AT THE HEART OF EMILY BAIRD DESIGN IS A LOVE OF STORYTELLING THROUGH ARTISTIC DETAILS.

Every relationship has a unique, incredible story — why strip something as special as your wedding stationery down to the current trendiest thing or include a design element that’s pretty but has no meaning to you? I love to work with couples that want to celebrate how they got here and to share that story as a gift with their loved ones in the ultimate kick-off to their marriage.

Telling stories through art has been something I’ve loved since I was a little kid running around with oversized glasses at the tip of my nose. I ultimately earned my B.F.A. in Art and Graphic Design. Emily Baird Design was founded in 2011, and since diving full time into design as a professional, I’ve found my main love lies in creating wedding stationery, branding projects, and exploring new creative endeavors like venue drawing, watercolor, and collaging. Over the years, my work has been featured in numerous wedding publications in print and online, including Martha Stewart Weddings, Washingtonian Weddings, Style Me Pretty, and The Knot.

When I’m not hustling away at my Old Town Alexandria studio, you’ll likely find me pondering if I was born in the wrong time (anything from the ‘40-’70s is pure magic!), sorting through vintage and natural treasures for my home, or snuggling with my (sometimes wild but mostly adorable) cats Pumpkin, Bijou, and Baby Cat.
