Mew Paper: As seen in Well Wed Magazine!
Excited to share a little bit of press I received recently…check out the layout featuring Mew Paper in Well Wed New York Magazine.

My First MyKateParkerWedding Photo Shoot
Though I was delighted to be invited, as a member of the MyKateParker Wedding family, my original plan was not to attend the photo shoot held last week at the Bee & Thistle Inn in Old Lyme. I’m so glad I changed my mind! I had never been to an event like this before and [...]
A “Plus-Sized” Rant on Wedding Fashion
Does the wedding industry think they’re doing us a favor by doing editorial coverage on bridal gowns with headlines like “Here are 4 body types and the wonderfully wearable gowns that play up their positives” (thanks for that one, Brides Magazine) or “Small on top, ubercurvy down below? Bring balance with an awesome A-line”.

What’s New at Mew: A Rustic Farm Wedding in the Berkshires
Teri contacted me via Etsy at first with a pretty solid vision of what she wanted her invites to be like. The wedding would be held in a rustic old barn up in the Berkshire Mountains of Massachusetts. It was important for the bride to incorporate birds, wildflowers and a barn. At first it was [...]
What’s new at Mew? Bird Wedding Invitation with Belly Band
I think I’m on a cottage-y, vintage-y, garden-y kick these days and I think this new wedding suite certainly fits the vibe.
Shown here in sage green, ivory and chocolate brown, this two-layer invitation has a coordinating belly band to keep enclosures neatly in place. Birds, scrolling calligraphy and flourishing script give it a glamourous, [...]
What’s New At Mew–Bird and Damask Wedding Invitation Suite
Layers of decadent damask patterns surround a sweet songbird perched on blossoming branches.
As shown, this two-layer invitation is flat printed onto shimmering pearl stock, and layered onto shimmering silver. A bold cobalt ribbon wraps around the back, serving as a strap to keep enclosures neatly in place.
Each handmade invitation set includes a white or ivory [...]
