LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this place! – I initially visited the Buttercup because a friend of mine recommended them for wedding menu cards and programs. As soon as my mother and I entered the shop, we were warmly greeted and the staff made us to feel extremely welcomed. The ladies upstairs in the stationery department were extremely helpful and willing to answer my multitude of questions! I ordered menu cards for my wedding, and I can not express how great they turned out! My guests are going to be so impressed! I also ordered weddin... read more

Weird/Stale Vibe – Recently I visited The Buttercup to get an idea of whether or not I would prefer them for creating my wedding invitations. As I entered the store, two employees behind the counter were having a conversation. Though one of them looked up at me, neither said hello, and they continued their discussion. I walked right past them upstairs on my own; it was honestly a chilly feeling! Still, I wanted to give them the benefit of the doubt--maybe they were unhappy with something that had happened in the store, or I'... read more

Good invitations as well as neat gifts – I really like Buttercup and always buy my invitations from them. I usually buy the paper and print them myself, but if you want them to print for you, it's only around $1 more per invite. I also really like the downstairs and go there frequently for bridal and baby shower gifts. Everything is quite unique and girly cute. The staff is polite and knowledgeable about their products.

First in Charlotte for rude sales people – Shopping for wedding invitations should be a positive experience. That is not what happened when I went to the Buttercup. I went upstairs to their invitation showroom and waited 20 minutes for someone to acknowledge me. There were 5 or 6 older ladies sitting around drinking tea and gossiping. Finally one of them called from the other side of the room, "Did you want something?" I responded, "Yes, wedding invitations." She pointed to the wall. She never got up and they continued to go... read more

Best Custom Invitation/Stationery Design in Charlotte – I had the best experience at the Buttercup. The staff was so helpful and the graphic designers came up with a beautiful custom Save the Date for me. There is so much to choose from and I was excited to know that custom designs are available! I will definitely be shopping there again!

Great paper! – I was referred here from "Paper Twists" because they didn't have what I needed. Both places were great. We found loads of paper on sale and Shannon was very helpful, as was another woman. They were super tolerant of our annoyance with one another and were helpful! I don't know about their printing, as I just got paper.

Not a good experience – I went into the Buttercup to look for invitations, menu cards, programs, etc for my wedding. I sat down for a full 10 minutes before I was greeted, while the workers lounged around. I actually got up and got a binder myself. As I started to look through it, a worker came up and said she was going to need it in a minute. EXCUSE ME! I was the only customer in the store!!!!!!!!!! Finally, someone said hi and asked what I was looking for. I told her. She said "I would really want Vera Wang" and took my bi... read more

Poor customer service – I have ordered invitations from the Buttercup several times. Not anymore! I attempted to order shower invitations recently and had to proof the final product multiple times. In the end, they still weren't right. As a working woman, I don't have time to visit the Buttercup fifty times to make sure everything is centered and the font is consistent. Not to mention grammar! These are not difficult concepts. For the prices you pay and the way you are treated, it is better to take your business elsewhere.

Get Your invitations elsewhere! – While the Buttercup had a fantastic inventory, the quality of work and the level of customer service was well below average in my opinion. I ordered invitations and directional cards from the Buttercup and I could have not been more unhappy with the result and the process. I created the wording for the invites and cards and gave that to them when placing my order. This could not have been easier, but for some reason, it took three separate trips to the store to proof and re-proof the work. T... read more
