Karri Lee Designs is a custom stationery studio specializing in personal, custom pieces. Karri, the Owner and Creative Director behind the self-named business, and though we work with her most often on wedding stationery, she does so much more! She has the mind of magic, as she takes such ordinary, everyday details and puts them on paper in the most beloved way!
In the digital age, stationery has proven to be important and valuable to its recipients. Stationery is the introduction loved ones have to the coming celebration. It’s also an element of impact that provides memories of some of the most significant times in our lives. Looking back at a friend’s RSVP cards she saved, there were handwritten notes from her grandparents who were no longer here. The sentimentality of their handwriting, their quips, and their love is something that she has because of that piece of paper.
One of the best parts about stationery is you can do anything with it. You can introduce new and different materials and be as adventurous with colors, styles, and shapes as you’d like. We’ve been fortunate to partner with Karri Lee Designs on a number of weddings, celebrations, and editorial shoots over the years — even some personal projects!
Each and every time, she brings new life and zest to the project at hand, elevating such a significant detail. She is wildly creative and makes this part of the process fun, engaging, thoughtful, and oh-so-beautiful! She also embraces her work with personal touches and authentic memories. She creates a moment within her work that’s unique to every single person she designs for.
Below are a handful of our favorite pieces from Karri Lee Designs!
One of our favorite elements about this stationery was including Martin, the couple’s pup, and the MVP of the day. No soul in M+M’s life doesn’t know and adore Martin, and it’s clear to see why, even from a watercolor image. See more of how their stationery ties into the full wedding design here.
This stationery suite was for a dear friend and colleague, Flowers by Justine. Married in Florida with the inspiration of golf, whiskey, and flowers, Karri involved these elements for a cohesive suite. Excitement was abundant with the inclusion of color and pattern within the suite. You may even notice the nod to the linens we brought in!
These various wedding stationery images include elements personal to the couples. You’ll see a family home where the celebration was held. You’ll also see a collection of locations documenting the pivotal moments of one couple’s relationship.
The last photo showcases one of my favorite details from a past Fall wedding. Here, Karri created a custom bar panel that emulated the pattern of our bride’s dress. It is exquisite and unexpectedly fresh!
