Hearty Greetings

Hearty Greetings was founded in 2012 by Laura Beyer. A snail mail enthusiast and lifelong reader, she combined her passion for the written word and love of print to create Hearty Greetings. Laura has more than 20 years of printmaking experience. Her work has been collected by esteemed organizations throughout the area, including colleges and universities, private collectors, and the Detroit Institute of Arts.

Hearty Greetings is a letterpress company founded on experience. Decades of printing in academic, professional, and commercial studios are behind the craftsmanship to print timeless materials for a modern audience. The studio equipment is assembled largely from the Metro Detroit area from retired printers and hobbyists. Since most printing presses used in a contemporary letterpress business haven’t been manufactured in 50 to a 100 or more years, each piece is vintage and has its own history of operators and use.

At Hearty Greetings we believe the beauty of letterpress printing sets the tone for your perfect wedding day. We love the work we do because of the details: the perfect paper weight and texture, archival inks to match any theme as well all the dreamy finishes. Have something extra special in mind? Let’s chat. At Hearty Greetings we thrive on collaboration and are up for the challenge. As an artist-run business we have decades of experience finding creative solutions and making visionary ideas come to life.

We can help you design your stationery products, or we can create items of your own design. We offer an array of specialty colors, modern and antique type cast fonts and graphics, as well as various artisanal paper options for cards and envelopes. The joy of seeing print on paper is exciting every single time. We are passionate about connecting with others through custom design and making artisanal work that holds a special place in people’s lives. We infuse history, creativity, and personality into every printed piece we make.
