“As a Bridal Consultant of some thirty years, I think I have read probably every "how to" wedding etiquette reference book… the contemporary, the modern, the traditional, and on and on, but never have I read one so beautifully written.  You have incorporated in this book all that is important… with a wealth of knowledge, from years of experience. You have reminded us of the necessity of writing a letter, correctly wording an invitation, sending a card or a thank you note, and the use of beautiful paper. You have brought the beauty of 'letter writing' into the twenty first century. "Where have all the flowers gone?" page thirty-six, only serves to remind us of how important the written word is. You have given a reference book knowledge elegance and beauty. I shall treasure this book.”

“Marjorie is refreshingly hip and deftly moves between the traditional and what’s in vogue in wedding, stationery etiquette without losing her balance or sense of humor. This short and entertaining book is an educational quick read for those interested in fine stationery and custom wedding invitations. With etiquette and civility often overlooked, in today’s wedding planning, Bridal couples can save themselves much angst and many wrong turns by purchasing Marjorie Maxfield’s “The Write Stuff”.

“Marjorie has a strong classic style with a fun flair all her own and a very big heart. We should all follow her advice, add your own personal touch and experience the delight of a personal note!”

“From my longtime industry experience, the internet and bridal magazines report invitation trends and etiquette which are inaccurate, outdated, or out of touch to what is really relevant to the 21^st century bride. A book that focuses on stationery from an experienced stationery retailer like Marjorie Maxfield has a foundation of experiential knowledge which can never be replaced by a journalist who is writing from research.”

“Everyone needs a guide, and there is no one that fills the role better than Marjorie Maxfield. With Marjorie, everything is appropriate, creative and timely. She establishes the rules of proper etiquette and makes it  fun.”

“When planning your daughter’s wedding, you must find that special someone that you have the utmost confidence and trust. That person for me was Marjorie Maxfield.  Her attention to detail and expertise in etiquette is why she was my go to resource during all of the planning stages. In this day and age, etiquette has become a lost art, but not with Marjorie in charge. No matter what type of wedding or event, she will make sure that every detail is tended to.  I have the utmost confidence in her abilities to make a dream a reality.  Our relationship has evolved from trusted stationer to a lasting friendship.  There was no other choice for me but Marjorie Maxfield.”
