When we first started looking at wedding invitations, we attempted to try looking online. We tried multiple websites, but knew that online wasn't for us. We had no idea where to start or how to make our vision of our wedding invitations come to life. We started researching and found the Paperbag. As soon as we called the Paperbag, Libby and Liz were so communicative and we were able to go in for an appointment quickly to start designing our wedding invitations! Libby showed us various options and helped us find the perfect wedding invitations. She spent so much time with us and even after closing after we had left to quickly send us a proof! The invitations were absolutely beautiful for our fall October wedding and we received so many compliments on them! We were so grateful to work with Liz and Libby and highly recommend looking into the Paperbag for your wedding invitations!
My invitations we printed beautifully and Liz was SO helpful and quick to respond. She worked on getting my invitations done well past when her shop closed for the day. Liz helped me fix my whole invitation suite and got them to me super quickly because I was really late in ordering.
When we started to look for invitations, the first thing we did was go online. I honestly thought it was the only option these days. However, we quickly realized that method was not for us. We needed a little more guidance. So we brought up Google to see if in-person stationary stores still existed. Lo and behold we found the Paperbag! It was a joy working with Liz. She really helped us consider all of our options and made sure all the details were correct before we printed. It was wonderful to have such a personal touch on such an important wedding detail.
When I started looking at invitations I knew I didn't want to buy them online. I wanted that personal experience and then I found The Paperbag in Allentown. Alida, Liz and Libby were amazing. Alida spent hours with us looking for the perfect invitation. Libby took care of us at our final appointment which took hours for us to make final choices and she was so supportive and patient. Then the pandemic hit right in the middle of our order being proofed. Liz was amazing! Any changes we wanted to make were never an issue for her, she just wanted us to be happy. She had the invitations sent to our home then we did a Zoom tutorial and she showed me how to assemble the invitations which turned out perfect. Now she's going to be addressing our envelopes for us too. The Paperbag is full of wonderful people that go above and beyond to make sure you are happy with the final product! Thank you Alida, Libby, and Liz for making our experience so rewarding!
With all of the online options for invitations, my daughter was going to order her invitations and paper needs for her wedding online and sent away for a few samples. I told her I thought it would be great if we could find a local store with invitation books that we could browse through to really see and feel the quality like I had done 25 years ago for my wedding. Not sure these stores still existed I googled and found The Paperbag. I am SO GLAD we did!!! This experience may have been one of the best throughout the whole wedding planning. Liz is knowledgeable, helpful, kind and creative. She goes out of her way to help you think of every detail and does not try to push extra quantities. In fact, we should have listened better to her advice because we have extra napkins and programs- both of which I ordered more of to be safe when she advised she thought I had enough. She also created incredible table numbers using pictures of the couple and scanned and created them. They were so well received. I can not recommend this store highly enough- I can’t wait to have another event to plan so we can work again with Liz.
A company (that I won't name) messed up my escort cards, not once, but two times. Needless to say, I found myself in the middle of an escort card emergency two days before my wedding.
I contacted Paperbag, and spoke with Alida, who immediately brought my blood pressure back down. Within an hour, she had all of our escort cards printed and in alphabetical order, ready for pickup. They were beautifully done and exactly what I wanted, and I can't thank Alida enough for working miracles that day!
Liz at The Paperbag was amazing to work with! She was patient, incredibly helpful, responsive, and accommodating throughout the entire process. Our invitations were exactly what we envisioned at an affordable price! I would recommend The Paperbag to anyone!
So happy I decided to use the paperbag for my wedding stationary. Liz was so helpful! Our invitations were beautiful! She also was able to put a rush on printing our place cards! Would highly recommend! So easy to work with and so helpful!
So happy I got my invitations here! Liz was extremely helpful especially when I had a meltdown thinking I picked the wrong invitations. She made sure that I was 100% happy with the design and colors. The end result was beautiful and I couldn't be happier. I now have a framed invitation in my apartment and I love looking at the beautiful memory. Thanks, Liz!
Alida helped my fiance and I to pick out our wedding invitations and wording and we couldn't be more pleased! Liz was great with sending proofs to make sure everything was exactly how we wanted it! She gave very helpful tips and was very responsive with emails. From start to finish, we had such a positive experience!
I was very fortunate to order my wedding invitations from The Paperbag. The owner, Liz, was incredibly helpful, professional, informative, and very patient throughout the process! I knew I wanted something classic and simple but... aside from that, I was not sure how else to explain what I was looking for. She allowed us to review books upon books of invitations to help me find my ideal invitation.
Not only was I able to find the PERFECT invitation, but Liz provided us with support as we determined the best wording for our invitations and how to address our envelopes. She was very helpful as we made small changes to our invitations and even suggested a calligrapher nearby to address our envelopes. Liz and all the employees at The Paperbag made the start of our wedding planning process so easy while also being helpful with the smallest of details. Thank you, Liz and thank you, Paperbag!
We didn't want anything doily or frilly. We wanted our invitations to look modern and clean cut. We were also working under a tight budget. Liz helped us to navigate the rules of etiquette while picking the perfect invitations for us.
Liz did a wonderful job with our invitations, programs and table cards. She kept is simple and elegant just the way I wanted it.
Liz from Paperbag did a wonderful job with all my "paper" need, From save the date and invites and even programs. After we would order something we would alway get it really quick! Everything looked beautiful!
I used The Paperbag for my invitations, programs, place cards, and guest room bags. Liz was wonderful to work with and highly knowledgeable when it came to designing and wording everything. The quality of everything that I ordered was outstanding. I loved everything and will use The Paperbag in the future.
My invitations were gorgeous and Liz was such a big help! We had a lot of fun chosing them, and they were perfect when they arrived!
I went to The Paperbag for our invitations, place cards, and thank you notes. When we told them what we were looking for, they kept handing us books that were nothing like what we had asked for. The one woman stood over us eating pretzels in our ears. We finally found what we were looking for. We purchased them during a 20% off sale. We were told that they would be in within a few weeks and the owner, Liz, said they never take that long. The time frame came and passed without a phone call. Finally, we called and were told they weren't in because it took her longer to submit our order because she was busy. Understandable that you're busy, but we have a time frame to get the invitations out and we were told a time frame that was acceptable for that and it was ignored. When we got our invitations, we were told that the postage would be more expensive. We had chosen the ones we did because we were told that they would not be extra postage. The owner then argued with me that they would NEVER tell someone that - turns out they told a co-worker of mine the exact same thing.
The time came for our place cards to be printed. My now husband went to pick them up and did not look at them when he picked them up. He brought them home and I looked at them - there was a printer line through them. They looked ridiculous. My husband called her and told her and she agreed to call the company and have a new set overnighted and she re-printed all of our placecards and refunded the cost to print the place cards (about $50).
I would recommend going to The Paperbag to look through their books. Find which invitations you would like and write down the carrier and product number. Even with the 20% discount, I found that we overpaid for the invitations.
So much to choose from at the Paperbag but Liz is there to help you every step of the way, from design to wording she was extremely helpful!
