The quality of the artistry and the materials used is of the highest level: from the illustrations of our ceremony and reception venues, to the personalized map of NYC, to the custom crest Tricia and team designed for us, every piece of the invitation suite, programs, and other paper goods used throughout our wedding felt personal and elegant, which is exactly the tone we were hoping to strike. Beyond the high quality products, Tricia was a true pleasure to work with throughout our wedding planning process. 1440's artwork and design elements are wonderful, although at points in the process attention to detail and proofreading could have been improved, especially at the price point. Overall, we are extremely happy with the beautiful work that Tricia and her team did for our wedding.

Tricia created customized invitations for us as well as ceremony programs, menus, escort cards, table numbers and even matchbook favors, custom tote bags for our bridal party and welcome gift bag cards. Not only was the artwork beautiful in and of itself, but all the pieces were expertly coordinated and tied perfectly into our wedding aesthetic. Most importantly, they reflected the individual styles of both myself and my husband, too. Tricia and her team are tremendously talented and professional - not a detail was overlooked, and she was incredibly responsive, patient and flexible throughout the entire process. Our suite of printed pieces was one of our favorite parts of our wedding. We could not recommend her more!

Her invitations were beautiful and we received many compliments on her work. She is very talented and worked with my wife throughout the entire process going over fonts/colors and ensuring everything came out exactly the way we envisioned. Her customer service was also extremely impressive. She was very responsive, easy to work with, and very accommodating with unique requests. We used fragile sea shells for escort cards (and had some last minute seating changes), and Gabby did an amazing job on that project - even repackaging the shells perfectly in a box with layers of bubble wrap for us to transport to the venue. Gabby is very talented and you can tell she truly cares about her work and making sure her clients get exactly what they need. I would recommend her to anyone. If we ever need any calligraphy in the future, we will be repeat customers!

I can not say enough good things about Adrienne and Ipanema Press. When we were planning our…read morewedding she came highly recommended from a family member and she definitely exceeded our expectations. Adrienne took the time to go over everything with us and was patient with all of our questions. There are tons and tons of options but she found styles we liked after only going through a few books. Once we made our selections the turn around time was really quick and we were very pleased with the work. It was the highest quality and everyone loved both the save the date cards as well as the invitations. ( I personally think we had the best ones out of all of ours friends but maybe I am biased) If you need any sort of invitation work done please do yourself a favor and go to Ipanema Press, I highly recommend it!

Don't walk, RUN to Ipanema Press!…read more I had previously met with several other reputable wedding invitation designers and left every appointment feeling lost and hopeless - I thought I was going to have to "settle" on an invitation....but then I walked into Ipanema Press. Prior to meeting with Ipanema Press, clients fill out a short survey about your wedding style, logistics, etc. - Erica even researched our wedding website to learn more about my (now) husband and I. When we arrived for our first meeting, there weren't any books to flip through - Erica had two samples waiting that she thought were our style. I loved both and knew I wanted a mixture of the two. She quickly pulled out a sample...this was our wedding invite! Reflecting on our first meeting, what I appreciated very much is that within minutes Erica had essentially selected our wedding invitation for us - the rest of our appointment was spent designing the suite (wedding program, escort cards, etc.) and finalizing the details of the invitation (there are so many - verbiage, reply cards, paper stock, envelope color/paper/font, etc.). It's those details that made our invitation so special, memorable, and got our guests excited for your special day! At other places, I spent my ENTIRE appointment trying to even find an invite I maybe liked. Throughout the entire process, Adrienne made me feel like the only job she was working on (especially during the proofing process). Adrienne couldn't have been more accommodating always answering my questions promptly and with such knowledge and kindness. It is without question that Ipanema offers the HIGHEST quality of product and service - I highly recommend you visit Ipanema Press, hands down!

Following…read morea long distinctly British tradition of visual dignity, Wren Press creates custom engraved, letterpress, and printed personal and corporate stationery of the highest quality. With a beautiful range of both traditional and non-traditional papers and styles, Wren Press offers the custom service and details that cannot be offered by the conglomerate stationers who have taken over this industry. Ann Patron is as knowledgable as she is personable, and I can't imagine a wedding or celebration that wouldn't benefit from her help, and Wren Press papers. If it's good enough for the Royal Family, don't you think you're worth it?

Alpine Creative Group specializes in invitations. I came looking for wedding invitations…read morespecifically, and they are all very elegant. Some of their papers and styling are particularly heavy, making the invitation a true memento. I particularly like their sketched maps. I find their Pemberley collection, which they are promoting this fall, a little too fancy. It's hard to read the script! Nonetheless, it's clear to me why they've received so many accolades.

I have to share the most wonderful expireience I had with Alpine Creative Group…read more First, let me start by saying that I am the PICKIEST, most high maintenance bride probably of all time. I have been planning my wedding in great detail since the age of 5 and know EXACTLY what I want. For the past few months I have had the pleasure of working with Molly. When I first met Molly it was our first meeting to design our wedding "Save The Dates." She was super cheerful among introduction and she and I just clicked. She had such a wonderful energy and presence about her. I gave her an idea of what I wanted our "Save the Dates" to look like and she created a design that truly blew my fiancé and I away. She was able to stick with our original idea but enhanced it for a visually stunning effect. (She knows her stuff!) I cannot tell you how many compliments I received from our guests about them. Fast forward to our wedding invitations. My fiancé and I wanted something SUPER modern and chic. We also wanted an original design that would WOW our guests and be the first look into our wedding. Molly recommended mixing different textures with beautiful unique fonts for a STUNNING effect. I left the design elements up to her and I must say she exceeded our expectations and beyond. I just received our wedding invitation sample in the mail today and there are no words to describe how UNBELIEVABLY gorgeous it is. From the calligraphy to the script font to the shimmering paper, everything about this invitation is perfection. I'm so excited to continue to work with Molly and see what she comes up with for our menus and escort cards. If you're looking for invitations that will WOW your guests and truly exceed your expectations I highly recommend Alpine Creative Group. They clearly take great pride in their work and it absolutely shows!
