What makes letterpress style invites so popular is the unique way in which they are printed, a technique that leaves a deep indentation in the paper. This effect cannot be produced using other means, which makes the printing method very unique itself. Another reason is this kind of invitation is elegant and interesting. Usually, people use 100% cotton paper for letterpress for the soft and elegant feel and it is also a great eco-friendly choice.

One thing to bear in mind is that letterpress paper is generally not suitable for photo or intense graphic printing. It goes without saying that invitations will play a big part in setting the perfect tone for your dream wedding day.

Below are just some examples of the type of letterpress invitation designs you can find.

All in all, letterpress wedding invitations will provide your wedding announcement with all the beauty and elegance that you expect.
