Why We Know You Will Love Us

WE DO THINGS DIFFERENTLY!

WE DELIVER THE “WOW” FACTOR

IT'S ABOUT YOU AND YOUR SPECIAL DAY.

YOU are our most important client. We will set aside time to listen and understand your individual needs before making any design decisions. We want you to be happy—after all—it’s all about YOU and your special day. WOW.

WHAT WE DO DIFFERENTLY

Did you know we will be happy to print your return address on the back flap of your envelopes absolutely free. And, if you are not using a calligrapher we will be more than happy to print your guest addresses on the front of your envelope too—absolutely free. WOW.

As a matter of fact, we offer a bunch of services. Please just let us know your needs; we can discuss all the wonderful items we carry for little to no charge. YOU'LL BE SURPRISED. WOW.

PLANNING WITH US IS SUPER FUN.

You will work one-on-one with an experienced designer and sort through inspirational pieces, our basic invitations and our very clever-custom pieces. We carry oodles of quality paper, envelopes and pocket envelopes of different styles, shapes and colors. Most of all, it will be super fun working together. WOW.

THE LAST THING WE WANT IS FOR YOU TO WORRY.

We are available nearly every day to take your questions. Our brides have been extremely happy with our availability and quick response, we never leave them hanging. The last thing we want is for you to worry about the status of your invitations; there isn’t anything we can’t resolve. WOW. (See testimonials at Weddingwire.com, TheKnot.com, Facebook.com/cincinnatibydesign, and CincinnatiByDesign.com)

WE WILL NEVER SURPRISE YOU WITH EXTRA FEES.

You will know the exact fee before we begin designing. If you’re not sure about the cost of your package, just ask! We will be happy to work within you budget? WOW.

CINCINNATI BY DESIGN — WE DELIVER THE WOW FACTOR

Your invitations are the front door to your event; they set the tone for what will follow. Once your invitations are sent to your friends and family, the excitement will build and you’ll be proud to hear them say “oh WOW”!

ABOUT ME :-)

I’m Joni, the owner and designer behind the scenes at Cincinnati By Design. While I may live in the greatest city in the U.S., the internet allows me to work with clients across the continents—some as far as Los Angeles, Brazil and Canada.

With a ‘simplistic’ approach to design, my aesthetic is clean and elegant. My focus on the latest fonts and luxurious paper will enhance your invitation well above the ordinary. As always, my passion for great design is evident in every detail. It’s the "WOW FACTOR" — MY SPECIAL INGREDIENT — that’s sealed into every piece that goes out my door.

I’m fortunate to meet the most wonderful brides in the Cincinnati area and enjoy the daily challenges of wedding design. I sincerely hope to meet you soon too!

My door is always open—call me anytime. 513-888-7780. Thanks for dropping in.

Wonderful wedding invitations

Joni was wonderful. Due to Covid we had 1 save the date, 3 invitations, and 2 change of dates. Her website says "we deliver a wow factor" and she does. She is quick to respond, quick to deliver and compassionate to your needs. I would not hesitate to use her again.
