I love that at the front of the store they had some paraphernalia from different zip codes around Richmond. It was a great way to represent your specific community and get some "swag" that would be fun to share with your friends and family. If you are in the area, you can certainly stop by for some nice pens, papers, cards, bags, and gifts. The staff was great and super friendly. They were also super helpful.

This little gem of a shop is Bon Air's best kept secret. I had gone to a local wedding expo and…read morecame across their literature. After peaking at their website and Instagram I was intrigued so I had to go in. Walking into the store is a paper addicts match made in heaven. They have the best selection of stationary and they will even personalize it for you! Bonus: TheyThey will even wrap your gifts at Christmas! I cannot wait to come back for that alone. Unfortunately I was not able to make an appointment before stopping in, but they were able to accommodate me and my fiancé anyway, since we came in before their late afternoon appointment that day. We sat down with Holly and discuss different options for our wedding invitations. we had spoken with her about potentially personalizing our wedding invitations to fit our wedding theme. Holly was really understanding and showed us so many wonderful examples she had we could use. We felt really at ease with her and ended up talking with her about her creating a design for us based on some images we had of our inspiration for our big day. She was able to create a few masterpieces from the ideas we had and some examples she already had created before and gave us a great invite, using our wedding colors. Once we had our design ideas together, Holly went to work designing our invites. We received an emailed template of what the invites would look like. After a few minor adjustments, we paid and they were printed! It took a couple of weeks to get everything back but it was packaged perfectly for us to assemble with ease. If you need wedding invites, corporate invites or something simple as a family reunion or birthday invite, this is the place to go!!

The prices are a little higher compared to other boutiques in the area but their selection is huge and they offer gift wrapping onsite. Parking is plentiful so if you are looking for a unique gift or want to walk off your River City diner breakfast, I recommend stopping into Sassy Bee. It also seems like they have customer appreciation sales/specials often so it might be worth it to sign up.
