Carnelian Creative

Emily was one of the few invitation vendors I found that really listened to my vision and made it happen at an affordable price! She was able to present my finace and I with several different design options so we were able to pick what we liked the most! She was extremely accomodating and patient with any tweeks I wanted to make. She truely provided a customized invitation. I have received so many compliments on my invitations.

Working with Carnelian was a dream. They were really worked with me to design everything, from save the dates, to invitations, to placecards, table numbers, and gift tags. I wanted to include an intricate lace pattern based on my wedding gown in the stationery, and they took a picture I sent them and turned it into the universal theme for the wedding. Every step of the way, they kept my budget in mind and provided alternative solutions. They even called me from UPS to make sure I was okay with shipping costs.

It was a wonderful experience and I cannot thank them enough.

Emily is professional, helpful, and creative. She gives you great ideas to choose from after the initial consultation and discussion. She has great samples to preview. Emily got digital samples to us quickly as well. Final product was beautiful! Sooooo many compliments!

Carnelian Creative was a fresh affordable option for invitations. Emily was calm and responsive to my sudden envelope shortage and made the requested changes to our invites in an accurate and timely manner. We received many compliments on our invites that indicated they were unique, fun, and "just us". I was very pleased and would use her again in a heartbeat.

Worth the price. All of our stationery turned out to be gorgeous!

I had seen some of Carnelian's work at another wedding that I went to, so I already knew what to expect in terms of quality. However, I did not know what to expect in terms of service. Sometimes, when you are dealing with a high level product, you can get a sense that you don't really know what you're doing. Working with Carnelian was the complete opposite, and they really guided us through the steps comfortably. We had a designated designer who worked with us real-time through the whole process from concept to print. Everything was completely custom, and we were consulted promptly via e-mail any time input was needed from us, or a decision needed to be made. Just be warned: If you plan to use them for your wedding, you had better be prepared to answer loads of questions from your guests about who did your amazing invitations.

Carnelian is absolutely the best! We were so excited to work with Emily and were so extremely pleased with the results! We had people in the printing business give the greatest compliment to our invitations and save-the-dates, as well as just about everyone else who received them. Emily was so flexible, and was great at turning our ideas into the most beautiful designs. I cannot thank her enough for all the hard work she put into one of the most important aspects of our wedding!!

Emily is absolutely wonderful!! She gave us a great design to start with, as well as a lot of options, making it VERY easy to pick the colors and design that worked best for us! She was also very willing to work within our budget, making the whole process seamless and fun! :) We love our invitations and we love Carnelian Creative! :)

My husband and I loved the wedding invitations that Emily did for us. She helped set the tone for the most important day of our lives! Her service was excellent and communication was fantastic.

Carnelian Creative did a fantastic job on our wedding invitations! I was looking for something customized to fit our simple but elegant vision, without comprising quality– and that is exactly what I got, Emily brought my vision to life! She was so easy to work with, very helpful and extremely prompt.

I would highly recommend Carnelian Creative and trust them completely to deliver beautiful high quality invitations you and your guest will love!

Working with Emily was absolutely amazing! She let me provide my ideas for the invitation I wanted and made it into the perfect invitation. The final product was much greater than I had ever imagined, and it's all thanks to her. I have gotten so many compliments on the invitations. The entire process of imagining, designing and putting it all together was so easy! I would definitely recommend Carnelian Creative for any printing needs.

I cannot say enough positive things about working with Emily! She is completely professional, creative, tasteful, and flexible! We had been considering doing our own invitations, but after I met with her, it was clear that she had a lot of experience and ideas that we could gain from. Our invitations would not have been as wonderful if it weren't for her expertise. I would recommend her to any of my closest friends and family!

Working with Emily on our wedding invitations was probably the most fun part of the entire wedding planning process. She was reliable, knowledgeable, and incredibly helpful. On top of that she has an amazing ability for turning your thoughts and ideas into beautiful works of art. I can't tell you how many comments I got on the invitations. On a scale of 1 to 5, I would give her a 6 - she is a rock star!

Working with Emily was a blast. She helped us create save-the-dates and wedding invitations that were completely unique to us. She was able to work within our modest budget while keeping the style and level of quality we wanted. The whole experience was professional and easy. Emily was prompt, stayed within budget and offered us completely personalized save-the-date and wedding invitations. We were very specific about what we wanted, but didn’t know how to create it. Emily listened to us and gave us what we asked for. She also added details that we had not considered to make the elements we wanted even better then we imagined they would be. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a creative and distinctive addition to his or her event.

Everything was fantastic! We were able to work with Emily's guidance to develop a custom look and design for all of our wedding stationary, which was one of my favorite aspects of the wedding as a whole. Emily was extremely easy to work with - very kind and helpful along with being flexible with scheduling and timely with responses and completion of projects. I could not be happier with how everything turned out and am so glad we found her! My little sister is utilizing her services as well and I would recommend Carnelian Creative to all brides to take care of all their stationary needs.

Carnelian Creative was amazing. Emily did my wedding invitations. She was wonderful to work with, extremly flexible and totally understanding of a crazy bride's nutty ideas and constantly changing details :) She was really phenominal to work with. Additionally, she knows her business well. Emily was able to know exactly what works best, what stamps to use, how to handle international invitations, ways of pulling together details, maps, etc. The finished product..... I LOVE!! As soon as the invitations were sent out, I honestly had many family and friends call to say how gorgeous the invitation was. I think the invitation really sets the tone for the wedding and I just now hope that we can make the event live up to the beautiful invitation.
I would honestly, highly recommend Carnelian Creative. Thank you!

We used Carnelian Creative for our wedding invitation suite, and this was our first experience working with a graphic designer for any reason......... Emily is quite easy going and friendly, yet politely insistent when deadlines are in play (very appropriate!). ......... She did an excellent job of producing designs that replicated the suggestions and ideas we discussed at our initial meeting but seemed reluctant to expand on those ideas and add a significant amount of her own inspiration and creativity. ...........
The quality of materials offered is excellent, and she can definitely create whatever you have in mind, but be prepared to offer as many specifics as you can to make sure you get what you want. However this may be easier than working with someone who has too many ideas that may not necessarily match yours and needs to be reined in.
