Beyond Excellent! 12/10!

We couldn't be happier with the incredible work Melissa at Utility House did on our wedding invitations, RSVP cards, and envelopes! Opening them was a breathtaking experience. From the packaging and design to the texture and intricate details, everything was meticulously crafted and perfectly captured our vision. I had a very specific vision (which included a venue illustration and deckled edges) and she nailed it—our invitations were beyond our expectations.

Beyond being such a sweetheart, Melissa was wonderful to work with throughout the entire process. She kept us informed and made sure every detail was just right. She is very professional and on top of her game.

Thank you endlessly for bringing our vision to life! We can't wait to see the additional stationery you create for our big day.

Sincerely,
Kaitlyn (a very happy bride-to-be!)

Beautiful Seating Chart

Utility House Design Co was recommended to me by my sister in law who worked with Melissa during their wedding planning process. I am so happy I chose Utility House Design Co to design and create our seating chart. Melissa is very responsive, understanding, creative and she will make your vision come to life. I would highly recommend her services.

Wedding invitations


My experience with Melissa was nothing less than perfect. From the moment we first met I knew our styles aligned perfectly and that she was going to create something truly special for us. There is no one better than Melissa, she is extremely talented and is able to figure out exactly what your dreaming of and make it a reality! We were in love with our invites, save the dates, thank you cards, menus, seating charts and all the signage for our wedding. I love working with Melissa so much I have not used anyone else to create all my other paper needs, she has done birth announcements, Christmas cards, bridal shower invitations, birthday invitations and anything else I’ve ever needed. Choosing Melissa to work with was the easiest and best decision I made.

Attention to ALL the details

Getting our invites was a great experience from start to finish. Melissa was welcoming and had TONS of options around how to print, what to print on and colours. Melissa was so patient in walking us through how it all works and had gorgeous samples to help us figure out what we were looking for. She was attentive, and responsive and didn't mind all the fiddly little changes we wanted to make to the copy.
Invites were packaged and delivered beautifully to us.. I almost didn't want to send them! She was able to give us simple, vintage inspired, elegant invitations which we've had so many compliments on!

Truly customized for the couple you are!

Melissa was fantastic from start to finish! After only meeting her once, she was able to create something that felt so “us”. She was also so humble when receiving small feedback and open to collaborate, which is a value point many vendors (especially in the wedding industry) often forget. Will be using her for more milestones in the future!
