What Our Clients Say About Working with Us

  • "As someone who’s worked in design and print production for over 10 years, I’ve always looked forward to creating my own wedding invitations—and Old North State Press made the experience better than I ever imagined. Their craftsmanship and passion for letterpress are unmatched. Chris Paul was amazing to work with—friendly, responsive, and clearly passionate about what he does. He helped bring my vision to life while staying on budget and meeting a tight timeline. The final invitations were stunning—timeless, personal, and truly felt like me. I’m so grateful to have found Old North State Press and will recommend them to everyone I know. Looking forward to working with them again!"

  • "We used Old North State Press for our wedding announcements, and loved them so much we immediately thought of Chris for our son's customized high school graduation announcements. Chris went the extra mile, from requesting permission to use the official college logo, to making sure he matched the exact university colors! Our announcements were personalized and fun and the quality is far superior to any announcement you would order on line for a very fair price."

  • “I am a designer working on the branding for an interesting local business in Raleigh, NC. Old North State Press did multiple jobs for this project — all of them were top-notch! I would recommend them to anyone who wants a high-quality print/design, something very tactile, and something that has a personal touch.”

    R Huston

  • “Old North State Press created custom invitations for two of my daughters and their weddings. After my first daughter's experience, we couldn't imagine partnering with anyone else for wedding number two! Chris is a craftsman who pours himself into his craft. He's detail oriented and eager to please. Plus he's a genuinely nice person. In the end, there was no drama, no missed expectations, no miscommunications, just execution on time as promised and a result that was beautiful and unique. Couldn't recommend anyone more strongly.”

  • "Old North State Press was an absolute lifesaver. I was in a serious time crunch with my wedding invitations, and they came through in the best way. Chris was amazing help - super knowledgeable, kind, and genuinely wonderful through the whole process. He walked me through the options, helped color match the ink, and got everything printed and cut to size beautifully on the same day. My letterpress invites turned out better than I could’ve imagined, and I’ve already gotten a bunch of compliments on them. Honestly, I don’t know what I would’ve done without them. Highly recommend!"
