Homepage Testimonials

“I initially was on the fence about investing in custom paper goods, but after falling in love with Jessie’s work on Instagram I had to reach out. There are wedding vendors who just check the box, and then there are ones who jump in the car with you and truly help you get things done–Jessie is for sure the latter, and we couldn't be more grateful to her. Hiring Papergarten was honestly one of the BEST wedding decisions we made, and we couldn't recommend her more!

Colleen C., Washington, D.C.

“Jessie was my favorite vendor I worked with. She was easy-going, organized, and communicative. So many of our guests complimented the paper and invites, and we had many who even told us that they wanted to keep or frame them! We did a beautiful tri-fold map for the invites and it was stunning. Overall, Jessie was a delight to work with and is so talented! I highly recommend working with her.”

Emma C., Dallas, TX

“A five star review does not do Papergarten justice. If I could, I would give infinite stars. She listens to your ideas, dreams & desires and creates something much more than you could have imagined. I cannot recommend Jessie enough! She will bring your dreams to life & you will have a blast creating it all with her!!!”

Avery C., Waxahachie, TX

“I hired Jessie to work on my custom watercolor invitation suite for my wedding in Miami. She was by far my favorite vendor I worked with across all of the vendors for my wedding. She is so incredibly talented–my stationery came out so beautifully, I got endless compliments on it from wedding guests. Jessie was a breeze to work with–listened to my vision, translated it perfectly into watercolor, and was extremely responsive and easy to communicate with. I couldn't recommend her more!”

Sara M., Miami, FL

THE BEST OF THE BEST! Papergarten far exceeded my expectations! From Jessie's excellent customer service to the fair pricing to the quality of the artwork – everything was perfect. I wholeheartedly recommend Papergarten to anyone seeking a custom illustration, wedding invitation suite, or any artwork at all. You will be in great hands.

“Working with Jessie and Papergarten was an absolute dream! From the stamps that dawned Smokey the Bear for my husband’s job to the lovely yellow and red roses, the invitations were my favorite detail. Jessie is so talented and was a joy to work with!”
