I wanted a wax seal, letter-pressed cotton rag paper, and a hand-drawn sketch of the ceremony site. From my research, I also knew that I wanted Florida-themed vintage stamps. I was fortunate enough to have an artist in the family who created the hand-drawn art that was included on the invite. We had a beautiful invitation suite that included a hand-drawn heron and a hand-drawn view of the house and backyard garden where we held the ceremony. The art was provided by the mother of the groom and really captured the essence of the day. This made it extra special.

Alicia of A&P Design Co. is very knowledgeable about paper goods and paper quality. She made the invitation of my dreams. While assembling the invitations into their envelopes, I spritzed each with the perfume that I planned to wear on my wedding day. I had people tell me they could smell it when they opened it. This was totally extra, but it was fun!

We were lucky to stumble upon A&P Design Co. on an online search, and I'm so glad we did! We were drawn in by their range of colors and designs from really classy and elegant invitations to fun, funky ones as well. We were really drawn in by some Kate Spade and Lilly Pulitzer-inspired sets.

We worked with Alicia Rohan and had such an easy, personalized experience. We immediately got a sample package with different colors, paper, envelope, and packaging options so we could really feel and see things for ourselves. We then talked through our requests and picked out some examples from their online portfolio. Next, Alicia sent us a completely customized sample packet, and we went back and forth to make it perfect. Lastly, we did a video chat to see all the colors that we'd picked together to make sure we were ready to print!

It was also really cool that we got to do a mix of foil and letterpress printing which added some cool texture to the mix. The invitation suite turned out amazing. We got so many comments and compliments, and it set the tone for our vibe. The invitations were colorful and fun with some shimmer which was the perfect mix for us. I really loved the whole thing, but especially one of the cards in our suite which was a synopsis of the various events which was set up so nicely to provide a lot of information in a very organized and readable manner.

When it came to stationery, we wanted to make sure we could customize our invitation suite and make it custom to us as a couple and our wedding theme. We also wanted to be able to add in different accessories and details such as suite bands, stamps, and wax seals.

After researching A&P Design Co. and finding them on Marry Me Tampa Bay, we realized they were a very reputable and popular business in the Tampa Bay/St. Pete area. We initially met with Alicia at her office and were able to pick out our invitation suite and go over all the details and designs, which was cool to be able to see everything right in front of us. From there, we picked out accessories to go with our suite and also discussed Save the Dates.

Alicia was very communicative and responsive throughout the entire process. We were also happy that A&P Design Co. produces several other types of stationery so they also ended up doing our beautiful menus and place cards that matched our invitation suite.

I wanted to tie it into the colors of the wedding, the Ringling museum, and Ca'd'Zan. We pulled the shape and design from the Ca' d'Zan windows as the opening of the invitation, and then we pulled colors from the windows as the different cards within the invitation. A+P Design Co. did an amazing job on our invitations!

Our inspiration was the Banyan trees we got married under. They were so perfectly done.

I loved all of A+P Design Co‘s Instagram photos of their invitations. So beautiful. Our crest brought in some of our personality with things we love like fishing and hunting, and of course our dog Boca.

We looked for someone who could work with our ideas and make it look great! A+P Design Co was recommended by our wedding planner Lindsay. Her invitations were perfect for our style!
