80th Birthday

I ordered the story of my houses for my dad. The 3 houses he had lived in. There was constant communication from Letterfest , which meant I got the houses in the order I wanted, exactly how I liked, with no qualms at all. When it arrived I was so pleased. I had ordered the oak frame and it set it off beautifully. When my Dad opened it, he loved it, and pored over all the details that had been included. Not only a big hit with him, but the guests at his party were intrigued and impressed with such a novel, but also thoughtful and personal idea. Not easy to find for someone that’s 80. I’m very very pleased. Also when the proofs were sorted it ran into me being on holiday and I requested that Letterfest delayed dispatch until I was back home. They did this with no hint of it being an inconvenience. I would highly recommend this company to any of my family or friends..
