Sabrina at SmudgeInk helped with designed my invitation set and they were gorgeous! I loved that Sabrina was able to incorporate some traditional aspects of invitation with so many personal touches and the quality was just phenomenal. I received dozens of compliments on them. It’s definitely on the pricier side with all the online options out there, but you get what you pay for when you use SmudgeInk and I can’t wait to use them again!

We could not have been more happy with Smudge Ink, Sabrina, and the entire experience of working with this vendor. We had waited too long to order wedding invitations but Sabrina worked with us to select a design we loved quickly, and everything was expedited so that we were able to mail our invitations out exactly six weeks before the wedding, just as if we had started the preocess much earlier. We loved the antique presses which create an elegant and understated product. The double weight Italian paper with the deep plum ink we chose made for a wow-factor invitation without any cheesy glitz, just true old-world gorgeousness. Some of our friends said they kept returning to the invitation just to touch it! I cannot wait to have another excuse to order more products from this unique company -- which looks (although I am not sure this is true) to be run almost entirely by women. Bravo!!!

I worked with Sabrina at Smudge Ink for my wedding invitations, table menus, wedding programs, table numbers, etc. and she did an amazing job. She also had the added work that there were two types of invitations that we were sending out (one to friends and one to family), and both were designed beautifully. A number of my guests loved our invitations so much, they wanted to be put in touch with Smudge Ink to design their personal stationery!

Smudge Ink is AMAZING! Their work is beautiful! I can't even count the number of people who complimented my invitations and even the paper quality! Sabrina was a dream to work with. I designed custom invitations and Sabrina was able to provide me with lots of samples and inspiration to create the vision that I had in my head but couldn't articulate. Sabrina and team did an amazing job following up with me to make sure that I was happy with all of our wedding stationary and even sent a thank you card after the wedding. We were running slightly behind in terms of sending out invitations and Smudge Ink was able to create the invitations in time for the wedding. They were also able to recommend amazing calligraphers for our invitations. I highly recommend Smudge Ink not only for wedding invitations but any type of letterpress stationary.

Smudge Ink was awesome. They do a really great job with both the design and the printing -- they made both our save-the-dates and our invitations look very classy and very expensive. It's pricey, but not out of line. I only wish we had had our act together sooner so we could also have them design and print our escort cards and table number cards, but we didn't have time. We also bought some fabulous thank-you notes from them, and they have a great selection of gifts that we used for bridesmaids and friends who threw showers/parties or just helped out with the wedding. Highly recommended!

THEY SIT DOWN WITH YOU ONE-ON-ONE TO DESIGN YOUR INVITATIONS JUST HOW YOU WANT, AND THEY ARE GREAT ABOUT GETTING THEM RIGHT TO YOU ONLINE VIA PDF. THEY WERE WONDERFUL TO WORK WITH, ESPECIALLY KATE! HIGHLY RECOMMEND THEM AND GREAT QUALITY. DEFINITELY ONE OF THE BEST PLACES FOR LETTERPRESS, ALOT MORE PERSONABLE THAN PAPER SOURCE.

Deb at Smudge Ink worked with us to create the cutest custom Save-the-Dates! I really love letterpress and they do a great job. I think they have a unique style that is modern and clean and can be easily customized for any wedding or other event invitation. I will be purchasing additional thank-you notes from them as well. And maybe, one day, birth announcements! : )

Kate at Smudge Ink designed our save-the-dates and invitations and did a fabulous job. I fell in love with letterpress, which happens to be very expensive, but she quoted us the best price of the the letterpress vendors that we looked at. I could not find a design that I liked even after spending hours and hours flipping through those big books at the stationary stores, so I knew I would have to have a custom design made. I talked with Kate about what I was thinking and what I liked, and sent her to a few websites, and she came back with several different versions for me to choose from. I got SO many compliments on our save the dates and invitations! I probably spent too much (in my parents' opinion) on paper goods, but to me, it was worth it to have such beautiful invitations.
