Custom wedding invitations are the BEST way to invite your wedding guests to the most important day of your life. With boutique wedding invitation design, you’re guaranteed to have the highest-quality paperie with intentional design elements that actually reflect you and your fiancé and fit into the overall theme for your wedding day.

It’s time to kiss online wedding invitations or DIY invitations goodbye and send your guests their wedding invitations in style and elegance.

Obviously there is so much that goes into bringing your dream wedding day to life (especially if you’ve been Pinterest-planning for months if not years!) and you probably are more than a little overwhelmed with all of the decisions you have to make.

You’ve chosen a wedding planner. You’ve found your match-made-in-heaven photographer and videographer, and your date is set at the most idyllic wedding venue you’ve ever seen.

Now it’s time to make sure the people you love most know that they’re invited.

You’ve Googled the hell out of “wedding invitations” and “unique wedding stationery” and you keep coming to websites that boast about having these massive selections for invitations, but page after page (after page), you feel like you’ve seen these designs before from your second cousin’s wedding last year, or you’re pretty sure you’ve seen that exact same watercolor eucalyptus leaf at least a dozen times over the years.

Those wedding invitations are impersonal, and let’s be honest — they’re basic as hell.

You’ve also considered going on Canva and just “making it your own” with all of their templates and icons and just making your own DIY invites and getting them printed at… Staples? (Where does someone print their invitations anyway?)

But that route means your invites are likely to look low-quality and — heaven forbid — messy. And that DEFINITELY doesn’t reflect the vibe you’re wanting to achieve for your wedding day.

Enter, E Stokes Creations!

I looked at Minted, I looked at Pinterest, I looked on the Knot… But NOTHING fit me. Nothing matched my wedding’s aesthetic that I was going for. Nothing felt right!

So I decided to take my always-artsy, problem solving and made my own invites. (I’m always joking with my clients — I wish I existed when I got married because I look back at my invites from 2018 and just laugh. I love them but… I could do so much more today with what I’ve learned over the years!)

And that’s what I push to bring to the table for the wedding invitation clients I have served over the years. I bring JOY to the process all while pulling stress off of your plate.

Because isn’t your engagement season supposed to be fun?

When you choose to go custom for your wedding invitations, and have them designed by a professional wedding stationery designer (c’est moi!), you’re going to turn what you thought your wedding invitations could be into something far greater.

Don’t just take my word for it, though.

Have you considered how you want your guests to react when they receive their invitations to your wedding day? You want them to be squealing in excitement from the moment they open their mailbox. You want them to recognize that there’s something in there that isn’t just another bill to be paid.

In their mailbox, in a colorful envelope and
adorned with vintage postage stamps,
is something different. Something exciting.

It’s YOUR wedding invitation.

When we work together, you can rest assured that I take your entire wedding vision (I may even go so far as to say your entire relationship) into mind.

• The florals you went absolutely gaga over? Send them my way.
• Your reception linens with the sweetest patterns? Show me now!
• Your mother’s vintage lace veil you’ll wear when you walk down the aisle? I need pictures like yesterday.

With all of the big and little details of your big day in front of me, I’ll bring all of those elements together to make sure that your wedding invitations are an extension of what your guests will see at your wedding.

Communicate through your custom wedding invitations: this isn’t just another wedding. This is the event of year. And your guests will be falling over themselves with excitement knowing that they are invited!

Because let’s face it.

If you’re planning to invest big in your wedding day, don’t you want the first impression that your guests receive to reflect that and excite them for what’s ahead? This is no small touchpoint. My opinion? Your wedding invites are one of the most important investments you could make for your wedding day. And if it’s that important, then it’s crucial to get it right.

Don’t DIY your way through and look back with a shudder at what you mailed out. Don’t choose what every other bride and her cousin have already mailed out before. Go custom and make your wedding yours from beginning to end.

You only have one wedding day. Do it justice with fine art wedding invitations that are tailored to you and your big day. Your wedding is worth celebrating in style.
