The Best Stationery In the Industry!

Run, don't walk to Gus & Ruby! If you're getting married anywhere, use Gus & Ruby to make the most beautiful stationery for your wedding! I found Gus & Ruby because I just moved to Boston and was looking for a new stationery company after the first one used for my save-the-dates was not a great experience. From the moment of reaching out to Samantha to meeting in-person to many emails back-and-forth to bring our vision to life, Gus & Ruby exuded professionalism, kindness, and creativity. Additionally, I'm so happy they expertly worked in my mom's artwork into the wedding suite from the map, crest, and other artwork features. Lastly, it was so much fun ordering day-of stationery items with them like stickers, cocktail bar signs, food signs, and more! All in all, I can't recommend Gus & Ruby enough. They provide the highest quality invitations, day-of items, and service to make you feel at-ease and also realistically within a budget too! The amount of compliments we got on our invitations speaks volume for their work! Thank you, Gus & Ruby for making memorable time pieces that I'll cherish forever. I'm going to miss working with Samantha!

Gus & Ruby Wedding Invitations

We had a truly fabulous experience with the custom invitation team at Gus and Ruby. Laura was very attentive throughout the whole process and is generally a joy to work with. She struck the perfect balance of offering professional expertise and getting us what we wanted. While it is a pricier venture than minted, Zola or the like, it is totally personalized and the quality difference shows both during the design process and in the final product. In fact, several of our guests framed their wedding invitations!!

Would HIGHLY recommend going this route and supporting a small business if you can swing it.

Simply the best.

The paper products were one of the aspects of wedding planning I was most looking forward to working on - and whether or not you feel that way, I promise you that Gus & Ruby will blow you away with their friendliness, professionalism, level of service, and quality of their work. I seriously cannot say enough good things about them, and will always cherish their beautiful work as mementos of our wedding. I had several ideas about what I wanted for our save the dates, invitations, and other paper goods, and they went above and beyond bringing my ideas to life. For the pieces that I wasn’t so sure about, they were creative and thoughtful in creating pieces that would complement and enhance our day. The Gus and Ruby team are detail-oriented, fun to work with, and create gorgeous work. They are responsive to ideas and questions, are great at coming up with alternatives if something doesn’t work, and will work with you until everything is just as you want it to be. They want everything to be perfect for you...They even hand delivered our table numbers to my parents’ house the day before our wedding because the color wasn’t just right. Sam, Laura, and everyone on your team, thank you so much for all your hard work - Everything you created was truly a highlight of our engagement and wedding.
