We are so happy we stumbled upon Smitten on Paper. We are getting married in September at a beautiful venue and wanted our invites to reflect the same feel. Smitten is definitely a higher-end invitation store but what makes them best, is their customer service. We were lucky enough to have Dylan Polanco as our designer. She has gone above and beyond with showing us options, samples and most importantly her time. We are very picky and rather demanding but Dylan never fell short. She exceeded our expectations on every occasion. We have finally finalized our invitation and are ready to print. If you're tempted to try this place out, I suggest you do and ask for Dylan! Although the invites are pricey, the saying is true, "you get what you pay for." The quality is great but more importantly, the great customer service from our designer justifies the price.

really lovely place for workshops and if you are like me - love paper and pens. always find something cool or darling to take home to the office! However, depending on who is in, the staff can vary from being aloof to really warm and pleasant. I would like more of the warm and pleasant

Been following them on Instagram for a while and finally got a chance to get there when they're open. Fantastic! Love the shop... the vibe of it, the layout, the offerings... everything! The lovely girl, Dillon/Dylan (sp?), at the register was very helpful, friendly, and all around awesome. Great sunny day playlist playing in the background, too. So many great cards and treats for a stationery/pen fanatic; the only downside for me would be that they didn't offer old school calligraphy broad edge pens/nibs (but they do have a great ink selection) that I need. Also, I love boxed stationery notes and they didn't have a large selection of those either. However, the selection of individual cards (many printed on-site!) was very nice and fairly priced. Even though they don't carry everything I need/want, it's still a wonderful place to browse and buy... and I can't wait to attend the Calligrafair this year, it sounds amazing!!

I'm convinced this is the best place on earth. Not only do they have the most unique and beautiful inventory, but their service is exceptional. Something as simple as shopping for new pens was made into a memorable experience thanks to them!

This place is SO CUTE! Oh my goodness... I stumbled upon this little store while I was in the area. The designers are so inviting and you can tell they really put thought into every touch of detail in the store. It's clean and well put together and offers so much variety. I want to get all my future invitations done here! One little note: for now, it's only open on Fridays I think. I don't know when that will change but make sure to note that it's open on Friday!

I was lucky enough to find Smitten on Paper through Dororthy Goldsmith Printing early on in the wedding planning process. I'm an interior designer and an extremely visual, detail-oriented person, so I knew I wanted to create a custom wedding suite that felt beautiful, personal and unique. Working with Smitten on Paper, a bespoke-lover's dream, was incredible and we were able to collaborate on the most picture-perfect wedding suite that I still dream about and can't wait to get framed. I worked directly and closely with Chelsea, a star member of their team whose sweetness, professionalism and talent I continue to rave about. We also worked with Smitten on Paper on our day-of wedding paper needs and I was absolutely blown away by the result. A million times thank you to Smitten on Paper, we love you! xx

Cannot say enough good things about Smitten on Paper. My daughter used them for all her wedding stationery needs. From our first visit with initial designer,Teresa, we knew we were in good hands. My daughter had an idea of what she wanted and Teresa pulled a design that was perfect. We put our basic suite together at the store but the rest of the pieces were all done via email with designer Chelsea who was AWESOME! She had some great ideas for enhancing my daughter's suite and extra pieces. She responded to all emails immediately and was an absolute joy to work with. Her design sense was spot-on. I highly recommend SOP and would use them again in a heartbeat!

This place is just gorgeous and inspires creativity. I learned about this place through a friend who told me about CalligraFair, a calligraphy fair, which was taking place there early May.

We don't even know where to start! So very grateful that our planner suggested Smitten On Paper for our Invitations, Programs, Signage, Gift tags, Escort Cards, Table Numbers, and Parking Cards! Chelsea was absolutely wonderful and so professional, creative, and communicative! Our paper goods were simply stunning and entirely coordinated in the unique style only Smitten On Paper could create. When I picked up our order, I cried from the beauty of what they put together for us. We love you guys and will certainly hire you again and again for all of our stationery and paper goods' needs!

Wow! Where do I begin. Amy from smitten on paper has been amazing to work with. She responded to all my e-mails so prompt. She answered all my questions and designed my envelopes exactly the way I wanted. The customer service here is remarkable, and any stressed out bride can really appreciate that. Here is what really shocked me, something went wrong in the shipping process that wasn't even the company's fault, and instead of investigating what went wrong and wasting any time(I needed to get my invites out asap) she reprinted and mailed out new invites within 24 hours. A company that is willing to bend over backwards for such a small order is mind blowing.Thank you so much Amy!! Did I mention that my envelopes look absolutely adorable!

Wowww. Like a kid in a candy shop, I just wanted to buy everything in this store. This cute, quaint cards & stationery shop is a must-go for anyone like myself that loves office supplies, stationary and paper goods (I'm a collector, or more of a hoarder, of pens, arts & crafts, and paper supplies). I came in with my fiancé to get quotes about customized wedding invitations and I was just in awe of all the creative samples they had on display. There was not one design that I did not like. I went to another customized card shop before and after walking into Smitten On Paper, and those shops are in no comparison to this place. Unlike Smitten On Paper, the other shops only had a couple, IF ANY, samples that I sort of liked, but it just didn't fit my taste. The style and design at Smitten On Paper is exactly what I was looking for: rustic, vintage, romantic, tasteful, clean.. not that they wouldn't be able to create a customized card in a different style that you like. As for prices, the quotes I received from the few stores I went to were about the same. Smitten on Paper might be just slightly higher than average but the quality of their work is superior to the rest. To say the least, I'm sold. I'm definitely getting getting my wedding invitations made here.

Love at first cardstock! Smitten on Paper is THE place to go for all things stationary. There are a variety of notebooks, office accessories, gifts and pens/pencils that you will surely not leave empty handed! They have a HUGE retail space where you can buy all sorts of cute goodies. The huge windows bring in natural lighting which makes the space feel so surreal and serene! The decorations are gorgeous-I wish I could decorate my apartment like their store! There is another HUGE space where the designers work on making custom invitations. I happened to be in the area and wanted to stop by to check out the place. I follow them on Instagram and their photos are so beautiful that I needed to check this place out in person. They are closed weekends but luckily one of their designers was there and saw me peeking through the windows. She let me in and let me shop for a few things which was nice given their limited hours! I ended up leaving with 2 sets of foil journals with lined pages and a floral printed notepad which will make perfect accessories for my desk at home. The designer even gave me a few freebie cards which was a nice gesture! Their retail items aren't too expensive and make lovely gifts. If you're planning a party and want invitations, look no further-Smitten has it all! I will definitely be back to stock up on notepads and the like. I just wish their hours were more extensive since I work on the weekdays during the times they are open. However, if you happen to be strolling the streets of Monrovia on Tuesday-Friday from 11am-4pm, do yourself a favor and swing on by the shop! I've truly been smitten by this place!

What a sweet little shop of gifts & paper goods! I visited Smitten on Paper after hearing they were hosting a pop up shop of local designers this weekend, including a perfume brand I'm a fan of, so I decided to swing by. I've never ventured to Monrovia either, so it was interesting to see such a Mayberry-esque town with restored historic brick buildings housing assorted shops and dining options- looks like a nice place to raise a family. Smitten on Paper is a spacious, loftlike shop that carries stationery items for special occasions- wedding invitations, placecards, gift tags, calligrapher services, birthday cards, etc. as well as clever gift items- frameable prints with song lyrics from Lana Del Rey ("Heaven is a place on earth with you"), Rifle paper journals, cheeky travel coffee mugs... The ideal place to stop by if you're planning your wedding or need an impromptu birthday gift & card. They seem to carry both high-quality local designers as well as well-known brands for paper and bridal goods.They also have a popular Instagram account to stay updated on new stock and pop ups, @smittenonpaper.
