We are so blessed to be surrounded by not only lovely papers, but more important, by the loveliest people you can possibly imagine. Their words follow, most of which have come in amazing handwritten letters over the years...and none are relatives, we swear.

“The invites have been sent out and we’ve received so many compliments on them. We’re just so thrilled that they have set the tone for what we hope will be a wonderful wedding day and we wanted to say an enormous thanks for all the effort you put into making sure they were just perfect.

You couldn’t have been lovelier to deal with—I found your patience and commitment to excellence so refreshing and so reassuring. I never thought that organizing invitations for a wedding in Australia from New York would be so simple—but the experience was so seamless, it was as if you were right next door! I couldn’t recommend you more highly—and your reputation for excellent customer service is well deserved.”

“The invitations are beautiful! Our CEO loves them, which makes me happy, and I appreciate your help in design and in turning them around so quickly. They are a perfect fit for our brand and for the tone we want to set for the evening. I wish we had more black tie events to work on together!“

Vanessa Rademaker

The first time around:
“Thank you so much for your help with the wedding invitations, menu cards, etc.... It was an extraordinary day for us, in part due to all your efforts. Thanks again, and I look forward to stopping by soon!”

A couple of years later:
“I received the birth announcements yesterday. They look even better than what I imagined. Thank you so much. It was nice to be able to rely on your judgment!!“

Paula Weiner
Minneapolis

”Thank you again...I had complete confidence in your taste and judgement from the very beginning. The invitation was even more beautiful than I imagined and we’re receiving many compliments. I can’t wait to do the next event 20 months from now!”

Wendy Miller and Nick Mark
Minneapolis
“We worked with other invitation shops that made us feel like they were doing us a favor by accepting our business. You worked hard to get everything done and made it fun.”

Michelle Tafoya

“You are the best, and a credit to your industry. Thanks for helping to make our wedding perfect!”

Christine Quinn
Saint Paul, Minnesota
”I could not have gotten through this without the guidance, attention and warmth of your expertise. We received the perfect amount of attention and information, and you worked hard to ensure we could get a discontinued item. You were lovely to work with and became a friend. Thanks so much! I won’t forget you!”

Jennifer Gaillard
Washington, D. C.

“Thank you for keeping me sane during my clearly questionable decision to try to plan a wedding in California while living in Washington, D.C.

Athough your store is almost 1,200 miles away and we never met, it felt like you were right next door. People thought I was nuts choosing an out of town vendor and that I was making things unnecessarily difficult, but they were wrong—there’s nothing a phone and a fax can’t handle!

Your advice on wording, layout, mothers-in-law, and sticky etiquette issues were all, of course, perfect. And you always made me feel like I was your only client and most important client all wrapped up into one.

Thanks again, so much....“

(Note: Jennifer and Cinda finally met face to face, and are now friends.)

“My wife and I started working with Cinda 18 months ago on our wedding invitations. Right away, I was impressed with her professionalism and attention to detail. She provided helpful suggestions throughout the process and, needless to say, our invitations were stunning. She is truly the best!

As a business owner, our companies had gone through a half dozen marketing houses in the past five years.... However, our business experience with Details has been wonderful; they have far surpassed our expectations. Our marketing materials are receiving rave reviews from employees, customers and vendors alike. I would strongly recommend Cinda and Details Ink for all your personal and business stationery needs.“

Nancy and Dave Kaysen
Minneapolis

“You are the BEST! Many thanks for all your help. Your attention to detail and your amazing organization helped us get the job done right. We received many compliments on all of the printed material and ideas.”

Emma Turner
Edina, Minnesota

“I don’t recall exactly how I first found Details, but am sure glad I did. So many of our family functions and professional events have found their ‘voice’ in the store and its creative genius. And the gifts...to die for!”

Sonny Warner

”I won’t go anywhere else except Details, Ink. Outstanding customer service and personal attention!

I truly enjoy working with Details in creating my personal stationery. They’re genuinely enthused about the ‘art’ of stationery and provide me with the ideal medium for my correspondence needs. Personal stationery should be just that: personal. Cinda listens closely to my ideas for what I wish to convey and embraces ‘who’ I am. She always comes up with several dynamite suggestions that accurately reflect ‘me.’ She makes me feel like I’m the only customer in the universe...and I know she’ll do that for you too.”

Jean Christie
St. Louis Park, Minnesota
“Because I am not a person who plans well in advance for gifts, invitations for our parties, nor cards for dear friends, I count on a visit to Details, Ink on the spur of the moment and have never been disappointed! Always with a smile, they help me find just the right gift or the right card. Their paper and gifts are exquisite. Cinda takes the time to chat and laugh with me, which is why she knows my tastes.

Ten year ago, I started coming to Details...ever since, all of our personal invitations have been created by them. I bring in an idea, Cinda says ‘Let me play with it a bit,’ and within a few days the wonderful, one of a kind invitation is ready to preview. Our friends look forward to our annual events just to see what the invitations will look like.”

Ann Wasserman
Minneapolis

“This is a very long overdue thank you for always having the perfect gift for whatever my needs may be. Every time I come flying into your shop with one of my special requests, you always seem to find the perfect gift at the price I want to spend and inevitably, the gift is a huge success.

Truthfully, because of all your help, you are always my first stop when I need something whether it is a small token gift or something larger and 99% of the time I have to go no further in my search. This was the case just last week and once again, you came through with the right gift for my needs.

Again, thank you for all your help, guidance and kindness that you have shown me over the years....”

Bill Bowen
Minneapolis
“It’s fun to shop at Details (my son, Major, even asks when we can stop by). There are really unique items to be found there that cannot be found anywhere else; they seem to know exactly the right fit for the occasion. When I told Cinda that we needed a gift for a favorite and very caring college professor, she walked right over to a personalized leather notepad holder—perfect!

A gift given to our family by a friend has become the centerpiece at our home at Christmas.... If you continually need personalized or letterhead paper as I do, they keep careful records of your past purchases, so reordering is a breeze. Details is also the place to stop if you really need a hug—they really care about you as a person and as a friend, as well as a valued customer.”

Karen and Rick Nemer
Minneapolis

“We met Cinda eight years ago when she fist helped us design and order our wedding invitations. We not only loved the finished product—our invitations—but also the expertise and demeanor that she brought to the task.

We have been loyal customers since. When we need that ‘special something,’ beautiful, special cards or ideas, Details has it. Browsing the store is dangerous. It will lead you to uncontrollable temptation to buy for yourself and also to buy for others. Beauty, quality, tasteful ‘fun’ merchandise is what Details purveys.”

Elizabeth and Christopher Renz
Minneapolis

“We thank you for all of your patience, laughter, insistence, and general help with all our wedding stationery needs. Thanks for being a God-send....”

Sheila Olson

“Thank you so much.... I did enjoy working with you and appreciated your creativeness and attention to detail. I’m sure we’ll work together many times in the future. And don’t forget, when you decide to open that store in Woodbury, you’ve got a partner!”

Susan Blubaum
Minneapolis

“I had never given a large party like this before, and I really needed professional advice. I lucked out by finding Details, Ink; I had such friendly and experienced service, while my preferences were also respected. Thank you so much!”

Sarah and Peter Mertz
Longmont, Colorado

“We just wanted to say thank you for all your help!! You were so wonderful to work with—we always looked forward to coming in and visiting with you. You guided us through the many decisions that had to be made and everything was just beautiful. We couldn’t have been happier!”

Heather Garcia

“The invitations are absolutely fabulous. We love them! Thank you so much for your help and willingness to meet our tight deadlines. You were a delight to work with.”

Margaret Seddon Mason

“I had a great experience with Details, and I can’t wait until I have a reason to use your services again. Of all the people that I worked with on my wedding, you would be the first I would recommend to brides. Thank you for all your help!”

Jean Howell
Minneapolis

“So many thanks for your splendid work on my note cards. They are perfect and conveyed just the right message—yours is the magic touch.”
