LETTERPRESS PRINTING

Best described as old world printing you can feel, this classic printing technique brings sophisticated elegance to your event. Whether you’re planning a black tie affair, or simply want to set a tone that will impress your guests, letterpress printing will not disappoint!

Letterpress printing uses traditional printing presses along with metal dies to press ink into cotton paper, leaving a subtle impression you can feel. This specialty print process is more labor intensive than digital printing, and requires a separate die and press run for each color in the design, therefore best suited for designs that have a limited color palette and simple design aesthetic.
