    A true love for paper

    Kat, the owner of Papermint press is incredible. She helped make custom notes for my bridesmaids in the color theme. Helped design our paper suite and took an hour and a half in person to allow my mother and I to explore her store, feel the texture of the papers and discuss what we were looking for. She hand watercolored each of our invitations to make each one unique and special and placed gold foil down.
    Kat is great at communication, she goes above and beyond to proof everything, get feedback, ask questions and provide options if you are having difficulty making decisions. Her calligraphy is STUNNING! Our guests at the wedding were blown away at the ceremony booklets, their menus, the escort card (which were pictures of all our guests in black and white on an acrylic board of their wedding photos), our vow books, our thank you notes were a dream.
    My mom and I are paper snobs and Kat appreciates the fine details and you can tell she loves what she does for each couple.

    Amazing experience

    Honestly, I can’t say enough good things about working with Kat for our invitations. She seriously hit it out of the park with her responsiveness, ideas, and accommodating every request we had so quickly and efficiently. Her turn around time is incredible and the quality is beyond what I could have hoped for. We got so many compliments on our invites and still are receiving compliments as people continue to RSVP. Thanks so much Kat for making the invite process so easy and for creating the most elegant invites ever.

    Paper Mint Press is THE BEST!

    What a pleasure experience to work with! We designed our invitations down to every last detail with the exact colors and style we wanted, and it was BEAUTIFUL. Modern and clean! Thanks Kat!

    Quality of Service (CHECK), Responsiveness (CHECK), Professionalism (CHECK), Value (CHECK), and Flexibility (Absolutely CHECK).

    We were referred from Love Anne Joy and Kat from Paper Mint Press is amazing! From Day 1 she thoroughly went through the process and she is proactive and the communication with her was wonderful!

    1. They made our Save The Dates, and we were absolutely pleased! Simple, yet modern and chic! Beautiful, creative, and high quality.
    2. The Wedding Invitations -Beautiful, creative, and STUNNING. We were so excited, and it was exactly what we wanted, and probably more than we expected (which is absolutely amazing). Wax Seals? YES! Kat has them and it can be customized. We are obsessed.
    3. Day of Accessories – what a DREAM! From the Signage (including “precautionary measures for COVID”), table numbers, menu, and the programs! We were over and beyond and it was totally worth it.

    Overall – Even during a pandemic, Kat was so patient and understanding with us. We genuinely enjoyed Paper Mint Press because she is THE BEST as it was a smooth planning process. Its challenging times for sure, but we would HIGHLY RECOMMEND Paper Mint Press as she will work with you and “flexible” is the key word to an amazing and excellent vendor to make your dreams come true! We would totally hire them again for ANY special occasion event!

    Thank you, Kat for being a part of our DREAM wedding. We are so humbled to have you part of the whole wedding journey (its like the “whole shabang” recipe)! Thank you so much for attending the day! We are so glad that we did not reschedule or cancel our wedding date and keeping the positive motivation! With love and mahalo – Michelle + Christian (10/10/2020)

    Artistic & Unique Wedding Invitations

    I was a fan of Kat and Emil's work long before I was engaged, so when I did get engaged, I already knew who to go to for our wedding invitations. Planning a wedding can be stressful for couples, but with Kat and Emil's easygoing personalities and professionalism, they made this part easy. We had calls to talk about what we had in mind, but pretty much let Kat use her creativity to design it.

    We were having a travel-themed wedding and wanted to have a boarding pass style invitation suite. Kat absolutely NAILED IT with the design! She even hand-drew a map of the Bay Area with recognizable landmarks and also our venue and hotel. Kat even included a scannable QR code on the boarding pass where our guests can use their phone to access our wedding website...how cool is that?! The invitation suite itself is a unique art piece, so I had it framed and is hanging on our wall!

    I cannot express how happy I was to work with Kat and Emil, and to have them be a part of such an integral part of our special day. The unique invitations came out so beautiful and we received so many compliments from our guests! I hope to do more business with Paper Mint Press for our future life events!

    Kat was so wonderful to work with! We came across her when desperately searching for alternatives to standard-made wedding invitations available online and in stores. I liked certain elements of different things we had seen, but nothing was exactly as I had envisioned for my wedding invitations. To add to the stress, I was planning my wedding from Chicago and only had a few days left in California before heading back. She immediately responded to my inquiry and was able to schedule a last-minute meeting before I left for Chicago. She listened to my vision, and then turned it into life! She was so easy to work with, open to my input, and shared her work with me each step of the process. The end result was absolutely stunning. Thank you Kat for helping make my wedding such a dream!

    We are so grateful to Kat and Emil for the beautiful letterpress invitations they made for our wedding. From the first email to the last, Kat has been nothing but responsive and accommodating. She has a great artistic eye and guided us in the right direction, but always respectful of our wishes. The invites came out beautiful thanks to the flawless letterpress imprinted on deliciously thick paper, and the gorgeous design and color just tie everything together. I'm so glad I found The Paper Mint Press and proud to support an up and coming local business!

    Kat was an absolute delight to work with. Originally, I didn't think letterpress could be in our budget. I had been in correspondence with a thermography printer for over a month, but with after countless emails back and forth it seemed we just didn't get each other, and I felt like I was making concession after concession. I was starting to get more and more exasperated and worried as our date was fast approaching.

    In steps the Paper Mint Press. Kat instantly responded to my first tentative email, and we hit the ground running. With email response times usually within an hour, almost always within a day, in less than a week we had all the details figured out, a quote drawn up, the deposit paid any everything moving forward. I knew exactly what I wanted and Kat was amazingly sweet and understanding ever single step of the way. She was patient with my picky color questions and took the time to explain each detail I had a question about. I was super confident I would be able to get the exact invitations I was dreaming of.

    Fast forward about a month and a big box arrives at my doorstep. Inside are the invitations, carefully packaged and more gorgeous and luxurious than I could have imagined: crisp lettering and creamy paper: and the exact colors I had hoped for. From a design, product, and correspondence perspective the entire process was smooth, streamlined, efficient, and enjoyable. AND I have the most perfect invitations ever as a result ;) I would more than recommend Kat and the Paper Mint Press!

    Kat is a dream-maker!!! I went through 5 different companies before I literally called her in the parking lot after a meeting with a woman who told me what I wanted wasn't possible and tried to talk me into things I didn't like. Kat made it happen! She gave me exactly what I wanted, was organized, had major attention to detail, great communication, she was organized and everything was done in a timely manner. She was also the most affordable and gave me so many options. BUT the best part! she was the sweetest and most delightful person to work with. When I first saw my invitations I literally could have cried- They were so stunning! Rose Gold Pressed and clean lines. Ahhhh! She has everything perfectly organized too. Thank you, Kat for the best invitations I have always dreamed of! They are Jaw Dropping! I can't wait to order thank you cards!

    Kat is amazing! She is so easy to work with, full of creative ideas and made the entire process fun! She used high quality materials and makes sure everything was exactly as we wanted it. We used a custom photo on the front of our invitation and they turned out perfect! Kat is really professional, super easy to work with and produces top quality work. I'd recommend her to everyone for wedding stationary, business cards or anything else. She's awesome!

    Kat and team went out of their way to make our invites absolutely gorgeous. Their attention to detail was obvious and extremely appreciated (as I had designed my own invites), from helping me pick through different shades of white paper to ink color and actual graphic design.

    Turnaround time was fast and my fiancee was absolutely thrilled as well. Could not recommend enough - I even placed a business card order with them as the letterpress looks incredible no matter the purpose.

    Our wedding calligrapher, Kristina, introduced us to Kat over email a few weeks ago, to begin the process of printing our wedding invitations.

    From the very first email exchange, Kat was extremely professional, sweet, and helpful! She even mailed us color samples the very next day to choose from, because she knew how we were on a tight deadline to have our invitations mailed out!

    She also followed up to make sure we received them ok, and she confirmed we were pleased with how the colors looked in person.

    I have to say I am very satisfied with the entire process of working with Kat, and with the quality of how our invitations turned out! I would highly recommend Kat and Paper Mint Press to anyone who is planning any event (wedding, shower, birthday, etc) and needs invitations made quickly and of high quality.

    5/5 stars for sure!!! :)

    From day 1, Kat was very professional, attentive to our wishes, and very flexible. She even color matched the invitation wording to match my wedding colors! We were even on a short deadline and they delivered the invitations on time.

    The product came out beautiful and everyone raved about how cute our invitations were. Best of all, my future mother-in-law loved them. The Paper Mint Press gets a smiley face sticker in my book. Definitely recommended.

    I decided to pay for the invitations as a gift to the bride and groom. I truely believe invitations are the starting point to an amazing wedding.
    I'm always particular about how things should look and you can say I have a little OCD. Kat meet my expectation and more. She was very professional and timely. Thank you for making this beautiful invitation

    Kat is wonderful and super talented! I always wanted letterpress invitations from the moment I was browsing for invitations. I didn't realize how expensive a piece of paper could be.

    We needed so many suite pieces to keep with the Filipino wedding traditions.
    -Invite
    -Entourage Card
    -Reception Card
    -RSVP & Envelope
    -Accommodations
    -Outer and Inner Envelopes with Lining

    Kat and her company were perfect; from planning, designing, timelines, and staying within budget. Kat took our ideas and visions for a modern grand Cinderella ball and made them a reality. Her attention to detail, flexibility, creativity, and responsiveness made it very easy to hand over control; we all know invitations is the first impression for your wedding. I am more than 100% happy with how our invitations came out. I absolutely love knowing that no one else will have our design and its just not chosen from a pre-template design. From customizing our paper size, all the way down to the color of ink we were going to use. This was by far thee most enjoyable part of wedding planning. I definitely recommend the Paper Mint Press, not just for invitations! Kat is so creative I am sure she can whip anything up!

    We used Kat for our wedding invitations. Not only was she friendly and flexible, she saved us time and money!!! She had the best prices out of all the people we received quotes from, and her work was awesome. We loved her so much, we went back to her for our programs, place cards, and rehearsal invitations. I can go on and on about how great she was but I don't want you to get bored from reading this. If you have any questions, feel free to message me.

    I worked with Kat at Paper Mint Press. She is extremely creative and will work with any idea you give her. She is very artistic and patient. I had no idea what style or look I wanted. She showed me so many options and really thought outside the box to produce the most beautiful invitations I've ever seen. I'm not one to want to frame my invitation, but I am now. Her work is totally frame-worthy!

    Kat was incredible to work with on my letterpress invitations. I had very little experience with this type of thing and she guided me through everything. She was also very fairly priced and even rushed my order for me b/c I had waited too long to order due to my lack of knowledge in how long letterpress can take. In the end she delivered a beautiful and timely product that turned out even better than I had imagined. I would absolutely recommend The Paper Mint Press.

    The Paper Mint Press is a phenomenal vendor. My contact, Kat Bantad, promptly responds to my emails and print requests. She goes above and beyond to ensure my clients receive their invites prior to their deadlines - regardless of how tight the deadline is. She has been patient with me as I have needed to make multiple updates to any given print request, and she is always flexible and fulfills the request with a smile.

    The quality of the final product is unparalleled. and Kat always sends a few extra, just in case they're needed. I would recommend The Paper Mint Press both on a personal level for personal events, and on a corporate level for corporate events.

    In this day and age where most people print their own invitations or choose from a mass market design, it's refreshing to see real art and talent go into designing a personalized invitation.

    When we first met with Kat to discuss ideas, my husband (!) and I talked about how we love music, as well as how we got engaged at the Coachella Valley Music Festival, underneath a prominent piece of art that was on display. From there, Kat took off with the design and integrated the iconic Coachella landscape, the art piece, and our love of music. After corresponding back and forth to finalize the wording (I wanted to have a concert poster-type feel), we received a letterpressed wedding invitation that our guests loved. LOVED. Some guests did not want to return their RSVP because they wanted to keep the entire invitation suite. In the end, the invitation represented us so well in a beautiful, fun, artistic way.

    Here's what made the invitation even more awesome: the design enabled us to incorporate the Coachella theme into our wedding reception. Without Kat's design, our reception as a whole would not have been as amazing as it turned out.

    If you're looking for a creative invitation that will set yours apart from the mundane, contact Kat at The Paper Mint Press.

    Paper mint press was excellent in creating what I had envisioned for my wedding invitations! I gave her pictures of what I wanted and she worked out a new design unique to my wedding. I wanted my invites on wood paper and she did the research and bought the perfect type. I would highly recommend her.

    I used the Paper Mint Press for our Companies Annual Employee recognition Banquet this year. The end product was more than I could have asked for. Colorful, creative, elegant while sticking to our brand standards. I was so pleased with the initial draft that I also requested matching name tags and event signage to accompany the look & feel. The pricing was extrememly reasonable for the amount of customization and organization I requested. All deadlines were met and event exceeded my expectations with last minute request for additional items I had not accounted for. I will be using services again soon! Kat is wonderful to work with. She is creative, responsive, respectful and a great person to partner with! I highly reccomend using her services for that extra special touch on your printed materials.

    I am thankful I found Paper Mint Press! I called numerous companies, but Kat was most helpful, and extremely creative. She designed my wedding invitation exactly how I imagined it. Not only did my invitations turn out beautiful but they worked extra hard to get them to me quick!!! I procrastinated in ordering them, and thankfully they were able to get them to me fast!!!

    The Paper Mint Press is fantastic. I am a graphic designer and they were great about giving printing recommendations to insure my designs printed at maximum quality for my client's budget. It makes a huge difference in quality when a vendor knows their machinery well, especially when using an antique letter press machine. They were very easy to work with and I loved the 1-on-1 experience. You're not just another 'job' when you work with the Paper Mint Press. Of course, the quality of the product was fantastic too which made for a happy bride. I’d recommend them any day!

    Our wedding invitations were a very complicated 2-sided letterpress design. Paper Mint Press did an AMAZING job!! They far exceed my expectations!! Kat is such a perfectionist and so responsive and professional. We couldn't have been happier!!
