Critical: Value I signed up for a workshop with my daughter. We couldn't make it and they refused to provide a credit or the opportunity to attend another event. Staff was extremely rude.

I love this place. I will often bring my friends here when they visit because it's so cute. They have the best cards and other cute things around the store. Definitely recommend stopping in if you're in Inman Square.

I have been a fan of Albertine Press for years - it is my go-to for unique cards and small gifts - so I had to reach out when it came time to look at options for wedding invitations. Shelley was so easy to work with, even in the middle of pandemic! She outlined several options within our budget and after an initial (and very thorough!) Zoom call, we landed on a beautiful design. We were really appreciative of Shelley's guidance, particularly when we had to change our original wedding plans. Shelley gave us some great ideas on how to communicate everything in our invitation-turned-announcement.
And after a few rounds of feedback, we ended up with announcements and thank you cards that we couldn't be happier with! Our family and friends loved them too. I would highly recommend Shelley and her team. Albertine is worth every penny!
