A wedding & event graphic design studio

I started Papercake Designs in 2005 so engaged couples could create wedding invitations & stationery that are truly their own. The business began with a partnership with a pastry chef. We created wedding & party experiences in which cake & invitations were designed to match.

As a professional graphic designer loaded with ideas & inspiration, I offer the customization that larger stationery companies just can’t. Finding the right design & paper for each client’s event is still my passion.

Together, we'll customize your invitations down to the smallest details. Planning events can be stressful, but I’ve been collaborating successfully with clients for 15 years. Let me be your paper therapist!

> I will also need to know a date you are looking to receive your final invitation suite by so I can add you to my production calendar (invites usually go out 6-10 weeks prior to your big day)!
