Diana Egidi, a Pennsylvania native serving local clients in the heart of Lancaster County and nationwide, is the owner and artist behind all designs at Letters to Rose. Having attended Kutztown University for Art Education, Diana is trained in creative formalities and has the background, passion and personality you'll need on your side when it comes to the most important day of your life. Her work has been seen in BRIDES, Magnolia Rouge, Style me Pretty, West Chester New York magazine, Wedding Chicks, and numerous blogs around the web. She has designed an exclusive invitation suite for Lancaster County's premier wedding venue, Cork Factory Hotel, and works with their wedding team to bring their clients' stationery visions to life.
Michael Egidi, Connecticut native and lover of baseball, is Diana's husband and Production Manager at Letters to Rose. The majority of the day, you'll find Mike working with his own clients at Allstate as a licensed insurance professional - but by night, he manages production on all of our wonderful clients' projects (and runs to get stamps, and cooks dinner, and is the best daddy to their daughter, Gianna... the list goes on)!
Once in awhile, you'll get to speak with Mike for specific project inquiries, or meet him at your consultation - he loves being as hands-on as possible and getting to know all of his couples first-hand!
When she isn't busy chasing the dogs, throwing her food around her playroom, or writing on the walls, Gianna loves spending time with mommy while she works during the day. Gianna loves to take items that mommy just put away and hiding them around the room, and even loves trying to feed the dogs scraps of paper and wax seals (though they're never interested). She is such a huge help and hard worker! You may get a glance of Gianna at consultations - or, at least catch some of her toys in the background of Zoom meetings!
Who is Rose, anyway? Rose Mary Bianco, Diana's late grandmother, is the inspiration behind the brand. Having strong European roots, Rose was a well put-together woman who appreciated quality over quantity. She made every holiday joyful with her Italian cooking, kindness and excitement for what is established today as Letters to Rose.
In her final weeks, Diana and Rose spent much time sending notes of encouragement to each other via email; a computer was new to Rose and she was determined to learn how to use it. Diana has kept every letter to Rose and references them when she needs inspiration, advice, or just to relive the magical times they shared.
