Paper Fling

We hadn't planned on getting custom invitations, but we were having a difficult time finding invitiations that fit our wedding style. A trip to Paper Fling changed that. With the help of shop owner Ruth, we designed our own invitiations. They were great to work with and the end result was perfect!

Ruth and her staff were awesome. They were very patient and took a lot of time to sit with my Mom and I while we looked through all the options for invitations and Save the Date cards. I already had a design in mind for my save the dates and they were so easy to work with to create exactly what I wanted even though it wasn't what they did very often. The only suggestion I would give for the save the date cards with a picture on the front of a post card would be to use thicker card stock paper so they don't begin to curve due to the amount of ink on one side.Our invitations were beatiful. I was able to take ideas from several different invitations that they had in the store and create my own dream invitation. Ruth was very helpful when sending me the proofs for the inviations and was patient when I wanted to make changes! The only thing I didn't think about while creating my dream invitations was the price of postage! WHOA! It's a good thing to keep in mind when adding all the bells and whistles! Ruth and her team also made our programs, which were also wonderful. She made them match the same look as our invitations which was a nice way to tie it all together. Although the invitations were expensive, they were worth it! Plus, the knowledge, kindness, and small-shop feel of Paper Fling was a breath of fresh air from all the BIG wedding vendors. Paper fling was very personable, professional, and friendly!

We got our programs and place cards (not invitations) from a small stationary shop in Bothell, Washington. We were extremely pleased with the final product. Ruth, the proprietor, was extremely patient with all our revisions, and even sent out another batch of place cards after we eliminated one table due to cancellations, which threw off all the table numbers. The ceremony programs were simple, classy, and elegant. Unbelievably, the custom products that we got from Paper Fling cost less than the equivalent products available online, as not as customizable, from magnetstreet.com, which we used for our invitations and save-the-dates. We are definitely using Paper Fling for our thank you cards.

I should have known when it was located at Country Village that it would be a bit spendy. It was! I decided to make my own instead.

When looking for designs for my wedding invitations I spent months looking for ideas online first but I was still unsure. I really wanted to be able to feel the quality of the paper and see the printed ink before spending hundreds of dollars. I first went to Paper Source in Bellevue. Their store was beautiful, but when I asked for help with invitations they pointed at a huge stack of gigantic books full of invitations. Not quite the help I was looking for. After about 15 minutes of being overwhelmed and trying to find a place to set this 10 pound book of paper, we left.I ended up going to Paper Fling with my fiance and one of my bridesmaids. Even though we had no appointment, Ruth immediately sat us down and started working with us. I told her what I wanted and she brought out the perfect book of examples. I found what I was looking for in less then five minutes. Ruth was great to work with and she helped us pick font styles, wording, etc. My proofs were emailed in PDF format to me within a week, and my invitations arrived at the store two weeks after that. Smooth, efficient service with a smile!I definitely recommend buying your invitations from a wonderful store like this as opposed to just buying them online! There is definitely a price, though. For 75 invitations with folds, pockets, and heavy paper it ran us about $600. But being totally satisfied with the end product? Priceless!

I had an excellent experience with Ruth at Paperfling. I reached out to Ruth with a specific vision in mind – that would require a large amount of detail and customization (including ribbon and crystal accents). Ruth was able to take my vision and turn it into gorgeous invitation, favor boxes, table tents and seat cards that went above and beyond my expectations. On top of that – she did all this work at a very reasonable price, much less than I would have paid for similar products sold by standard invitation vendors. Ruth was very patient and pleasant with me to make sure my needs were met during review/proof rounds. The invitations came in a timely manner and they just as beautiful as the proof. I am getting many compliments on my invites and I am excited to know they are handmade and one of a kind.I would be very excited to work with Ruth and her team on future events and custom paper needs.Five gold stars from this bride!

Ruth at Paper Fling is so helpful, and she can literally create your dream invitation for you! We searched high and low for the perfect image of a Ranunculus, and when it was found, it looked so beautiful on our invitations. They were very reasonably priced, and she even has an option to have an "Invite Yourself" Party. This is where you come into her store with friends and assemble the invites together. It's so fun, and you save 10% that way.Go check out her store and have fun browsing all of the fun invitation and paper samples!

We loved the invitations we got from Ruth. The designs were great, and the discount for assembling them ourselves made them very affordable. The only little problem I had was that it took her a little long sometimes with sending us samples/proofs. Her selection and flexibility made it very worth the wait, though.

Convier Design was great! We worked with them to create a totally new invitation with an idea that I had in mind. It turned out so much better than I could have imagined! We were also able to come in and assemble them ourselves which was a lot of fun and saved us a little money. I would definitely recommend them to anyone who wants a custom invitation!

We ran into a few issues throughout the whole process, but overall Ruth was great to work with and really helped us get what we wanted in the end.
