The Organized Bride

Tara at The Organized Bride was wonderful! We planned our wedding in 3 months, so we didn't have much time to choose invitations. Tara had a great selection of invitations and we were able to pick one during our first visit to her store. She got the invitations to us very quickly and they were beautiful! She also printed all of our envelopes for us at a great price!The week before our wedding, I thought I could print our place cards by myself. After almost going crazy trying to figure it out, I called Tara. She had a very simple template for the place cards and she had them ready for me in two days. It was great!I highly recommend using The Organized Bride! You will get great products and personal and professional service!

The owner is very involved with her customers which was a huge comfort because we automatically knew our buisness was important. Her staff was able to produce exactly the invitations I had in mind. They were very attentive and I never seemed like a burden. They are so nice and easy to talk with and I will always go back to her store for any invitation needs.

I had such a hard time finding an invitation I liked much less loved until I met with the lovely ladies at The Organized Bride. They showed me book after book of invitations by national invitation companies and refused to give up on finding my perfect invitation, even after I practically gave up. When I found the style I loved but found out I couldn't order it in my colors, they started looking into the DIY papers and created a near identical invitation with exactly the colors I wanted. Even though it was all DIY invitation materials, they were able to put all our invitation together for us and it was actually cheaper than if we ordered the invitations in the books they showed us.

This store deserves way more than 5 stars! I used them to purchase a few wedding accesories (i.e. unity candle) and they came out wonderful. However, my main review is going to be for all the printed stuff!I had EVERYTHING done here. Invitations, response cards (etc), placecards, programs, table numbers.. and probably a few more things I am missing. Everything was absolutely gorgeous. No lie, I had at least 3 people tell me I had the prettiest invitations they have ever seen. They really were stunning. Tara made exactly what I had envisioned come to life.Throughout the process, working with Tara and the other employees were just amazing. They were always always to answer my questions and really overall just went above and beyond great service. I couldn't be happier with my choice of going here, and I really urge you to do the same.

Tara and the whole Organized Bride team designed the most beautiful invitations for my fall wedding, I had tons of compliments! Their prices are unbeatable for the top notch quality of their products and their outstanding customer service. I think every bride in the area should check them out before going anywhere else to save themselves the trouble, I know I wish I had!

Our wedding was amazing, and we could not have had such an amazing time without Alyssa and Tara. We purchased the day of coordinator package and it was the best money we spent on the wedding. It’s not just the day of- Alyssa was available by email and phone throughout the year for questions and recommendations. She ran our rehearsal on Friday night, executed our wedding vision with our details and notes on Saturday, and we didn’t have to worry about one thing on our wedding day. She and Tara were complete pleasures to work with and their professionalism is outstanding.

Tara and her team were so helpful during my entire wedding planning experience. I was able to get literally all of my wedding stationary from their shop. I purchased my invitations, enclosure cards, rsvp cards, place cards, menu card, programs, table numbers, and favor boxes from them. They are truly a one stop shop! Tara is such a sweetheart. She worked with me on the design and countless edits of my invitations. I received so many compliments on all of my stationary. I would highly recommend The Organized Bride to any bride who loves convenience when planning their wedding. This is the best shop in the MD/DC area.

I noticed Organized Bride on a day trip to Frederick and popped in to ask about save the date cards for a 25th Anniversary. They were so nice and took time with us to show us the options. Although I did not get my save the date cards there, I went back to get the invitations. I looked a couple of places in Bethesda closer to my home, only to find customer service completely lacking. We showed up to look at invitation w/out an appointment when the propietor was handling 2 other customers and we still got great service. We were plowing through all the books, when she finally got a chance to talk to us. We explained what we were looking for linked silver hearts and voila she pulled it out. My husband who was at the "are we done yet?" staged was thrilled! When we went to pick up the invitations, we noticed a linked silver heart cake topper, which we just had to have. So we ordered it. It had to come from California and were told it would only take a month or so. On the second call to find out where it was the proprietor called the company and found out that when we placed the order they were not being manufactured, but would be put back in production that week. Since we were now running out of time for trips to Frederick, Organized Bride shipped the item to me, gratis, as soon as it arrived. Even it seems out of the way, it is worth the trip to Frederick to work with this vendor. Make it a day trip, have a nice lunch, visit the chocolate shops and have a wonderful time choosing your invitations.

I had The Organized Bride make my "day of" stationary (i.e. ceremony programs, menus, place cards and table numbers). My sister-in-law had made our wedding invitations and The Organized Bride was able to duplicate the same colors, fonts and design of our invitations. Tara was incredible to work with, the stationary came out perfect and dealing with them was one of the least stressful parts of our wedding planning! Also, their prices are incredibly reasonably. I even told Tara she should be charging more for the quality of their work! I would definitely recommend The Organized Bride for invitations and day-of stationary. They also have a cute store where you can buy the guest book, ring bearer pillow, flower girl baskets, thank you notes, etc.

Tara is AWESOME!!!! So great at what she does and so helpful!!!

If you are looking for a totally unique or tradtional look, Tara from The Organized Bride has it. When my mom and I first went to her shop we were isntantly excited. With such a warm atmosphere and such wonderful staff we throughly enjoyed the expierence with Tara. She is super friendly person with a warm heart. I have to admit I was sad when the whole wedding process was over with Tara, but now I look for any occassion or holiday to go back, time and time agian. I know that some people choose to do thier own invites but if I could give one peice of advice it's go and see Tara before you do any of this. I cant describe how wonderful fer shop is and the beautiful creations they have for every bride. Every bride in the Frederick, DC area should go here!!!

I loved our invitations that we had made by Tara @ The Organized Bride. She has the most adorable store with tons of things to see and options to choose from. The paper quality is great and everyone told me how much they loved them! Thanks Tara!

Tara did a wonderful job creating our wedding invitations, programs, and menus. It was not inexpensive, but we wanted something a bit more classy than the typical products you can get online. Tara was patient with us, offering suggestions, as we perused the many options. It can be overwhelming if you don't have a idea of what you're looking for when you go in. When I designed the programs, I changed my mind on the wording several times and Tara worked with me until they were exactly what I wanted. All of the items we ordered were done well within the timeline we needed them and everything was perfect. I would definitely recommend getting your invitations and similar items from a place with a storefront vs. online. The customer service you receive at TOB was worth the extra cost.

I highly recommend The Oranized Bride for invitations, name and table cards, signs or any other specialty printeditems required for a wedding, party, etc. Tara Franklin is a pleasure to work with and I'm extremely grateful for support and expertise. I planned and organized most of my daughter's wedding as she lives out of town and was extremely busy with flight school. Her invitations were beautiful and Tara suggested a stunning and regal star pattern to decorate the name and table cards and specialty signs for the reception. My daughter and her new husband were pleasantly surprised and thrilled with the outcome! I also recommend to visit her store which is amazing and filled with examples and creative ideas for all aspects of a wedding, bridal shower and other events.

The Organized Bride saved me. I had orginally planned to do my own programs to save money but was so disappointed at the products on market at craft/office stores. I was so frustrated!! BUT THEN, I went to the Organized Bride and they saved me. With only a couple of weeks to go, Tara was able to put my mind at ease helping me slect program and name cards. She provided me a couple of choices and was able to stear me in the right direction. Although I thought that I could have printed some programs myself, they never would have been as good as what the ladies provided me. The stationary pulled the look of the wedding together! THANK YOU TARA-- You took away some pre wedding stress and delivered more than what was promised-well worth the money!!! (also picked up my ring bearer pillow, flower girl basket here)

Tara and her staff were so helpful! My invitations were amazing along with my programs. I could not have asked for better quality or service.

We had started our invitation search by trying the DIY route and working with a quality paper company and a separate printer. Too hard! We found that for about the same price, we could order beautiful invitations from TOB. We went to Tara just a few short weeks before we wanted the invitations in the mail. She made it happen for us! We later returned to order the program fans (a bit hit!) and the escort easel. Everything was beautiful and Tara was always pleasant to work with. FYI - It gets very busy on Saturdays. I would recommend going on a weekday afternoon.

The invitations were absolutely amazing!

I love The Organized Bride!!!! Tara and her staff were so helpful with my invitations!!! They gave a great variety of choices and gave great ideas. Tara also help coordinate my candy buffet signs with my invitations.... She made my wedding planing stress free!!!

When I was planning our wedding, I wanted to the variety of items you'd find online, but I actually wanted to GO there and SEE them. I found the Organized Bride by chance and I am so glgad that I did! Tara and her staff are wonderful to work with. She is professional, friendly, and has a great eye for detail! We bought fun items such as Bride tank tops and other apparel, but the biggest purchase were program fans (we got married July 2011 during the heat wave!). I had some basic things I wanted included, and they said they would send proofs. The proofs were beautiful and perfect - better than I would have imagined! The materials are all high quality and the finished product is perfect. Thanks to Tara for adding an extra special detail to our wedding!

The Organized Bride has everything you could ever need for invitations, place cards, programs, etc... Tara was so helpful and patient as we looked at everything and figured out just what we needed. We will absolutely recommend her to anyone! :)

Love, love, love this place! The owner, Tara, was so fun to work with and very polite! The customer service was excellent and I could not be more pleased with the final result! The shop has a large variety of options and Tara is patient and helpful while you select. Truly a wonderful experience to shop here. I highly recommend this place!

I do not have a bad thing to say about this place... All the employees were so nice and willing to help..When they said our product would be there on a certain date it was always there... They have so many options.. It was a really awesome store

My experience with The Organized Bride was absolutely wonderful. We ordered our invitations here, which can be an overwhelming process due to the vast amounts of options. Tara helped narrow down what we were looking for and helped us with colors, wording, format, fonts, design, etc etc etc! I recommend this place to anyone looking to do invitations for any event. They also have wedding favors and other wedding related items!

I ordered many things from Tara at The Organized Bride, such as my Save The Dates, Invitations, Day of Stationary, Heart Sand Ceremony, and Custom Garter. Tara's store offers a unique variety of gifts, favors, and stationary. I was able to customize everything, which made my event special. Tara is the nicest person to work with in the wedding business! She is always friendly, reliable, creative, and fun to work with! Also, you get your money worth on the quality products that you buy. I would highly recommend using The Organized Bride for your wedding needs!

I really enjoyed working with Tara. When walking into the store and seeing the books upon books of invitations, you become a little overwhelmed...BUT, Tara does an awesome job of pointing you in the right direction and giving you just a few books that fit the bill. If you don't see anything in those, she will give you more options. The options are endless, but not overwhelming. She knows everything there is to know about invitations, wording, etiquette, etc! You can't go wrong at The Organized Bride!

The Organized Bride and owner Tara Franklin should be the first stop for any bride. In the many months leading up to my daughter's wedding, anytime we met or spoke with Tara, she was supportive, helpful and most of all had that positive, friendly voice that spoke calmly and with assurance.There is no need to shop the interent. The selection at The Organized Bride is outstanding, fairly priced -- and you get Tara! In addition to a beautiful inviitation selection, she works carefully with each bride to make sure the selection exceeds expectations. Since many of the last minute items require final editing close to the wedding day, Tara provides on site printing of programs, escort cards and other printed materials to coordinate with the invitations or wedding theme.There was no request too big or too small. After being in charge of large VIP events across the country, it was wonderful to have Tara and Alyssa as day-of support and not have to be in charge myself.They worked seamlessly and tirelessly to make the wedding day relaxing and fun for both the bride and MOB (mother of the bride). They took away the potential stress. We truly enjoyed the day of the wedding.Thank you Tara - you are wonderful and The Organized Bride is a gift to the bridal community.

The Organized Bride was an amazing shop to work with for every step of the wedding. Selecting Save-the-Dates and invitations for the shower and wedding were fun with the staff at this shop. They listen and get a feel for your style and help guide the process. Many, many choices are available. Price options were provided along the way so you could keep your costs where you needed them. We also purchased many of the items used at the reception (wish book/guest book, ring bearer pillow, etc.) from the shop and fun shirts, etc. for the bachelorette party. Matching menus, table #'s and programs were custom made and absolutely beautiful! We highly recommend working with this shop because they made it fun and easy to create a beautiful wedding!

Tara was the best to work with. Our invitations were beautiful!! Greatest one- stop-shop for pretty much all my needs.

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! It was a pleasure working with you and I was very satisfied with the products and my guests were too!! = )

The Organized Bride was amazing! The women that would there are always friendly and willing to help. We loved our invitations; they were exactly what we were looking for! We got a proof of the invitation and made changes and the women were more than willing to help and change to make them perfect! The invitations did come in a little later than expect but Organized Bride made sure that the RSVP date was changed to allow plenty of time for the guest to respond back to us. We will recommend and use them in the future!

The Organized Bride was wonderful in helping me with my wedding invitations. Tara provided me lots of great ideas to customize my invites into exactly what I had in mind! The store also has lots of cute details for your event, I got both my ring bearer pillow and flower girl basket at the store as well! I would highly recommend it to everyone looking for a more personalized experience than ordering online. It is an especially great store for accomplishing a cohesive look for your whole event.

The owner Tara is very nice and really helped me with ideas and questions i had. Shop is beautiful and if i had to order something, it came very quick.

My daughter and I love Tara and The Organized Bride!!! There is no place in Frederick where you can take care of wedding business and have so much fun at the same time. Without Tara's knowledge of product, advice, service, and support we would have been lost. There are so many ideas and products available in magazines and on the internet, however at The Organized Bride you get personal attention from someone who genuinely cares about the bride, her family and the event details. I would sum it up by saying we got old fashioned service with a modern yet traditional flare. We feel so lucky to now have Tara as our friend and look forward to the next step -- baby shower invitations and announcements!!

Tara and her staff did a great job with my invitations, programs, place cards, and table numbers. I'm still getting compliments on them. Very responsive to needs and super creative!

We got our invitations, placecards, and programs from Tara at the Organized Bride. Not only was she phenomenal and prompt in everything we requested, but she was always so sweet and courteous when I came in. The Organized Bride can truly help you with every aspect of planning your big day. I have received countless compliments on the gorgeous programs and invitations that Tara personalized for us. She is the best in this area of wedding planning!

Love, Love, Love Tara and The Organized Bride! They helped me find the perfect invitation for my wedding without throwing book after book at me. I was so pleased with my invitations that I had them make table cards, place settings, and ceremony programs! My programs were a hit at my hot, July, outside wedding, as they were printed on fans! Perfect in every way and very pleasant to work with!

The Organized Bride Shop in Fredrick, Maryland is absolutely the greatest find for any Bride. The minute my Mom and I walked into the shop we were amazed at all of the wonderful bridal items available. Tara Franklin the owner of the shop and everyone working there were willing to help you in anyway they could. We went there to look for wedding invitations and they helped us to design just what I was looking for. The invitations were stunning and received so many compliments from all of our guests. Tara designed our table cards and wedding programs to match our beautiful invitation. If you are planning a wedding the Organized Bride Shop is the place to find the perfect accessories for personalizing your special day. What an amazing place!Katie McCormick was our Wedding Day coordinator. She works at the Organized Bride Shop in Fredrick, Maryland. Katie helped us to plan out the wedding day events and organized our thoughts about the ceremony and reception. She was at the rehearsal and rehearsal dinner where she prepared all of the wedding party for their personal part in the event. The wedding day she was amazing. She took all of the extra items that needed setting up at the wedding and reception. She used her expertise for all of the last minute details. We were delighted with her creative ideas and flexible nature. She took control of the proceedings, guiding us all gently down the aisle. If there were any problems we did not know because she allowed us to fully enjoy the entire day and evening without a worry. The Wedding day was perfect. Everyone at the wedding commented on the lovely details and the incredible flow from the ceremony, to cocktail time into the reception. We could not have been a happier wedding party.We would highly recommend Katie, she was extremely competent, organized, and flexible all with a smile on her face.

The owner of The Organized Bride, Tara, was absolutely amazing when I was planning my wedding. She is a very approachable individual, and was so patient with me. I purchased my wedding invitations, place settings, guest book and sand ceremony and also some gifts for my bridesmaids from Tara. I would recommend her a million times over!!

The Organized Bride had it all. The invitation selection was unbelievable. I had a hard time deciding, like many I am sure, but I found the perfect invitation for our wedding. Tara was so friendly and helpful throughout the whole process. The Organized Bride is extremely flexible and affordable.

Where do I begin! Tara is an absolute joy to work with. I purchased my "Save the Date" magnets elsewhere before I met Tara and wish I would have gone through her. I purchased my invitations, programs, bridesmaid gifts, bachelorette thank you cards and rented a bird cage from this shop. Tara is extremely accommodating to any request you have. I was originally worried going into any wedding shop because I "assumed" all wedding invitations through companies would cost me an arm and a leg after some internet research. I was wrong. Tara has such a wide variety of invitations to choose from and they fit into your budget easily. After spending a long time looking through books she sat down with us and went over every detail with us. Another wonderful thing is she has numerous samples to give you great ideas. Once ordered she kept me informed with proofs and emails. Once it came time to order programs I thought again I could do it cheaper myself. Once I calculated the cost of paper, ink and also my time (which there was not a lot of months before the wedding) I realized doing it myself was out of the question. Then I decided I would put together my own program in a word document and print it at Kinkos -- DEFINATELY out of the question! Kinkos was at least $50 more and I would be using my own work/designs. Going through Tara I was able to match my invitation not only design wise but color wise. She sent me a wonderful proof and the layout was gorgeous. She is flexible so I had already purchased matching ribbon in bulk that I was using on favors so I was able to use that as well to get the program for a lower price. The in house printing quality is superior in my opinion to Kinkos. I was amazed!My final and favorite purchase was the bridesmaid gift. I purchased black velour zip up hoodies for them to wear the day of the wedding while getting ready which was embroidered with their names. I also purchased a white zip up hoodie for myself with “Bride” across the back. They were absolutely amazing. I originally ordered terry cloth zip up robes which were back ordered for a few months (not through the Organized Bride but through another company) and until a few weeks before the wedding Tara constantly kept me updated on the companies back order status. After waiting a while for the robes I decided on the hoodies instead which I am soooooo happy I did! My bridesmaids were so excited and said it was the best gift they ever received. What a wonderful compliment. They loved them so much that they wore them at the rehearsal with their sundresses on (haha!). Bottom line, you must stop by this shop!!! It is the cutest shop and if you are planning a wedding you will fall in love. I got married in May which is CRAZY wedding season and Tara made me feel like I was the only customer she had. She returned emails in less than 24 hours which is incredible customer service. She was a joy to work with and I would recommend her to any bride!

Excellent! The guests feel that the Chocolates are so delicious that they never had taste.Order was rapid and shipping was marvelous.The chocolate was absolutely delicious and was a big hit at the wedding!Thanks.

Originally, I was going to try to print my own wedding invitations & programs. I went to a bridal show and won a gift certificate for The Organized Bride. I am so happy I went in and decided to order my invitations. She has a variety of styles and options for different budgets. Tara was fantastic to work with. Everyone loved my invitations and I really loved my programs - which she made in house. I feel she really cares about her customers and I am very happy she was apart of my wedding planning!

Tara was so helpful. She was able to help us pick out invitations and programs with neat fonts and backgrounds. She really listened to my traditional style and found a perfect match.

Amazing!Tara was helpful, understanding, listened actively and provided helpful solutions. I highly recommend using The Organized Bride.Married in December 2009.

Tara is amazing! She helped us through everything and was so patient when my husband and I couldn't decide on invitations (we're so indecicive :) She even saw what we wanted and helped us create something uniquely ours. And when the manufacturer took forever to print the invivations (past the date on the reply cards) and sent us the wrong direction cards, Tara was on it. She had them reprint the direction cards and new reply cards with a new date, and had them all overnighted to us. She even gave us store credit towards our programs because she felt so bad. Eventhough it was totally not her fault! Overall, The Organized Bride is awesome. It's where we got all of our stationay, gifts for the bridal party, and where I got my garter set. And the one thing that makes the store even better is Tara! She personally cares about each one of her brides! Goodluck and Happy Planning!

The store is absolute eye candy, a real treat to visit! Tara made the whole invitation process soo easy and enjoyable, I cannot imagine having to order invites through a website with no one to answer all of your questions and give suggestions for wording! Alot of value added when you purchase from this store!

Tara at the Organized Bride is fabulous! I was stressed about picking out my invites, and making sure I included everything, but as soon as I sat down with Tara, she calmed me down and really helped me pick the perfect invites. She knows everything, and made sure we had the invites perfect. Her store is so cute and has everything a bride could need. She is willing to come in on her day off to help you out, and her prices are good! She also knows a lot of people in the area, and can recommend really good vendors! I have recommended her to multiple people. Thanks Tara for all your help!

I stumbled upon the store in frederick one day by accident and it may have been the mistake that saved my wedding. I cannot say enough about the shop. Tara was so extremely helpful and flexible. I was the definition of a DISorganized bride and she helped me pull everything together at the very last minute. I was a mess and in her shop I was able to get all my programs my favors and a million other misc. things that I would have had to run to a million places for and she had it all conveniently right there. I could have never imagined how gorgeous our programs would have turned out. I got SOOO may compliments. I already had a few friends rush over. I have been to several weddings and they are by far the most beautiful things I have ever seen. The quality and service far excedded my expectations. I highly recommend her for all your wedding needs!

I went to the Organized Bride for ceremony programs and to rent a card cage for my gift table. Tara was especially helpful with planning my ceremony program, and they came out beautiful! They were better than I could ever hope for! She was very flexible with color and design and even assembled the programs for me at her store. All I had to do was pick them up! The card cage was such a deal too. It was a better price to rent one from Tara than buying my own at the local craft store. Tara decorated the cage in my wedding colors and attached a sign that said, "Amy and Jack 7-25-09".If only all the vendors were as helpful as Tara!! Thanks a bunch, Tara!

I loved working with Tara for my invitations. She was so sweet, easy to work with, knowledgeable and professional. After explaining what I was looking for, Tara knew exactly what to show me. Tara was quick to respond to any emails/questions I had along the way. I also had table numbers printed in house. I was sent several options. They turned out great! I also rented the containers and scoops from Tara for our candy bar. It was a huge hit at the wedding! The containers come in various shapes and sizes and were perfect for our candy. I received so many compliments about my invitations, table numbers and candy bar. I would definitely recommend The Organized Bride to all brides!

We loved working with the Organized Bride. We purchased invitations, place cards, and stationary. They are extremely professional we received so many compliments from friends and family.

I purchased my wedding invitations, place cards and programs from The Organized Bride. Tara was incredible to work with! She was very knowledgable on her products, well acquainted with her vendors, responsive, accommodating, and super sweet! We had minor issues with the vendor who printed the invitations, and Tara went above and beyond to fix a mistake that was not even hers! I was so impressed by her professionalism and dedication to make me a happy customer. I got so many compliments on my invitations and programs (which were printed in-house).She was an absolute pleasure to work with, I would reccommend her to any bride! My new husband and I will definately visit again when it is time for baby shower invitations and birth announcements!!-Bridget

The Organized Bride was a great place to go to! They did our wedding favors, and even tied the bows and tags onto every single box (all 210 of them!), Tara, the owner is simply a joy to work with and one of the sunniest people you will ever meet. Not only did she do our favors, but also our table place cards, and then our wedding thank you notes, which were personalized to match our table cards and favor cards. Not only did she print these cards, but her shop is also where I bought our 2 matching ring bearer pillows (and for sale!), some "Bride" swag, and the cards we used for our attendant gifts and bridal shower thank yous. This is a great one stop shop for your wedding.

Tara was absolutely AMAZING!!!! She gave us a lot of ideas when choosing our wedding invitations. She was willing to help us through the whole process and took the time to answer all our questions. She responded to e-mails really fast!!! Tara was very friendly and pleasant. The store is all in one stop shop!!! We ended up getting our wedding invitations, programs, placement cards, unity candles and favors.The invitations turned out beautiful...Thank you Tara,Ingrid & Saul

We found out about the Organized Bride from a friend who shopped there for her wedding. The shop is very cute and Tara is so nice and provides great customer service. We ended up renting a bird cage and the candy buffet jars and scoops from her. She had everything ready for me when I picked them up before the wedding. She even decorates the bird cage for you in your wedding colors. We also purchased a sand ceremony set, ring bearer pillow, and garter from the store.

The Organized Bridge was hands down my favorite vendor to work with during wedding planning. Each time I walked into her store Tara knew me by name and was always excited to see me. My colors and themes were a direct result of working with Tara and sitting in her charming shop. I ordered my invitations, programs, menus and place cards from Tara and I couldn�t have been happier. I�ll never forget stopping in the store a few weeks before my wedding and her telling me to call her if I needed anything on the day of the wedding and she�d swing right by and drop it off! I cannot recommend Tara and the Organized Bride enough!

lovely selection of invitations; consultant was very friendly and knowledgeable. was able to get more than just the invitations at this particular venue. would recommend to any prospective bride or groom:)

Working with the Tara of the Organized Bride was one of the most delightful and memorable wedding planning experiences! She was so helpful with everything from choosing the invitations and save-the-date cards, to the correct wording and fonts...who know there were so many! I truly looked forward to visiting her shop and have recommended to all of my family and friends. Everything turned out so beautifully, Tara's flexibility and excitement made her a joy to work with!

Working with Tara was wonderful. I had a bad experience with another invitation vendor, and Tara bent over backwards to make sure everything went smoothly. I should have gone to her in the first place. She is incredibly responsive (she always returns phone calls quickly) and I couldn't have been happier with my invitations!

The Organized Bride is such a lovely little store that provided us with exactly what we were looking for! I found not only our invitations for the wedding and our rehearsal dinner but purchased our unity candle, my garter, gifts for my bridesmaids and our photo frame for guests to sign. Tara (owner) was such a delight to work with and we have already used her services for invitations to our daughters birthday party. We found everything we needed and at a great price! No doubt we will continue to use the Organized Bride for other invitations for years to come. The Organzied Bride Store and its owner Tara were wonderful to work with!

Tara at the Organized Bride was amazing, and help me realize the wedding of my dreams. We first went to The Organized Bride to find our Save the Dates. Tara assisted me in finding something unique, beautiful, and totally “us”. After my experience I knew I would be using TOB for all my stationary needs for my wedding. I had a very difficult time choosing an invitation because of a unique situation. Tara was very patient with me, even after I called her in a panic and told her to put a hold on my order I had taken 3 days to decide on! TOB also created one of a kind program, escort cards, and table numbers for me. I received so many complements on all of my stationary pieces, I was shocked. Thank you Tara for helping all my wedding dreams come true, you are the BEST!

Tara and The Organized Bride are the absolute best!! The Organized Bride has a fabulous selection of invitations (& all other paper supplies), toasting glasses, unique and fun gifts, a candy bar available to rent, wedding planners, favors, etc. etc. This adorable little shop also prints place cards, table numbers, menu cards, etc. in house. The items to purchase are only a portion of The Organized Bride because the personal professional flexible service Tara provides is truly amazing! I would not have been able to plan my wedding so well if it was not for Tara's assistance. She went out of her way to make sure I received exactly what I was looking for. I have and will continue to recommend The Organized Bride to all brides (grooms, family & friends of engaged couples...)

The Organized Bride is a great place for all sorts of wedding stuff. We got our invitations, favors, unity candle, guest pen and thank you notes there. Tara is wonderful. She did a great job with everything, and went above and beyond helping me, the bride, all the way.

Tara, the owner, is the sweetest woman to work with. She helped with everything and didn't rush me in making my decision. There wasn't a time limit on looking at invitations like at other invitation places. The prices fit any budget. There's lots of really cute favors and gifts. Anything I could get there, I did because I loved the service. She knew who I was each time I went in there and always had time to chat with me. I took forever picking fonts, wording and color coordinations, and she was very patient and helpful with me. I recommend Organized Bride to all my friends whether they're engaged or not because I had the best experience there. They also have announcements for babies.

Many options and choices as well as a knowledgeable staff who answered any questions my husband or I had. Competitive pricing, and beautifully done invitations.

Tara at The Organized Bride is so helpful and nice. We were having a nightmare with our invitations from another vendor (see my other review of RSVP KIM) and went to Tara to see if we could get invites from her in a short time. She was so helpful in helping us find the exact same invite, while we eventually did receive our invitations from our original vendor, we were wishing that we had just gone with The Organized Bride all along. We did get our unity candle from TOB. While we weren't smart enough to not try to cut corners on our invites, I definitly recommend anyone in the Frederick area going to The Organized Bride for their invites and various other wedding needs. Tara went above and beyond.

Tara helped me to pick out the perfect invitations and was very patient throughout the revision process. I loved how she was just as excited as I was when they came in! The Organized Bride also has a wide variety of other things such as garders, cake knives and servers, toasting glasses, picture frames, etc. When I found something that I loved but they did not have in stock, Tara ordered it and had it shipped straight to my house! How convenient!

What a great find. Visit this little shop in Frederick, Md. We found such great things there. They supplied the champagne flutes, engraved, and a beautiful memory candle. Orders come in quickly and they have great knowledge of what is needed for the perfect day.

This is an awesome store! I rented my candy buffet from here, along with making several other purchases as well. The candy buffet was beautiful, and very inexpensive. They were great to work with, allowing me to pick it up days in advance and arranging to go to my wedding venue to pick it up for me so that I wouldn't have to worry about it after the wedding. Great customer service. I got adorable thank you cards there too!

Tara was absolutely WONDERFUL to work with. She's so upbeat and bubbly and extremely helpful. She sat with me and my mom for hours figuring out my invitations and was very patient with me. I wanted a special logo put on my invitations, and she'd never done it before but she did everything to make it work and it turned out amazing. I absolutely LOVED my invitations and I got so many comments about them. I had no idea what I was doing and Tara just led me through everything professionally and patiently, and everything turned out better than what I had imagined. They've also got SOO many cute little accessories for the ceremony and reception along with bridesmaid gifts and favors. I LOVE Organized Bride, and just recently sent a really good friend there and she loved it there, too.

The Organized bride has everything you know you need and more, we loved all of the personal touches they were able to provide for us. Definitely a must-visit for all Frederick brides

The Organized Bride has everything you will need to plan your special day. Tara and her staff know what they are doing and will do what it takes to get things just right! I loved working with this store!

We used The Organized Bride for our programs, place cards, table cards, and menu cards. Tara helped us find a wonderful design theme to carry across all of the products and matched our colors perfectly. Working with Tara was great. We had last minute changes to our guest names, literally the same day we were to pick up the items, and everything was printed and ready on time! If I had it to do all over again I would have also used them for our save the dates and invitations. They are so easy to work with; truly great hassle-free service.

Working with Tara and her staff was fabulous! After ordering my invitations it turned out that I needed to order additional invitations. Tara offered to make the additional invites, 1. because I needed less than the 25 than needed to order the invitations we chose, and 2. to save us money! The invitations she made were practically mirrored the originals, they were beautiful. We ordered our programs from Tara and Organized Bride as well. They were fan programs, so there's only a certain amount of room to play with. Well we had a lot to say, and she made it fit. Every phone call and visit were fun, warm, and welcoming. I will most certainly refer anyone I know to The Organized Bride.

I live in Waldorf MD & traveled over 80 miles one way because The Organized Bride was well worth it. Tara & her staff are WONDERFUL!!! My invitations, place cards & ceremony programs were beautiful. I'm still receiving compliments. I recommend them to future brides & I will definitely use them again!!!! Thank you Tara!!!!

I used the Organized Bride Store for our programs. I walked by their table at a Bridal Expo and saw almost EXACTLY what I wanted, talked to the representative and went home and talked my mom into buying them from the store instead of doing it ourselves. So glad I did that! Not just because the programs came out perfect and gorgeous, but also because by the time it would've been time to do them, I didn't have time to do them anymore.The Organized Bride Store representative not only remembered me 3 months later when we came in to order the programs, but she walked us through picking different backings and fonts to get the absolute perfect program for the wedding, even better than the program I originally saw displayed!!! It was so nice to just be able to tell her what I wanted and have the programs show up at my door the week before the wedding - exactly to the day that she told us they'd arrive! - all ready, arranged and tied with a ribbon!

Great vendor. It was such a pleasure working with all the staff, especially Tara. Everyone was so friendly and helpful. They were flexible and helped me to get exactly what I had in mind. Tara also was very knowledgable and gave great recommendations.

Alysaa was my month of coordinator and she did a EXCELLENT job making sure everything was taken care of and contacting vendors. She answered all of my emails quickly, returned all phone calls and made sure everything was in order the day of my wedding. We had a small issue where we misplaced the name tags but she took care of it with help from my bridesmaids. They made sure all the guest were seated where they were supposed to be seated. I loved working with Alyssa and couldn't have asked for a better coordinator!!

Working with Tara at The Organized Bride was just great. She is so positive and helpful, and always has great ideas and suggestions. I visited The Organized Bride with a friend while she was picking out her wedding invitiations and I knew immediately that I wanted to order mine from there as well. We actually ordered our invitiation suite, our programs and our table numbers and place cards from Tara. Our invitations were absolutely gorgeous, and we received so many compliments on them. Tara helped me through the entire process. Occasionally it would take her a few days to email me back or call me back, but as the date grew closer and we were printing the programs and table numbers, she was very responsive and everything turned out just beautifully.

The Organized Bride provides a relaxed, comfortable atmosphere for you to choose your invitation, place card, program, and a million more pieces that you need to give your wedding a comprehensive look or theme. Tables and chairs are situated around a large wall of stationary sample books, and you can take all the time you need looking for what you want. When picking my invitation, we brought in coffee and even took a lunch break before deciding on THE invitation. By describing your price range or ideas for a look to Tara, she will pull out the best book options for you to start with, but you can also pull any other book off the wall that you want. Tara will help you pick colors, font, etc. as you need help, and she stays positive and supportive with all of your decisions. Place cards can be designed and printed on site, which allows you to have a longer deadline for guest list changes than if you were going through a major printing company. I called Tara numerous times and emailed her over several of our pieces to make sure I got exactly what I wanted. Tara stayed positive and offered tasteful suggestions whenever I needed help. Tara and The Organized Bride will be one of your most valuable resources as you plan your wedding, as you can be sure she will guide you to the choices that stand out as elegant, yet still reflective of your unique style.

Everyone here was always very helpful and friendly. They offer many things you can't find in the area and are very knowledgeable.

We really love the organized bride. I was so happy to have found them. It made such a difference being able to go into a store and sit down with books of invites and a professional who knew what they were doing. It helped a lot. Initially I was concerned about the invites that we wanted because we got the invitation "mock up" and it looked nothing like we thought it would, but Tara and her mom were more than willing to keep tweaking things to get it to look exactly how we wanted them. I thought our programs were a bit expensive, but they were very gorgeous. Overall an excellent experience!!

Tara is so sweet, and she took her time to guide us through the many decisions involved in picking out invitations. Even when the invitation company made a mistake, she personally fixed everything so we had no worries whatsoever. Our invitations ended up turning out beautifully - we got so many compliments on them!

I loved working with Tara at the Organized Bride for our invitations. They were absolutely gorgeous! I was told by multiple people that they were the most beautiful invitations they had ever seen. :) They also were able to do in house printing and have the invitations ready in two weeks. (I waited until the very last minute to order) I also rented their candy buffet for the wedding, and it was a huge hit. Overall, it was a great experience working with The Organized Bride.

Very cute and quaint shop! Gets very busy and noisy at times - especially on Saturdays. Recommend making an appointment. Owner is very accommodating and knowledgeable. Quality products at competitive prices.

We heard about Organized Bride (OB) on www.FABnet.org and we are glad we did! I knew that I did not want to go with standard and expensive Crane invitations, but I just did not know where to go for my invitations. I searched all over the web and ordered a ton of catalogs, but I just did not feel comfortable ordering without seeing and feeling the invitations. OB had a huge selection and variety, as well as a large range of quality, design and pricing. After 4 visits to OB, we finally selected our invitations and Tara (the owner) was such a pleasure to work with. Although we did run into a couple issues with the vendor (Paper Duvet), Tara always made it a priority to fix any issues we had and compensated us for the vendors mistakes. Our invitations turned out amazing and we had so many comments and compliments on how unique and elegant they were. I would definitely recommend Organized Bride for your wedding invitations!!!

Fabulous store in downtown Frederick's Shab Row - gorgeous invitations, guest books, favors, decorations and so many creative ideas for weddings and special events. Worth a visit!

Tara of the Organized Bride Store gives her clients the best customer service. You can tell she loves her work! I've seen her guide couples through dozens of invitations to expertly help choose the one that exactly matches their style and personality. But that's not all she offers! She has a great selection of placecards, menus, favors, save the dates, items for sand ceremony... everything for the wedding. I instantly know an Organized Bride wedding when I begin photographing the "details". All the elements come together for a cohesive look with flair. Don't hesitate... see Tara and work with the best.

The Organized Bride is a MUST for every future bride! They are easy to work with, professional, and their attention to detail is unwavering. Whether you already know exactly what you want, or have no clue, The Organized Bride will help your ideas become a reality. They will help you put the exclamation point on all of the details of your big day!

Tara is so sweet, and a very good businesswoman as well. She has such good taste in all things. I can highly recommend The Organized Bride!

The Organized Bride is the only place that I recommend for wedding invitations, favors and accessories. Every time I have seen Tara (the owner), she has a smile on her face and is happy to help her customers with anything that they need. The selection she has is very impressive and of excellent quality. If you are looking for printed material for your wedding look no further than The Organized Bride!

When you've got all the "big" things taken care of for your wedding, head to The Organized Bride for everything else. Their store is extremely pleasant and full of ideas, and I enjoy strolling around looking at the wide variety of items on display - and I'm not even getting married! Tara is extremely friendly and helpful, and will assist you with taking care of all the little details that help to make your wedding reflect your own individual style.
