The Aerialist Press

I can't say enough great things about the sweet couple that run this company. Their letterpress is simply beautiful. They also made us some awesome maps for out of town guests. Prices are at least 1/2 of what most letterpress companies charge.

We had a great experience purchasing our letterpress invitations from a California-based paper printing duo: Alexandra and Craig. From picking the best House Design we wanted, to planning the type fonts and colour scheme...my husband and I feel this experience was just magical!

Why we chose The Aerialist: To say that wedding planning is easy is not so! It's a process, and more often than not, we choose vendors because a friend...of a friend...of a friend used a vendor OR we feel a special atachment. For us, we went to San Francisco and loved it there! I was set on letterpress, so when I found 'affordable' letter press out of Emeryville, I jumped at researching our prospects.

Downfall: as the price can get up there (although quite affordable), your invitations being sent over the border to Canada-land will have an additional price tag of $100 or so (especially if the order is over $1,000).

If you want letterpress invitations, you will not get better price, quality or service than from the Aerialist Press. The letterpress map they did of Forest Park for our invitations was amazing! They are located in California, but you can work on your custom design with owner Alex until you are totally satisfied with it by e-mail and/or by phone. Alex is extremely talented, patient, kind and responsive. She will also do some digital designs to complement your invitations which saves a ton of money and looks great. She designed our programs and signage which we had digitally printed.
