For Bar/Bat Mitzvah's

Elyse's work is wonderful! Excellent quality, extensive selection, the attention to detail is commendable and quick turnaround—what more could a consumer wish for.  Elyse is beyond helpful (and patient!) with those of us new to the whole Bar/Bat Mitzvah scene and she had answers to all my million questions. I've used her once, and have no intention of looking elsewhere for the rest of my children's celebrations…  Heather

"Lysee played such a crucial role in planning my son's Bar Mitzvah, that I truly would not have survived it without her. I was relatively new in town and knew nothing about planning such an event. Not only did Lysee offer a huge variety of invitations and other products, but her wonderfully creative ideas and incredible knowledge of the entire event planning process made the whole experience really enjoyable. I wouldn't consider planning an event without her."  Meryl

“Elyse did a terrific job helping us prepare invitations for both my daughters' Bat Mitzvahs.  She was always pleasant and easy to work with, had a fine assortment of paper products within our budget, and performed all our work in a timely and top-quality fashion. I will certainly use Lysee's Creations for my next party!!”  Lynn

“For the two most important days of my life, I would not have gone to anyone but Lysee to prepare my sons Bar Mitzvah invitations. The quality of her work is superb, a perfectionist down to the simplest details, she is there from start to finish!  Sue Dufner, a first time client who became a friend!

“Although I came to you looking for a low key, low pressure place to choose invitations for my son's bar mitzvah, I received so much more than just that!  Not only did you provide me with great party planning services, such as computerized guest lists for tracking rsvp's, cross-referencing table #'s, thank you's, etc., but as a novice in the whole bar mitzvah process, you helped me out with great advice and support. I'm looking forward to working with you again next year for my daughter's bat mitzvah!”  Best regards, Judy

“I used Elyse Saber-Goldstein for the invitations to my son's Bar Mitzvah in January 2006.  It was a pleasure to work with her because she was very helpful in selecting invitations while not being at all pushy. I particularly like the fact that she promptly responded to my inquiries by telephone and e-mail, and she met all my time constraints. She knows her business and she does it well. It is also nice to work in a comfortable home environment where she keeps her office. I do not hesitate to recommend her.” Risa Gold

“Lysee's Creations and the services she provides was an invaluable help to us during the planning, coordinating and executing of my daughter's Bat Mitzvah.  From the very beginning to the very end she was there to offer suggestions and reminders of all there was to do.  What is often a stressful and overwhelming task became much more manageable with Lysee's help and expertise.  She not only offered guidance, but also provided us with most helpful tips of saving money and being more creative and economical.  I could not have had such a successful day without her help and support.   Lysee was always there to talk with all during the planning, she lent us her helping hand all the way.  Going through this herself with her own children she could certainly relate.  I not only found a source of guidance and support, but now, am fortunate to have Lysee as a friend who still continues to share her kind words and inspiration through the heart felt email stories she often shares with us.  Overall, I would highly recommend the services that Lysee offers to anyone planning a Bat or Bar Mitzvah.   I am so thankful that we had her by our side and a wonderful day it was!!  Thank you Lysee!!” Carol

“Preparing for my first son's bar mitzvah was often hectic and sometimes stressful. Working with Elyse made the experience fun, easy and worry free!!

The Compliments on the napkins were unbelievable!” Karen Stolzenberg - Waccabuc, NY

“I have used Lysee for my two sons bar mitzvahs these past few years. Working with Lysee has been nothing but easy. Her selection is wonderful and her guidance and opinions are just what a customer wants to hear. We ordered everything from invitations, response cards, and thank you notes to table assignment numbers and decorations. She has a natural ability for easing a customer, especially for those last minute item one forgets. I still have another bat mitzvah in three years and will look forward to placing a call to Lysee's Creations to begin our plans.”  Suzanne Fromm - Suzanne's Sweets, LLC - Katonah, NY

For Business

“I give Lysee's Creations our highest recommendation. It is very rare to find anyone with her attention to detail and dedication to completing each project to perfection. A real pleasure to work with!”  Barry Kay, Vice President - Phoenix Brands, LLC

“Choosing invitations seemed like such an overwhelming task to me with all the choices and variations (especially with a teenage girl involved). You made the process so much easier. You provided a great deal of advice beyond the invitations and were truly a pleasure to work with. Thanks so much for all your help".  Forever grateful, Shelley Strauss

When I ordered from Lysee's Creations, I didn't just get the stationery; I got a complete package. Lysee gives you advice, support and guidance through the entire process-from A to Z. Lysee was there from start to finish. It wouldn't have been the same without her invaluable assistance.  Vida Barbo

For Weddings

“Lysee is amazing! She has brought a creative, organized approach to the work of planning for my daughter's wedding that has brought me peace of mind. She is an angel! Every step of the way-from initial plans, to wonderful ideas, to incredibly quick, efficient, gorgeous works—she has been a wonderfully warm, supportive professional. I have received so many compliments on the invitations she created for the shower, complete with matching recipe cards and direction cards. The calligraphy she did for the invitations could not have been more beautiful. In the final weeks before the wedding, she had me perfectly organized with lists of names alphabetized, double or triple checked for accuracy. She spontaneously came up with ideas to make gift bags special. I don't know what I would have done without her. Truly, she has made an incredible difference for me. I cannot imagine doing another party without her help. All of this,  and with a smile. I love working with Lysee!!”  Terri Pike

“…wanted to thank you again for your wonderful work and on such short notice. It is such a pleasure working with a true “professional”.  Bobbie Baxter

“Lysee is a delight! Her personal attention to each client is not common today. She delivers a perfect product while maintaining a warm and inviting atmosphere in her studio. During a very hectic time in my life, Lysee offered a relaxed retreat in which I was able to plan an unforgettable occasion. She's simply gorgeous!!!” Marla

“Lysee  has an incredible knack of making the decision-making for the special event easy and uncomplicated. She is a one-stop shopping convenience, and her talent and creativity shines throughout all the choices. She made it so pleasant and easy for me and my family, that I would love to have another occasion just so I could use her services again.” From an extremely happy customer, Bonnie Schwartz

“Lysee's Creations is simply the best. Before Lysee, I would spend hours at crowded, impersonal stationery stores waiting for assistance only to be plopped down and handed 10 books which weren't my style. Now, I simply make an appointment with Lysee, show up and she directs me to a few perfect books after listening to me explain my style preference. She then takes care of everything-the addressing of envelopes (calligraphy or computer labels), the stamps, inside address instructions, etc. You name it and she'll do it! She even gives you a printed sheet of your guests so you can keep track of rsvp's and thank you notes. I have recommended her to everyone I know and I'm thrilled to do so!”  Sincerely, Martha Handler
