Laura is an absolute pleasure to work with! Her work is beautifully done, with every detail just perfect. She has so many great styles to choose from, it was hard to decide. Laura was professional, always responded promptly and was so nice to deal with every step of the process. I received my envelopes beautifully wrapped in gorgeous paper, tied with a satin ribbon, which made opening them even more exciting! Every envelope was done with perfection. I would absolutely use Laura again, and I highly recommend her!

I don’t even know where to start with my praise for the exceptional customer service I received from Creative Montage. I used them for a monogram for my wedding. Simple and very affordable. First of all, they have a huge selection of standard monograms as well as custom. I chose standard ones and had them well within the two week time frame given. I had A LOT of trouble getting them to work on my computer. This is not a common problem, I seem to always have these problems but Aimee was FABULOUS! We emailed back and forth more than 10 times troubleshooting. She did everything she could to help and finally we found a solution and I was able to use my monograms. She was so helpful, never made me feel bad for asking for help, and it was the owner of the company taking the time and effort for a $4 monogram!! You will not be dissapointed if you use Creative Montage!

I would highly recommend Laura Hooper Calligraphy to all brides looking for a perfect save the date!
As soon as I started working with Laura I was amazed that it was Laura herself e-mailing me and helping me customize my save the dates. Not only did my save the dates come out exacty the way I wanted, the customer service was absolutely fantastic. It was a great feeling not to be rushed, it seemed extremely important for Laura to have her customers happy (I wish that happened more often in wedding planning).
The save the dates for our Bermuda wedding are beautiful and very appropriate for my fiance and me. It was great to be able to be a part of customizing something that means so much, and a lot of paper companies don’t allow that.
After the experience I had with the save the dates, I look forward to working with Laura and her team on other paper products for my wedding, it was an absolute pleasure!

I got engaged May of this year.
After all the celebration and shock had gone the whole wedding planning started. At first, like many newly engaged girl, I just became overwhelmed with all the possibilities, decisions, and options I had with such a vast Industry as that of weddings. For me the easiest decision I have had to make so far was on the Invitations. I looked at several vendors where I live, Puerto Rico, and the options where nice but they just didn’t convince me. They where either too pricey or just not my taste, I then turned to the greatest invention of the 20th century, the internet. After spending about an hour googling for invitations that met my taste and wallet I finally found Laura’s site! I instantly knew her work was right for me!

Laura Hooper is a super talented calligraphist from California, her work really speaks for itself. She not only has great taste but her work is really versatile, affordable (she has a wide range of prices) and she is very professional. When I first contacted Laura she answered me right away, and it was so through out the whole process. From the start she understood what I wanted, and gave me great opinions on what she thought would look best. I wanted my invitations to be very simple, yet elegant and with a subtle “beachy” feeling, and thats exactly what I got! I also got my invitations right away, a little over a week after I aproved the proofs. I have to say that I am really satisfied with the result, and withe the service.

I would definitely recommend Laura’s work to anyone who wants beautiful and unique invitations!
You can check out her website, which is beautifully done by the way, to find out more about her and see her work.

Cheers,
Pamela Baez, form Puerto Rico

Working with Aimee of Creative Montage was the most stress free and pleasant experience that I ever had with any vendor. I came to her on a serious time crunch because my previous stationer could not provide the services she promised and I had to let her go 2 weeks before my invitations had to go out. Talk about a major panic having to search for another stationer that can produce quality work with barely any time… When I contacted Aimee she responded promptly and within a day she had quite a few designs for me to choose from that went perfectly with my venetian masquerade theme wedding reception. Please go to her works in progress page and take a look under “McClinton”. She designed my invitation suite, programs, menus, table numbers and thank you tags. Creative Montage not only designed all of this, but delivered all so that I was able to send out my invitations on time. Each piece of her design was so elegant and completely gorgeous that I couldn’t wait to use them. I’ve gotten rave reviews on the invitations and I have had a lot of people call and ask me who did I use as my stationer. A lot of people kept the programs and everything as keepsakes. I give my highest recommendation to Creative Montage because not only do you get quick and courteous service. You receive a product with such great quality, that you will be receiving compliments over and over again. Thank you Creative Montage for helping make the wedding of our dreams.

I contacted Miriam of LimoncelloSTYLE about designing my invitations for my wedding. After a preliminary email about my budget and logistical issues, Miriam and I connected via telephone. Instantly it was like talking to an old friend. Miriam quickly understood my vision, mainly by being able to ask me the right questions. She inquired about colors, decorations, my wedding gown- things I wouldn’t have thought mattered for my invitations. A week later I received three mock-up designs via email and I was blown away. All three designs were visual statements of my vision for my wedding. After deciding on a design, wording and numbers Miriam had the finished product shipped to me within a week. Miriam even sent me photos of the progress she was making, so I could feel involved 2000 miles away! I was impressed by her designs, her courtesy, her prices, everything she had to offer. I will be using Miriam again for personalized cards and announcments!

Aimee at creative montage is incredible! I worked with her on my wedding invitations, placecards, and thank you cards, and a wedding newsletter with info for out of town guests. I could not have been happier. Right from the start she “got” the look I wanted for the wedding and was able to create clever, unique designs that fit my theme perfectly. She always worked quickly, and could come up with a variety of choices for me to pick from which I found really helpful. I live abroad, and it was ideal to have an online format to view her work and any changes she made (based on my suggestions) immediately. What’s more, she was willing to work with me and my budget and was happy for me to do some of the printing myself where it made sense- saving me money and making me very happy! I got so many compliments on the various parts of the stationery- I can’t recommend Creative Montage highly enough!

There are not enough words to describe the awesomeness that is of Courtney at Flush Designs. At first, I really didn’t care much when it came to the invitation aspect of the wedding since all I thought that was out there were the typical pastel, floral patterns, and cursive lettering which all are not my style. I didn’t think there would be a designer that would understand my desire to have a creative and unique wedding invite. But after meeting with Courtney, she got me excited about everything paper. She really was able to grasp me and my hubby’s personality and design aesthetics and brilliantly incorporated all of that into her designs. She would take my ideas and run with them and the result would turn out even better than I imagined. She was able to tie our design theme throughout our entire wedding which all my guests took notice and were impressed. The invites alone, all my guests were so blown away on how original and creative they looked but also commented on how the invites really reflected our personalities. So mission accomplished! She was so easy and fun to work with - probably the best aspect my husband and I enjoyed the most from the entire planning process. I would highly recommend - if you’re looking for something simple to something out of the box, Courtney has an amazing talent that delivers! (insert bowing down motion here.)
