Custom wedding invitations, designed in Michigan and mailed anywhere
your story on
pretty paper
Your wedding invitation is the first thing your guests hold that tells them, this wedding is going to be so you. Custom means it's designed from scratch, around your venue, your colors, your inside jokes, and the little details nobody else would think to include. You don't need to show up with a vision. Show up with a Pinterest board, a feeling, or a list of things you hate, and I'll take it from there.
daisy lane's Philosophy
why choose custom?
Because your guests can tell. A custom suite is the one that ends up framed, stuck on the fridge, and passed around at the shower. It's built for your wedding and nobody else's, with every piece working together: the invitation, the RSVP, the details card, and the envelope that makes your mail carrier jealous. And you get a person, not a website. I'm the one designing it, answering your questions, and making sure it's perfect before a single piece goes to print.
They are so beautiful, I could cry!

initial Consultation
Book a consultation call or fill out my questionnaire, whichever feels easier. We'll talk paper, printing, your style, your venue, and the stuff you already know you don't want. Zero pressure to decide anything yet.
custom proposal
I'll turn everything we talked about into a design direction with three pricing options built around your wedding. You choose the one that fits your vision and your budget. You can always start at Tier 1 and work your way up throughout the proofing process.
Design Samples and Proofing
You'll get a sample kit in the mail so you can actually feel the papers, print methods, and colors. Then I'll send two digital design options to mix, match, and tweak. Not feeling either one? We start fresh, because you should love these.
Production and assembly
Once every detail is perfect and approved, I print, assemble, address, stamp and mail every envelope. You get to skip the hand cramps and go straight to the compliments.
the Signature Approach
here is exactly what to expect
Custom suites start at $1500
- Tier 1: your full custom suite, beautifully printed, no extras.
- Tier 2: your suite plus one or two finishing touches like wax seals, envelope liners, vellum, ribbon, or a venue illustration. This is where most couples land once they see it.
- Tier 3: finishing touches plus a luxury print method like letterpress, foil, embossing, or a watercolor map.
No guessing, no surprise fees at the end. Every custom suite includes your sample kit, custom design, a 5-piece invitation suite (or a 3/4-piece suite if you're keeping it simple), guest addressing, assembly, postage, and an elevated keepsake presentation. From there, your proposal gives you three options:
The Investment
Frequently asked Questions
How many invitations do I need?
Probably fewer than you think! Invitations go to households, not people, so a couple gets one invitation, not two. My rule of thumb: take your guest count, divide it in half, and add 25. Inviting 300 guests? Order 175. The extra cushion covers keepsakes and any second-round invites.
How long will my invitations take?
Once you approve your proofs, printing and delivery take 3 to 6 weeks. The design part moves at your pace. To keep everything relaxed, start the design process about 5-6 months before your wedding.
What's included in my package?
Your sample kit, custom design, full invitation suite, guest addressing, assembly, and postage. Finishing touches and luxury print methods can be added, and your proposal will show exactly what each one costs.
WHEN SHOULD I SEND MY INVITATIONS?
10 to 12 weeks before your wedding, or 5 to 6 months out for a destination wedding. Save the dates go out 9 to 10 months ahead. Pro tip: set your RSVP date 2 to 4 weeks before your venue needs your final count.
Will I get a sample of my actual invitation?
You'll get a detailed digital mockup of your entire suite, postage and embellishments included, so you see exactly what your guests will open. Before we design, your sample kit lets you feel the real papers, print methods, and colors in your hands.
Do you do day-of paper and signage too?
Absolutely! Seating charts, programs, menus, place cards, welcome signs, and big statement structures, all designed to match your invitations.

spots are limited
check your date
Since every suite is designed by me, I only take three custom invitation clients a month at my $1,500 minimum. Once those spots fill, the minimum moves to $2,500 and I take just two more. If you've been thinking about it, now's the time to grab a call and see what's open for your wedding month. You've got this. And I've got you
