THE PREMISE…
After designing my own wedding, I realized how hard it was to find custom designed stationery and decor for weddings. Everything seemed formulaic and designed to appeal to the masses. Or, if it was custom, it seemed like an intimidating and confusing process! My ongoing hope is that Wouldn't it be Lovely can fix that by creating unique and compelling designs using a process that makes your stationery the favorite part of your wedding planning!
What is it?
Wouldn't it be Lovely is all about personalization and customization. If you’re the type of person who doesn’t fit into a template or enjoy spending hours scrolling through a website that mass produces invitations—then you’ve come to the right place. If you love special touches, quality material, and having fun while creating something special—then we should definitely be friends!
You may need your wedding paper goods designed from top to bottom, or perhaps you just need invitations. I’m happy to help no matter what stage in the planning process you’re in. Some of the most common event design elements we work on are: save the dates, invitation suites, escort and place cards, seating displays, photo backdrops, art installations, favor labels, programs, signage and announcements. I don't work from templates, so anything is possible! We can personalize an existing design, or create something completely new for you and your event.
How does it work?
It starts with an email. You may know exactly what you want, which is great, we can work together to make that vision a reality. The more common situation however, is that you know want something special and unique, made especially for you, but you aren't entirely sure how all the things you love will come together. This is when the fun starts! If you’re in Massachusetts, you can come into the studio to meet, but in most cases we’re meeting virtually. We talk, I learn about you, hear all about your wedding plans, what you like, what you hate, what's most important to you, what elements you'll need, and how much you'd like to spend. It's a design diagnostic! After I have a clear idea of what you need, we send along a quote, a project timeline and samples for you to look over. Then, I put together digital proofs. It's a collaborative process, and we go back and forth on the design which means you'll always end up with exactly what you want and more than you could have imagined. There isn't a formula, because people don't fit into perfect little boxes, that's the beauty of it!
Or perhaps there's an existing design that I've created for another couple that you already love. We can personalize it for you, from wording, to colors, to the layout and more to make it fit your event perfectly! This is often a more cost effective option that still yields a very personal and special end product.
You may have a wedding planner, a caterer and florist already picked out, I can work with you and your other vendors to ensure your event comes together seamlessly!
Take a look at the site, see what has been created for other couples. These past events and designs will help give you an idea of what can be done, but don't let what you see, or don't see hold you back. Anything is possible.
