What a delight this place is! I came in to have some presents gift wrapped, naturally I had no idea what I was doing or what I wanted. Thankfully, they are all very good at that sort of thing.
I couldn’t have asked for better service! Very sweet, so helpful and really reasonably priced.
They have a new customer in me.
Do yourself a favor and check them out for any gift wrapping, cards, or any invitations you may need.
You’ll be glad you did!

Ella from Lion in the Sun was an incredible pleasure to work with. She worked at the speed of light and was highly responsive, she was creative and detail-​oriented, and, perhaps most importantly, you could just see her smile through her emails. Our printed materials are one of our favorite things about the wedding and we have Lion in the Sun to thank! Highly, highly recommend.

I’ll start by saying I loved our invitations, the final product was great! However, communication was a bit difficult in the beginning. Days would go by. It took multiple attempts for drafts, but only because she kept forgetting what we said. And when we finally got them, we realized (thankfully early) our dark envelopes rubbed off on our ivory invitations, leaving smudge marks. So I had to go buy some tissue paper to put in between. Lastly, the advice we got on to address our black envelopes was terrible, in which we found out the hard way. I expected more from a place that is anything but cheap.

+ Light and airy little shop with large windows, white shelves and light colored wood floors.
+ Stocked with beautiful and unique cards and misc trinkets and gifts.
— Unfortunately those cards and little trinkets are super expensive (ie. $ 6 avg. for cards) so this isn’t a store I’d frequent often.

They have a lot of cute cards, notebooks, and stationary. The guy that was working was super friendly and very helpful.
The cards were a bit expensive but the quality is definitely better than a typical drugstore/​supermarket card, so you get what you pay for. I bought a small spiral notebook and the price was pretty reasonable.

Got my wedding invitations here– they were spectacular and the one on one service makes the extra costs worth it

We worked with Melinda on all of our October 2014 NYC wedding paper goods including save the dates, invitations, ceremony programs, escort cards, menus, cigar matches and favors. We could not have been happier with the level of service and quality we received! Our Bella Figura wedding invitations were absolutely stunning and received so many compliments on how elegant and chic they were! Melinda is fantastic to work with and is extremely creative providing you with great suggestions in line with your vision! She is truly knowledgable in the paper industry and we were lucky to have been recommended to her. We also used the in house calligrapher who also did an amazing job with all calligraphed items keeping them consistent and beautiful! The shop in Brooklyn is super cute and provides you with a large selection of samples and books to choose from! Definitely recommended for all of your wedding and paper needs!

This place is amazing! I’ve been coming here for the past three years and I’m yet to be disappointed! I walked in 30 mins prior to closing with two hands full of gifts to wrap and they welcomed me with open arms as if they were just starting their shifts! Quite simply… Great people, great work ethic, and great product!

We loved the fact that our wedding invitations looked like you had found them in your grandmother’s trunk in the attic! I’m not saying they looked dirty and old, but vintage, carefully crafted, and handmade. The people from Lion in the Sun (especially Danielle) were extremely helpful and efficient, which I was very thankful for since I was planning the wedding mostly from Spain.

Very cute card /​paper store. Must go for cards and little knick knacks.
I always check here first for any paper products

If you like little boutique shops specializing in paper goods… this is your store.
I did find some cute things in here. The prices however are not so cute.
I still paid and reasoned with myself…“well this is park slope. well I won’t be able to find this elsewhere…“
Hopefully my gift receiver will enjoy this gift.

I can’t say that I experienced the wedding invitation services at Lion in the Sun, so my review is solely based on the cards and trinkets in the front part of the store. All in all, Lion in the Sun is a great place to wander into if you have a spare 15 minutes.
The selection of greeting cards was adorably quirky. They ranged from $ 5 — $ 7 bucks a pop, which admittedly is steep. That said, if you’re straying from the Hallmark specials, then you’re probably buying for someone special who’s worth the extra cost.
The store also had one table solely devoted to all things alcohol-​related — book of whiskey cocktails, balsa wood coasters, etc.

This shop is kind of funny. They have an arts $ craft section in the back. I assume they do courses and maybe kiddy entertainment there. The selection of cards seems very arty. None of the usual cards you get in book shops and so on. I love browsing through the shop, but most of the time I think there prices are too expensive and the selection is too small.

We LOVED working with Lion in the Sun to design our invitations and day-​off materials (table numbers, signs, etc). I cannot say enough positive things about their team and would recommend them to anyone planning a wedding! Their work is BEAUTIFUL.
We had the pleasure of working directly with Sarah, who worked with us personally on every step of the process. When one of the elements of our invitation set just wasn’t looking «right» after a round of edits, she sat with us to work through our concerns in person. She was not only patient, but genuinely enthusiastic to come up with a few new designs for us to choose from.
I also want to give a nod to their in-​house line, Post Script Brooklyn. It was perfect for our Brooklyn wedding and we loved that we could customize every element — and that our invitations were designed right in our own borough!

My fiancé and I came today to checkout wedding invitations. We were only intending to browse but fell in love with the selection and sat down for a formal design meeting.
Sarah was more than amazing. She was inspirational, hilarious, and made the experience one to remember. By the time we left we had designed our full wedding stationary set, patterns and designs, and name seal. Sarah relieved a lot of stress for us, and more importantly she made us extremely excited and confident in our selection.
We were recommended Lion In The Sun by a very close friend, and would like to pass the great recommendation along to anyone in search of a quality stationary boutique with helpful and friendly staff.

If you are looking for a truly beautiful, unique and NY-​centric wedding invitation, look no further. The selection at Lion in the Sun is vast and you will have a hard time making a decision (you’ve been warned!).
While the invites are not cheap (hello — is anything cheap when it comes to wedding planning?), there are ways to cut costs and the staff is happy to help you do so.
They are busy on weekends, so I recommend going during a lunch break or after work for a more one-​on-​one experience with a sales clerk.
Walking into this store also single-​handledly saved my wedding, as the owner is quite in touch with NYC wedding planning, and she warned me that my venue (:cough: Bridgewaters: cough) had abruptly gone out of business and they were not telling brides until one week before their wedding.
Anyway, I digress … you should definitely check this place out for a personable, enjoyable wedding invitation purchasing experience.

Excellent mom-​and-​pop type stationary store. I buy all my cards here because they are of a high quality, unique presentation, appear handmade, detailed, nostalgic and show (or at least I hope they show) that I took the time to think about the person in selecting the right card rather than going to Ride Aide and get a non-​funny, mass-​produced hallmark card.
They even make custom invitations, have notebooks and gift wrapping paper etc. However, the cards are expensive $ 4.50 to $ 10.50 a card… eek! And they need more different-​sex wedding cards, they have a plethora of same-​sex wedding cards and I am not sure why (political statement or just left over) which is frustrating because you have limited options.
BOTTOM LINE: wonderful, detailed handmade cards, but expensive!!! slim pickens for different-​sex wedding cards.

I love stationery stores — an avid card sender, crafty wrapping paper appreciatory and notecard enthusiast, I could get lost in a store like this for hours. And have!
The selection is great — and there are some truly beautiful gems in here.
However, I will say that the atmosphere is extremely snooty. I’ve been in the store a dozen times and have never been greeted upon entering, or acknowledged when leaving — even though I pretty much purchase something every time I’m there.
I took my mom to the boutique when she was in town visiting and she had the exact same reaction. I think «frigid» was the adjective she used to describe the woman behind the counter — who glared at us upon entering, did not smile or engage us at all — even during our purchase.
A good store — but for the atmosphere and customer service, I’ll go to Skardey Cat first, every time.

It’s a cool little boutique, but the atmosphere inside is a touch snooty in a very Park Slope kind of way.
Also, they add a mark up to local products that are often already expensive (ie Campbell Raw Press) so I would definitely try to purchase items directly from the company when possible.

If you are walking by this store and you suddenly remember you need a birthday card or something, then this should meet your needs. They have a small but cute selection of cards and they are around $ 5, which I guess isn’t too bad.
However, if you are just looking for a card, your best bet is to hold your breath, run in, grab a card and try to get someone to ring you up quickly (which can be an issue) so you can get out of there ASAP!
If you don’t, you’ll be subject to the nauseating cooing sounds that all those engaged people in the back are making as they pick out their «save the dates» and wedding invitations. I mean, come on! Half of you are going to end up divorced anyway so does it really matter if the invites are eggshell vs. cream? Sheesh!
(note: The fact that I still have not gotten over my breakup almost six months ago has in no way colored my opinions)
