About

Hello, I am Darla, the owner of Darla Marie Designs. DMD is a first-class stationery and design studio that focuses on creatively unqiue and aethetically driven pieces.

I started Darla Marie Designs in 2009 after spending over 10 years honing my eye for beautifully flowing graphics and stunning color schemes working in apparel design at Quiksilver and Hurley. While planning my own wedding and creating the stationery for my big day, I fell in love with all things weddings and paper and decided to quit my job in the fashion industry to to be able to devote myself full time to my own stationery business.

I love creating designs to share with family and friends, with stationery suites for momentous occasions such as your wedding to or a special card announcing the arrival of a precious little addition to your family.

I am proud to have been featured on many online publications including Style Me Pretty, Style Unveiled, Grey Likes Weddings, Green Wedding Shoes and many more. Here you can view a sampling of the lovely designs available to you. You can also enjoy the attention to your desires and details as I work to create pieces with you. Many more ideas and looks can be found on my Instagram feed and website.

When I am not designing beautiful stationery pieces, I am spending time at home with my husband and our two handsome boys. It is an honor to be able to do what I love and create and design beautiful work for my lovely clients while at the same time being able to be a mom and stay home with my childrend and watch them grow every day.

I look forward to working with you on your special day!

Darla was AMAZING to work with! She brings your vision to life!

It was such a pleasure working with Darla! The process was super easy, we started by looking through her substantial and diverse portfolio of past work done and discussed tailoring it to our style and and preference! We went through 4 proofs and she even designed us custom crest for us. She really understood, very quickly what we were looking for and was extremely patient with me along the way to get it perfect. She is super responsive and professional and we had a fun time putting together our invitation suite! When I had to move my wedding date (2 weeks after sending out our beautiful invitationS 😭) she went ABOVE AND BEYOND to help make it smooth for us! She sent us a PDF of our new date for e-vites, pretty virtual date change announcement and an invitation suite with our new date for photos which really made me so thankful we worked with Darla! I met with 5 other paper designers when deciding and Darla far exceeded them all based on:
1. She undersold my vision the quickest
2. Her portfolio was the highest quality, unique and beautiful which made it was easy to trust her
3. She offered the best price with the highest quality!

Above and beyond

My fiancé & I recently purchased our wedding invitations from Darla. Her design work is elegant and we cannot be any happier! They are so pretty in pictures but even prettier in person. She was an absolute joy to work with and was also very responsive when I had questions or changes during the design process. She also paid close attention to detail - a quality you cannot go without when choosing your invite vendor. I price shopped for about a month and no one even came close to her prices for letter press 2ply invites. They invites are perfect and she is very kind. Thank you so much, Darla, for the quality work and quality service.
