It was a pleasure working with Kat. The final product was just what we wanted for our special day. Will definitely be coming back to her for future projects

Kat is AMAZING!!!! My wedding planner reached out to her with only 1 month left into my wedding; we were in need of some additional signage and stationary designed and printed for our September wedding. Of course we were feeling pressed for time and slightly panicked but Kat was very quick; provided us with a mock design and a quote in a very timely manner. I had a vision for what I wanted our design to look like, I gave her my inspiration/ideas and she made my vision come to life! We received SO MANY compliments about our signage and stationery that was used on the day of our wedding. The details of the signs and stationary truly added to all the details of our wedding.

Honestly, I can't say enough good things about working with Kat for our invitations. She seriously hit it out of the park with her responsiveness, ideas, and accommodating every request we had so quickly and efficiently. Her turn around time is incredible and the quality is beyond what I could have hoped for. We got so many compliments on our invites and still are receiving compliments as people continue to RSVP. Thanks so much Kat for making the invite process so easy and for creating the most elegant invites ever.

Such a cute stationary shop! Came here for baby shower invitations and Analia was so helpful throughout the entire process! We were able to pick our design, paper, font and invite style in the shop. She was amazing at communicating after and sending us different proofs until we were happy to send it to production. The process was simple, fast, and affordable. Would highly recommend and use this place again for other invitation needs.

Discovered this gem in Old Town Tustin. I needed help with my son's graduation announcements, a banner and photo postcards. Analia was so helpful every step of the way. I'm grateful how everything turned out. She worked her magic made everything look so beautiful and available to me in a short period of time. Thank you Analia for all of your help and making the process so easy from beginning to end. You are a true professional and so creative. I can't wait to work with you again in the future.

Phoned this business this morning when they opened and asked; Are you open? Do I need an appointment to come in? The young gal that answered the phone, laughed and said "The designer won't be in until later, maybe 1pm". This is a design shop. Why would I go here if the designer was absent and then be laughed at on the phone? Completely unprofessional. I will take my business elsewhere.

Sugar Press is absolutely the best place to get stationery, customized invitations, and other items. My son Gavin and his fiancee Michelle had planned a big wedding celebration for April. With covid, they postponed the big celebration until 2022, but still married and had a small reception at our house in 2021. Analia and her staff worked with us step by step. Their original Save the Date was created to look like a Anaheim Duck's ice hockey ticket. The second Sate the Date was created to look like a puck. Although the 2022 celebration will be formal, the reception was less formal, with an Anaheim Duck's theme. Analia helped create the stationery, customized face masks, signs, napkins, party gift tags, etc. We are so pleased with Sugar Press! I'm now a life-time customer!

Paper Mint Press is THE BEST! What a pleasure experience to work with! We designed our invitations down to every last detail with the exact colors and style we wanted, and it was BEAUTIFUL. Modern and clean! Thanks Kat! Quality of Service (CHECK), Responsiveness (CHECK), Professionalism (CHECK), Value (CHECK), and Flexibility (Absolutely CHECK). We were referred from Love Anne Joy and Kat from Paper Mint Press is amazing! From Day 1 she thoroughly went through the process and she is proactive and the communication with her was wonderful! 1. They made our Save The Dates, and we were absolutely pleased! Simple, yet modern and chic! Beautiful, creative, and high quality. 2. The Wedding Invitations -Beautiful, creative, and STUNNING. We were so excited, and it was exactly what we wanted, and probably more than we expected (which is absolutely amazing). Wax Seals? YES! Kat has them and it can be customized. We are obsessed. 3. Day of Accessories - what a DREAM! From the Signage (including "precautionary measures for COVID"), table numbers, menu, and the programs! We were over and beyond and it was totally worth it. Overall - Even during a pandemic, Kat was so patient and understanding with us. We genuinely enjoyed Paper Mint Press because she is THE BEST as it was a smooth planning process. Its challenging times for sure, but we would HIGHLY RECOMMEND Paper Mint Press as she will work with you and "flexible" is the key word to an amazing and excellent vendor to make your dreams come true! We would totally hire them again for ANY special occasion event! Thank you, Kat for being a part of our DREAM wedding. We are so humbled to have you part of the whole wedding journey (its like the "whole shabang" recipe)! Thank you so much for attending the day! We are so glad that we did not reschedule or cancel our wedding date and keeping the positive motivation! With love and mahalo - Michelle + Christian (10/10/2020)

I was a fan of Kat and Emil's work long before I was engaged, so when I did get engaged, I already knew who to go to for our wedding invitations. Planning a wedding can be stressful for couples, but with Kat and Emil's easygoing personalities and professionalism, they made this part easy. We had calls to talk about what we had in mind, but pretty much let Kat use her creativity to design it. We were having a travel-themed wedding and wanted to have a boarding pass style invitation suite. Kat absolutely NAILED IT with the design! She even hand-drew a map of the Bay Area with recognizable landmarks and also our venue and hotel. Kat even included a scannable QR code on the boarding pass where our guests can use their phone to access our wedding website...how cool is that?! The invitation suite itself is a unique art piece, so I had it framed and is hanging on our wall! I cannot express how happy I was to work with Kat and Emil, and to have them be a part of such an integral part of our special day. The unique invitations came out so beautiful and we received so many compliments from our guests! I hope to do more business with Paper Mint Press for our future life events!

I recently graduated from my university and decided to get some cards and banners made to celebrate, the prices were fantastic and the quality was even better. I loved this place and would order from them again! Martin L

This place is a JOKE. . Picked out wedding invitations and colors etc for my wedding theme..spent hours after hours there. PAID over 2400$ for top of the line crane stationary with gold gilding and envelopes, printing..etc.. placed my order 3 1/2 months before wedding date and guess what!?!? 6 weeks before I walk down the aisle... 2 weeks before the day they go in the mail. I get a call saying that my order will not come in for another 4 weeks! Leaving 2 weeks for guests to respond before our wedding date. This is seriously not the kid of company/ people/ owners you want to trust with something important to you. They then offered (LMAO) to get me different invitations and expedite them for me. Of course lower quality etc) and refund me the difference. This was a horrific experience. Unless your stopping in to buy themed invitations and printing them elsewhere.This is not the place to go. The experience was anything BUT sweet like sugar. Run for your lives beautiful brides to be. Seriously!

Kat is the lovely lady behind The Paper Mint Press and she is absolutely amazing and a total sweetheart! Her letterpress and calligraphy work is out of this world good!! I have gotten the pleasure of working with her twice now and she is so amazing at what she does! Her eye for detail and design is impeccable. She truly excels at what she creates and really goes above and beyond for her clients. You can tell she cares about every single detail that she touches and I cannot wait to work with her again!!

Kat is fantastic. I really don't have a creative eye for these types of things, so I put all my trust in her. She did not disappoint! I actually did not even meet her once, as I live out of the area and all of our communication was via phone/email, and my invitations were mailed to me. At first I was kind of nervous not being able to see samples of the specific suite I wanted in person, but her professionalism, organization, and eagerness to work with me really put me at ease. I came to her in a frenzy after being referred to her by my sister-in-law. I was stressing out about because I didn't realize how much there was to the invitation process, and I was in a time crunch. I kept looking for options on sites like Minted and Shutterfly but I wasn't convinced with anything I saw. I fell in love with one of the invitation suites from Paper Mint Press and we went from there. From my initial conversation with Kat to the time we received our invitations in the mail was just under a month - her responsiveness and superior service made the process so seamless and easy. She was so quick to send over proofs, was patient with any edits we requested, and offered genuine and helpful suggestions about postage, wording, design, etc. Upon receiving our invitations in the mail, we were so happy with how they turned out. They were absolutely stunning, great quality, and just like the proofs she sent. On top of that, everything was securely packaged and she left us a thoughtful handwritten thank you note. In the midst of a hectic wedding planning process, Kat truly made the task of wedding invitations so stress-free and I can't thank her enough for that.

We had an amazing experience with SugarPress. The owner is super nice and extremely helpful, always available and responsive. When you start designing your wedding invitation, it is hard to picture how they are going to look like. At SugarPress, you have access to plenty of other invitations (colors, sizes, fonts, etc) from which you can take inspiration. In this way, it was very easy to figure out what we wanted. We worked hard and in few months, we were able to design and print the beautiful invitations that reflected our style. All our guests fell in love with our invitations and we couldn't be more happy!

I was curious about this place when I needed some custom-made birthday party invitations made. I usually go to my place in Santa Monica, but the drive would have exhausted me by the time I got there. So, I took a chance and made an appointment with Analia at Sugar Press. It was closer in distance, and had positive reviews on Yelp. I met Analia on my scheduled appointment, and was promptly greeted warmly. The appointment lasted 2 hours, and the experience was amazing from beginning to end. What a selection.....seriously book an appointment. Much better this way. I found the most beautiful invitation to be custom made. I ordered them to be shipped to my home. It took 2 and a 1/2 weeks total to get them. Time varies per order. The only thing that wasn't done, my invitations came un-assembled. It was easy to do myself. When you order invitations, please specify them to be assembled and put together before you get them. Analia delivered excellent customer service overall. I have found my new go to closer to home. Huge selection of stationary and everything customizable. Book your appointment and plan ahead when getting custom-made invitations. Highly recommended.
