    Beautiful and Professional

    High quality and creative letterpress designer and printer. Travis was ultimately patient offering great design ideas and incorporating our preferences in creating an invitation suite, menus, bookmarks and thank you cards.

    Beautiful Custom Wedding Invitations

    Parklife Press made our wedding invitation suite (invites, details cards, RSVP cards, and matching envelopes with address printing). We modified an existing design to create a custom final product. Travis was super responsive and quickly worked up several different drafts using different fonts, colors, etc. The pricing was transparent and clear throughout the process. The entire invitation suite was high quality with heavy papers and excellent print/press quality.

    Just gorgeous!

    We ordered our invitations and reply cards from Parklife Press and were absolutely obsessed with their work! We really wanted letterpress invitations, and Parklife Press was one of the most affordable options. Beyond the price, their designs were absolutely lovely! After receiving their samples, we chose a design from their website and Travis worked with us to personalize it to our own colors and taste. We were so happy with the final product. Because we chose the lighter style of paper (300g), Travis warned us that there might be some imprint on the back of the cards due to the press. Happily, there was no imprint and the cards were very heavy and expensive-looking! We originally planned to use a calligrapher for the guest addressing, but our guest list took too long to compile and we had to request guest addressing through Parklife Press last minute. Travis was so flexible with the addressing and even let us know when we accidentally put the wrong state on one of the addresses! Within days of sending the invitations out, we received dozens of calls and texts complimenting the suite. We could not recommend them more. Absolutely impeccable work!

    Travis at Parklife Press was extremely responsive to all my questions. Their prices were very reasonable, especially for letterpress. One of my guests sent the following note to my mom: "The invitations are beautiful. It's been a long time since I've seen such wonderful quality ... a pleasure to keep on view in our kitchen!" ... which about says it all. Really glad we ordered from Parklife Press - highly recommend!

    After a consultation with a stationery design/printing business and having sticker shock from the quote they gave me, I was determined to find an affordable way to have letterpress wedding invitations. I did some research on local letterpress printers (he was still in NC at the time), because I prefer to support a local businesses and work with people in person, and came across Parklife Press. After meeting Travis, seeing his work, and seeing his fair prices, I immediately decided to work with him. He did some design work for me, was super fast about it, and created exactly what I wanted. He even gave me a discount for working with a local wedding planner! Upon receiving my invitations I was SO happy! They were every bit as gorgeous as I thought they would be, and at such a reasonable price! I have received countless compliments on my wedding invitations, and I have Travis to thank. I absolutely recommend him to other brides! Thanks Travis!

    I'm having a small family only wedding and had a hard time finding a company willing to do letterpress invitations in a small quantity. Travis did not hesitate to provide me with a quote and make recommendations on design and style options. He was very responsive to emails and the process was quick and easy. I highly recommend Parklife Press.

    Use Parklife Press.
    Travis and his team are incredible. He is always available by phone or email. He responds promptly and professionally. He also has a very good eye artistically and lead me in the right direction.
    Travis designed a BEAUTIFUL monogram for my invitation and I loved it so much I used it on practically everything for the wedding (including stamps for the invitations!)
    Invitations set the tone for events and so many of my guests called and wrote with how elegant and special the invite was.
    Travis also leads you in the right direction suggesting where you could save money and where it is important not to.

    The letterpress is a splurge, but I have absolutely never seen anything as elegant and truly beautiful as these invitations were. Travis is a dream to work with, he was able to suggest a calligrapher as well and he also designed our programs. Everything was beautiful. He was in the process of moving states during our work together and I never noticed!

    I agonized over invitations for a long time, disliking everything I saw from places liked Minted and Wedding Paper Divas. I finally found Parklife Press, who send free samples, and offer 5 free hours of design work. I was able to use one of their samples that I liked, but made some little design changes with them. The designer did exactly what I wanted, it felt like he was in my brain! I thought the prices were also very reasonable for letterpress. Many people have remarked to me how beautiful the invites were. Highly recommend!

    I'm a Brazilian bride who lives in the UK, and organizing our wedding on long distance wasn't easy. I wasn't having luck with the invitation vendors I found in my hometown, and one day, at Martha Stewart's blog, I found Parklife Press. I sent it an email explaining the situation and Travis promptly answered me. One week later we had decided about the final design of my invitations and in two more weeks they were at my parent's house in Brazil (about 10 days before Travis promised me). The invitations look gorgeous and completely different from every other one I've seen, my guests always compliment me for them. We chose a 600g paper with edge painting and a lined envelope, the combination looks fantastic! I would definitely (and happily) recommend Parklife Press to anyone!

    Parklife Press did an amazing job with our invitations!!! We are so pleased! We were able to convey the style we aiming for and Travis was able to help finalize and implement our beautiful letter pressed invitations. Service was excellent and quick and the quality is top notch. We live in Ohio and easily did everything via phone and email and it was super easy. Great value - Highly Recommend!

    EXCEEDED my expectations!! His letterpress designs are fresh and classic, and he works one-on-one with the bride until every detail is perfect for printing. His prices are more than reasonable and he provides timely and personalized results that you cannot get when you use a big, national printing company.

    Travis @ Parklife printed my custom save the dates and I had a great experience! The very competitive Parklife pricing first brought me here (we used the 15% discount for having done the design independently), but I loved the ease of use of the Parklife website and the fact that Travis sends free samples - you don't even pay for shipping. Travis was responsive and helpful with paper and color choices as well as inkjet guess addressing, and I am very happy with the quality of our save the dates! Would highly recommend using Parklife to print anything letterpress!

    Travis was absolutely wonderful to work with throughout the process of designing my invitations. He listened carefully to what I envisioned and used his artistic creativity to come up with exactly what I had pictured in my mind. He was always quick to respond to phone calls or emails, and would happily tweak or change anything I asked. I also really like the way he designs proofs and puts them online for you to review and comment on, since we live in Virginia and he is in North Carolina. When we decided on a design it didn't take long to receive the actual invitations, and when I opened them up I was so impressed with the quality of his work. They were perfectly printed on beautiful, thick paper. We had many wedding guests compliment our invitations and ask who did them. We were so happy with how they turned out and would recommend Parklife Press to anyone who is looking for quality, custom letterpress work.

    I loved working with Travis. From start to finish the design process went really smoothly. He always responded to my inquiries right away and the final product was so much nicer than the more expensive letterpress companies. Both the quality of the papers and inks are excellent. If you're debating letterpress invitations, go for it. Parklife Press in extremely resonably priced and you wont be disappointed. I look forward to working with them again for future projects

    Travis did an amazing job! All of my guests loved them and it was a great preview to what our wedding day would be like. We did the square letterpress invites, rehearsal dinner invites and response cards with an envelofold. The whole process was so easy. Travis created multiple proofs and was very accommodating. They all turned out just as I wanted them too and just as Travis showed me in the proofs. He was very quick to respond to all of my emails. I really wanted something memorable for invites instead of just buying them premade off of a website. I got just that!

    I'm a real graphic design nut, and my fiance and I are really picky about style and aesthetics. We knew we wanted letterpress invitations, but needed to keep the budget low, and because I wanted to design everything myself we needed someone who would work with me to print them. I did a LOT of research before making a choice. First, among the many samples I solicited Travis' work stood way out—the printing was crisp and clear; the paper was of extremely high quality; and the colors true. Many of the samples I had ordered (especially from Etsy vendors) were flimsy and overprinted, with deep indentations showing through the back of the card. Not so with Travis! Once I got in touch with him, he was also extremely professional and flexible about working with my designs (including a hefty discount for doing my own design work). He gave us excellent advice as we tried to decide between different brands and weights of paper, and helped us keep the overall price down. Ultimately we ordered invitations with printed envelopes, thank-you cards, and placecards, and the results were absolutely beautiful. I can't recommend Parklife Press enough.

    Travis' work was impeccable, affordable, timely, and gorgeous. My wedding was in DC and I found Parklife Press online -- while we never met in person, Travis emailed and called throughout the entire process to make me comfortable with the design from start to finish. He helped us figure out what lay-out and colors matched the mood of our wedding, and we received countless compliments on the gorgeous paper and letterpress design. The address on the envelope is worth the cost -- it saves tons of time and looks beautiful. I'll definitely come back to Travis and Parklife Press for our stationary, announcement, and invite needs in the future.

    I was extremely impressed with Parklife Press. As soon as we saw the beautiful letterpress invitations we fell in love with them. The Blossom design that we used inspired several different aspects of the wedding as well. We are still getting compliments on the invitations several months after the wedding! Customer service was wonderful with very prompt relies and personal attention throughout the process. I would recommend Parklife for any occasion, particularly for those occassions that are especially meaningful.

    I knew that I wanted the elegance that comes with letter press invitations, but was struggling with the price from most vendors. I found Parklife press on Google and I was immediately impressed with their designs, colors, fonts, and pricing! I knew that my invitations and reply cards would have to be slightly customized by inserting a bee into the design. I sent Travis at Parklife Press my image and he immediately inserted it in to the invitation I had chosen . . . I loved it!! I did change my mind about placement, font, colors, etc., but everyone at Parklife Press was accommodating and easy to work with. In the end I got perfect invitations, reply cards, and Travis even made an AMAZING map of downtown Charleston highligting all of the venues. I could not possibly thank Parklife Press for helping make this part of the planning so easy for me (and for much less than I would have spent somewhere else). I would highly recommend them to anyone!

    I loved working with Parklife Press where I got my letter press invitations and programs. I have a soft spot for letterpress and I really wanted it for my invitations, but they were so expensive! Then I came across the Parklife Press website and fell in love with a Cameron Glen design. Travis worked with me to get just the right ink color to match my colors. Then he was very patient with me as I tried to find just the right fonts. Everything was done quickly and efficiently on the web and through emails. The only downside was that I approved the proof without seeing how it looked in person. I think if I had seen a physical copy of the invitations before placing the order I may have chosen a different color paper. I did get physical examples of the different types and colors of the available papers, but not as my invitations would appear with my ink color, etc.

    After I got engaged and began researching paper - I knew that I wanted letterpress, but suffered from some initial sticker shock. After inquiring with several other printers, Travis was by the best value and we LOVED the quality of his custom paper. Travis provided a generous discount to the total package cost since we provided our own design. Travis sent us the most beautiful samples in our color scheme and helped us (via email and phone) pick out the right color of ink and paper based on on the samples. He was also great with checking in with us as we finalized out designs to ensure we would get our paper suite in time. The invites turned out perfect. We recently sent out the invites and have gotten so many comments on the quality of the letterpress and paper. I'd highly recommend working with Parklife Press for any letterpress needs.

    Travis was awesome to work with. He clearly knows his materials very well and he was able to steer us toward certain materials without being overbearing. (When I began to research invitation options, I was surprised by several people who told me I "didn't want [what I thought I wanted]"... Travis was never like that, though.) I live in Philadelphia, so we conducted all of our business through email, and he made it super easy. When the invitations arrived, they were breathtakingly beautiful. Yes, I did spend a few dollars more per invitation than one would if they walked into Michael's and purchased print-at-home invitations, but the extra money was well worth the extra design help and non-existent production headaches. Travis took care of it all. He often responded in emails on the weekend (which I did not expect, as he is the owner of the company) and the one time we had a bit of a miscommunication on the response card I wanted, he fixed it right away. I would recommend his work and his company to anyone in a heartbeat.
