On paper, we craft beautiful books for life’s big days. At our heart, we help lifelong partners tell their story. We look to the past, present and future by combining classic designs with timeless printing and book-binding techniques. We help you fill the pages with meaning, honesty, and uniqueness by providing vow-writing tips, resources, and services. They’re beautifully made because the promises two people make to love each other are beautiful. They’re steeped in meaning because they symbolize a true expression of your union. We’re not interested in glorifying love; we’re here to celebrate it in all its gloriously imperfect beauty.
How do you approach weddings?
Live Your Story. Speak Your Love.
The Art of Etiquette creates vow books and keepsakes for life’s big days. We believe every love story is unique. We celebrate yours by empowering you to write your vows — on your own terms, in your own words — in beautifully-bound mini books and with the help of our vow-writing services. To us, there’s nothing more important than feeling truly seen in your wedding vows. The words and promises you and your partner will live by should be a reflection of all that makes your union beautiful. As a certified LGBTQ+ inclusive vendor, we are intentional about crafting products and services that will help rewrite the narrative of our industry into one that embraces all identities and gender spectrums.
We believe language and messaging matter, so we turn ours into action by creating welcoming spaces. Each blank page in our books is an invitation for you to be your own storyteller. There are lines on the page, but no rules. There are thoughtfully-curated quotes as inspiration, but the meaning and how you choose to define it are entirely up to you.
In every set of vow books, you’ll find a vow-writing booklet full of prompts, tips and questions designed to help get the words flowing. We also include practice sheets so you can feel things out on paper before writing them in your book. Embrace the journey and remember there’s no right or wrong way to write your own vows. Love is love and we’re here to celebrate yours one page at a time.What are some traits of your ideal clients?
Describe your ideal clients and how they align with Catalyst's values.
Our couples have a deep desire to be able to express their individuality. They strive for meaning and honesty over perfection. They appreciate the exceptional quality that we put into every book because they're meant to capture the promise of their whole life together ahead of them. And lastly, AofE couples value the importance of creating a legacy — preserving memories and commitments to each other and to inspire future generations to come.
What are three of your favorite things?
The smell of a bookstore (I can't help taking a big deep breathe when I walk in), all things Disney (my bank account is never safe when we visit), and travel (love any opportunity to explore new places for inspiration and to be reminded we aren't so different after all!).
What Past Clients Have To Say:
"The Art of Etiquette vow books were gorgeous, durable, and the right choice for our day! My wife and I decided to write our own vows and even though we both went on the longer side of the recommended 3-4 minutes, we had more than enough room in our books for them. The book was easy to carry and hold in one hand while I was reading from it during our ceremony. I also loved that it came with a place for an anniversary note; she and I made time the day before to right our letters to each other and seal them. I can’t wait to read them next September! These vow books were packaged beautifully and are very gorgeous in person, and I like that you can order his and hers or a combination (we got hers and hers). They’re a great keepsake and I’m so glad we have them to remember our wedding day."

My passion has always been tied to design and paper. As a soon-to-be bride, I came up with an inspired solution to capture our words in an elegant, meaningful way: a pair of mini bound books, in the style of our wedding, to hold our vows. Those vow books have since grown into a line of products that help couples convey their story. They’re made to celebrate your love throughout each milestone, anniversary, and everyday moment that follows.
