OUR STORY...
It is hard to pinpoint when my hobby
turned into a flourishing business that I now share with my sister...but it's
safe to say that the hobby began several years ago when my best friend
Danielle got engaged. I quickly volunteerd to make her wedding invitations. She
lived halfway across the country, which presented a small challenge in
conveying her thoughts and ideas. We met the challenge head on and worked
together to create an amazing final product. From that point forward,
I used any excuse possible to make invitations for everyone I knew! When I
started planning my own wedding, I was discouraged by the boring colors and
cookie-cutter designs in the catalogs and DIY kits, so I started
researching what it would take to turn my hobby into a business. I started out
by selling samples of my work on Ebay. Soon, I had brides from across the United
States and Canada who were purchasing my custom invitations. My sister, Stacy,
started helping with the financial and purchasing side of the business. We
quickly outgrew my home office, took over the basement of my home
and were again, running out of space. Around that time, an employee of
Northeast Ohio's largest wedding magazine -"Today's Bride"-stumbled upon our
work. She encouraged us to start advertising locally. The growth was both
sudden and tremendous! We moved into the Studio in Cuyahoga Falls in early 2006,
originally leasing only a small portion of the first floor. We now occupy the
entire first floor as we continue to grow. We never expected this
level of success in such a short period of time and we are eager to discover
what is in store for 2008!
