Letterpress invitations?

Where's the best place to get letterpress invitations on long island?
The FI and I are leaning towards bella figura and have only seen one store (inklinations) that carries them.

We only want the actual invitation to be letterpress with pocketfold, and matching envelopes. the other pieces can be something else, or we can do them ourselves..

Any info would be great!

Re: Letterpress invitations?

Did you work with them through their website/online? Did they give any discount?

Or did you go through a vendor?

Re: Letterpress invitations?

I worked with them online-- we ultimately did not wind up going with them. Our wedding guest list was dramatic LOL and so paying $15 a set was out of the question. But like i said best quality bar none!!!! Did you get the samples yet???

Re: Letterpress invitations?

No we didn't order a sample. Just went to inklinations twice to see them in person. Just spent today going through invites. soo dizzying! Finally decided on colors. Just have to figure out where we can get the best deal

Re: Letterpress invitations?

Just emailed them to see if its possible to get the color combination we want as a sample! I hope they can!!! We didn't know you could order custom samples!

Thought it was just ink color swatches and paper samples, the sample invites on the website look like the ones they had in the store book that we saw in person.

Thanks for the info we didn't know! Hopefully they'll let us order the sample.

Do they have a bigger selection in store or is it a small shop with just what's available online?

I just got a response from them today. I don't think they'll send the samples in the color combinations customores want to pick any more unfortunately.

'Hi XXXXXX,

Thank you for your interest in Bella Figura! Unfortunately we only provide the sample in the colors as shown at the dealer & on the website. I hope this helps. If you have anymore questions, feel free to contact me. I will be more than happy to assist you. Thank you!

Sean Mahady
Client Coordinator'

Nevermind. We'll just have to use our imagination!

It's a shop, but I think they can do basically whatever you want. They are really nice.
