Here’s our best press inked and ready to print a website rsvp card. We love when we can mix a cotton candy colored pink like this. All of our wedding invitation suites are letterpress printed one card at a time on our antique presses here in Brooklyn.

We’ve been printing a bit of everything this month: wedding invitations and wedding-day stationery, personal note cards, business cards, baby announcements and more.

A favorite ink color this year (for us, and for our wedding clients) has been this pretty grass green. It’s crisp and summery, with just a touch of white mixed in to soften it.

Something else we love is getting to letterpress print a party hat on a wedding response card like this one!

In honor of Bastille Day, we’re sharing this letterpress printed invitation suite for a wedding in the south of France. We wanted a soft, almost fairytale feel to match the setting-a 15th century estate. We used a pale, almost clear ink and a sage ink and paired vintage floral illustrations on the invitation card with a custom drawing of the venue on the save the date and rsvp card. We’re always grateful when couples trust us to make their wedding stationery. We really want to make sure that invitations feel personal as they mail them and give their guests a glimpse of something to look forward to when they receive them.

We’ve been letterpress printing a lot of custom stationery projects in the studio this week. A simple name printed in a pretty color (or black) ink is always so chic! Note cards are one of our favorite things to print as we know that receiving something handwritten in the mail, even just a couple of lines, adds a bit of delight to a day.

We used a summery grass green ink for this set of custom note cards. The strawberry image is a favorite of ours to letterpress print in any color!
