MOST UNIQUE INVITATION
Jami Buzinski and Jason Zak - Married on August 21st in Chicago
Black, Yellow and White was a popular color palette last season and Jami and Jason made the most of it. Their pocket held a custom pattern that matched their linens and it was printed offset onto Paper Source's Luxe Fino White stock. There is a rich texture to this paper and they ended up with a luxe look and feel. A buttercup ribbon finished the look, LOVED these.
SWEETEST COUPLE
Kathryn Kull and Phil Utterback - Married on September 4th in St. Joseph's, MI
I met Kathryn and Phil in late June and unfortunately, their stationer had gotten very ill and could not do their wedding invitations as planned. Jackie Gaik of Jack Design referred them to me (Thanks Jackie!), and I wanted to do a good job for them.
Kathryn and Phil were just so laid back and easy to work with! Even though it was a destination wedding to St. Joe's, Michigan (these kinds of weddings are usually very time consuming and require a ton of back and forth... On top of everything there wasn't much time to get them out and it was taking place over Labor Day weekend), they made decisions quickly and fully trusted my direction in areas where they were unsure.
Their invitations came out awesome and I ended up doing their table numbers and place cards as well. Thanks Katie and Phil, I had a great time working with you.
BEST FEEDBACK
Tara and Sam Hergott - Married on November 13th in Illinois
Tara was/is a sweetie pie! She gave me a 5-star review on Yelp, sent me pictures of her wedding, AND sent me a thank you card with pics of her and her new hubby! I am SO appreciative. There is so much going on sometimes that I'll never hear from a client again after working with them so closely for such a long time. I hope I can work with Tara again in the future and I am wishing she and Sam all the best in love and life!
Check out the work I did for Tara in our blogpost feature.
MOST FUN I HAD ON A PROJECT
Kerry Duffy and P.J. Tavarczky - Married on July 9th in Chicago
Kerry and P.J. were the cutest couple! They had clear ideas of what they wanted all the way around. Their invitations were also very unique, but their place cards even more so. Kerry is a school teacher and decided to cut out numbers and asked me to actually write the guests names on the numbers. They were affixed to a bed of flowers and displayed for guests at the reception.

I had SO much fun writing on these numbers! It was a challenge to fit all the letters of the guests names in an aesthetically pleasing way, but I enjoyed every minute of it. Nice to do something different every once in a while.
MOST ADORABLE INVITE
Nina Ballantine Baby Shower Invite - March 6th in Illinois
This invitation is high on the "Ooh" and "Aww" meter! For some reason, the baby shower invitations that I do have been among my most creative work. I actually pitched this idea to another mother-to-be and they couldn't afford them, so I was very excited to be able to finally reveal this brown baby to the world!
