Coming soon....

You will be noticing some changes here in the next few weeks. I am very excited to announce that marithanson.com will no longer be a blog for me, but a functioning web site! I am still going to keep my blog updated with testimonials and other news, it will be an easy link off my site. I will also be doing a little "refreshing" to my identity as well, so stay tuned!

There will be roughly 24 hours of "down time" for my site to launch. So, if you come here to find a dead page--check back!

Featured Testimonial: Laura!

Last October, I met Laura and Drew for coffee to discuss their wedding stationary. I knew right off the bat that they were going to be a lot of fun. They have amazing wedding plans (ceremony/reception at an Art Museum with a live soul band) and a great photographer. Their save the dates showcased one of their many amazing engagement shots and also gave a good feel of not only the tone of the wedding--but their great sense of style. Laura has wonderful taste, loving all things vintage with a modern flair. And that is what I hoped to deliver to her with this invitation set.

Maria chose my concert style save the dates for her big day. These are a great way to let your guests know that this will be the "event" they do not want to miss:

We received our Save the Dates a couple of days ago and we are SO happy with them! They are so fun and creative, I can't WAIT to send them out. I know everyone's going to love them.

Featured Testimonial: Lauren!

The concert style save the date is one of my most popular designs. What a fun way to announce your big day and to show your guests this will be an event to remember! This design can be done in the form of a poster, postcard or even tickets. Send one to each guest and they will be sure to stick it on their fridge!

Lauren contacted me to make tickets to her wedding:

"Thank you so much for making our save the dates! I saw the ticket style on the website and we immediately knew it was what we wanted. The process of putting it together with you was easy, extremely timely, professional and most importantly stress-free! The finished product leaves nothing to be desired. These save the dates not only serve as a great reflection of our big day to come for our guests, but also a great framed piece for us to always remember it by. Thank you again, you rock!"

Featured Testimonial: Cori!

It's been two weeks since I posted...where does time go? These save the dates are for Cori, who I went to high school with many moons ago. She saw these save the dates I created for Keri, and wanted them made into a postcard and customized to her wedding colors. No problem! Here's how they came out:

Matt and I LOVE our save the date cards! We've gotten so many compliments on them, and they've gotten all of our family and friends even more excited about the big day! You did an amazing job bringing our colors and theme to life, which made me feel confident in our choices for the look and feel we have planned for the wedding! We can't wait to see how the invitations turn out! Thanks so much!
