Thanks so much Grace, for the invitation and the opportunity to share my little corner of the world with your readers, and in such creative company!
For those who may not know me, I’m Mackenzie Sala, owner, designer, secretary, janitor, and head of customer service over at Kenzie Kate Invitations, a small luxury wedding invitation studio. I also happen to be publisher of a little blog called Something Old, Something New (it’s all about weddings).
Our company mascot is our Italian Greyhound Shorty (or Short-Fry, or Short-Stack, or His Shortness if we’re feeling formal). He works hard as our official Paper Shredder (don’t worry, he’s not allowed to chew on the invitations).
Last year Kenzie Kate moved from Park Slope, Brooklyn to Providence, Rhode Island where we are now enjoying making our new home, learning our new city, and growing our business. So far we love it here, even though we miss all our friends back in the Slope!
Since I blog about wedding stuff pretty much every day over at Something Old, Something New, I’m excited to talk more about my inspirations as a designer and my experience as an independent business owner, (along with a few of my all-time favorite wedding links). I hope you’ll check back in!

Welcome to Providence!!! If you need any advice on places to hang, shoot me an email.
I adore your work! It’s fun, but elegant at the same time. I really admire your workspace for being so cute and organized…what do you keep in alllll those little black boxes?
I can’t wait to read your posts. I am so glad you are guest blogger.
Where did you get that fabulous ribbon holder?
Hi Mackenzie! I followed you over here per your suggestion on Something Old, Something New :) Your puppy is so cute! The mascot of our wedding is our cat Isabelle, who is our resident paper shredder as well! Still loving my samples, and I love your work in general! Your aesthetic and mine jive rather well. Can’t wait to see the rest of your entries!

How nice to see you here! I love your blog and your invites…and your Shorty! Can’t wait to hear about what inspires you.
Welcome! I adore your blog and your work and was very excited to see kenziekate collaborate with designsponge.
OMG – my favorite wedding blogger on my favorite design blog – I may just self-destruct!
Love the new studio shots (all that colorful ribbon!) good luck in your new space! BKLYN misses you!
Where can I buy that ribbon dispenser it is adorable!
Thanks everyone for the comments! I’m so happy to be here!
Elena- we keep a few samples of every wedding invitation we’ve ever created, so those boxes are filled to the brim with all different color versions of all 21 of our invitations styles.
Janaan, and Mrs. Smith – the ribbon holder was designed and constructed for me by my dad to help with the madness that used to be my ribbon situation. Necessity is the mother of invention! It’s my absolute favorite organizational tool, plus I love the way it looks!
welcome to New England! I lived in Park Slope for about 8 years before I moved back home to Massachusetts it seems like everyone is living there these days. I love your organized studio, mine is not that organized!
What a beautiful studio! I just love your blog–these posts are a bonus!
I love your blog AND the ribbon holder! Where ever did you find it? I am a ‘scrapper’ and fight with my ribbon on a daily basis. Please help :)
