ABOUT US

The story behind Linen & Pine Designs

When I was planning my own wedding in 2019, I fell in love with creating and matching all of the special details

From the bridesmaid dresses being the same color and material as the ribbon around my invitations…to the ink color matching my wedding ring, and my main wedding colors becoming my brand colors,

I realized it was so hard to find a place that did it all and could make it all look cohesive and on theme. It was a lot of time and stress searching, planning, pricing, and that was with me

having a background in design and art already.. So I decided to offer these services to you, so they are all perfectly crafted to create a cohesive style and look for your event!

Our name meaning: Linen reflects a textured & traditional paper, and Pine is reflective of our design inspirations from nature and a woodsy, organic, feel and color scheme to match.

Our logo-mark depicts two branches joining together and tied with a bow

MEET YOUR DESIGNER

Hi, I’m Collette!

Designer, Founder, one-woman-show, multi-passionate creative.

I pride myself on curating unique, alternative, and fully custom designs in which case no two are alike, that sets the tone for your event. They’re craftfully designed for YOU.

I’m an artist and graphic designer of over 11 years. My work is for the grown up myspace kid, the creative soul, the ones who care about the moments, the feelings, and all the details.

When I’m not working, I love to camp, travel, and spend time with my husband and two big fluffy dogs Tucker and Juniper. Oh yeah and I own/operate two other businesses.

Let’s create magic together.

The more creative freedom we are given, the better the outcome.

DESIGN FEES:

Design fees are the cost of your custom designs and basically hiring me for your stationery package. I am an expert in color, design, and artistic abilities and execution. This fee includes my time for prep & planning, ordering and sourcing materials, designing all of your custom designs, full expert assembly of all pieces (to save you SO much time and headache), sending proofs and mockups, and includes any and all revisions needed to perfect your art pieces. Meaning you can change it as much as you want until you LOVE it!

Fully Custom Suite (3 pieces or more set): 10-20 week turnaround. Please book at least 4 months before your send out date

Design Fee Starts at $1200 with expert assembly & an Heirloom Keepsake Box included

You can assemble your own suites, however we don’t typically recommend it as we know the best, quickest, and most beautiful way to assemble your invitations. And it saves you SO much time and headache. If you’re spending the money on custom invitations, it’s worth it.

Fully Custom Suite (Invite + Rsvp Only): Design Fee Starts at $950 with assembly & special gift included

Fully Custom Save the Date: Design Fee Starts at $400

Fully Custom Event Card: Design Fee Starts at $250 (birthdays, announcements, showers) *2 revisions included

Day of Stationery: Design Fees priced per design/product

OVERALL COSTS:

It’s important to know what things actually cost, outside of outdated bridal blogs by big corps. Think time, experience, design, style, product costs, print costs, shipping costs, high-end materials. The actual total of your invitation package depends on what items you choose, and it can vary drastically.

Average investment totals are between $1,650-$5,500 for a fully custom suite.

Or $2,500-$7,500+ if purchasing full service and day of stationery & event branding.

Costs can vary greatly depending on paper type, print process, hand-painted/hand-drawn items, and added embellishments.

THE BENEFIT:

Think about how long it may take you to design, change, research and come up with ideas on Canva or DIY, return items, that don’t quite match up or look how you want them to... When you hire a custom designer we take all of that out of the picture and we create for you. We know the best products to use, where to source them, event etiquette, how to make sure things are legible and understandable so your guests don’t bother YOU.

As well as the gratitude of supporting a local, small, and women-owned business who really cares about the details and quality touch.
