Ghia
Known for their alcohol-free apéritifs and spritzes, and inspired by Mediterranean culture, Ghia believes in the importance of savoring simple pleasures together with loved ones to create meaningful memories. Recently, the brand—founded by Melanie Masarin—celebrated the launch of its products in select Whole Foods stores across Texas with a holiday party, and they used Paperless Pro to plan and manage the festive event.
“Paperless Post helped to bring our event and vision to life,” the Ghia team explains. “With their latest tools and enhanced brand-friendly features, Paperless Pro allowed us to integrate all elements of our branding and guidelines to create a smooth and cohesive Ghia experience from start to finish. From custom event pages to streamlined invitations and RSVP tracking, everything felt easy and effortless—letting us focus on the fun!”
With Paperless Pro, brands like Ghia can customize the look of their invitation design by editing the text, fonts, and colors, adding their logo, or even uploading their own existing design from scratch.
Planning with Paperless Pro also allows you to brand your event page by incorporating Custom Colors using specific hex codes, and adding a logo as the page header. Then, track everything with ease with our advanced Analytics view to visualize your invitation opens and RSVPs for stress-free preparation.
Stissing House
Stissing House—the renowned restaurant owned and operated by chef Clare de Boer—is located in a historic converted inn in New York’s Hudson Valley, and is known for its charming ambiance and delectable (James Beard Award-nominated!) cuisine. For their second annual Holiday Craft Feast, Stissing House used Paperless Pro to send polished, on-brand invitations for the event.
Temporarily converting the main dining room into an indoor craft festival, Stissing House hosted over 1200 guests at the impressive two-day event, including none other than the queen of crafts herself, Martha Stewart. The market-style event featured dozens of talented craftspeople from the Hudson Valley and beyond selling handmade items such as ceramics, textiles, woven baskets, and clothing, as well as local sweets and treats and, of course, a curated selection of refreshments from de Boer and her team.
Katie Pierce, Director of Feasts at Stissing House, explains how they embraced Paperless Pro to plan multiple aspects of the event, from sending personal invitations to a small group of VIPs for a special preview before the festival to then sharing the main event invitation with a link for the general public. “Paperless Pro seamlessly keeps the invitations going out and the joy of receiving RSVPs coming in,” she states. “We could not be the hosts we are without it.”
With large events like the Stissing House Craft Feast, sending invitations via a shareable link is a great option that brands can embrace to open their gathering to the public by posting a link anywhere on the web or social media. With the option to create a memorable Custom URL, guests can also easily refer back to the event page for details. Set a maximum capacity as well to ensure you have sufficient space and supplies for a successful and enjoyable event.
Gohar World
Founded in 2020 by sisters Laila and Nadia Gohar, lifestyle brand Gohar World creates stylish tableware and décor that embrace tradition and craftsmanship, with a modern twist. To celebrate the opening of their SoHo, Manhattan store, Gohar World used Paperless Pro to bring customers and collaborators together for a kickoff party featuring their past and present collections.
“We love hosting celebrations all year long,” the Gohar World team expresses of their frequent pop-up events and parties. “And with Paperless Pro, each invitation feels unique to our universe.”
Paperless Pro allows brands to deliver invitations via email, text, or link. When you choose to send invitations via email, you can also customize the message guests receive in their inboxes to be cohesive with your company’s branding as well as the specific event. Select an Email Style to use a pre-made template in styles ranging from modern and bold to traditional and elegant, or customize everything in the email from the fonts and text size to color palettes. If you’ve included Custom Colors on your event page, you can incorporate them into your branded email as well for a fully cohesive experience.
DÔEN
Fashion brand Dôen creates timeless collections of clothing and accessories that celebrate the strength and complexity of womanhood. Founded in 2016 by sisters Margaret and Katherine Kleveland along with a collective of five LA-based women, Dôen’s collections embrace nostalgic California influences and strive to empower women through unapologetic femininity.
Dôen also prides themselves on the meaningful connection they foster with their community of customers, which is evident in the care they put into their company events, like the annual Planned Parenthood Holiday Fundraiser that they planned using Paperless Pro.
“Design and branding are at the heart of everything we do at Dôen,” they explain. “So when we began planning our Planned Parenthood Holiday Fundraiser, we knew we wanted to work with a partner who shared these values. From the invitation design stage through the night of check-in through the post-event recap, Paperless Post was a dream to work with. The efficiency of having a one-stop destination without compromising on beautiful design makes Paperless Pro our go-to for all business event planning needs!”
With the Paperless Post app, our Guest Check-in feature provides the ability to check guests into an event in real-time, making it easy for companies like Dôen to send a thoughtful follow-up thank you note to everyone who attended.
EV Salon
Founded by Erika Veurink, EV Salon provides a purposeful space for groups of women to meet, mingle, and form meaningful connections. Emphasizing the significance of real-life interactions and relationships, EV Salon carefully selects women to attend invite-only gatherings and provides guests with “matches” to encourage diverse and interesting conversations between people who may not have otherwise met. From new friendships to networking opportunities, EV Salon hopes to introduce like-minded and unique women, and bring connections off of social media and into the real world.
For a recent cocktail party at The Standard Hotel in New York hosted by EV Salon in collaboration with Rent the Runway, Erika Veurink describes the ease of incorporating Paperless Pro into her planning and invitations. “Using Paperless Pro has changed how I think about organizing events. It’s the unlock I never knew I needed as a founder.”
Organizing events is made simple with Paperless Pro’s easy-to-use management features. Gather helpful information—like dietary restrictions or drink preferences—with Guest Questions that allow you to send multiple-choice, checkbox-style, or open-ended questions to guests along with your invitations. Correspond with guests through private or broadcast messages to send along any event updates or reminders for efficient pre-event (and post-event) communications.
Edie Parker
Edie Parker is a modern lifestyle brand known for their stylish acrylic clutches, bold home décor, and psychedelic smoking accessories. To celebrate their newest product launch, they threw an unforgettable New York Fashion Week bash—complete with a cabaret performance by the iconic Countess Luann de Lesseps.
“When it comes to paper, ours is for rolling. When it comes to invitations, we go Paperless,” the Edie Parker team says of using Paperless Pro for planning their Edie’s Green Room event. “Paperless Pro made our invitations look great, and it’s so easy to use. It gave us all we needed from design to RSVPs. Game changing!”
Envy-inspiring parties like these are perfect for building excitement when planning the next event for your brand. Include a Photo Gallery Block or Video Block with your invitations to share memorable moments from past successful events to give a sneak preview of what kind of a night guests can look forward to. Encourage guests to share their own celebratory snapshots from the event on social media as well, and include a suggested hashtag in a Details Block on your event page.
