They have expertise in bar and bat mitzvah customs, offering a 20 percent discount and more than 10 different bar and bat mitzvah invitation albums to choose from.

They also have more than 75 party and wedding albums for invitations. Personalized service is given for brides.

Once the invitations are done, wedding decorating is available, including name boards, sign-in board, candleholders, balloon arches and custom balloon centerpieces.
