About Stephanie McKenna:

I’m passionate about helping committed couples curate a visual language that perfectly represents their unique love, so that they can share it loudly and proudly with their community. I believe that no two couples are alike, and that event stationery should reflect that individuality!

With a background in Graphic Design and branding, I thrive in the challenge to create stationery that is not only beautiful, but heartfelt. Something that perfectly represents what your love is all about, and the ritual of your union.

About The Type A Creative Podcast:

The Type A Creative is for those of us who feel like walking juxtapositions. You know who you are. You can balance spreadsheets just as easily as you can design a logo. Sometimes it’s a little disorienting because you’re a left-brain / right-brain blend that doesn’t always fit into the labels of “artist” or “numbers person.”

On the show we bring in fellow bosses, painters, creative directors, film makers, entrepreneurs, and writers — together we’re having conversations about what it is to be both Type A and Creative.
