Bella Figura

Bella is amazing at everything they do. They customize all of their materials so you can really make your invitations and day of materials unique. Mariana was so responsive and helpful throughout the process, and they send over a number of proofs for you to review so you can continue to tweak some of the fonts, wording, and designs. We loved working with them! More...

I’m very pleased with my invitations. They worked with me every step of the way to make sure they were perfect and explained each step very thoroughly. Only complaint I have is that I never received a thank you note from them for their business I would think for someone in the business of producing thank you notes that the least they could do was send a thank you card - or even an email - for my business at the end of the entire transaction. Otherwise I am happy. More...

My husband and I used Bella Figura for our wedding invitations and for our placecards on our wedding day, and they all came out beautifully! We used a design they had to do our own take on it, and got to select everything from fonts, to colors, to how we wanted our meal choices picked. Mariana at the NYC Upper East Side Store was very very helpful, and Racheal, our designer was very quick to turn everything around! Beautiful invitations that we are still getting compliments on!

Bella Figura was such an incredible vendor. They took our vision and executed it to perfection. We wanted something unique around our peacock theme and we were blown away by the result. They can be expensive but for what I wanted I think it was worth it. We also were able to get a deal (order 75 invites and get 25 free). I also love that they used recycled paper for their invitations. Mariana Stein was SUPER patient with us! More...

I had such a wonderful experience getting our wedding invitations with Nancy at Bella Figura! I was able to mix and max pieces from different lines to get the exact look I wanted, and everyone said they were the most gorgeous invitations they had ever seen! Nancy was so helpful and thoughtful, and made a point to help it be as cost-effective as possible, even reminding me to make an order during a week with a special promotion (and champagne!) at the elegant storefront! I had considered just making my invitations online, but having the guidance of an expert not only made my life easier... it also made our invitations impeccable! Worth every penny! More...

It took us a while to find the right wedding stationery company but when we finally found Bella Figura they were everything we were hoping for and more!

Their designs are truly elegant without being stuffy or sparse—really delicate, creative, vibrant, and with a lot of variety and options to customize. The designs and papers are extremely fine quality and have a really special look.

We started with a sample we saw in the store and customized it for font style and color. We ended up with the most beautiful floral invitations with subtle rose gold touches on oversize thick paper and envelopes with rose gold liners. The invitations feel elegant but also creative and unique. The pricing is on the higher end, but for what they offer it is truly much more reasonable than comparable companies, which, from my initial search, charged far more for far less. I am even more excited about these invitations than I even imagined and I know they will make an amazing introduction for our guests to what we hope our wedding will be.

We worked with Su-Queen who was absolutely amazing in every way. She spent a lot of time answering our questions and giving thoughtful guidance—she’s really an expert in this, both regarding design and etiquette (which designs make sense together or not, options for wording for the invitations etc). She was extremely attentive but also gave us time to look through and think about the samples on our own to make our own decisions. The coordination of the shipment/delivery was seamless as well, as was the responsiveness to emails as we were sorting through our designs and our final order. The combination of the amazing people who work here like Su-Queen and the stunning quality and range of the invitations themselves make this place truly special. More...

I worked with Bella Figura to design dinner menus and escort cards. I found an example of a modern menu with a very specific look and asked the artist at Bella Figura to match it.

We really liked the look of letterpress invitations, and were happy to visit Bella Figura’s flagship store on the UES. Our first appointment with Mariana, we spent about an hour going through all kinds of possibilities for invitations, save the dates, envelopes, liners, etc. Our selections were typography based, and we were able to modify their original designs from different lines to create our invitation suite. Everything arrived beautifully boxed with envelope moistener (which we realized after 175 save-the-dates). We had one hiccough with our invitation envelopes, which had a printing error in the zip code. I was worried we would have to wait the full additional production time to receive the corrected envelopes, as they had a special liner, but Bella Figura printed and shipped them immediately for us at no additional expense. Their proactive customer service and attention to the client is the best reason to work with Bella Figura. We later added to the suite with brunch invites, escort cards, and menus, and loved having everything match on our big day. More...

Bella Figura did our wedding invitations and we couldn’t be happier. We received so many compliments on these invitations. One of our guests said they were the nicest invitations he’d ever seen, and that says something coming from a large family with lots of weddings! The staff were helpful at every stage of the process, from choosing styles and fonts and colors to doing the final proofs.

I never thought I would get so excited about a paper product!

I had an idea in mind about colors and design for my invitations, and Bella Figura made it happen. I went with my mother one day, and they were welcoming and immediately showed interest in what I was imagining. When knowing that we wanted to stay local, the staff offered and took us on a tour of the entire facility. When they didn't have an exact design I wanted (hops for a beer wedding), their artist took a different layout and custom added them in for us. The letterpress quality is impeccable.

They emailed quickly and often with proofing, always quick to adjust changes. The final products took my breath away, and I have received so many compliments on our invitations.

Wonderful to work with! More...

Overall I had a great experience with the NYC store. I worked with Lynda and Mariana (mostly Mariana). I liked the one on one attention I received in the store. They had a great showroom and plenty to choose from (but not an overwhelming amount). They were patient and responsive via email. The invitations were packaged beautifully and delivered in mint condition. I loved my invitations- the quality was superb. One issue I found was that the ink from the stamp on my RSVP card transferred slightly to my accommodations card. Not something I was anticipating and I wish I had received this tip. I tried working with one of the artists in the Syracuse location to create a custom monogram but it didn’t entirely work out. I don’t think this was necessarily her fault though. If anything she was quick and responsive. Mariana sent a nice card congratulating us after the wedding. I do think they need to work on their model a bit and offer better packages/discounts. I wasn’t looking for much honestly but Bella was the one and only vendor that did not throw in something extra for me or provide some sort of discount for my business. More...

Given the tremendous amount of options and invite suites they offer, we had a pretty small order and I was a flip-flop customer when it came to the options. However, throughout the process we felt we were treated as if we were their number one client. I spoke to them over a multitude of ideas over the phone, they were incredibly responsive over e-mail and let us look at a variety of proofs before we finally made our decision.

It's a shame you can only see the proofs via PDF since, if you chose colors other than the sample or have them make you a custom one, it does make it difficult to truly envision your invites without seeing all colors on a physical invite. I would imagine if we did foil, the PDF would be useless. However, I'm not sure if there's any better way to deal with that, given that they have to set up the rollers for each print job. Since they recently opened up a shop in New York, that may be a great opportunity to see their designs in person a bit easier.

If you start early and have an idea of which invite you want, I would recommend signing up for their mailing list as they give 10% discount for a designer each month, which, if it happens to match up with your tme-line, helps a lot.

We spent months looking at invite designers and I would definitely recommend Bella Figura due to their classy designs, quality, and customer service.

We just finished our order and I can't wait to receive them in the mail! More...

Their invitation, card stock and ink samples were very helpful to have during the design process. Their customer service was also excellent and when I wrote to them about a design that I loved but that did not fit in my budget they were able to steer me toward a slightly smaller invitation size and 1-ply instead of 2-ply printing which ended up looking just as great and fit my budget perfectly. The invitations arrived right on time and came in a beautifully presented box with thoughtful details such as a moistening stick to seal the envelopes. I was very pleased with the end result and found their website and customer service very easy to navigate remotely. More...

I absolutely LOVED working with Bella Figura!! They made me want to go into the letterpress business: they are creative, helpful, supportive and their products are stunning.

I found Bella Figura after parting ways with a local invitation lady. After feeling very discouraged and frustrated, I spoke with Jessica, who immediately put a smile on my face. Speaking with her reminded me that planning a wedding (though challenging at times) was something to be excited about! I had already fallen in love with one of their designs, so the process of choosing the design was easy. Jessica also helped make sure our wording was correct and made sense and helped me with some resources for other ideas (doing my own envelope liner, for instance). Then, I worked with Lindsy, a graphic designer. She put together two proofs with fonts that we were able to choose. Lindsy not only gave me her honest opinion about the designs, but also took my ideas and put them into the design! It was so easy to work with her!

Our invitations arrived in the most beautiful package -- I almost didn't want to send them out! We chose to go with the heavier paper for the invitation, and the thinner paper for the other inserts. The weight of them was perfect and the feel of the paper was very cottony and luxurious. I have received numerous compliments from guests about the invitations -- not only the design, but also how the paper felt!

My biggest concern with invitations from the start was cost. I initially thought Bella Figura was out of our price range. If you look closely at (and decide not to have) the add-on options on the Bella Figura website (which lets you price out the options), you can design and create beautiful invitations that aren't astronomical in price (we ended up doing our own envelope liners and flat printed the envelopes). I would love to see a non-letter press option for envelope printing, but it also makes sense that they are a letter-press company (doh). More...
