The Write Occasion: More than just paper
lthough The Write Occasion has a long history as a fine custom invitation and stationery store, owner Tracey Pernetti is quick to point out that her business is about more than just paper. “We continue to be recognized for great gifts, especially for babies, hostess gifts and teachers’ gifts,” she says. Since purchasing the business five years ago, Tracey has become an integral part of the community. “I still love doing this; I don’t think of it as going to work. I think of it as going to have fun. I’m satisfied when I see our customers come in and take in the shop’s atmosphere and wander throughout the rooms with a smile on their face,” she says of her everexpanding venture. Tracey retained the shop’s fine invitations and stationery collections, but added her own flair, including a website that offers etiquette tips and stationery time-lines for wedding Tracey Pernetti planning. She’s expanded the product lines to include a broader offering of invitations such as letterpress, and collections that allow you to create your own invitation. Also new are gifts, writing instruments, seasonal items, home accents and jewelry. Products are available at a range of price levels. There is an area devoted especially to wedding invitations, where brides and grooms can make their selection in a comfortable setting Tracey, who balances her role as businesswoman and mother, features a popular area where youngsters draw on a pint-sized chalkboard while their parents browse through greeting cards, stationery, candles, frames, leather journals, tote bags and an extraordinary selection of paper plates, napkins and wrapping paper.
