From My Bellissima… Hmm… something about “us.”

It’s not about us, is it?

My Bellissima is really about you. More than that, our work is about your dreams. Yet, we do have a tiny little story to tell, a peek at who we are. Two things you can already guess: It’s our passion, and it’s about design.

My Bellissima started in 2004, and as the company has grown and styles have evolved, we continue to be ahead of ever changing trends with today’s modern bride.

We create moments that reflect the character of those who attend them. Our goal is to host beautiful and distinctive events and to have our clients feel worry free throughout the planning process.

There is much that goes into planning an event, but once you strip away the glitz and glamour, it’s about capturing client’s individual styles that defines them as a couple. We choose our clients just as carefully as they choose us.

Oh, Laura Damiano Designs™.  We adore you.  Your drop dead gorgeous (and seriously unique) paper products are what invitation dreams are made of…  and the amazing thought and detail that is poured into each and every piece?  Downright fabulous.  Yep, with beautiful Save-the-Dates, dazzling programs, stunning invites and more (!), Laura Damiano Designs™ will set the stage for your big day.  Guaranteed.

From Laura Damiano Designs™… From my earliest recollections, I knew art and design were going to be a part of my life. My coloring books were the neatest and most exciting things I did. My room was ok, other school work pretty good, but coloring and drawing were my passion. They still are! After a Bachelors of Fine Art degree at Manhattanville College in Purchase, New York and a masters in Graphic Design from The College of New Rochelle in New Rochelle, New York, I found myself working as a true graphic designer. After doing it for about twelve years, I realize I spend my day with the things I love – color, drawing and design. When I began to plan my own wedding about three years ago I researched samples of wedding stationery that were in today’s market. Some were very good, others so-so. That’s when I said to myself: “I can totally do this and make them a lot better!” I wanted to offer what I wasn’t getting – the opportunity for the bride and groom to design their own, unique, personal invitations and wedding extras – completely customized! I did a few couples’ invitations and they were immensely pleased. Each one added something unique to make their design as special as their day.

My client list is constantly growing; my goal to have the customer be part of the process and get exactly what they want is completely successful. Every design is original, never duplicated and each piece is done by hand. My designs have won four awards already – for being a top rated invitation company to being bride’s choice of the year. I look forward to helping you make your day “uniquely created and exclusively yours!”

There you have it, SMPers.  Three fabulous vendors and a day chock-full of inspiration.  Welcome to the family, Violet and VerdeMy Bellissima and Laura Damiano Designs™!  We are so happy to have you! xoxo
