Q: Why choose letterpress over digital printing?
A: Letterpress offers a sensory experience—the elegant, tactile impression into the paper cannot be replicated digitally. It conveys quality, heritage, and a commitment to craft, making your stationery instantly feel exclusive and substantial.
Q: What is the typical investment for a bespoke wedding suite?
A: As our work is entirely bespoke, pricing varies significantly based on quantity, complexity (e.g., number of colours, foil stamping, edge painting), and paper stock. Our typical full-suite wedding clients invest between $3,000 and $8,000 CAD. We encourage you to schedule a consultation for a detailed, no-obligation quote tailored to your needs.
Q: How much time should we allocate for a wedding stationery project?
A: Due to the custom nature and hand-fed process, our lead times are intentional. We recommend starting the design process 4 to 6 months prior to your desired mail date to allow for design, revisions, material ordering, and production time on Betty.
Q: Can you accommodate custom colours and specialized finishes?
Absolutely. We use a PMS (Pantone Matching System) for ink colours, allowing for precise colour matching. We also offer sophisticated finishes like blind deboss (no ink), foil stamping (gold, silver, copper), and hand-painted edge finishing.
Q: We are planning a small, intimate event. Do you have a minimum order quantity?
A: Our process is set up for high-quality, bespoke runs. While we don’t have a rigid minimum, our pricing is structured for a quantity that makes the setup time efficient, generally starting around 50 sets.
