Toot toot!



We aren't always the best about tooting our own horn when it comes to Gus & Ruby press and praise. But, dang it if we aren't proud of some of the fab shout-outs we've received over the years. We hemmed and hawed for far too long and dragged our feet collecting PDFs and links; but after all that, and help from our dear pals at Rumbletree, we are SO excited to finally have our press page LIVE on our website! Woo hoo!!

Check. It. Out.

So long, 2013!

It's hard to believe that it is New Year's Eve once again. Didn't 2013 just start?

2013 was quite a doozy, if I do say so myself. From saying goodbye-for-now to dear Liz, to welcoming fabulous new members of the Gus & Ruby family (hello Todd & Byrdy!), from moving into a new print studio and all the bumps & warts that come with growing our small business to all the excitement and joy of growing a baby (hooray for mamas-to-be Whitney & Laura!), it's been a year of big change and growth for all of us. And through it all, we saw time and time again how blessed we are to have such an incredible community of support and guidance. It hasn't all been easy, but darn-it if we haven't made the best of it and laughed a lot along the way this past year.

2013 also meant a good bit of exciting achievements and recognition for our custom design work including several publications in national magazines (Martha Stewart Weddings Magazine and Brides Magazine, to name a few) and well-read blogs such as Grey Likes Weddings, Style Me Pretty, and Oh So Beautiful Paper.



Perhaps the biggest honor this year was being named the 2013 Best of Boston winner for wedding stationery. We were thrilled and honored to be recognized with such a prestigious award and in the company of many other fabulous vendors in the weddings, arts, shopping, food and service industries.

Yes, 2013 was a doozy - but a good doozy. The kind of wild ride where you get off at the end and your hair is all messed up, you can't quite catch your breath and your knees a little wobbly - but you have a huge smile on your face. Throughout it all, we have been and remain so thankful for you all and we are so excited to see what is in store for 2014. We just know it's going to be great!

Wishing you and yours a fabulous (and safe) New Year's Eve and a happy, healthy, peaceful and laughter-filled 2014.

Cheers!

Gus & Ruby Letterpress in Martha Stewart Weddings magazine!!


Happy Monday, peeps! Hope you all had a lovely holiday weekend. We have some more VERY exciting news to share today: Gus & Ruby Letterpress is featured in the current issue of Martha Stewart Weddings magazine!!


We were absolutely thrilled to have our beautiful, calligraphy-based Wenham Suite chosen for the stationery feature in this Real Weddings issue. The collection, originally designed and printed in classic navy and silver for an incredible couple this past summer, was chosen by the editors to be featured in the "Summer" section of their seasonal stationery story. We adapted the palette of this letterpress suite to bold raspberry and light pink and kept the original features including a raspberry and blind printed belly band, custom gate-fold folio and stunning calligraphy by Elizabeth Porcher Jones. It's timeless and romantic and we couldn't be happier to see it on the glossy pages of MSW among work from some other very talented designers.
