Invitations that will leave your guests in awe!

I wish I could give them 100 stars because my best decision for my wedding was working with Double Trip Press. I do not even know where to begin to tell you future brides/grooms how much I love and adore Ryan and Nicolette. I wanted to work with a local company near my house in Lakeview, so I found Double Trip Press by simply Googling and reading their reviews. They were all 5 stars and wonderful, so I knew I needed to check out the team for myself to see if this was the real deal. The moment my parents, husband and I first met Ryan, it was an instant connection. I explained to Ryan my vision for the wedding but told him I had no idea how I wanted the invitations to look. I was lost! He told me to trust him, and I completely did. The moment I saw my mock ups, I cried. Ryan blew my parents', husband's and my exceptions out of the water! He even created our monogram and custom wax seal that we will use for the rest of our lives. Ryan and Nicolette not only did our invitations but all of our day of items: place cards, bar signs, dinner menus, custom ribbon bound church programs, custom guest book made out of Horween Leather (absolutely unreal), dance floor monogram, cocktail napkins with our monogram, custom personalized cigar match books with our monogram (a surprise gift for my husband, his groomsmen, and all guests that fancy a cigar as I had them put out in bowls at the 4 bars), thank notes, and custom stationary for Shane and me, which I gift my husband on our wedding morning when I wrote my first letter to him with my new last name.

I cannot speak any more highly of these wonderful two people who made all my wedding dreams come true. My husband's favorite part was when Ryan let him do one of the letter presses on our invitations. It was quiet a personalized and unforgettable experience working with Double Trip Press. They are genuine and care about your wedding dreams and vision. HIRE THEM!!! I will most definitely be using them in the future for future O'Mara parties and my parents have already told Ryan to start thinking of ideas for the next Durkin weddings. :) BEST DECISION EVER

Professional Service - Beautiful Product

Working with Ryan was an amazing experience. His ability to take the prospective bride and groom's ideas and bring them forward in the invitation suite was so creative and the end result was one of the most unique and beautiful invitations. Several guests complimented them, and one said she was going to frame the artwork! His responsiveness and flexibility are to be commended. Each piece was beautiful, well-coordinated, and of the highest quality. Thank you Ryan!

Amazing Team!

Ryan and Nicolette were a DREAM to work with! My (now) husband and I had a lot of scattered design ideas for our invitations, and Ryan really helped guide us through the design process and produced such a beautiful invitation suite for us. Everything was high quality, cohesive, and made with love! Aside from the physical products, which were exceptional, communications and meetings with Ryan and Nicolette could not have been better. They were patient, great listeners, and the perfect partners in an otherwise overwhelming process. Thank you, Ryan and Nicolette, for being amazing at what you do and for being fantastic human beings!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
