Lion In The Sun Of Park Slope

I came to Lion In the Sun after a number of frustrating experiences with some other stationary shops who left my fiance and me to our own devices after pointing unenthusiastically towards their books of wedding invitations. At Lion in the Sun we found informed, thoughtful, and creative invitation specialists who provided us with an education about paper, process, and design. Lion in the Sun has a variety of invitations from boutique letterpress designers to less expensive, and as beautiful, alternatives. Our invitation specialist worked with us through the whole process, from ordering through to production, guiding and making great suggestions along the way. Finding the right invitation that set the tone for my wedding was a priority for me. The women at Lion in the Sun understand this and know just how to approach showing a great selection of invitations to their brides.

I had to add my review, because you can't say enough good things about Lion in the Sun. We had our wedding invitations done there, and they are beautiful. Melinda walked us through hundreds of options, using her keen eye and ear to help us tune into what we were looking for. We were even able to incorporate our custom graphic design with the exact ink, font, paper, envelope, etc. She had a great knowledge of all her products, and found a match to our vision. The end result was EXACTLY what we imagined. Her helpful suggestions about the whole invitation process were invaluable.

I got my wedding invitations done here. I cannot say enough good things about this place. They understood what I wanted, they had a wonderful selection including local artists, they were extremely helpful with wording and other etiquette questions - everything was seamless and flawless from my perspective. The invitations are beautiful. They even give you a glue stick when you pick them up to seal all the envelopes.

I am planning a wedding and I was so relieved to find Lion in the Sun! They were extremely friendly and helpful in that they were able to tell me when I should send save the dates out, when I should send invitations out, and provide tons of sample designs and language for our invitations. They were happy to spend time with me and even had the exact design I wanted and could not find at other stores! I am very excited about doing all of my wedding printing through them!

I just can't say enough about Lion in the Sun. While looking for invitations for my upcoming wedding, I found other big name outfits cold and really impersonal. ('The books of invitations are over there,' was the best involvement I got from staff at those competitors.) But not so at Lion in the Sun. When my fiance and I walked in to the shop -- on a busy weekend, no less -- we were greeted by a staff member who worked with us tirelessly to talk through just what it is we were looking for from our invites. She brainstormed ideas, working with us to create custom invitations that we didn't even know were possible. She guided us through every detail, from wording to typeface, and suggested several ways we could get the invites of our dreams in our price range. All in, the owner and staff at Lion in the Sun spent about 4 1/2 working directly with me to get everything just right. With the blase attitude of vendors in New York's wedding industry, Lion in the Sun is a gem, not just for their gorgeous invitations but most of all for their customer service. I'm thrilled to recommend them.
