what sets us apart
01. responsiveness
When Loly was planning her own wedding (before founding the Little Postage House), she designed her own invitations and worked with a local printer. The printer was a super nice guy, but turned out to be very unresponsive and unreliable. He ended up disappearing several times, for weeks on end. After talking to her friends, Loly realized that this was a common problem in the industry. When she founded the Little Postage House, Loly made a commitment to always be open, online and to make the wedding process a little bit easier and fun! This means that we are always open, online. You can email or message us on social media and, chance are, you are generally going to get a response right away!
02. in-house printing
We are obsessed with the details and proudly admit that we are control-freaks, so we print all of our invitations in our studio. This sets us apart from the majority of other stationers who outsource their printing to third-parties, sometimes abroad. In fact, it is rare to work with a stationery company that only designs the work, but that also print it.
Why do we print in-house? Well, it gives us absolute control over the details and ensures that our invitations meet our high standards. It also always us to send your pictures throughout the process, so that you can see everything real-time as it is being made in our studio.
To see behind the scenes, just follow us on Instagram.
03. mailing expertise
This is another aspect of our services that is unique! As one of the original vintage postage curators in the country, we know postage!
Not only do we design, print, and assemble invitations, but we also provide postage curation services and mailing services! So, you don't have to worry about making sure that you have the right postage amount or looking for postage! You don't have to worry about the differences between "hand-cancelling," "hand sorting" or "non-machinable" services at USPS. We have sent tens of thousands of invitations over the years. So, we know postage and we know how to mail your invitations!
