About:
Hi, I'm Sarah and I'm the owner of Sproullie Designs. Prior to starting my business, I had a background in art, design, and entrepreneurship but was not actively using those skills- I was working as a registered nurse. While planning my destination wedding in 2007, I discovered a need for quality, custom stationery and wedding invitations and set out to create my own. From the save-the-dates to the invitations, the menus, favors, programs and welcome letters, I created a look that reflected my unique and elegant personal style with a nod toward our tropical Mexican destination. People were astounded to learn that I hadn't hired a personal designer or wedding planner - I'd designed and created my wedding paper accessories myself.
Within just a few short months after my wedding, word travelled fast, and dozens of people literally from around the globe had heard about my work from family, friends and a wedding forum I belonged to, and had commissioned me to create a custom stationery suite that would set their wedding apart as anything but average. In less than a year, my "side job" had turned into a full-time business for my husband and I. Now, nearly three years out, Sproullie Designs is busier than ever! I'm so thankful every day to have a creative outlet where I get to interact with brides from all over the world, helping them bring their wedding dreams to reality. My business began with a focus on destination weddings, but I also create traditional wedding invitations, logos, shower and party invitations, corporate announcements and cards, baby announcements, christmas cards and personal stationery, as well as custom photobook design.
My previous customers are my best advertisement and greatest asset. I appreciate all the referrals over the years and the success my tireless customer service has brought me. It is my greatest joy to be able to discover your personal wedding style and transfer that to a tangible product. With something for every budget, each invitation is lovingly handcrafted in my studio by myself and my talented assistants with the utmost of care and pride. Whether you've seen a design on my website that has inspired you or you'd like to work with me to begin an original concept, I look forward to creating something fresh, modern and exciting for the most important day of your life!
All the best,
Sarah

We were extremely happy with our boarding pass invitations. The communication was very prompts and we received our invitations much sooner than we originally expected.
Sarah was even nice enough to let me know where to buy the fonts that they used on our invitations, so that we could match the rest of the printed materials related to our wedding to them. Than was very nice.
Everyone that has received the invitations has taken time to comment on how beautiful they are.

Pros: Super creative, unique invitations, good pricing, fast turnaround
Cons: NONE!
First of all, thanks to Sarah for introducing me to this forum! What a great resource!
I found Sarah on Etsy and from our first communication, I knew she was the perfect match for my wedding invitations. I've worked in the wedding planning industry for 10 years and have dealt with many different vendors so I'd set the bar pretty high. Sarah and Christina were so helpful and professional. My invitations exceeded my wildest expectations and my guests are so impressed. My sister got married last

Pros: Everything! Beautiful quality, quick turnaround, professional communication and service.
Cons: She's really busy - but I don't think that's a really a con, it just means she's really good! But plan ahead!
Sarah and her Sproullie Designs team were so helpful during my ordering process. I'd had a bad experience with another Etsy vendor and everything they did completely set my mind at ease. Christina, the customer service rep was great at helping me choose a design and guided me through the process. Once we started into the design, Sarah was wonderful at communicating all changes needed and helped me stay within my budget. My guests RAVED about my saved the dates and I will be back for invitations

AI just want to the time out to say how I absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE my postcard Save the dates from Sproullie Designs. Sarah's work is remarkable and her team is awesome. There was a high level of professionalism while working with Sarah and she was understanding and very helpful in the designing process. She returned emails promptly and was very patient in the process. When she noticed a slight issue in timing of submitting the first draft she acted quickly and responded in the appropriate man

Pros: Quality product, beautiful designs
Cons: horrible communication, does not respond to emails, does not give contact phone number, does not stick to start dates, very stressful to deal with
We initially began working with them to make our save the dates, ceremony invitations, receptions invitation, and place cards. We later added program fans and bridal shower invitations. Everything was to be custom designed except for the bridal shower invitations. Our save the dates and ceremony invitations turned out beautiful. Sarah and her team responded promptly to my emails and stuck to their start dates. We also had a great experience with our bridal shower invitations. However, after that

AWe found Sarah on Etsy and it was truly a godsend as we were slightly behind schedule with getting our Save the Dates out for our wedding in Playa Del Carmen. Although she does custom designs we were able to find what we needed from her gallery of work. Now that we are back on schedule we are looking forward to creating our invitations with her.

My passport invitations are so perfect for my destination wedding. I love the invitations and so does everyone else who's seen them so far. Everyone was very impressed with the quality and design and the colors match perfectly. Sarah was very quick to respond to my questions and knew exactly what I wanted! I definitely recommend Sproullie designs!

Pros: Sarah, quality, color, professionalism, unique
Cons: Not a single thing.
I found Sproullie on ETSY, and it was the best discovery of my entire wedding planning thus far!!!! I had the passport invitations made for my destination wedding in May to the Bahamas. Sproullie were VERY thorough about what I was looking for, wanted, and imagined my invitations to be. Once I began working with Sarah, the process was seamless. Sarah worked with me through my indecisiveness, pickiness, grammar checks - and rechecks.
Sarah was more than accommodating of any and all changes tha

Pros: Creative, Friendly, Lots of Communication, Exactly what I wanted!!
Cons: None
I cannot say enough good things about Sproullie Designs. I found Sarah on Etsy and Sarah along with her team created my Save the Date postcards that were exactly what I wanted for my destination wedding. They turned out amazing and I've received so many compliments on them.
So, I turned to Sproullie Designs again when it came time to design our wedding invitations. They got exactly what I was looking for and created the perfect design. I fell in love with them instantly. Sproullie Designs i

Pros: Creative, Excellent Craftsmanship
We did our Save the Dates (postcards) and wedding invitations (Passports) with Sproullie Designs and both turned out better than we ever could have expected. The response from friends and family has just been overwhelmingly positive, with messages like "CUTEST invitations ever!" and "The most creative and unique invitations I have ever seen!" Sarah, the owner was a joy to work with and was the perfect blend of patience (had numerous updates throughout the project) and creativity. I highly highly

Pros: Responsiveness
My fiance and I were torn on what to do for the "perfect" wedding invites for our destination wedding in Saint Lucia. We thought we wanted gorgeous letterpressing but we also wanted something that was specfic to a happy, lively, beachy destination and not as formal as letterpressed invites can be. Most of all, we wanted something that our guests would really love and possibly hold onto as a keepsake.
We discovered Sproullie on etsy.com and never looked back.

Sarah was a pleasure to work with. I am so happy that I chose her to make my STD postcards. I contacted Sarah because I could not find the listing for the postcards I wanted when I was finally ready to purchase. She got back to my so quickly by e-mail within I believe twenty minutes. Once I purchased the actually $20.00 design fee she was great about getting me a rough draft. The first draft was perfect, everything I could of ever imagined for my STD's for our wedding. Once I made my purchase fo

Pros: creative, unique, prefessional, prompt, understanding
Cons: NONE
Pure perfection!!!! The invitations Sarah created for my upcoming June wedding are absolutely amazing! She was able to design a look that complimented our wedding ideas in every way! I was searching for about 8 months to find someone that would be able to capture the vision in my head and put it on paper with no luck...that was until I stumbled on Sarah's etsy web page! Sarah is very professional, understanding, prompt, and creative. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for unique invi

Pros: dynamic, patient, artistic, reasonable
Cons: none
Let me start off by saying that prior to contacting anyone for prices etc. I did as much research as I could and read any reviews that I could find. I find that this helps me to know what to expect albeit it good or bad. So I already knew that response wasn't going to be super speed, however; it wasn't slow either. Sarah had at least a 3-5 day turnaround time. And for me this was fine as I plan ahead.
So after reading, viewing and contacting Sarah from Sproullie Designs, my heart was

Pros: Amazing craftsmanship, very unique
Cons: none
I love my boarding pass save the dates! They look amazing! I got so many compliments on them. No one had ever seen anything like them. It took a while to get them right after putting in my order, but Sarah was great about making changes I asked for and getting back to me as soon as possible. I am planning on using Sproullie Designs for my invitations in a few months. I highly recommend Sproullie Designs!

Pros: Beautiful, unique invites
Cons: Communication
I absolutely love my boarding pass invites. I just sent them out & have already received a lot of compliments on them. The whole process took a little longer than I expected though. I know the holidays are a busy time of year, but it would take on average 5 days to get a reply email. I would definitely use Sproullie Designs again but next time I would start the process sooner.

Pros: Spectacular product, super easy to work with
Cons: Communication
Sarah is one of the best invitation & design vendors out there. Period. She created our dream passport invitations and they’re absolutely amazing! As one would imagine, she gets quite busy. We waited a bit longer than expected to receive the finished product but the wait was worth it because we were beyond pleased. So grateful to have worked with her and would do it again in a heartbeat!

Pros: customer service, individuality, attention to detail
I fell in love with Sarah's work instantly when I saw it on Etsy. Her aesthetic matched my visions for stationary perfectly! I ordered Save the Date postcards from Sarah and they turned out not only beautifully, but were reasonably priced as well! I also ordered boarding pass invites from Sarah. She was very attentive to all of my requests and was SO easy to work with. My invites just arrived and are even more beautiful than they were on the computer screen. I would recommend Sarah to any

Pros: Beautiful images, great reviews
Cons: Poor communication, lack of timely responses, lack of accountability
Well, I hate to be the Debbie Downer of the crowd but I’d rather that than to have another B2B encounter an experience similar to ours with Sarah of Sproullie Designs….
I contacted Sarah via Etsy after checking out her beautiful invitations and positive reviews and was immediately sold that she was “the one” to handle our boarding pass invitation order. After reading all of the glowing reviews on this site, there was no hesitation whatsoever to place our invitation package orders with h

When I first saw this site I couldn't believe the work Sarah has done for other brides. I definitely didn't think I could afford to get passports for my save the dates but I was shocked when I saw the prices. I did pay extra to get them done quicker and it was worth the extra couple bucks. I got my passports so quickly and they were more beautiful than I could have imagined. I originally wanted a design I saw on her site but she made up something different for me and I ended up falling in love w

Pros: Great designs, Great work, great to work with
Cons: beginning communication
When I first joined the site I seen passport invitations and seen Sarah's site and knew that I HAD to order them from her! Her work is exceptional!!!! I barely needed any major changes. My fiance was very impressed when he seen the first draft. I took them to show my co-workers and everyone LOVED them!! I just can't wait until my guess sees them! I just wish the communication in the beginning wasn't so bad. I'm not sure what was happening but he wasn't receiving my emails. Once I sent the pm and

Pros: Beatiful designs, easy to work with, flexible & accomodating
Cons: Sometimes return emails can take a while
We love our passport invites that Sarah designed! When we received the first set of proofs we were thrilled, but we wanted a few minor changes. Sarah was totally willing to change things around and work with us to make them perfect. When we received them in the mail we couldn't believe it - they are gorgeous!! We're sending them out today and I can't wait to see what our guests think!
We got the passport invites, RSVP boarding passes, and envelopes with guest and return addresses (I will
