Paper Presence

Andrea is an awesome designer! We received so many compliments on our invitations and everything else. The quality of the materials she uses is extremely high. I had no idea all the types of questions and work that goes into make beautiful invitations and stationary. The colors were absolutely gorgeous. She also coordinated thank you cards, place cards, and menus for our wedding. Everything was so beautiful. We highly recommend Andrea and Paper Presence! Jason and Dede Green, 3/27/11 (she even saw the bridezilla in me two days before our wedding and was nothing but professional and understanding)

She is an excellent designer... nothing but good things to say... She will answer requests at all times and will not let you down on getting EXACTLY what you want! She makes custom invitations to meet your needs and I can not be happier! She went above and beyond for sure...

I have to admit that during our process of planning, the invitations and printed item costs felt heavy to me. But this was ONLy due to my ignorance on the stationary end. Andrea printed all of our stuff from the SAve the dates, to the table names and menus, and i can not tell you how perfectly every item flowed throughout our wedding. From the designs to the final product everything was A+. I can not convey how many compliments we have received on the invitations alone. And they were trully a work of art. It is because of the quality of service, the creative expression and the value we got that we will continue to use Paper Presence for all our future stationary needs.

I really have nothing but great things to say about Andrea and Paper Presence!! I was so happy with how everything came and very impressed with Andrea's work. She is truly amazing at what she does and has a very unique style. If you are a bride like me who dosen't want the same old thing everyone else sends out, then you have to use Andrea!! She really went above and beyond and even dropped off my invitations to me because I had no time to pick them up!! I really don't know who else would do that!! I highly recommend her!!

We absolutely LOVED the way that our save the dates, invitations, escort cards, table numbers, and extras turned out. Andrea really listened to what our ideas were. She was able to take the vision that we had in our head and actually create it. We have received countless compliments on each of the pieces and how they all tied together. We will definitely hire Andrea for any future stationary needs. We highly recommend Paper Presence!!!

Working with Paper Presence was a pleasure. My invitations were one of my favorite things about my wedding. She worked with me within my budget and the finished product was amazing!

Paper Presence was one of the best vendors we had the opportunity to work with during our wedding planning. Andrea was so patient with us, and didn't give up until our wedding invitation was exactly what we imagined! The final product was beautiful and unique, and we received countless compliments on them. I would never have imagined invitations that beautiful could be so affordable! Working with Andrea was absolutely a pleasure, and I have referred her and her company to all the brides I know. I hope to work with her many, many times in the future!

I’m so glad I found Paper Presence. I wanted custom invitations and I got so much more. Not only were my invitations perfect, but so were the programs, table numbers, escort cards and menus! Everyone commented on how beautifully everything was tied together. Some of my guests didn’t even return their RSVPs because they wanted to keep the whole set together! Meeting with Andrea was a truly custom experience with a truly custom result. Thank you for everything you did for us!

Andrea is the best around! She is creative and helpful in every aspect. If you tell her what you want she will give you exactly that and more. She is also one of the sweetest people I have ever met. She was always willing to go the extra mile for me. She did my Bridal Shower invitations, Wedding Invitations and some other paper needs for the day of the wedding. Everything turned out PERFECT and I couldn't imagine using anyone else but her for any of my paper needs!!! She truly is AMAZING!!!!

I would definitely recommend Andrea to anyone, whether it's for a wedding, birthday, office party, etc. She did a wonderful job on my invitations. She was also very creative. Andrea helped us create beautiful invitations, place cards, table cards, etc. and helped us come in under budget. I appriciate all of the work that she did, mostly by hand. She made our invitations unique and something that I will always cherish about our wedding.

Paper Presence was perhaps the best of the vendors we worked with for our March wedding. They were was creative, attentive and professional - not to much a ton of fun to work with! Their ideas were right on target and the execution was wonderful. In fact the owner went out of her way to make our day special - she even drove from Tampa to Naples to hand deliver items for our destination wedding. I recommend this company to anyone with the greatest of confidence. Really, hire her. Immediately. You won't regret it!!

Andrea was a dream to work with. She always responded to my phone calls and emails immediately and was very flexible with my requests. She was able to produce a beautiful invitation that many of my guests still keep today (6 months after the wedding and how many people do you know even keep invites?) She and her graphic designer gave me several different versions of my invitation to give me options. The experience was easy and nonstressful. Andrea was also very flexible with my budget giving me different options for cost saving alternatives. I really do not have anything negative to say. My only advice would be to spell check your invitation text several times, there was one misspelling that got by 7 people which was really my fault but no one noticed because the graphics were so detailed and elaborate. I would definitely recommend Paper Presence and will work with them in the future again.

The people at Paper Prescence were very helpful in designing the wedding invitation as well as the response cards. I loved the personalized service.

Wow. I'm surprised to read that others have recently been less than happy. My experience with Andrea was wonderful. Her creativity is leaps beyond the others I met with, and I found she was the only designer who truly wanted me to have something unique for my wedding. She did go through a serious family emergency, but I wasn't in a huge hurry and understood the delays. She was even able to incorporate my desire to have both English and Spanish wording on my ceremony programs, which was very important to me. I feel bad that others have left such negative comments. I thought Andrea was the most personable and comfortable of all of my vendors. I absolutely love my invitations and am looking forward to working with her in the future for other events.

Absolutely the most gorgeous invitations I have ever seen, and every single one of my guests commented on how beautiful they were. Andrea is a pleasure to work with, and everything she designed exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend her services, she is very creative and her products are the highest quality.

Paper Presence was wonderful!! I got the invitations that I could've only dreamed of. I had my friends and family calling me just to tell me how much they loved the invitations. Andrea was very helpful and helped me choose what was right for me. She would email me previews, different fonts, and different styles. She would meet me where it was convenient for me and maybe not for her. Even when I ran out of envelopes, she mailed them to me right away.

Andrea did an amazing job on or invitations. She was able to show me excellent examples that FAR exceeded those you'll see in other bridal shops. We had so many compliments on our design and quality and I truly believe they set the exact tone for our whole event. I would recommend paper presence for all the brides that want a person to person experience rather than a 2 dimensional online option. You won't be disappointed.

Andrea does AMAZING work and the end product was awesome. We had some issues with having them done on time, b/c she had a family emergency to tend to. I totally understand, but there was no back up in place to keep us updated with the progress while she was out, & we left tons of messages over a period of two weeks without any response. It all turned out beautifully at the end though~

Very nice but some things were missed and had to be redone. When redone found other things missed and did not bother fixing on invitations. Proofing is a must and patience.

My invites were awesome and so were my save the dates. Andrea is a little lax on communication which was irritating and my stuff was late. That's an artist for you, I guess.

I had absolutely the worst experience with Andrea. I drove from two hours away for a consultation with her, which went very well. I loved all her work and designs, we came up with sketch and ideas for all my wedding stationary and I left feeling great, especially since I was running short on time, but she assured me everything would be ready in time and she would have the contract for me within 48 hours. After emailing and calling, leaving numerous voicemails and becoming genuinely concerned that she was ill or in trouble, I never heard back from her, not even I'm sorry or an explanation for her actions. It appears she is the only employee for her business, with no back up to return calls - completely unprofessional. I wished I would have listened to some of the other reviewers. It appears she does good work, but is just utterly unreliable, which is NOT what I want when I am planning a wedding! I let my coordinator and all my other vendors know how awful my experience was to make sure no one would recommend her. I was lucky enough to find another AMAZING designer in Tampa who was everything Andrea was not. DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME!!

ABSOLUTELY DO NOT USE!!! Working with Andrea from Paper Presence was the worst experience of the entire wedding planning process. I first met with Andrea in August of 2010. It was difficult to continue e-mailing ideas back and forth so we decided to meet again in November (I live out of state). She assured me that that would be plenty of time to finalize a design concept and be ready for mailing in early January. It was after this meeting that everything seemed to go bad. I tried e-mailing Andrea several times and never received a response back. Between December 1 and December 27 I sent numerous e-mails and left several phone messages but none were answered or returned. My mother finally was able to make contact with a business associate of Andrea’s and left word that we desperately needed to talk to her as the mailing date was quickly approaching. Andrea called my mother back that day and mentioned that she had had some family crisis. She never once apologized for not answering e-mails or returning phone calls. She assured my mother that the Save the Dates would be ready on time and would be mailed by the 7th of January, several days after our initial mail date. Neither my mother nor I received a follow-up phone call from Andrea to say that there had been a delay in the mailing. By the 12th of January, nobody had received a Save the Date card. Both my mother and I tried repeatedly to get in touch with Andrea, leaving e-mail and phones messages with no response. On January 13th, the charge for the cards was posted on my mother’s credit card account yet no cards had been received. I finally got a text message on January 14th stating that she was out of town and that her assistant, who I had not heard of up to this point was supposed to have mailed them. On her own website, Andrea talks about plans she has made in Tampa on Saturday, January 15? Hmm? Finally, on January 18th several of my friends called to say they had received their Save the Date card. Unfortunately I discovered over a dozen people who had not received Save the Dates. Again I tried calling and e-mailing Andrea but the response was minimal at best. Never once did she apologize or offer an explanation as to what happened. It was almost two weeks after the initial mailing before the second batch of cards were mailed. Save yourself a lot of sleepless nights and heartache by finding another vendor—I did!!

I was so excited to find Andrea because I wasn't finding anything I liked. She was hot and cold through most of the design as far as keeping in touch. I'd hear from her very promptly for a week and then nothing. I was ALWAYS the one to initiate contact. Then close to the date we needed to send the invites she went 2 weeks TWICE without a call or email to our numerous attempts to contact her. The second time we stopped hearing from her my mother found her home address and had to go to her house to confront her husband! We finally received them and I was in tears. She had given us way too many rehearsal dinner invites and too few maps. We had to reproduce 30 maps ourselves because we didn't want to deal with her another day. It was THE MOST STRESSFUL part of planning my entire wedding. She told us she was ill but NEVER kept us informed, never had anyone else call us. It was scary. The invites were beautiful, perfect, exactly what I wanted. However it was not worth the stress. I am still angry about the way she treated us.

WORST EXPERIENCE EVER! Left multiple emails and voicemails and did not hear from her for a month! Never responds to emails timely and never returns phonecalls. Had planned to use her for save the dates, invitations, programs and thank-you letters but after the nightmare I went through with the save the dates I found someone else. Trust me, you do not need the added stress working with her will give you when you are trying to plan your wedding! I would not recommend her to anyone, ever!
