I’m Alissa!

I am a born and raised Angeleno. While the traffic in Los Angeles leaves much to be desired, being close to the beach, the desert and the mountains brings so much inspiration into my artwork, I couldn’t imagine living anywhere else.

I have been an artist since I can remember, drawing anytime I had paper and pen in front of me, and drawing intricate doodles around the edges of my math assignments as a teenager.

I love reading, ballet, horses, my daughter and my Japanese Chin pups. My husband is my biggest supporter and the most incredible spell checker.

I feel lucky to use my artwork to create designs that are so meaningful to the couples I work with.

Frequently Asked Questions

Wedding invitations are sent in advance to invite your guests and set the tone for your wedding. Day-of wedding stationery includes items used on the actual wedding day, like menus, place cards, seating charts, and programs, which enhance your wedding décor and guide your guests throughout the event.
I recommend ordering your wedding invitations 6–8 months before your wedding to allow time for design, printing, and mailing. For day-of stationery, it’s best to finalize your order about 2–3 months before the wedding to ensure everything is perfectly tailored to your event’s details.
