I wish i had read the reviews before placing an order with them. Don't disregard the 1 star review, they are 100% accurate. I had the same experience. These people are scammers. They take orders and then stall for weeks with little to no communication. I am leaving the country in 7 days. Invitations were supposed to be going out but now i have to get local invites rather than the custom ones i wanted. The excuse i initially got was 'i am moving', 'i need to recoup' and then when i put my foot down and said i dont have time, the excuse turned to 'X has cancer'. Fraud! read more

I am literally at a loss for words with how I should rate this vendor. When I say this was the most unprofessional person I have ever worked with I mean it. The vendor threatened to bully and sue me into not writing this negative review after she failed to create wedding invitations for myself and my wife on time. This was due to her failure to answer my emails and send out samples during the process and then finally she refused to issue me a refund once the wedding date had passed due to no fault of my own. Please be aware that the owner has changed the name of the company to SeaHorsebendpress as well as La Belle Vie Design. http://www.etsy.com/shop/seahorsebendpress Unless you are trying to give yourself a wedding nightmare stay as far away from this vendor as possible. Look on wedding wire for even more negative reviews. read more

I wish I had known about the posted review before I had my experience with these people. Essentially, when you strip it all away they are little more than common criminals and scammers. I paid them to do a job six months ago and I still have not received one single item and I have paid them thousands. They took a small fortune, several thousand, and have delivered nothing. I got a bad feeling about them early on and tried to get my money back to no avail. So I put pressure on them to finish....its been an uphill struggle all the way. Unanswered emails, stalling and delaying tactics, etc etc When push came to shove they both turned nasty and said they will no longer work with me. Well, if I had gotten my product months ago I wouldn't have pressured them for what I paid for. In the end I was sent several nasty emails. So, I had my lawyer call to try and reason with them. They thumbed their nose at him. So I sent a detective and come to find out they are already being investigated for fraud. Well, I will join the other person in pressing charges because if I cant get my money back then they should be out of business. In summery: STAY AWAY FROM THESE CRIMINALS! read more

Last year, I entered and won a contest through Jennifer Herrington for free wedding invitations. A steal right? Well, not quite. After being in constant contact with her and providing her detailed information as far as the number of invites we would need, and filling out questionnaire, we were so excited to work with Jennifer for our invitation suite. Then, literally 3wks before my invitation mail out date, she informs me that she will not be able to produce the custom invitation suite I requested because it was outside of the scope of what she was willing to offer for the contest (which was not previously specified). She did apologize for this and offered to still do our custom suite but it would take like 6wks to get it produced (which would set us behind schedule with our invitation mail out for a destination wedding) or we could pay her $700-$900 (in addition to the worth of the package we won) to produce our invitation suite. Obviously because we'd won a contest posted on her blog several months before, this was not something we budgeted for. So there was no way we could afford to pay her after she'd already promised to do our stationary for free. She then offered to give us thank you notes and menus instead, and as I began to send her correspondence to accept those instead...she stopped answering my emails. She advertised her contest because she wanted to 'pay it forward' it seems to me she was just out to make money. I ended up creating my own fabulous invitations through my stationer, Sara Goff of 'Signatures by Sarah' and printing them locally. The total cost: 1/3 of what Jennifer was charging me. Do not give this lady your business, find someone more willing to keep their word and follow through with their promises. read more
