What makes letterpress wedding invitations so special and high quality?

Our letterpress wedding invitations, printed by skilled artists, have a delicate, tactile quality that makes the invitation feel like a work of art. Letterpress wedding invitations are made by pressing a plate into soft cotton paper. The pressure on the paper results in a crisp indentation that gives dimension to the design, and accentuates intricate details. The paper we use in creating our wedding invitations is a thick, 100% cotton fine art printing paper - it's the highest quality on the market, and softer than the commercial papers that are used for most other wedding invitations. These papers are used because they absorb the indentation of the plate and ink the best. The inks used in letterpress wedding invitations are saturated spot colors, meaning that each color is mixed and applied separately.

In contrast, our digitally printed wedding invitations are created using a process similar to inkjet printing - the colors are a composite of cyan, magenta, yellow and result in wedding invitations that have a flat texture but are flat and affordable. The thing that most sets letterpress wedding invitations apart is the fact that letterpress printing a small-scale, artisanal craft. A set of wedding invitations takes several days to design and print, and the labor involved is reflected everywhere in the finished product. Because of this, letterpress has more in common with fine art than commercial printing - letterpress printed wedding invitations bear comparison to a limited-edition fine art print rather than to a commercially printed product.
