Apparently many people have horror stories dealing with their invitation vendors, but this seems to be a good pick if you want a hassle free experience. I made an appointment for Sunday and spent almost 2 hours going through binders upon binders of samples. Karen was helpful, but not over bearing and didn't rush me to make a decision. They have a good selection and a decent range in prices as well. A few things that annoyed me: 1) She is not open on Friday evenings or Saturday. She told me she is usually not open on Sundays eigther and that she basically was doing me a favor. I was told to come in on a weekday before 7pm. I'm sorry but what wedding vendor isn't open on at least 1 weekend day? I understand the religious observances thing, but then Sundays she should be open. Its really inconvenient for me to have to rush from work and be stressed about getting there on time. 2) She could have been a little warmer about the whole thing...I was by myself and could have used some input. It's overwhelming enough to have to pick just 1 invitation from a million options, but not having someone offer you their opinion, or at least guide you through the selection process is them not doing their job. To me it seemed like it was more about my budget (which is obviously a big factor), but then show me your favorite's within my suggested price range and tell me what your best sellers are. I understand that invitations are an individualized thing, but if she's been in business for a long time I'm sure she has a lot of experiences dealing with people like me. Overall, good vendor I would suggest using her!

It was very hard to get in touch with Karen and we received our invitations late which caused…read moreawkwardness when we had to ask for RSVP cards back right away and we wanted to do B-list invitations. She pushed for a certain font and style on the invites but when we got our proofs, we ended up just going with our original requests - we had to pay for another proof and it created more delay in getting the final product. The store closed without warning for a week when we expected our invites and we were not warned how long it would take to assemble our invitations. She did make it a priority during the week the store closed to make sure we got our invites. However, when payment was wanted, we were rushed to pay and received no slack for the delay and lack of communication. Wedding planning is a stressful time and vendors that hold your hand instead of treating you like another customer are much more appreciated. Lesson learned is to plan invites very early in the process and expect delays.

The incredible team at Ceci was an absolute pleasure to work with from start to finish! Not only…read morewere their designs astonishingly exquisite and unique (who else would think to pair dazzling deco motifs with moody florals and make this unexpectedly auspicious combo look as if it was always meant to be?), but they also delivered administratively at every turn. Every deadline was hit (critical when you're on the clock to get wedding invitations out!) and edits were turned around quickly and seamlessly. Team Ceci was moreover happily and graciously able to roll with every address change and additional invitation I threw at them (and there were many). I must thank our outstanding account manager, Lindsey, in particular for so swiftly and cheerfully accommodating our every request. The designs Team Ceci turned out for everything from our invitations to our menus, escort cards and more were all just stunning in and of themselves (I'm still drooling!) but also, beautifully and flawlessly coordinated. Not to mention that their calligrapher does some of the absolute best work I've ever seen! I can't recommend this outstanding group enough and look forward to future celebrations so I will have the opportunity to work with them again!

We booked her a year in advance and made a few changes up until last month. Shirley was very accommodating, and during our final meeting we confirmed all the colors and counts. She was organized and offered great suggestions for the family boutonnieres. All the flowers turned out beautifully, and the team did an amazing job matching the colors we asked for. We chose silk flowers for the arch, and they looked even better than real ones. We received so many compliments--everyone was practically fighting to take the centerpieces home! XD The photobooth picture quality was also excellent. Two attendants were available throughout the reception to assist guests, and even our shy older relatives went up to take photos. Everyone received a paper copy, and the team set aside an extra set for us to take home. We also received an online album, which made it easy to download all the photos. We highly recommend Jelo for anyone's wedding or event floral needs.

While this is not a storefront, it is a "by appointment only" shop. After walking inside, there were baskets, trimmings and ribbons galore. This shop puts together custom gifts and designs party favors for special events as well. There are a number of reasons to give them a call - friendly and courteous service, prompt in responding to projects, creativity was off the charts, and the "out of the box" ideas. Cara, the designer I worked with, was so easy to get along with. She was quick to brainstorm how my gift presentation could look like, based on items I brought to her. She added very nice touches and got the colors exactly right. Check out the photo of my Greek Pantry themed gift basket. It looks stunning!! I can't wait to bring it to my event. While I was visiting her space, I could see other projects she was working on and when speaking with her about the items all around her shop, I could see in an instant that I was working with a total professional. Her keen eye for colors, placement, and materials were so creative. Everything she was working on and previous items I saw on her website does not do justice to her services. I was truly impressed. In my photos you'll see the before and after of the stunning basket she made for me. Cara has so many great ideas. I enjoyed working with her. Highly recommend. Appointment only! So be sure to make one. "Custom" is what sets her apart from buying a pre-packaged gift. You will not regret it.
