The Founder

Santina Amendola is a formally trained graphic designer, with a background in greeting cards, consumer goods, and fashion,

While studying abroad in Florence in her junior year of college, Santina became enamored with the ornate beauty of the old world. From the cobblestone streets to the centuries old buildings to the breathtaking art and architecture that surrounded her, Santina’s love for ancient and refined ephemera was born and grew.

Once she returned home and finished her degree, Santina designed her very first wedding invitation. From there, she knew she wanted to pursue this direction with her creativity and bring an old world luxury to the new world we live in, whether it’s incorporating vintage illustrations, sourcing handmade elements like silk ribbon and paper, or printing on her 160 year old letterpress machine (a beast she is still learning to tame).

When not in her studio dreaming up a client’s perfect invitation suite or adding to the wedding collection, Santina can be found enjoying time with her growing family or at the dance studio rehearsing for the annual show.
