Albertine Press

I worked with Albertine Press for letterpress menus, place cards, and custom stationary for my recent small wedding. Both Shelley and Jen were incredible to work with. They were so easy to communicate with along every step of the process over email as well as in person. After I inquired about their offerings, they sent me some samples in the mail which was very helpful! I met with Shelley in-person and she was such a dream to work with. She showed me more samples and even drew some ideas by hand for the menus. The final products were so beautiful and exactly what I was hoping for. Albertine Press does beautiful work and I look forward to working with them in the future for more custom stationery!

Excellent local spot for corporate gifts as well!

I’m a lifelong Inman-ite and was very excited to work with them this year on office gifts. Mary and her team were so helpful and proactive with creating perfect gift bags for a team of 39. They rolled with every change I had to make and a pleasure to work with.

Support local! Support Inman! Thanks so much albertine, I look forward to working with you again!

We used Albertine Press for our wedding save the dates and invitations and they could not have come out more perfect! Shelley sat down with us in person and listened to what our vision was for our wedding. She took our vision and designed the most beautiful suite for us. The whole process felt so personalized and she was open to any edits I had throughout to process. I highly recommend Albertine Press for any stationary needs!

We had our wedding invitations done here and couldn’t be happier with the results. We came in with no idea of what we wanted and Shelley helped us discover the style and tone we wanted to convey. We got tons of compliments on the final product and wish we could work with her and Albertine more often.

Albertine press did a wonderful job designing our wedding invitations! Their team was helpful and flexible as we developed our idea, and they truly made our vision come to life. The shop itself is lovely, and I could spend hours browsing there!

I have long loved paper crafts and ever since discovering Albertine Press several years ago, I knew that I was interested in their custom wedding invitations. My husband and I really enjoyed seeing how Shelley took our not-well-defined vision and turned it into a set of wedding stationery more perfect than we could have imagined. Our guests were so impressed by the artwork and we got many compliments, especially about our save the dates. The process of working with the AP team was seamless. Whether communicating in person, over email, or over the phone, they made sure we were informed during every step. I also appreciated that we were able to stay within our budget and that the financial expectations were clearly communicated to us. We would absolutely recommend any couple to work with Albertine Press - you won't be disappointed!

We worked with Shelley and her team to design our wedding invitation suite, and we were very happy with the whole experience! The team at Albertine Press were a joy to work with, from end to end. At the beginning, Shelley sent us a large package full of previous work samples that matched some of the moods and styles we told her we liked. Throughout the revision process, Shelley was quick to respond and very receptive to any feedback we had. She was patient through the rounds of edits and typography selections. The end result was beautiful: our invitations and RSVP cards had custom hand-drawn illustrations of our venue and florals, in addition to a custom floral envelope liner to go with it. Highly recommend working with Albertine Press to create your custom invitation suite!

I wish I could give Shelley and the Albertine Press team 10 stars for creating the most magical wedding invitation suite and wedding day paper. Shelley brought everything I could have asked for to life in designing our custom wedding invitation suite - from playful fox and shamrock illustrations on vellum to all the personalized details that we will forever cherish. Our guests were absolutely blown away by the wedding invitation suite and it was just a precursor to the beautiful starry night custom menus, welcome packets, and ceremony programs. Not only are Shelley and her team extremely creative, they are a joy to work with - always professional, responsive and thoughtful. I couldn't have asked for a better partnership for our wedding invitation suite and wedding paper items. My husband and I look forward to working with Shelley again in the future and we can't thank her and the team enough!!!

I've loved Albertine Press's work for years, so when my now-husband and I became engaged, it was an easy decision to ask Albertine Press to design our invitations. We are so glad we did. Shelley and Jen are so talented and are such a great listeners, that after only one back-and-forth we had the PERFECT wedding suite. It captured our shared personalities and all our hopes for our day. As my husband remarked, "I didn't know wedding paper could make me feel so happy." We received so many compliments from our guests after sending them out. After the wedding, we knew we wanted to keep the theme in our lives, so, Shelley and Jen again helped us design perfect thank-you cards as our first shared stationary. Truly could not recommend Albertine enough for your wedding paper!

My friend and I joined the post card class. It was super fun, the instructor was very nice

I came to Albertine Press relatively last minute for my wedding invitations and paper suite, after having a poor experience with another vendor. They were so kind and professional and were able to help me put together my dream paper suite! They understood the motif I was looking for and were able to provide me all the assets I needed, within my budget. Most importantly, they were extremely organized which was exactly what I needed during the stressful planning process. I cannot thank the team at Albertine Press more for such a seamless, beautiful process!

Shelley and her team are awesome people and artists who sell great merchandise. I worked with Shelley about a year ago to design and print custom letterpress stationery for my girlfriend -- she not only produced beautiful hand-drawn art that perfectly matched my nebulous specifications, but she did it on a relatively tight timeline and even gift-wrapped the final product for no additional fee. She also charged half what competing high-end letterpress shops were quoting me, not even accounting for the custom art. I shop here at least once a month and am so grateful to live nearby!

I love this little shop with all of my heart. The people who work here are delightful, the products are either locally-made or wonderfully unique, and I buy all of my cards here, as well as little doodads to fit into envelopes. :)

A lovely Inman Square shop! They do beautiful custom work (invites, stationary, etc.), have a cute selection of retail goods (stationary, gifts, etc.) and even hold workshops! The owner, Shelley, is wonderful! A special place.

Shelley and her team did our wedding invitations and they were beautiful. Some people didn't want to send the RSVPs back because they liked them so much. :-) We wanted a foodie inspired theme and Alberine Press drew original pictures of little veggies that went with our wedding colors to add character. Since we were travelling we asked Albertine Press mail our invitations. They partnered with a digital calligrapher to address all of our envelopes with the guest's names and addresses. To top it off they got the cutest farmer's market food themed stamps for the envelopes. It was cohesive, stylish and so us!

I love this place. I will often bring my friends here when they visit because it's so cute. They have the best cards and other cute things around the store. Definitely recommend stopping in if you're in Inman Square.

Beautiful selection of cards and other stationery, both seasonally appropriate and all-purpose. Haven’t been to one of their workshops yet, but noticed a calligraphy workshop going on in the back half of the store.

Cutest shop. Love getting my greeting cards here plus you never know what other magic you’ll find.

My favorite place for buying all of my cards, stationary, and gift giving things! They have the best things and it's all so pretty! Plus the staff is always amazing!

Lovely little store with a wonderful selection of print goods and items. Love the stickers, patches, magnets, notebooks, and greeting cards. Just being in this bright shop cheered me up!
