Linen & Pine Designs

Hi! I'm Collette. I'm a designer + wedding stationer focused on unique designs to cater to YOU as a couple. I love using my creative background to create stunning stationery that caters to your individual style. Your invitations are the first glimpse of your big day to your guests, give them all the information they need, and really sets the tone and vibe. When the dinner and drinks are over, your invitations and stationery are something you can keep forever and pass down. From Save the Dates to Table Numbers, Escort Cards to Seating Charts and everything else in between, we like to be a one-stop-shop so everything is cohesive and matches your individual style. 

I've been a Graphic Designer for over 7 years, but it wasn't until I was planning my own wedding on Long Island in 2019 that I really got into the wedding side of it even more. I went above and beyond for every detail of my wedding and I ended up falling in love with creating all of the stationery for it and matching it up with my colors and style. So I wanted to continue doing that and helping other couples with their special day! 

My favorite unexpected wedding moment was when my golden retriever walked me down the aisle unprompted, when no one else could be there for my special day due to the pandemic. We had a private ceremony just us and our dog. He (my dog) really stood up to the plate and made it feel so special. I recently lost him and I'll hold that memory forever in my heart. 

We specialize in unique stationery, themed events and beautiful luxury invitations. You can be as extravagant or laid back as you like and we can help you along the way! We love creating a whole VIBE for your wedding that best represents your style. Out with the old, in with the new and off-beat! 

I've pretty much been an entrepreneur beginning in college where I sold my art to help pay for school. Graphic Design was always my main passion so after college and moving back to Long Island, I started my own business full time. It wasn't until I planned my own wedding and created all my own stationery that I fell in love with the process and picking out all the details down to the ribbon of my invitations matching my bridesmaid dresses. I realized how honored it made me to be a part of weddings and help to celebrate love. 

"I have an idea for something, can you create ________?" Yes! We are open to unique ideas and are always up for a challenge. We believe our diverse skillset is what sets us apart and allows us to do a multitude of things relating to your big day. "I'm not sure what I want for my invitations yet, can you help me?" Of course! We love helping brides curate their colors and theme as it helps us figure out what stationery would best speak to it! "If you post our stationery online, will you block out our personal information" YES. We always, even if you don't ask about it, block out sensitive or personal information such as phone numbers and addresses unless it is an address of an established company. We want to share our work, but we won't post it without being meticulous about it. In addition, we try to wait to post anything of yours until we know that you have already sent the invitations out to your guests so none of them accidentally see it beforehand!

Aside from working, I enjoy gardening and being outdoors, it helps me to feel connected to the world and keeps me centered. I love camping, traveling, and hanging with my dogs and Husband. When I have some free time, I also enjoy going to plays and pop punk shows.
