Bay View Printing Company is a gem! I have worked with them several times to create unique pieces and gifts for our clients and they always deliver. For one of our projects, they helped us brainstorm ideas and then developed fantastic, original designs for a series for neighborhood notecards. With their letterpress printing process, the pieces are truly a work of art. Our clients love everything we send them from Bay View Printing. And it helps our brand stand out. The team at Bay View Printing Company will focus on your brand, your need and your vision to deliver creative excellence. And youll have fun working together too!

Had a great time here for Ink and Drink. We were able to bring in snacks and beverages to enjoy while creating our posters. What a cool and classic process.

I recently worked with Danielle and the team at Bay View and all I can say is amazing! I cant begin to explain how wonderful it was to work with such an incredible group of people who really care and love what they do. My fiance and I hired them to create our wedding invitations and when our wedding was postponed, Danielle easily transferred everything to our new date. I just couldnt wait to have her design something, so we asked her to create a Save Our New Date card and they were beyond words. Her incredible eye for detail left me speechless and I am in love with them! Not only was Danielle amazing to work with, she also felt like a friend I have known for ages! We havent even met in person, but she completely understood my vision and was so personable on the phone. I can not wait for Bay View to create my wedding invitations next year and I will continue to recommend them to everyone I know!

Used these guys for our wedding suite (Save the Dates, Invitations, Programs, Thank Yous) and I couldnt have asked for a better experience!Bay View Printing was always very prompt in their responses, open to a back-and-forth creative process to make exactly what I envisioned, no hitches! Their prices are very fair for the high quality of work they do and they are able to help come up with less expensive options to still create a stunning and memorable product to fit your budget.I HIGHLY RECOMMEND to anyone looking for personalized printing needs. They are wonderful and I will never look for another printer again!

I worked with Bay View Printing Co. to print a low run of invitations for a private event. Lucas gave me a tour the first time I stopped by the shop, which was really cool. Both Ashley and Lucas were great to work with and really understood my vision (which was a bit out there) – recommending papers and inks. They were really responsive, delivered on time, and did it all with beautiful craft! I couldnt have been happier with the product or experience.Bay View Printing Co. is a gem that Id highly recommend!

We used Bay View Printing Company for our wedding invitations and day of paper goods and could not have been more happy with our choice! From our first meeting with Danielle, we knew we were at the right place. Danielle and Ashley were so much fun to work with and amazing at their jobs! They listened to what we liked and created beautiful designs based on our comments. In addition, it is truly a collaboration as they take any feedback and keep creating until you are extremely happy! Everything came out amazing and beautiful. We received a ton of compliments on our invitations and all of the paper goods on our wedding day. I am so happy we used Bay View Printing Co and would use them again in a heartbeat!

Working with Ashley and her team at Bay View Printing Co. was such a unique experience! We got all of our paper goods for our wedding from them and couldn’t have asked for more.In their bio, they say, “No one knows your relationship, your love, your vision for your big day, like you do. It’s our job to sit down, listen to your story and bring that story to life on paper.” That is *exactly* what they do. From the beginning, Ashley listened to exactly what we wanted and the kind of vibe we wanted to go with for our wedding. We didn’t go the traditional ‘wedding suite’ route for our invitations and Ashley was more than accommodating to recommend the best way around that. She worked to make sure that we were comfortable and happy with every single detail on every single piece that we got from them and we ultimately couldn’t have been happier with the final outcomes of our products.From the ceremony programs, to the favor tags, to the laser-engraved wooden sign we had gifted to us, Ashley and her team had their hard-working hands on every inch of our wedding from start to finish. We got so many compliments from the first save the date to the final thank-you card and couldn’t have asked for a vendor to give us a more personalized stationary experience. They really do listen to every request and will work as hard as possible to make sure that the final product is exactly your relationship and your vision for the big day.

We did a “Drink &Ink” party, and it was beyond fabulous. Amazing people, unforgettable experience! We now live in Florida, and occasionally return to Milwaukee to celebrate special occasions with friends who are there. I was looking for a unique place for my daughter’s 16th birthday party that would be fun for a wide variety of age ranges, and BVP was a hit!!! 10 year old boy, teen girls, and adults were all enthralled and excited by the space, the process, and Lucas. One adult friend has decided his birthday party will be there as well, and our FB page is exploding with others asking all about it. Definitely do this, it’s an experience you just can’t replicate anywhere else- and you get to bring in your own food and beverages! So economical, AND you walk away with a cool poster you created yourself! And have extras to give as gifts! Totally a winner. Seriously, do it.

Disappointed with the bachelorette party experience. There was little information on the website, but we understood we would get to make 3 posters, which are of the same print. What wasnt disclosed was that you must all agree on only 3 colors as a group and there are limited images to use. There is also A LOT of downtime once you have chosen your poster, so get really to be bored, standing around in a dirty basement with no chairs.Fun! The positives were hearing the history of the shop and Lucas, who was helpful and cool. Unfortunately, this could be a better experience, but it seems like there was no thought put into actually making this a party venue. Its just a factory basically.

My husband and I chose to use Bay View Printing Co. for our wedding invitations and I truly cannot say enough positive things about our experience. From the initial meeting to the final product, we were beyond impressed with their professionalism, kindness, and creativity. The team always responded to emails in a timely, professional manner and we felt supported and in the loop throughout the entire process. The design process was a ton of fun - we really enjoyed being able to give our input and feedback as the invitations were being created, while also trusting the team to create something beautiful. Our invitations were a perfect reflection of us and our guests absolutely loved them. We are so thankful to have had such wonderful folks contribute to our special day!

I dont know how to put into words how appreciative and blown away I am with Bay View Printing and Ashley. I knew I wanted beautiful paper products for my wedding and did not have a clear vision on what I was looking for - after meeting with Ashley, going through her binder, and providing some details on my life with my now-husband - Ashley created the most amazing invitation, save-the-date, and other items for our wedding! Everything was exactly what I wanted - even though I couldnt picture what I wanted. Their space is wonderful. Everyone who works there is beyond helpful. I planned my wedding from Texas but used Milwaukee-based vendors for everything - her entire staff was understanding of my long-distance planning and worked closely with myself and my mom to ensure that everything was ready at appropriate times.Bay View Printing is truly a gem in Milwaukee.

We worked with Danielle at Bay View Printing Co and she was seriously AMAZING!!! She was SO friendly and really got what we wanted for our design. My fiance and I live across the country and its not easy planning a wedding from afar, but Danielle made it easy as pie when it came to our invites! She was flexible, and so quick to respond to my emails and change things with the design to exactly what we wanted. We were on a time crunch and Bay View Printing was not only able to get our invites done by the deadline, but a couple days early! Weve gotten multiple compliments on how elegant and beautiful our invites are. If you are hesitating, DONT! They will take great care of you and youll be so happy!!

Do not look any further and contract with Bayview Printing Co for all of your wedding paper needs! Danielle and Ashley were wonderful to work with, and completely nailed it with our wedding suites. They provide a unique and highly creative experience, happily worked through rounds of revisions, and ended up with invites that are show stopping gorgeous. I have been receiving compliments from everyone, even friends that are brides too saying its the most beautiful invitation they have ever seen :) We are from Chicago and travelled to Milwaukee to pick them up and have a fun weekend away, and they gave us a tour of their shop as well as their printing process. Will absolutely use them in the future for other printing needs! Thanks for making this part of the wedding planning process flawless.

OH MY LANTA! There are not enough words to describe how pleased my fiancé and I are with our wedding invitations by Bay View Printing Co. With my fiancés graphic design background, it was important to find a wedding invitation vendor that met his standards...Bay View didnt just meet those standards, they exceeded them! Working with Danielle was an absolute dream. She listened to what we wanted and turned it into something we never thought was possible. Our guests have been gushing over the details of our invitations, one couple even said it was the most elegant invitation they have ever received. Thank you for everything. My fiancé and I will definitely be using Bay View in the future! :)

We hired Ashley and her team for wedding invitations as well as a bunch of day-of paper goods, and we couldn’t be more thrilled with how everything turned out. Ashley was organized, responsive, and attentive to our wishes during every step of the process. Ashley and the other folks at BVPC are beyond talented and the letterpress on our invitations and programs gave them a unique, gorgeous depth that you hardly ever see on stationary anymore. We received many compliments on the invitations, with at least two people commenting that they were the prettiest they had ever seen. The invitation design ended up being so creative and stunningly beautiful that we had her replicate all of it on our program covers as well as the reception welcome poster, and part of the design on our thank-you cards, with another design element on our reception place cards. We can’t wait to frame the welcome poster—it’s definitely something we’ll enjoy for years to come. We loved how she coordinated every one-of-a-kind detail, and appreciated how responsibly she moved us along our timeline. She did a terrific job following up with us on each step, and when things hit a momentary snag because of a miscommunication on our part, she helped resolve it quickly and graciously—what amazing customer service! All the way from consultation, through design and proofing, and to the final pick-up, Ashley exceeded our expectations and delighted our guests. Two thumbs up and five stars for sure!

Cool print shop. Get your letterpress invitations or take a class to make your own poster and get an idea of what letter press is all about. Great folks and a cool welcoming space.
