Creating
custom invitations and cards was never a career path that Jessica Nicely
had envisioned for herself. Rather, it was happily stumbled upon after
she designed her own invitations for her June 2008 wedding. Frustrated
that she could not find a mass-produced design that would capture both
their personalities and the exotic Mexican destination, she came up with
her own custom look that was carried through the
save-the-date cards, invitations, menus and even a welcome brochure for
their guests.
The
results were so professional that many of the guests did not realize that
she had made them herself.
After revealing her hidden talent for design, her family and friends encouraged
her to offer her services to the public. Soon after returning from her
honeymoon, she posted several of her invitations on Etsy.com, where she
quickly attracted clients from around the world. The response gave her
the encouragement she needed to start her own business, and as she neared
the completion of her M.B.A, the timing was right.
The Stylish Scribe was established from Jessica’s own living room
in January 2009.
As The Stylish Scribe, Jessica provides a custom design experience at
a cost that makes her work accessible to anyone.
The process can be as simple as selecting a design from one of her collections,
or a consultation can be set up to create an invitation that is truly
one of a kind.
