Of all the vendors that I engaged with while planning my wedding, Sesame Letterpress was absolutely the best. Breck and her team were incredibly responsive, and the design process ...
was curated in such an easy yet inspiring way. The team was so organized, communicative, and brought my vision to life in a way I never could have imagined. My invitations are STUNNING and one of my most favorite parts of our wedding.
I have nothing but the most POSITIVE things to say about Sesame Letterpress. I would recommend Breck to any and all brides - and anyone who wants beautiful, personalized, and inspiring stationery!

es —and every piece was absolutely stunning. Their designs were classic, elegant, and of the highest quality.
Our wedding was held in NYC, and it was important to us that our invitations captured the vibrant essence of the city. They beautifully incorporated a Chrysler Building motif on the invitation, along with a custom NYC map as the envelope liner, which added a unique and personal touch. I received so many compliments on our invitation suite, especially on the beautiful details that truly elevated everything.
The entire process was seamless thanks to their excellent communication and client portal. Breck was super responsive to any feedback/edits during the design proof stage, making everything straightforward and stress-free. Their turnaround times were quick, and they kept me informed every step of the way, including when shipping all the printed items.
When the items arrived, I was even blown away by the attention to detail in the packaging. Everything was wrapped carefully in tissue paper, and organized beautifully, which made the experience feel even more special.
I couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out and recommend Sesame Letterpress for your wedding stationary needs!

We highly recommend Sesame Letterpress for your Wedding Invitations & Stationary! We came across their work on Pinterest during the beginning of our wedding planning and knew they ...
would be the perfect fit for us. There is no other Letterpress company that compares to their quality, history, value, and beautiful artwork/printing. Breck was an absolute pleasure to work with, she is very organized, her communication and planning is very prompt, and their portal is very straight forward and helpful in creating your own custom invitations with their colors, fonts, and vintage images. They created the most beautiful invitation and timeline card for us that fit exactly to our aesthetic and theme of our wedding. We were so grateful they were able to have our invitations ready and delivered so beautifully with a quick turnaround given a very busy wedding season. We can’t wait to continue to order from them!
Breck and her team are truly amazing and really talented. We could not have been happier with how the stationary turned out. I mean their team even designed us a custom logo using ...
our first initials! The quality of the paper they use and attention to detail is truly unmatched.
The design process was seamless, easy, and not stressful at all. The best part is truly how much Breck cares about her work and made sure everything was executed perfectly along the way. They even went as far as sourcing the ribbons for us and assembled the invitations, which was a huge help.
We couldn't have been happier with the result of our wedding invitations, and matching thank you notes.

execution process. She helped us choose imagery, colors, and fonts that went with our vision and also connected us with King’s Scribe to help address the envelopes. It took a few weeks to solidify everything, and we were able to provide feedback to make sure everything was to our liking. Breck and the team are experts in the craft of letterpress and the finished product (invitation suite) was absolutely beautiful - we felt like we were sending little gifts to all of our invitees.

Our menus were also beautiful and despite placing the order late, Breck ensured they came with time to spare.

ad just mailed our stunning custom invites to family and friends when we had to postpone our celebration due to Covid. To speak to Sesame's kindness, Breck emailed us during the early weeks of quarantine to offer any help and support she could as many of her clients were postponing. Months later, while planning our postponed reception, we knew we wanted to work with Sesame again. We just sealed and stamped the new invites and can't wait to mail them (again!). Breck and her team are creative, responsive, professional, and make the entire process feel seamless and fun. Truly my favorite part of the wedding design and planning process. Thank you!!!
If you're looking for wedding invites / stationary of any kind, look no further than Sesame. We couldn't have loved our time working with Breck and her amazing team more. We met wi...
th multiple paper vendors for our wedding invites and there was absolutely no question that we'd use Sesame. Their designs were exactly what we dreamed of and their patience and creativity are unparalleled. They are an absolute dream to work with and we received SO many compliments on how beautiful our invite suites were. We came back multiple times asking to see different versions of our invites; where as other vendors would roll their eyes at the request, Breck worked with us patiently to make sure everything turned out exactly how we wanted it. Could not be happier to be part of the Sesame family and will only use them for all paper needs from here on out. Thank you again!!!
We LOVED working with Breck, and our invitations turned out absolutely perfect. Breck worked hand in hand with us every step of the way. We asked for a several iterations in terms ...
of styles, fonts and colors so that it would match exactly what we had envisioned. She was incredibly responsive and understanding, and the turnaround was unbelievably fast. She paid attention to every detail, and even offered advice and guidance when I had questions as to what was the "norm" or what she thought would be most appropriate. Overall, we had a great experience, loved partnering with Breck, found the turnaround to be super fast, and are in love with the final invites. Thank you Breck + Sesame Letterpress!

amazing experience from start to finish, and the finished product exceeded anything we could have hoped for. Breck had so many great suggestions, and was so patient and accommodating throughout the edit process (including our long deliberation over which icons best represented our welcome party and our morning-after brunch). Working with Breck and her team is a very personalized process, and it's clear how much she genuinely cares about each and every one of her clients.
Our invitation suite was one of the most complimented parts of our wedding, and we can't wait to write our thank you notes on our beautifully classic notecards from Sesame Letterpress. Thank you to Breck and her whole team! We will definitely be back for all invitation/notecard needs in the future!
Other than marrying my husband, reaching out to Breck and her team was THE BEST decision I've ever made. We were just four months shy of our Miami destination wedding, when I reali...
zed a generic invite wasn't going to cut it. After researching local letterpress companies, I stumbled upon the Sesame Letterpress website, and the rest is history. Breck was such a pleasure to work with. Not only was she able to accommodate my very tight timeline, she was also incredibly patient with every one of my requests - like incorporating a Wes Anderson type font, pink flamingos, pineapples, and palms! Our friends and family loved our invites so much that they couldn't bear to throw them away long after we said "I do"! Thank you again Breck and team for making us the invites of our dreams!
Breck and her entire team were incredible from the first email, to the first phone call, through the many (many!) rounds of edits that she tirelessly worked through. The results w...
e received were better than we could have ever anticipated on our own, and we had SO many guests compliment us on our invitation suite and day-of paper. The designs she’s uploaded on the website are just the tip of the iceberg for what the Sesame team can do and Breck never once said “I’m not sure that will work” — somehow, it always did.
We are so lucky to have found her and recommend her without a single reservation. We can’t wait to work with her again!!

ed the one at our wedding venue. Breck reassured us along the way that we were at a good place in our timeline for whichever piece(s) we were working on, it was nice to rely on someone with lots of experience in the matter since we were complete novices. We're so thrilled with all of our pieces, and received so many compliments on our invites, from the design to the paper quality. We're writing our thank you notes now, and I love looking at the design and being reminded of our wedding day!
Breck and the rest of the team at Sesame Letterpress exceeded all of our expectations in designing the perfect invitation suite for our wedding. From the start, their responsivenes...
s to our initial inquiry and the various follow-up discussions along the way was incredibly prompt. Although all of the existing designs showcased on their website are beautiful, they were more than happy to help us mix and tweak elements from several designs to arrive at exactly what we had in mind (including fonts, ink colors, printed icons, extra cards to be included, etc.). Breck was even able to find a beautiful old map of the Hudson Valley (where we held our wedding) to use as an envelope liner, which elevated the classiness and personality of the invitations in a major way.
I will definitely contact Sesame Letterpress if I ever need letterpress stationery in the future. Although I designed and printed our "day-of" stationery myself (simply for the sake of cost savings), the samples we looked at were similarly gorgeous.
HIGHLY RECOMMEND! I am happy I came across Sesame Letterpress in my search, I couldn't be happier. Not only are my invitations beautiful and exactly as I envisioned them, but the ...

We had an excellent experience working with Sesame Letterpress for our save the dates, invitation suite, and ceremony programs. We would highly recommend them.
The design process...
was super easy and efficient. It was great to begin brainstorming by visiting them in Brooklyn, but from then on, we found it convenient to work through the final details via email. Breck provided great guidance throughout the process and always responded promptly.
The high quality materials allowed us to go with a simple design and achieve an elegant and sophisticated final product.

The quality of the invitations and the letterpress were beyond our expectations, especially for the affordable pricing. We can not recommend Sesame Letterpress enough, and we will definitely be returning customers for any stationary we need for the wedding or otherwise!!!
The ladies at Sesame Letterpress were an absolute delight to work with - they are extremely professional, very responsive and most importantly extremely talented and creative! They...
were able to perfectly recreate our vision and tailor our suite exactly to fit our needs. The quality of their invitations is second to none - they only work with letterpress and every single piece is made by hand in their Brooklyn studio. We visited the studio to view paper and color samples but this is not completely necessary - most of our communication and proofing was done over email, which was very efficient. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them and am already looking forward to working with them again!
We were thrilled with our invitation suite! Breck and her team were incredibly helpful and responsive throughout the whole process - from design, wording, printing, to responding t...

Highly recommend!
We used Sesame Letterpress for our Save the Dates and our Wedding Invitations. While we did an in-person consultation for our Save the Dates, we coordinated most of the design proc...
ess for the Save the Dates, and then our Invitations by email. The team is very nice and professional. They took a ton of notes on what we wanted, and put together lots of design elements from different examples we liked and saw. The email process was a little bit slow, so definitely have patience if you go this route! The quality of the paper and printing is excellent. We got so many compliments on how unusual and elegant our invitation suite was. We wanted a modern black tie event, and the invitations definitely set the tone! We also used them for our favor tags which were stunning. All of our friends and family were instagramming photos of the favors during the wedding. A little pricey, but to support a small, woman owned business, it is worth it. The quality is superb. You won't regret it!
