CLASSIC & REFINED

expertly crafted stationery

that fits your style and matches your colors?

Yes, it does exist!

At Banter & Charm, I take a different approach to bespoke wedding invitations.

No more frustration over invitations that are almost what you’re looking for, or wondering how to make someone else’s idea of classic fit your vision.

Say goodbye to intimidating custom design processes and struggling to put into words the timeless style you’re envisioning.

bespoke wedding invitations

Every invitation in Banter & Charm’s wedding collection can be customized to perfectly suit your style. You can change the colors, fonts, wording, and paper – all at no additional cost! I also offer a variety of premium options like edge painting, calligraphy, and die-cut shapes.

But maybe you want an invitation design tailored specifically to your wedding location. You want an invitation design that is classy and timeless, but not ordinary. Perhaps you have a special size or shape in mind or would like to incorporate a symbol that represents a significant moment in your relationship. In that case, bespoke is the way to go!

Whether you choose a collection design or bespoke design, I will be working one-on-one with you to create the invitation of your dreams.

CUSTOM DESIGN PROCESS

We’ll start by getting to know each other. Tell me how you met and where you got engaged. Is the wedding going to be in a small chapel or a cathedral? Send me your pinterest boards* and magazine clippings, and I’ll mail you paper swatches and ribbon samples. We’ll collaborate to create a stunning paper suite tailor-made for you.
 

While I’d like to create bespoke wedding invitations for every couple, it’s a good idea to make sure our aesthetics match up first. My specialty is classic and traditional designs with elegant typography and minimal accents. Now that doesn’t mean I never step out of my comfort zone, but if you are looking for lifelike portraits or something with an ultra-modern vibe, we may not be a good match.

*I’d love to see any invitations that caught your eye, but I will not replicate another designer’s work.

I absolutely loved working with Annie on her weddi I absolutely loved working with Annie on her wedding stationery. But even more than all the pretty paper we collaborated on, I'm so glad that I was a helpful and happy part of her wedding planning ♥️⁠
"Working with Sarah at Banter and Charm was one of my most favorite memories in wedding planning. Above all else, Sarah is a professional, and you know it immediately. She has a lovely process for brides who can’t meet in person, and provides such helpful insight as the process evolves. On top of that, she elevated my vision and gave me a keepsake that I will always treasure. Sarah is helpful, creative and so on top of it, I am grateful for her beautiful work!"⁠
⁠
Thank you so much for the kind words, Annie!⁠

Sometimes you fall in love with an invitation desi Sometimes you fall in love with an invitation design, but wish that the font was a little different. Maybe you have a fancier script in mind, or a mid-century sans-serif to compliment your art deco theme. Or maybe you don't like how your name looks in that pretty script font in the sample design. Either way, you're welcome to switch out the font in any of the designs shown on my site.⁠
These two photos show versions of my "Basilica" design - each one uses a different script font for the bride and groom's names- both lovely in their own way, but with a slightly different feel.⁠

Try this gorgeous combo: the text and details are printed on thick paper with a foil stamp vellum overlay. Keep the front of the save the date simple, but add more wedding details to the back! Finish it all off with a custom envelope liner, and you have a save the date that your guests will be talking about for years!⁠
