Steracle Press Beautiful New Year's Wedding Invitations

Steracle Press brought my New Year’s Eve wedding invitation vision to life. I wanted something traditional and elegant, and they created a beautiful letterpress invitation suite featuring a drawing of our venue, a coordinating details card, and a green wraparound with our initials. We received so many compliments on the paper, the design, and how classic and elegant everything looked.

They also went above and beyond helping with table numbers for the wedding and rehearsal dinner, signage, place cards, menus, and ceremony booklets. Everything was cohesive and beautifully done, and they made the entire process so easy. It was one less thing to worry about on our wedding day.

Amazing team!

We loved working with a local stationer for all of our wedding paper goods. From start to finish—Stacey, Ruby, and Dvorah helped make the design process easy and created an invitation suite we were really happy with! Our day-of paper goods were also perfect - everything had a cohesive feel to it. Everything felt bespoke with the use of their original artwork and custom monogram of our initials! Already looking for another reason to work with them!

Beautiful work

Stacey at Steracle Press is such a creative genius. I have to admit, I have never been one for “printed goods” (much to my mom’s dismay). So I was not overly enthused about any of the printed items going into the wedding planning process. But, my planner stood back and let Stacey change my mind. Stacey has the coolest workshop and literally gave us mock ups of our different ideas in person at our very first meeting, before we paid her a thing. That’s pretty special. After seeing how our invites turned out, I had a ton of faith in her, so I let her and my planner design my seating chart and menus. They did an incredible job and they turned out beautifully. Stacey made printed goods fun and worthwhile! Highly recommend

Amazingly skilled women who can bring a wedding together

We came across Steracle while looking for a local letterpress studio to do our wedding stationary. We met with Stacey, the owner, to start the process. It was really fun to have a hands-on and completely personalized experience. She was able to explain all the options and be transparent about pricing. When we decided to do the wax seals ourselves - she took the time to teach me how.

After getting our beautiful save the dates, I wanted to know more out the process. Alyse was such a sweetheart and gave me and my mom a tour of the studio. It was really cool opportunity that allowed me to see how passionate and creative these ladies are!

When I started planning wedding planning I didn't realize the advantages of having a stationary designer. I thought yeah, they do the save the dates and the invites - NBD. Little did I know! Having Steracle Press made our wedding cohesive. They gave us graphics from the invitations for our website and gifts. They did ALL of the printed products - tags, place cards, signs, welcome booklets, ceremony booklets, etc. Our cake baker even took inspiration from their designs. I believe our wedding wouldn't have been as wonderful without them on our team.

BEST in the biz

If you are in the market for Save The Dates, wedding invitations, wedding paper suite, thank yous, etc. you need to go through Steracle Press. Stacey and her team are honestly incredible. I was able to get beautiful letterpress invitations, details cards and RSVP cards for better quality and better price than Minted or any other online paper store. I used her for our paper suite, as well, (table numbers, escort cards, programs, menus, misc. signs) for a cohesive look throughout the wedding and everything turned out beautifully. They are extremely easy to work with and so quick in responses. They answered my many questions, and tweaked small details to perfection. I will also be going through them to purchase my Thank Yous. They have so many different styles to choose from, but I never felt overwhelmed. Stacey is great at helping you get your ideas onto paper, literally. I will most definitely be going through them for any paper needs in the future. I HIGHLY, HIGHLY recommend Steracle Press if you are looking for elegant, classy and quality paper work!

Wonderful Invitations - Thanks Stacey!

Stacey at Steracle was a joy to work with while we were figuring out our wedding invitations. She took the time to walk us through all of our options before we signed anything or officially agreed to buy invitations from her. She was candid and up front with all pricing options and promised to make sure that the finished product was something we were happy with before printing them.

The invitations looked awesome, and Steracle was pleasant and responsive throughout the entire process. I would recommend them to anybody seeking a vendor for printing for their wedding!

We hired Stacey and Steracle Press to do the invites and all the day-of print items for our wedding in March. My husband was pretty concerned when he saw all the flowers, lace and ribbons on my invite inspiration board and gave us the challenge of coming up with something that I was happy with but wasn’t off-the-charts feminine. Stacey handled that challenge with ease. She had so many invitation styles and examples to choose from and that made it really easy for us (two not very creative people) to mix and match different elements that we liked from each one and form our own, very special invitation. She was even able to implement a custom laser cut design (that played off some of the other décor that would be at our wedding) into the pocket of the invite as well as the menus at our reception to give them a little added pizazz. When our guests started receiving our invites we got countless texts and emails about how beautiful, elegant and classic they were. When there were hiccups in the production or delivery of anything related to print, I didn’t even hear about it, Stacey just handled it and everything was done on time and to an amazingly high standard, which is exactly what a bride looks for when hiring vendors to help with their wedding. If you’re looking for a high quality, cost effective, quick, detail oriented vendor for your wedding print – I highly recommend Stacey and Steracle Press!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
