Inspired by a vintage ice cream parlor, we love our Bradford letterpress wedding invitations in shades of Mediterranean, pool, sea mist, British rose and shell for a chic yet playful spring or summer wedding. (Photo credits: wedding invitations + striped bridesmaid dresses + wedding cake.)
This spring-inspired customization of our Tara letterpress wedding invitation design was printed in chartreuse and downy inks. We love the pairing of cool vintage typography with fresh chartreuse as the starring color.
Supremely elegant, these letterpress save the dates show off our Connemara design in splendid style. Letterpress printed in lavender and light lavender inks on our ivory paper, the monochromatic look is super chic and sophisticated.
Soft, elegant and impossibly romantic we love a color palette of light peach, dusty pink, light lavender, cream and celadon to capture the timeless sophistication of our Tennyson letterpress wedding invitations. (Photo credits: wedding invitations + bouquet + wedding cake + dress with book.)
We love this striking 3-color letterpress customization of our Vendage design. Printed in mustard and Mediterranean inks paired with blind deboss, this design also showcases sophisticated calligraphy accents from Bella Figura callligrapher Debi Zeinert. The combination takes a very modern design and makes it incredibly elegant and chic, a twist we can’t help but love.
We’re probably a bit premature in our longing for spring (especially here in Syracuse), but we love a woodsy natural color palette of clover, taupe, hazel, celadon and cream to showcase our Festoon letterpress wedding invitations for a pretty spring wedding.

With the new year here, we wanted to show off a few photos from our recent open studio event, which took place a few weeks ago. We had the most fun introducing the local community to letterpress and showing off our print shop and new offices! We invited the local public, media, clients, vendors, friends, family and anyone with an interest or passion for printing and the arts to come pay us a visit. In return, we had printing demonstrations, tours, giveaways, an excess of sweets and goodies from a local bake shop and loads of letterpress fun. We decorated with DIY paper chain garlands for the Christmas tree and colorful paper bunting strung from the cross beams in our office, all of which were created from gift wrap from our sister company, Smock. Our friend and amazing wedding photographer Alice G. Patterson spent the day with us and captured these snippets from the day and her photos already have us excited for next year!
It’s time to play a bit of catch up on some recent press mentions! We always love working with editors from our favorite magazines, so we wanted to take a moment to thank them for spreading the love.

Today we’re wishing you a very happy new year with a little glamor inspired by our Claddagh letterpress wedding invitation in shades of deep blue, sea mist, sand, antique gold and taupe for a sophisticated and trés chic wedding soirée. We wish you a fabulous holiday weekend – see you in 2011! (Photo credits: wedding invitations + sequined dress + wedding gown + sparklers.)
Born on December 16th and weighing 7lbs 5oz, we’re ecstatic to get to extend a warm welcome to baby Petra Juliette. Our very own Chris (one of our esteemed client coordinators) is a new daddy and we couldn’t be happier for him. Congratulations, Chris and Theodora, on the new addition to your family! She’s absolutely beautiful.
As 2011 nears, we thought we’d pause a moment to recognize 2010 by celebrating our top selling letterpress wedding invitation designs from this past year. From the traditional and sophisticated to the modern to the vintage inspired, these wedding invitations were our clients’ favorites in 2010. A huge thank you to our amazing clients for making this past year the best one yet – we’ve got lots of exciting new things coming for 2011 so stay tuned!
