Amici Letterpress Bar Mitzvah Invitations
We tend to focus a lot on all the lovely wedding invites we create around here, but truth be told we also print a TON of Bar and Bat Mitzvah invitations (and they’re always a blast!). We can adapt any of our invite designs into a Bar/Bat invite very easily by changing up the wording, adding Hebrew characters, or – as is the case with this Amici (from designer Ian Koenig) customization, by adding a small star of David from our motif library. Loving the simple beauty of this one.

Majorca Letterpress Wedding Invitations
Printed in cardinal and espresso inks, this recent customization is our Majorca design. It features an espresso envelope liner and a cool square reply card and directions card, the perfect complement to the square invitation shape. This couple also opted to go with unique square letterpress thank you notes in our Majorca design that we previously featured here on the blog. We love the way all of the pieces work together to bring a fresh modern touch to an otherwise formal wedding invitation suite.
