Custom
Lunalux specializes in luxurious letterpress-printed paper goods. Since 1993, we have been working with clients near and far to create custom-designed wedding invitations, personal stationery, and business cards & stationery. Whether you’re looking for a deluxe wedding invitation suite, a classic business stationery system, or a modern calling card, we’d love to work with you to make your paper dreams come true! We can adapt designs from our vast portfolio to suit your needs, or develop a unique new design just for you.
Using vintage letterpress-printing presses, keen design sensibilities and modern photopolymer plate technology, we create paper goods that delight the senses. A raised printing surface is inked and pressed into the paper, leaving an impression that wows both the eyes and the fingertips. The tactile quality of letterpress printing captures people’ s attention, and conveys a sense of high-quality and craft that is often absent from most modern offset-printed ephemera.
Some of our best work is highlighted in our blog. You can browse though the archives to read about invitations, personal stationery, calling cards and business stationery that we’ve designed and printed here in our Loring Park studio. If geography permits, we encourage you to visit us on the edge of downtown Minneapolis (click here for studio hours & directions) to see the presses in action and explore our sample albums. We do our best to show and tell on our website, but nothing compares to seeing the finished work in person.
If you have a specific project in mind, please call us at 612-373-0526 to schedule a consultation with our designer Jenni Undis.

- Design + Print: edged business cards
Photographer Josh Hackney came to Lunlaux with an existing logo for his business, and asked us to develop a memorable tag/business card. We agreed right away that the composition should be very simple, and the wow factor would come from the use of luxurious materials.

One of the best parts of my job is that it affords me the opportunity to meet and work with wonderful people.

This blustery winter weather is bringing me down. So I’ve been self-administering a little paper therapy, sifting through stacks of summery samples to lift my spirits. The most effective treatment thus far? Adrienne and Matthew’s vibrant fuchsia and tangerine wedding stationery. This was such a big project for us, I’m not sure why it didn’t [...]

Luanne and Roger wanted a very simple invitation for their at-home wedding reception last month.

Working with that warm color palette, we [...]

Have you noticed that the Lunalux blog has been kinda quiet lately? Me too. The main reason: I took several weeks off from work in October because my mom passed away. I come from a great big family, so we all huddled together for a while to take care of each other. There is, indeed, [...]
- Design + Print: earth-friendly wedding stationery
Leigh found Lunalux while searching the internet for wedding stationery that is both sophisticated and earth-friendly. She wanted invitations printed on 100% recycled paper but didn’t want them to look crafty. It was a fun challenge to work with a long-distance client who had very specific needs! Leigh found a shower invitation on our website [...]

I’ve worked with Lucas Saugen in a variety of ways over the past four years. As a rollergirl, I’ve submitted to his photographer’s gaze in various derby-related photo shoots. And he availed himself of our services a couple years ago when we printed his bare-bones business cards, which he rubber-stamped with his trademark red star. [...]
