I'm going to lose it!

I love my invites but sadly I have to leave my invite girl and not continue with her for my day of stationary (menus, programs, and table numbers).

First off I'm furious with her! She has not done well to responding to my emails at all. I asked her a question last week about how she wants the wording for the program (last time she had a form for me) and she never wrote back like usual. I just received an email from her today stating that in order to have my things ready in time for the wedding I need my deposit and wording done by this Thursday. She didn't even acknowledge my questions from the email last week and does she really expect me to have this all done in a day or so??

So now I'm trying to find someone else, I guess an etsy vendor at this time. I'm upset my invites wont match everything the day of and stressing out over finding someone new.

Sorry for the rant but I'm beyond angry. I will be sending her a not so nice email tomorrow.

Ew. That's not really professional at all. And you went to a place that's raved about on here, right?

Yup I've heard of her through here. She posts pictures on facebook of children's birthday invites and other small things that can't add up to the money I was spending with her so I don't understand why you're treating me like I'm not a priority at all. Luckily we only paid for the invites so far so I don't have to fight for money back.

Well, I'm sure if you find an Etsy vendor you like and message them a picture of your invitation, they will be able to make something that will match very close.

This!! So sorry you're having a bad etsy experience! I definitely think you'll be able to find someone who can coordinate with your invites. Don't stress + definitely leave a bad review!

I didn't use an etsy vendor for the invites so you're safe. I used Whimsy B Designs in Deer Park. Can you FM your etsy person please =)

Re: I'm going to lose it!

Don't stress over not matching. These are things I guarantee your guests will NOT notice.

You're better off getting someone else that will help you keep your sanity then continue to work with this person. And don't worry no one will notice that they wont match your invites

This is so crazy to hear! I got my invitations done by whimsy b and they came out amazing!! Even better then what I had envisioned and received sooo many compliments from my guests and family members. I worked with Jessica on a custom design and she was so helpful to me because I of course had a zillion questions and wanted her opinion and thoughts on everything. They also did my other cards- programs, menus, table tents, escort cards and thank you notes for guest plates. These pieces also came out great too. This is why I'm so shocked to hear that you had a tough time.

I sent her an email letting her know I can't continue working with her and she gave me a call to apologize and try to work something out so she's extending my due date so she can make it work for me. I had no problem with her work, I absolutely love my invites it was just the fact that she takes so long to get back to me and then told me I had to have everything in within two days when she didn't even answer my previous questions.

You need to work with someone who you feel comfortable and confident with. If you are uneasy about continuing working with her I would find someone else.
You don't need anymore stress right before your wedding.
