Printing Premium Wedding Invites for Esther & Hayden: A Touch of Elegance
Esther and Hayden's wedding is a celebration of love and style, where every detail holds significance. At Colourcraft, we were honoured to be entrusted with the task of printing their wedding invitations.
To ensure the invitations captured the essence of their special day, we used 320gsm Rives Tradition, a premium textured card stock renowned for its refined, felt-marked finish.
The end result is a set of invitations that exudes luxury and sets the perfect tone for Esther and Hayden's unforgettable wedding. When you choose Colourcraft, you can trust us to bring your vision to life and deliver printed materials that leave a lasting impression.

Premium Impact, Faithfully Delivered: Gift Boxes for Arise Church's Passionate Conference
Arise Church is one of Aotearoa’s most dynamic and well-known faith communities, with campuses across the country. Their annual Passionate Women’s Conference draws thousands of attendees and is known for its world-class production and powerful, purpose-driven message. Arise needed something small but stunning a premium gift box that matched the scale and energy of the conference while honouring the women it celebrated. We've worked with Arise since their early days in Wellington, so when they asked us to deliver 1700 bespoke pillow boxes, we were all in.
Each box was crafted from 240gsm Rothmill Mulberry a deep, berry-toned board with a smooth matte finish. Onto that, we applied hot stamp foil in either metallic gold or silver (850 of each) bringing bold contrast and serious shine to the “Seated & Celebrated” graphic. The foiling process we use creates not just visual impact but also a subtle debossed texture that feels as good as it looks. Once foiled, every piece was precision die-cut and glued to shape—ready to be flat-packed, transported, and assembled with ease on site.
The result? A compact, curved pillow box with a boutique look and a tactile finish that elevated the unboxing moment into something meaningful. It’s proof that the small details matter, and when done well, they leave a lasting impression.
Another 5-star review we’re proud to share:

Premium Training Tool: Custom Card Pack + Wallet-Style Carton for ComplyWith
ComplyWith is a Wellington-based legal compliance platform helping organisations across New Zealand get their compliance right, without the guesswork. For their “Building Blocks of Good Compliance” initiative, they needed a premium, tactile training tool: 300 sets of custom double-sided playing cards, neatly packaged in branded cartons.
Each set included 28 custom-sized cards (76mm x 110mm, rounded corners), printed in full colour both sides. The goal was to turn complex compliance ideas into something accessible, hands-on and memorable, using the power of a well-designed physical tool to reinforce learning. The impact was clear: just two months after the initial run, ComplyWith returned for a second order of another 300 units.
The project involved tight deadlines, late-stage design changes and multiple decision-makers, so speed, precision and proactive support were non-negotiable. We produced structural carton prototypes early, advised on format options (wallet vs tuck-in vs two-piece), and supported Salted Herring’s design team with precise, production-ready dielines.
The final packs were printed on our Konica Minolta AccurioPress C4070, delivering flawless colour consistency across all sets. Cards were printed on 300gsm Pro-Digital Silk stock and matte laminated both sides for durability and smooth handling. The cartons were printed on 260gsm Tiger FBB board, matte laminated one side for protection and a refined, soft-touch feel. Internal messaging beneath the flap completed the unboxing experience.
"We always receive the best service and quality products from Colourcraft. They have a super speedy turnaround and their team is very professional." — Kathryn McCormack, ComplyWith

Trusted Under Pressure: A Meaningful Campaign, Printed Fast for The Cancer Society
When VML New Zealand came to us with ‘The Book that Ended Cancer,’ we knew it wasn’t just another print job—it was part of a meaningful campaign. Commissioned by The Cancer Society of New Zealand, the initiative aimed to raise awareness and drive real change around cervical cancer in Aotearoa.
We’d already been working closely with VML to produce a premium, cost-effective short run of perfect-bound, full-colour books. The goal was to create something remarkable for 25 well-known New Zealanders who would receive copies, add their stories, and amplify the message through their networks.
Then came an unexpected opportunity: Hilary Barry wanted to read from the book the very next day on Seven Sharp. The only catch? The books hadn’t been printed yet, we’re in Wellington—and the show films in Auckland.
VML could have worked with a local Auckland printer, but when timing was critical and the quality needed to be spot on, they trusted us. We produced a handful of books in just a few hours—printed, bound, and ready for an urgent courier to the airport. From Wellington to Auckland, in time for the cameras.
We ran the job on our Konica Minolta AccurioPress C4070 to ensure sharp, consistent colour and perfect alignment across every page. Covers were printed full colour one side on 350gsm Advance Laser, finished with a scuff-resistant matt laminate for a soft-touch, durable feel. Pages were printed throughout on 120gsm Advance Laser for a smooth, high-quality finish.
A fast turnaround, with no corners cut.
