			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Did you ever have something that was obviously much older than the newer models but you refused to get rid of because it worked so well? Some things were built in an age when craftsmanship and a long life were valued over inexpensive, up to date, expendable products.</p>
<p>Not that I do not love technology and the newest gadgets as much as the next person, but sometimes it’s hard to improve upon something that works well. Take printing for example. Computers, software programs, digital film and more efficient technologies in general have changed many aspects of the process. Most of the time these improvements are welcomed and greatly increase the realm of possibilities for presses and what they can do.</p>
<p>However, some things have not changed, and for good reason.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://invitationsbyajalon.com/img/blog-img/115-years-seal.jpg" alt="Sometimes Old Machines Work Best <br/ > Today’s Wedding Invitations <br/ > With Yesteryears Letterpresses Photo"  title="Sometimes Old Machines Work Best <br/ > Today’s Wedding Invitations <br/ > With Yesteryears Letterpresses Photo" /></p>
<p>Letterpresses still leave the finished product with an appearance and texture unmatchable by modern technologies. Using machines built over 50 years ago, these Original Heidelberg letterpresses generate an extra special character with each impression that adds an authentic value and quality to each invitation. In short, Heidelberg letterpresses simply cannot be beat.</p>
<p>When thinking about your wedding, why settle for anything less than handcrafted and custom letterpress invitation sets?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Every bride has a reason for choosing the location for their wedding. For some brides it is a dream since childhood and for others it is a place with a wonderful memory. I choose my wedding location for both reasons, it was a place close to my heart and holds so many memories. Since choosing the location for your wedding is so important, why not use the location of the wedding in the design for your letterpress wedding invitation set? These are my favorite invitations that were designed with location in mind:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Calliandra </strong>- This is a beautiful flower that grows down by Mexico and in the Southwest. This would be a great design for a wedding in that region of Northern America. <a href="http://www.invitationsbyajalon.com/lp/free_sample_calliandra.html" target="blank">Click here to order a free sample of this invitation design.</a></li>
</ul>
<p><a href="http://www.invitationsbyajalon.com/gallery/calliandra.html" target="blank"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-393" title="copy_set" src="http://www.invitationsbyajalon.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/12/copy_set-267x300.jpg" alt="Let Your Wedding Location Guide Your Invitation Design Photo" width="267" height="300" /></a></p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Key West </strong>- Our design was derived from the warm, sunny beaches of Florida. This design is great for destination weddings in the Bahamas or any other beach/island location. Click here to order a free sample of this invitation design. <a href="http://www.invitationsbyajalon.com/lp/free_sample_keywest.html" target="blank">Click here to order a free sample of this invitation design.</a></li>
</ul>
<p><a href="http://www.invitationsbyajalon.com/gallery/key_west.html" target="blank"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-389" title="group" src="http://www.invitationsbyajalon.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/12/group-300x268.jpg" alt="Let Your Wedding Location Guide Your Invitation Design Photo" width="300" height="268" /></a></p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Zinfandel </strong>- Wineries and the vineyards surrounding them are some of the most beautiful wedding venues in Northern California. Here in Sonoma Wine country, many wineries cater to weddings. Our Zinfandel design is perfect for a winery wedding with its delicate grapevine wreath surrounding a monogram. <a href="http://www.invitationsbyajalon.com/lp/free_sample_zinfandel.html" target="blank">Click here to order a free sample of this invitation design.</a></li>
</ul>
<p><a href="http://www.invitationsbyajalon.com/gallery/zinfandel.html" target="blank"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-390" title="set" src="http://www.invitationsbyajalon.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/12/set-300x300.jpg" alt="Let Your Wedding Location Guide Your Invitation Design Photo" width="300" height="300" /></a></p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Malulani</strong> &#8211; One of my mother&#8217;s close friends choose this letterpress wedding design for her wedding invitations. Her wedding was in Hawaii and this design was just perfect. <a href="http://www.invitationsbyajalon.com/lp/free_sample_malulani.html" target="blank">Click here to order a free sample of this invitation design.</a></li>
</ul>
<p><a href="http://www.invitationsbyajalon.com/gallery/malulani.html" target="blank"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-391" title="group1" src="http://www.invitationsbyajalon.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/12/group1-217x300.jpg" alt="Let Your Wedding Location Guide Your Invitation Design Photo" width="217" height="300" /></a></p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Dogwood</strong> &#8211; I recently learned that the dogwood is Virginia&#8217;s state tree. Our Dogwood design features hand-drawn dogwood blooms. This bloom is so unique and beautiful for any floral or spring theme. <a href="http://www.invitationsbyajalon.com/lp/free_sample_dogwood.html" target="blank">Click here to order a free sample of this invitation design.</a></li>
</ul>
<p><a href="http://www.invitationsbyajalon.com/gallery/dogwood.html" target="blank"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-392" title="dogwood-1" src="http://www.invitationsbyajalon.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/12/dogwood-1-250x300.jpg" alt="Let Your Wedding Location Guide Your Invitation Design Photo" width="250" height="300" /></a></p>
