always helpful for the bride :) Highly, highly recommend!

My husband and I recently worked with Samantha at the Organized Bride on our wedding invitations, and we could not have had a better experience. We arranged for an appointment to visit the shop, and were shown a wide variety of attractive invitation options. Samantha and another colleague sat down with us for an hour and walked us through our selections for every aspect of our invitations, competently answering any and all questions, and allowing us to totally control the details of our product. They offered helpful suggestions when needed, but otherwise gave us total freedom to make selections, and took careful notes of all of our preferences. We were also informed of material costs each step of the way as we made our selections, so there were no surprises! Not long after our meeting, Samantha sent us our invitation proofs to review, giving us two different options to look at and choose from. We made those choices, and later also supplied her with our information for accommodations, etc. After all pertinent information had been supplied, Samantha invited us back to the shop to review physical copies of our invitations, accommodations cards, RSVP cards, and envelopes to give our final approval. Everything was absolutely gorgeous! We couldn't have been happier with the results (I think they are the most beautiful wedding invitations I have personally seen.) Samantha was so professional every step of the way, and the product is well beyond what I could have hoped for, and all for a reasonable price! The Organized Bride is an excellent choice of business to work with.

I had a great experience with The Organized Bride. Samantha was an absolute pleasure to work with and was so accommodating! I had a very specific design in mind and she was able to turn my vision into a reality!

The Organized Bride created fabulous invitations for my sisters bridal shower. I received great customer service! All emails were returned promptly by either Samantha or the owner herself, Heidi. I would highly recommend this company!!!

My daughter used the Organized Bride for her wedding several years ago. We were so pleased with everything that when it came time for her baby shower I thought of them immediately! Samantha was wonderful to work with. Everything I ordered was perfect! I always looked forward to going to the shop, because it's so beautifully decorated! The Organized Bride is truly a Frederick treasure!

My daughter and I cannot say enough kind things and glowing compliments about Samantha and the Organized Bride. She was so patient and willing to accommodate us at every turn, and extremely helpful with the choice and accommodating our budget. The invitations/table cards, etc. are stunning! We've begun to receive RSVPs, and all our invitees have been very impressed with the quality and beauty of the paper, the colors, etc. The look is very high-end, but the price was VERY reasonable.

The Organized Bride is under new management and Samantha couldn't have been more helpful. I would recommend The Organized Bride to everyone. I decided to get married in March and started planning the beginning of Feburary. Samantha worked with me and all my picky ideas and made all my invitations I needed in 3 days so I could get them sent out. She even had my envelopes before the invitations so I could go ahead and start filling those out. They also had every color and design you could imagine. I could not have had a better experience. Thank you Sam for helping me in my time crunch. You are the best :)

The Organized Bride is under new ownership. Heidi and her staff were absolutely wonderful to work with!! They sat down with my sister and I and helped us to personalize every single detail of the invites. There were so many different paper colors to match any wedding, and fonts to match any bride's taste. If I ever had a question or concern, my emails got returned by Heidi or Samantha right away. The staff here are so attentive and you can tell they truly love what they do. Everything came out perfectly and I'm so glad that I chose to go with The Organized Bride for my invitations. I will DEFINITELY be returning to customize some fans for my guests at the ceremony.

The quality of work of my Save the Dates were great, but Tara was very unorganized which added a lot of tension which isn't exactly what you want for stressful wedding planning. She made numerous mistakes when getting the proofs together which lead to my Save the Dates being mailed out later than desired. She also wasn't so good at responding to e-mails in a timely fashion. I wouldn't recommend using her and found Wedding Paper Divas online to be a wiser choice for invitations.

I ordered both invitations and programs from The Organized Bride. Tara, is extremely nice and easy to work with. The Organized Bride offers so many choices for both invitations and programs as well as many options to help personalize your products. The prices are very reasonable and unlike many other places, you can order the exact number of invites/programs that you need-no ordering in increments of 25 which is a huge plus. Both my invitations and programs were gorgeous. However, both products were not ready in the time frame that was promised. It didn't bother me so much with the invitations because I had ordered them so far in advance but I didn't receive all of my programs until the day before my wedding (they were scheduled to be done 11 days before the wedding). Not only were the products not ready in time, but proofs were also not emailed in the time frame promised. It was VERY difficult to get in touch with Tara. She had a difficult time returning emails in a timely manner and sometimes never at all. The voicemail box for the company was constantly full so I was never able to leave a message for them. As much as I absolutely loved everything they made for me, the lack of communication and late delivery dates caused a lot of unnecessary anxiety.

We used The Organized Bride for our Save the Dates, invitations, programs, menus, and thank you cards and they all looked beautiful. Tara was great to work with. She sent us numerous proofs of everything and made each item perfect! We got so many comments on how nice everything looked, especially the invitations and programs. It was nice to keep the same design and theme throughout the entire wedding!

The Organized Bride made all of our wedding invitations along with ceremony programs. These both turned out wonderful, we had many compliments from our guests. This is a mother/daughter team and at times they can be extremely hard to get a hold of. There were many of times where I had sent multiple emails because I received no response. I do understand that during wedding season there can be many things to do but communication is the line of all businesses, if the proofs aren't finished just respond and say so !!

This mother daughter team is spectacular! For getting to design your own invitation, place cards and programs it was worth what we paid. Everyone and I mean everyone that saw these items were blown away.

My invitations were gorgeous and Tara was fabulous to work with!

Loved my invitations. Tara was professional and responsive eventhough they were in the middle of moving locations.

Tara Franklin, at The Organized Bride, is a creative force! She did all of our wedding printing and I couldn't have been more thrilled with her beautiful work. She has a lovely new shop filled with gorgeous things. We went a couple of times to choose our design and colors. I already knew in my mind exactly what I wanted and we were able to put it together from an in-house design that they have. She designed the most lovely things for us, exactly to our specs. I still hear comments on our beautiful printing. She is a very, very busy lady, but she will work with you. She actually had to hand deliver the last part of our order to our venue on the day before our wedding because something had to be re-done. I highly recommend The Organized Bride. The name is appropriate!

I worked with Tara at the Organized Bride to make my wedding invitations exactly 12 weeks before our wedding. She did EVERYTHING it took to get me those invitations on time so that I could send it out 10 weeks before my wedding date because she knew I was concerned about getting them to my guests since I got married on Labor Day weekend. INCLUDING, driving all the way out from Frederick, MD to Bethesda, MD on Father's Day. Where else are you going to find a vendor with that sort of dedication? Our invitations, a pocket folder style, were ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS! EVERYONE complimented us on them. Many people told us they were the most gorgeous invitations they had ever seen, and I agree (although I might be biased!). The quality craftsmanship in these hand made invitations totally exceeded any of my expectations. They were totally affordable as well considering the weight and number of layers and inserts we had. I worked with Tara to make these invitations at the very high point of wedding season, while she was in the middle of relocating her store location. She was a bit slow in responding to emails, and I sometimes felt I needed to call or email her a few times before I heard back from her. But if I had to do it all over again, I would in a heartbeat! The quality and gorgeousness of our invitations made it all worth it! And yes, she is TOTALLY worth the drive to Frederick, MD!

My husband and I were married this past June 16th. Because of some last minute details I had to work out I was a little late on ordering my invitations. I contacted Tara in a hurry desperate for help. She was AMAZING! She was completely busy with moving her store to a new location, but she still took the time to help me with her busy schedule. She is so hands on and personable. I was so stressed about the invitations, but she took on the challenge and relieved so much stress I had. I have and will continue to recommend her to friends and family.

Working with Tara at Organized Bride made the procces of our invitations so much easier! We were going to do it ourselves but thought we should just get a quote from a professional place, plus we had seen some of OB's samples at a bridal show and really liked them. After we got the quote we found it wouldn't be that much cheaper to do it on our own, at it would take a ton more time! Tara helped us design beautiful invitations and helped with all of our questions. She even addressed our envelopes. All we had to do was stuff them and send them. It was a pleasure working with Organized Bride.

Tara is absolutely amazing to work with. She'll walk you through each step of the process for all your wedding invitation and program needs.

They did a beautiful job on my invitations, programs, menu cards and thank you cards. Very pleasant to work with and very creative. I received so many compliments on my invitations. Highly recommend.

Beautiful invitations, no idea on the cost though

Tara was so awesome to work with! Tara helped us create all of our own unique stationary. We got so many compliments on our beautiful fall invitations. She is so sweet, we just loved her!

Tara was very knowledgeable and helpful when it came time to order save the dates and invitations. She helped to point me in the direction that I wanted with layout, wording, and colors. I highly recommend working with Tara for you wedding stationary needs!

We had started our invitation search by trying the DIY route and working with a quality paper company and a separate printer. Too hard! We found that for about the same price, we could order beautiful invitations from TOB. We went to Tara just a few short weeks before we wanted the invitations in the mail. She made it happen for us! We later returned to order the program fans (a big hit!) and the escort easel. Everything was beautiful and Tara was always pleasant to work with. FYI - It gets very busy on Saturdays. I would recommend going on a weekday afternoon.

Tara (and mom) did our gorgeous wedding invitations and programs - absolutely beautiful! My mom had cute shower invitations printed there as well. Tara was a delight to work with and really helped with this overwhelming process. Our guests loved the program fans! Highly recommend - thanks, Tara!

I ordered about 150 invitations from here. This is a really cute boutique in downtown Frederick. I didn't really like the whole idea of ordering invitations online, so I found this place on the web. My fiance, mother, and maid of honor went with me and we had a blast picking out invitations. You sit at a consultation table and they bring over books of samples, have all the fonts/colors available to see in person and the consultant helped me narrow down some choices based on what I described. It took us about 2 hours to pick out invitations, decide on wording, and place the order. Proofs were sent through email for me to review and I was able to have the envelopes printed by providing them with my invite list. Be sure to make an appointment before going.

Our invitations came out so well as a result of the personal service and care from The Organized Bride. Everyone complimented us on how beautiful and unique they were. Tara even helped me to make a last minute change (effortlessly) which I was certainly grateful for. And - the store has hundreds of options and can help with any stationery you may need.

From the invitation to the place cards, wedding stationary has always been one of the things I thought would tell the story of our wedding the best. I happen to find another fan of the same in Tara. As one of the first brides to use their Envelopments line of invitations I was beyond satisfied. The line allows you to personalize every inch of your design from fonts to graphics to ribbon. Then, we easily carried all those elements into our programs, table numbers, place cards and even favor stickers! And let me not forget I also ordered a variety of other wedding necessities (ring bearer pillows, ribbon and wedding party gifts) too. Amazing service, pricing and attention to detail was given every step of the process.

Our invitation came out beautifully, a little bit late but overall was OK.

We married this past summer near Frederick, MD. When we started wedding preparations - we came across an article in the paper about The Organized Bride. My now husband and I stopped by with little expectation since we didn't have much luck with other venues finding invitations (we found it to be very overwhelming in many stores - and those staff weren't trained on to 'help' us order, only to point us to a binder and tell us to 'look' through the book). Upon first glance, the store is adorable and has an array of things needed on your wedding day - so it enticed me from the get-go. The co-owner (Tara) met with us and was absolutely wonderful. She showed us invitation options by working around our initial thoughts and showed us a plethora of sample invitations. Her prices were very affordable - especially for those of us who are not crafty ourselves to make our own invitations. Additionally, she helped us with the verbiage to display in our invitations - we had NO clue how to word things, what type of information we needed to provide, etc. We had such a great experience ordering our invitations with her, and also noticed her prices on in-house printing were quite reasonable - so we used The Organized Bride to purchase our wedding programs, table numbers, escort cards, and favor cards. (All of which btw, we originally planned to create on our own.) Throughout the process, Tara and the team there were wonderful. The staff was always friendly and patient, and she was able to send me proofs via email since I live in DC and was unable to meet frequently in Frederick. When my invitations were delivered (I ordered booklets, with inserts and specialized personalization cards for each guest) The Organized Bride put everything together for us - which I was NOT expecting. It was so great to pick up the invitations and not have to worry about gluing the personalized names to each invitation. For in-house printing, she was able to pull JUST the right colors and everything matched and flowed together perfectly! We received so many comments on the overall look and quality of our printed materials. In a business (wedding business) where my husband and I have found not all vendors to be 1. patient, 2. happy or 3. trustworthy - we were so happy that we received all from this store. I never had a doubt that our orders would be ordered and delivered exactly the way we wanted them - which was such a huge stress reliever. I highly recommend this store to anyone looking to plan a wedding. They have such a wide array of options to provide printing support, in addition to so many other items - that I found it to be one of our best Vendor experiences. When we have other printing needs, we plan to work through The Organized Bride again because they are 100% reliable.

Beautiful.

I visited The Organized Bride several times during my wedding planning process, and purchased many of my wedding accessories there. They have a great variety of wedding products that aren't readily available in the Frederick area. The only thing keeping the rating from a perfect '5' is some of the prices are a bit more than I was expecting, but the service was always FANTASTIC!

Originally, I was going to try and print all of my stationary for the wedding. But I was in a time crunch and opted to have everything made. I am SO happy I did. Tara helped me with invitations/programs/seating cards/ and table numbers. She kept everything in my price range. You can definitely be extravagant or conservative with many options in each price range. She was great - very helpful. If you are considering making your stationary... make sure you have enough time and the right resources or it can be a headache. A cousin of mine just experienced it. I would recommend going to see Tara!
