Dear Deborah (and Kaitlyn), Well, it all started with you, and the idea of using the camel on the invitations....a theme of the Middle East emerged, and the rest was history. Ancient tribe table cards, peacock feathers, albino peacocks as a cake topper, and a belly dancer rounded out what turned out to be the most beautiful and fun wedding we could imagine. I wish you could have seen the groomsmen and bridesmaids with the dancer.,...what a hoot. The church service was a blend of east and west traditions. Thank you for your part in making this such a memorable , happy time for Christen, Aaron and our families. Your attention to detail, patience and creativity were a constant reassurance we had a fun and magical event evolving for our daughter's special day. See you when it is time for our next wedding or baby announcement :-). ******! Warmly, Vicki and Tom Decker

Dave and I could not be happier with our experience with Deborah, Ken, Kaitlyn and all that Maine-ly New Hampshire has to offer!! They were fantastic - from our first introductions through seeing Deborah put her finishing touches on our venue, favors, programs, table & place cards. I knew they were always a phone call away for any last minute emergency, and treated us like we were family. We will stop in just to say hello next time we are in Portsmouth. Please check out Maine-ly New Hampshire for your wedding needs, you will not be disappointed!

Deborah truly saved our wedding! She knew just what to do with our favors and escort cards, and all of our guest couldn't stop talking about how wonderful everything looked! I would highly recommend Maine-ly New Hampshire to any bride. Deborah was incredibly flexible, and even made extra signs for us when I asked the day before our wedding. Working with Maine-ly New Hampshire will be the smartest thing you do!

Words cannot describe how amazing Deborah and Kaitlyn are! With just 2 1/2 weeks left until my wedding, we ran into a tiny problem with a different vendor. Deborah not only saved our wedding, but also totally got our vision in such a short amount of time. Prior to our switching over to her for escort cards, table designs, and programs, we'd done my bridal shower favor (chocolate rocks) which were adorable, and were working with her on Welcome Totes and goodies for our guests at all of our hotels. Deborah is spot on when it comes to emailing and getting back to you. She realized what we wanted for a vision, and went above and beyond with helping create our dream wedding! I highly recommend Maine-ly New Hampshire not only to any bride, but any person that wants to plan a party! Deborah, Ken, & Kaitlyn are incredibly helpful, and willing to make anything happen! You will not be disappointed if you go with Maine-ly New Hampshire!

Deborah did an absolutely amazing job with my wedding! She was my favorite vendor to work with! Her attention to detail was incredible. I would highly recommend Maine-ly New Hampshire to any bride on the sea coast. From the wedding favors to escort cards, Deborah's work was perfect! She even took care of the reception site before the guest arrived to ensure it looked just how I wanted. Deborah will go above and beyond your expectations.

Deborah was great from start to finish. She helped us with so many areas of our wedding planning. We used Maine-ly NH for invitations, menus, ceremony programs, party favors, gift box (photo cube), table pictures, escort cards, candy bar and cake topper (and probably more!).We got many compliments on all areas that Deborah helped us with. The invitations came out amazing (William Arthur). The candy bar was gone basically right after it was set up – thankfully Deborah had filled a box for us while she set up! The ceremony programs, menus, and escort cards all looked very classy and fit perfectly with our wedding theme. The party favors (custom shot glasses) came out very nice and Deborah picked a great font. The gift box was a neat touch and she even included a picture of us on the top! And of course - our cake topper was awesome :-). Overall - Maine-ly NH exceeded our expectations and really made our wedding come together. Thanks Deborah (and Ken & Kaitlyn)!

As the maid-of-honor I was tasked with putting together the welcome amenities for my sister's wedding guests. Initially I was planning on completing the task myself, and had already collected some "goodies" when I went into the Maine-ly New Hampshire store looking for some New Hampshire themed products. At this point, I was already starting to have anxiety about finding the time to put all of these gifts together, and finding a way to transport them to the wedding on time. Not only was I relieved to find such beautiful NH products in their store, but I was even more amazed to hear that they could do the entire project for me, including delivery. After meeting with the shop owner Deborah and receiving a quote from her, and doing a few quick calculations, I realized that not only would it cost about the same as if I tackled the endeavor myself, but after seeing their samples, it would look a million times better! Once we were two weeks out from the wedding things started to get very busy and hectic with last minute details surrounding the wedding - that was when I realized how truly appreciative I was that I'd made the decision months ago to have Maine-ly New Hampshire take care of the welcome amenities. It was one less thing to worry about, and I knew they would be absolutely perfect. I can't even begin to count how many compliments we received about them throughout the wedding weekend. I would highly recommend using the team at Maine-ly New Hampshire - their work is beautiful, and they are wonderful to work with!

Deborah did our escort cards and table numbers for our wedding. She was fantastic with emails and even better in person. She was willing and able to create anything we wanted. I had last minute table changes on the day of the wedding, she said no problem and changed a bunch of my cards around. The escort cards and table numbers were even better than I expected, definitely a keepsake to have. I would definitely recommend Maine-ly New Hampshire for any of your wedding or party needs. Also check out the store, it has a lot of unique gifts.

For our wedding we worked with Deborah for our table names and place cards. We couldn't be happier with the finished product she designed for our wedding. We wanted a NY themed wedding. We came to her with ideas and she made our ideas into beautiful/elegant pieces for the tables. Deborah is very knowledgeable and helpful when it comes to designing pieces for your wedding. She understands what will and will not contribute to the overall look/feel of a wedding. When we came to her with our ideas and what we ultimately wanted our wedding to look like she was able to explain to us her vision for the design and why it would complement the overall vision we had for our wedding. She ensured that the designs she had worked with the tables/ball room and met the level of sophistication we were looking to have at our wedding.

The moment we walked through the doors of Maine-ly New Hampshire we were greeted with friendly smiles from both Deborah and Ken. Deborah spent a great deal of time getting to know us in order to capture our “vision” for our wedding day. We think she got it before we did! Deborah has a keen eye for color coordinating and is extremely detailed. She guided us through the process and never let our thoughts and ideas out of her sight. Her communication was excellent and she responded right away with just the right answers to our questions. Our guests were highly impressed by the attention to detail. Deborah worked with our color palette, which came from a variety of sources and made it look 100% cohesive and uniform, a huge success! Our table cards and labels on the whoopie pies drew from the colors of our flower arrangements and menu cards. Each table was labeled with the name of a town that has significance to us which added a personal touch and the whoopie pies with our monogram were a hit! Deborah even personally delivered the items for our tables and made sure each table was set just perfectly. We more than highly recommend the services of Maine-ly New Hampshire, Deborah and Ken helped to make our day just that more special!

As every other bride has said - Deborah is truely fabulous!! Her and Ken were so helpful and reassuring during the process they soothed even the most uptight of brides! She covered every detail and would email me at all hours suggesting wonderful new little ideas or changes to make our day even more unique. Her smiling face helped me through the craze of the last few months and Deborah's ability to be flexible, accomodating and thoughtful truely went beyond my highest expectations. Deborah particularly impressed me with her ability to work with my other vendors and advocate for what she knew I wanted. The customer service at Maine-ly New Hampshire is beyond what any 5 star planner could offer- she is worth every cent!!!

I can't stay enough good things about Maine-ly NH. From the moment I contacted Deborah, she was prompt in responding which (for a stressed our bride) is a huge plus. I was unsure of some details which she, without hesitation, was able to steer me in the right direction on. We had our favors, place cards and Mrs Mr saches done by Maine-ly NH and the value for the cost was beyond our expectations. Go with Maine-ly NH for any detail of your wedding, you won't be disappointed!

Deborah and her husband run a wonderful and efficient business that caters to the need of the most obsessive and time-crunched bride!!! They created a unique and yummy gift bag for me for my guests that stayed over at the Inn that our wedding was held at. My guests raved about the chocolate candy starfish and chocolate rocks!! They were beautifuly displayed as well, and every single one of them held up to the transportation from my car to the bags to the rooms....etc.They were even able to accomidate a very last minute request and have all 35 of my orders done for me 4 days earlier then planned!! Great options for the bride that wants something unique and special for her quests!

The creativity that Deborah provides is personalized, professional, creative and timely. We were so pleased by the fished products we kept one of everthing ourselves as part of our wedding day memories. The process from start to finish is so seamless.When I went to the reception area in Wentworth by the Sea I immediately saw Deborah planning the placements. She asked me if there were any changes and I let her know we had two new guests and 2 guests that would not be attending. She actuaully drove back to her business site and made two new plavement cards with the new guests names. We can't say enough about Maine-ly New Hampshire and highly recomend them. The experience was "Picture Perfect".Kit and GT Goros

What a truly amazing experience I had working with Deborah at Maine-ly New Hampshire. Deborah had followed up with me a few weeks before my wedding at The Exeter Inn on February 5, 2011 and I realized I hadn't even thought about escort cards, menus or table names. She assured me that it wasn't too late to create something magical. I met with her and she had shown me samples of her work. Everything was so elegant and classy - just what I was looking for. Deborah had created escort cards, menus and table names for me that had matched my invitations. The attention to detail and elegance really came thru. Deborah had delivered them to the function room and made sure everything looked perfect. When I walked into the function room and saw the end result of what she created, I was so happy that everything looked amazing. She is so great to work with and has such an eye for capturing what you are looking for. Thank you so much Deborah!!

Deborah and her staff were absolutely amazing at getting my task of amenity bags done and done beautifully. I was handed this task a week before my friends wedding and was under pressure to get them done and delivered to the hotels...yes more than one. I made the trip to her store skeptical that I would find what I needed in my price range. Well, not only did I find what I needed, but I found what the bride wanted and loved...all within price range! Now that's a tough task in the wedding industry!!! Deborah was a pleasure to work with and got a dozen bags completed, delivered, and handed out to guests in under 5 days!!! Compliments were flowing to the bride about the bag and its contents. I couldn't have done a better job myself...and I'm crafty. I also never could have done them myself in that price range with the unique items that you will find at Maine-ly New Hampshire! Use her business and your guests and your wallet are sure to be pleased!!Oh, and she was not fazed by my two toddlers roaming around her store while I chose the items...Now that matters to a mother!!

It was such a pleasure working with Deborah! Being out of town, planning for my daughter, there were many emails and each one was received and responded to in a timely and kind manner. She is an expert in all she does and puts in more hours than she bills for because she truly cares that the result is perfect to your vision. She is also extremely creative and full of ideas if you have no idea what you want. Most importantly, no matter what your budget, you will come away with an expertly and beautifully designed product. Thank you Deborah!
