It's All in the Details

Once thought that simple letterpress and engraved invitations were the only "proper" way to print an invitation, we now see new and creative ways to design a wedding package without losing a bit of grace. Piccolo Press can customize your invitation by adding an innovative twist to the traditional.

Gilded Cards and Invitaitons - Invitations can be hand beveled, round cornered and gilded in either gold or silver.
For more information,

Envelope Lining - Envelopes can be lined with an array of colours or patterns in either paper or tissue.

Booklets - Thought mostly as a vehicle for a program, invitation booklets can be created to incorporated a poem, a quote, a letter to your guests. It is also a great way to do a bilingual invitation.

Folders - We can supply special invitation folders, tied with a ribbon.

Colours - A range of colours is available for your entire wedding package.

Plate Sunk Panels - We can plate sink a panel into any card, using either one of our standard dies or can make a die to your specifications. A plate sunk panel adds real class to an invitation. However, some card does not plate sink as well as others, so please discuss this with us.

Blind Embossing - Blind embossing is the raising of an image from the surface of the paper without the use of ink. Thus the image is tactile and sculptured. Some extremely pleasing (and understated) effects can be produced by blind embossing and it is particularly successful for monograms and motifs. Unless you use one of our in-house dies there will be a charge for making a custom die for this process.
