My wife and I used Bella Figura for our wedding invitations and we could not be happier with how they came out and also with the service Mariana provided throughout the whole process. Mariana was attentive, responsive and a pleasure to work with. She made picking out invitations fun and easy! We also didn't come in knowing what we want and made a lot of custom edits - she gave her valuable opinion on what was feasible / would look good while also getting creative and thinking outside the box with us. Mariana even went to the post office for us to weigh our invites so we knew how much postage to get. Our guests were raving about the way the invitations looked. We got several calls, texts and outreach after we sent them out. They came out very high quality and elegant. Would recommend to anyone looking for an invitation place!

We used Smock's letterpress services for our Save the Date and invitations. I was a little nervous about working with a firm remotely as we live in Washington, DC. However, we were designing our own invitations and they offered both the gold foil and letterpress as well as the ability to use only their printing studios. I had a somewhat complex and elaborate design and was probably a fairly high maintenance client in hindsight. Kevin Trease could not have been more wonderful and patient talking me through possible ideas to execute my hair brained ideas on a budget. And their designers were fantastic and accommodated us when wanted to incorporate calligraphy and watercolors, crests, etc. from other vendors to save costs. We were thrilled with the save the dates and invitations and they exceeded our expectations. My only hiccup was that I did not understand that this is all recycled paper (high quality just not completely smooth) and this was not the look i was going for. However, they were able to bring in outside paper for the invitations and they turned out fantastic. There were a couple teeny errors in the final invite packet but nothing anyone else would have noticed, and potentially the error was on my end. I would have loved to use them for our programs and day of paper printing but we couldn't justify the cost. It was not inexpensive however, their prices were on par for the exceptional quality and services!

I worked with Boxcar press to have letterpress plates made so I can DIY my invitations. I am not literate in digital design AT ALL. I worked with Rebecca, emailing different versions of my design so that it could be perfected and appropriate for pressing. Our contact was professional and very prompt. I had a couple difficulties due to the software I was using, but Rebecca was able to make the necessary changes which I will forever be grateful for. I ordered my plate on Thursday afternoon and it arrived on Saturday afternoon. I was blown away by how quickly they arrived. It was amazing to see my design come into fruition. Now on to hand pressing my own invitations. Thank you Boxcar!

Lori is the best there is! She is professional, patient and a great communicator. Her creativity is extremely helpful and she goes above and beyond to make sure the final product is perfect. Her resources are endless and she truly made my dream wedding invitation a reality (not to mention the perfect menu cards, place cards, napkins, guest towels - the list goes on and on!) She was by far one of my favorite vendors to work with!!
