Way overpriced. Customer service is seriously lacking. The rep behind the counter was friendly but Jane was very indifferent throughout the entire process and it left a bad taste in my mouth.

I used Lion in the Sun for all of my stationary related needs for my wedding. From the save the dates, to personalized stationary and to the invitations themselves, I couldn’t be happier with the final results. I worked with Anna who is responsive and knowledgeable, and Cathy’s calligraphy is gorgeous. Both the design and addressing process went extremely smoothly, and the designs that they offer are beautiful. There’s a nice selection of modern and traditional choices. I would recommend them to anyone!

First let me say the final product was great… but…
The person that was helping us (Jane) was not customer friendly. She acted like she was doing us this big favor by being there in the first place to help us.
Plus she would send rude emails with ALL CAPS and multiple !!! like she was yelling at me and that I was bothering her.
At some point she told me that my family and I were notorious for making changes when in actuallity — they weren’t making the changes we requested in the first place! So we kept having to go back and ask for the same changes again. And then she would tell me that we would need to be charged for additional changes!
We even came in on a Sunday at 5 (they close at 5:30) just to look at one thing and she made a comment about how we were there «kind of late». Really? Because if you don’t want to help customers at 5 — then don’t be open at 5…
Like I said, the final product was great but the person that helped us was not friendly and made the process a lot more difficult than it needed to be.
Maybe if you work with a different sales person, you would have a different experience?

You want paper? They got paper — tons and tons of paper.
The place to pick up paper stock for invitations, thank you’s or whatever other reason strikes you.
Clueless about how to do invitations? They’ll sit with you and take care of all the details and print them professionally.
Great place to browse even if you don’t need anything.
