Customer Love Notes

El's work is INCREDIBLE! I hired El to make all of my wedding paper goods for my 2022 wedding, and I can't find the words to properly articulate how immensely thankful I am that I found her.

I just wanted to send my compliments on the Boston Marathon note cards. I’m running the Marathon this spring for charity, and I’ve been
using the cards for my thank you notes.

I can say without a doubt that working with El was my favorite part of the wedding planning experience.

I received “your” cards
from four friends this Christmas —all of whom I introduced your cards to and
asked “please share”. None of them know each other.

Keep enjoying what you do and thank you for sharing your gift with the rest of us.

During our wedding planning process, El provided so many great ideas about personalizing various pieces of our stationery and paper goods. Working with El was incredibly easy and her timeline kept us on track.
