FAQs: Timeless Wedding Invitations

What makes a wedding invitation “timeless”?

Timeless wedding invitations focus on classic typography, balanced layouts, and elegant embellishments that transcend trends. They’re designed to feel relevant and beautiful for decades to come.

Is letterpress printing worth the investment?

Absolutely, if it's something you're interested in and you have the budget for it! Letterpress printing creates a luxurious, tactile impression and works especially well for formal or black-tie weddings. It also elevates even the simplest designs.

Do you offer samples?
