Our Favorite finds…
The Product: Aayan Creations
Love is in the air, and with Valentine’s Day around the corner, you never know what special surprise awaits. Needless to say, the holiday season is often a time when couples are inspired to commit their love to each other and get engaged…leaving the next few months of spring to be filled with exciting and nerve racking wedding plans. So much of having a wonderful planning experience depends on who you work with to plan your dream wedding. Which is why when we found Aayan Creations, we felt we had to tell everyone about them!
Aayan Creations offers contemporary and sophisticated stationary- from eye-catching wedding invitations to
announcements, Thank you cards and so much more. Their use of paper and design are fresh and innovative, while still capturing that elegant Indian style. We had a chance to sample a few wedding cards and not only are they stunning with vibrant colors and architectural elements that put them in a different class than the average card, the quality is solid due to the use of heavy weight paper and card stock, pristine printing and fine materials that provide a unique and tasteful touch. However, it is not just the quality and taste level of their products that puts Aayan Creations on our favorite finds, it’s also the personal service they provide in this increasingly impersonal world.
I want to reach clients who value service along with products. Our personal connection with the client is what allows us to meet their needs and provide exactly what they envision,
says owner of Aayan Creations, Shruti Sharma. Each client receives personal attention when selecting the perfect card for their event or occasion. The process begins with a consultation, either over the phone or in person. The client is then allowed to browse through samples or even on-line catalogs to find the style and colors they want. This, however, is just the first step- once the client decides what they like, the product can be further personalized to fit their specific taste. From the selection to the proof and final outcome, Aayan Creations is with you through the entire process.
So how much do they cost, you ask? The products are divided into two categories: ‘the party collection’, which starts at a baseline price range of $2-$4.00 and the ‘high end’ which ranges from $4.50 on upwards. If you’ve been shopping around, you’ll know that you cannot find anything for this quality and with this service for anything less here in the U.S.
Some people might argue that they could order their invitations from India, but I say, you will not find a design or product that meets the modern multi-cutural style of Aayan Creations. While their clients are largely young South Asian American brides, many of the soon-to-be-wed couples that pick Aayan Creations for their wedding invitations are multicultural- in that only one partner is South Asian. Aayan’s ability to cater to each couple individually instead of ordering a ‘standard’ design enables them to create a card or invitation that truly represents a couple’s style and cultural backgrounds. Aayan Creations fills the need in quality, taste and service that fits our South Asian American standards- and that is priceless.
