Maps and Accomodations Cards - Vendor Rave!

I'm not much of a poster, but since I found so many of my vendors on here, I figured I would return the favor...

For girls who are planning on doing directions/maps and/or accomodation cards, definitely check out Distinctive Directions. www.distinctivedirections.com.

I have a lot of OOTs and a lot of info to put in my invite, and I knew I wasn't going to take that on myself. I also wanted it all on one card. Amanda (the owner) is so easy to work with. She was super patient with my gazillion questions and changes to the design, and never made me feel like a crazy bride (even though I am, haha). It was so nice to work with someone who is as OCD as I am about making sure the font and ink color matched my invitations! And her prices are more reasonable than some other companies I looked at.

I just got the printed cards in the mail, and they are amazing!

Just an FYI for anyone thinking of doing this. Totally worth the $ IMHO!

This is amazing!! Thanks so much. I've seen similar companies that charge So much money. How is the paperstock?

I know! The paper stock is nice. I wanted something that looked nice but wasn't too heavy (I didn't want to add to the postage factor). I got a 'white linen' cardstock, which has a little texture to it and isn't too flimsy. I love them. Even my FH, who couldn't care less about this stuff, said how nice they are!

If you email her, she can give you the exact name of the cardstocks available...I think it's Crest 80 or 90 pound cardstock, if I remember correctly.

Thanks so much. I book marked them. I am having a wedding on the North Fork of Long Island and I wanted to map out vineyard activities and shopping!

No problem at all! She was such a sweetheart to work with, I can't recommend her enough!
Also, I found an email where she explained the papers--she's got a ton of choices, and she can do flat printing or thermography. Hope that helps!
