Weddings in Houston: What do you enjoy about creating stationery for brides and grooms?
Sydney, Crane & Palette: I love collaborating to learn about our couples, their relationship, and the important details they would like to share with their guests about their wedding day.
Our custom stationery is more than just paper; it tells a story about each couple. And translating that into a design that brings our couples’ stories to life is my favorite part. Plus – I get to work with the sweetest brides and grooms who are as enthusiastic and excited about stationery as I am!
WiH: Why is a strong design important for wedding invitations?
Sydney: Wedding invitations are the first impression that your guests have of your wedding, so it’s like the appetizer to your wedding “meal.”
