  Paper by the Bay did all of the paper products for every aspect of our wedding!

  Where do I even begin with how much I adore and am forever grateful for Paper by the Bay?! First of all - If you'd like your guests to compliment your stationary and day of paper items even months after your wedding, I'd hire Kelly immediately. The compliments continue to come even 6+ months after!
  
  Kelly, the owner of Paper by the Bay is such an incredible talent. Creating our paper items was by far my favorite part of wedding planning (I am a sucker for great paper goods!) & I have no doubt that I enjoyed the process so much because of Kelly!
  
  A few areas of note:
  - Kelly has such a wonderful eye for design. She can seamlessly take a phone call/email full of her client's ideas and somehow turn it into a beautiful concept that far exceeds your expectations. She has a wide set of skills in her toolbox that are incredibly useful when designing a full suite of items for your wedding day!
  
  - She is extremely responsive, communicative, and will go above and beyond to ensure you love your finished product. I was shocked at how quickly during the planning process she sent me (cross country!) different paper items for me to feel and really get a sense of. She would set up regular phone calls for us to go over her latest designs to ensure my (then fiance & now husband!) & I loved our latest mock up and always had solutions for anything we wanted to change! We had custom napkins made with Kelly where she literally illustrated our venue. Originally, I thought something like that would take an incredibly long time to create, but not with Kelly. She was so thoughtful and listened to us so much that she knew exactly how to execute - guests have even told me they saved their unused napkins because of how beautiful they turned out!
  
  - Kelly is such a problem solver! I personally think this is one of her greatest strengths (outside of her incredible design talent!), but I also think problem solving is one of the greatest strengths to have in the wedding industry. Any time we had an issue, Kelly had a solution. We utilized a "Love Notes" wall where guests would walk up to find a personalized note along w/ their table assignment all created by Kelly. She worked with us to find fonts that were similar to our handwriting to make them realistic and worked seamlessly with our planner to problem solve on how to secure them to the greenery wall we envisioned them on.
  
  We still have our stationary displayed in our home as well as our wedding day items. Did I mention last minute she whipped together gorgeous vow books for my husband and I??
  
  If you are searching for a talented, thoughtful, and genuinely amazing human to add to your team of wedding vendors - look no further. I promise you will not be disappointed and will soon be writing a review just like this one. Kelly is your girl! Thank you for all your help, Kelly!!!

  We highly recommend Kelly for wedding stationery design. Thank you for everything!

  Kelly was an absolute pleasure to work with. She listened to our vision and she created a beautiful invitation and accompanying paper details. Her fonts, monogram, custom stamps for the invitation were beautiful. Her suggestions and ideas created a most beautiful invitation suite. Many of our guests commented they had never received such a lovely wedding invitation. Her assembly and tying of the silk ribbon was perfect. Kelly was always quick to respond to any question. Highly recommend her!

  Kelly is an absolute pleasure to work with! She listened to our thoughts, understood the look and feel we wanted and created truly beautiful pieces to reflect that vision. Her level of professionalism, creativity and skill are unparalleled. Every piece is designed and crafted with the utmost care and amazing attention to detail. Whether it was typefaces, style of calligraphy, the color shade of ribbon or the size of a favor tag, Kelly had an expert eye to put everything together in the most beautiful way possible. From start to finish, Kelly worked to ensure every piece in our wedding suite was perfect and that it had a distinctive, cohesive feel. She helped us with everything from our save the dates and invitation suite to programs, menus, escort cards and assorted wedding day pieces all the way through to thank you notes – any personal touch that you could possibly want for your wedding, she can deliver. I would highly recommend Kelly and Paper by the Bay to anyone!

  Kelly created Thanksgiving cards for our company. She was thoughtful in her work, prompt on her delivery time and created a beautiful product for us to share with all of our clients! I would recommend Paper by the Bay for greeting cards, wedding invitations, holiday cards, special events or any stationary or paper product need. The entire experience and final product will far exceed any initial expectations!

  Kelly was such a dream to work with! My fiance and I had some ideas of what we wanted our invitation suite to look like but we were overwhelmed by the possibilities. Kelly really helped guide us and we LOVED our final suite so much! She was really responsive and everything was shared and delivered ahead of time. We didn't have to worry about any follow-up with Kelly which was a relief since there were so many other vendors to coordinate with! Above all, we were obsessed with our final invitations - and I never thought I would feel that way about paper goods! :)

  Kelly is incredible to work with! She is such a talented designer, very professional, flexible, and is super quick and efficient. She has beautiful calligraphy and design ideas, many of which played such an important part in our wedding. Kelly designed our save the date, invitation suite, and the paper goods & signs for our wedding day. I highly recommend hiring Kelly for any design or printing needs for your wedding or other event. She is fabulous to work with and I am so lucky that we were able to work with her!

  Kelly was incredibly helpful, responsive and flexible from start to finish with the design and production aspects of our wedding invitations. They turned out exactly how I was hoping - gorgeous! I know that she has so many additional creative talents beyond the lovely product she created for us. I highly recommend her services to anyone in need of beautiful, quality paper items.

  Kelly of Paper by the Bay, is Ah-Mazing! She took the ideas, colors, concepts, theme and style of the party I was designing, and came up with the PERFECT invitation design. She even did a few 'extras' for me that I requested that she had never done before and they were exactly what I had envisioned them to be! She is so easy to work with and 'gets it' when it comes to making your vision come to reality. I HIGHLY recommend hiring Kelly, owner of Paper by the Bay to take care of all your printing needs!

  The vendor was sufficient for our wedding invitation and designed a beautiful invitation. The challenge was that she took us on as she was going on maternity leave and tried to squeeze us in. The process felt a little rushed and final product seemed to not reflect as much effort.
