Serving All of North Carolina

I’m Lauren, one of the weirdos that knew what I wanted to do with my life when I was in high school – it’s true. I love creating visual solutions and knew I wanted to help build brands from the ground up. Between working with the wedding industry as well as businesses and nonprofits, it keeps me well-rounded as a designer while feeding different parts of my creative soul.

 

I married my dream guy, Ryan, and our world revolves around the cutest little boy you’ve ever seen. I grew up here in North Carolina, and I love every part of this state. Although I work with couples all over the US, I’m located in Statesville, NC and my favorite thing about being here is you can easily hop on the interstate and go west to the mountains or east to the beach. With two main interstates intersecting here (I-40 and I-77), the options are endless!

Being in this role, I’m a “detail girl” so creating designs and wedding details is what I was born to do. Nothing makes my heart happier than the reactions and messages I get when couples open their box of wedding pretties! They’ve seen a digital mock up on their screen, but when they get the products in hand, everything really comes to life and they’re always so excited – which thrills my heart to no end!!

 

When a couple reaches out, I always ask them to share their wedding vision with me [ whether it’s something they’ve seen online that they love or a pinterest board ]. If I’ve learned anything in this industry, it’s that everyone’s perception of “timeless, elegant, rustic, traditional, modern” all mean different things. Seeing samples of their wedding vision helps tremendously before any design begins. For elopements, we offer several template options for invitation suites in small quantities in addition to vow books or extra keepsakes they have in mind. [ Couples can also opt for a completely custom design based on their budget. ]

When I’m not working or spending time with my family, I’m a great hype girl that loves encouraging others. Every person in this world is born with a purpose. It’s our job to encourage, empower, help others and love them big. That’s when change happens.

Lauren is the best! She perfectly captured what we were looking for in our wedding invitations after only a few emails and we were amazed! She has been the best to work with and so thoughtful. Her quality and pricing surpasses anything you could purchase from larger stationary businesses. And to top it all off, when we picked up our invitations they were packaged beautifully and she even threw in a few extra goodies for us! She has been so sweet and understanding throughout the entire planning process, and even discounted the matching postponement cards we ended up doing. We are so thankful we chose to work with Lauren and supported a local business from our hometown.
