We just started a new section on the Wild Hill Blog, called KC Vendor Love! Each month we will feature one of our favorite Kansas City wedding vendors and tell you all a little bit about why we love working with them and how they go above and beyond for our wedding clients! Keep reading to learn all about our May featured vendor, East & West Designs! They are also extra special to us as Lauren is a former #wildhillbride!
MEET LAUREN + SAMANTHA: co-founders of east + west designs
We're Lauren and Samantha—co-founders, best friends and designers behind East + West Designs. Since 2016, we've been working with couples everywhere to create custom stationery for their wedding day. At East + West, we believe in the power of first impressions, that being one-of-a-kind is more valuable than gold and that the best way to serve others is with love. Through our design experience, you'll receive more than a few paper products—you'll have more time to spend with your loved ones, the relief that everything is mailed, created and setup on time, and the satisfaction of have a wedding design that truly represents you.
We asked Lauren & Samantha a few questions! See below for more info about this talented duo and their wedding stationery company, East + West Designs!
Q.1
Do you have a favorite memory of working with Wild Hill?
“Wild Hill did the flowers at my own wedding in 2017 (Lauren)! And ever since, we’ve loved watching them grow and expand their team! Jenni has always been an inspiration for a small company like us! ”
Q. 2
Advice for brides thinking about wedding invitations?
“Don’t be afraid to make your stationery unique! You don’t have to have something you’ve seen before or exactly what you found on Pinterest! We can make something that really reflects you as a couple and reflects your wedding day as a whole. Your stationery sets the tone for the whole wedding and it’s the first piece that your guests will see, so let’s make a good first impression! ”
Q. 3
What’s New at East + West?
“We just launched a collection of semi-custom designs. These will allow couples to edit certain aspects of the design to make them work with their wedding style but it’s at a more budget friendly price-point! We are still doing our fully custom designs but we saw a need in the industry (especially during this hard time) for a budget-friendly option to stationery!”
