The Left Handed Calligrapher for Goop

These gorgeous menus were by The Left Handed Calligrapher for Goop a few weeks ago. I penned them in a gorgeous rose gold to match the foil (stationer unknown) on the fluffy handmade paper. My Mitty caps script was featured.

This was a fun event celebrating the Goop pop up shop in Highland Park Village at a private residence. I’ll share more once the photos are available online!

I love seeing menus all lined up in someone else’s well lit house when I work on-site. The edges on this paper though! So lovely.

If you need someone for your event, give me a call. I can travel under certain circumstances to complete on-site for the finishing touches to complete the event look.

Classic calligraphy envelope addressing

I just love this classic script – Spence – for traditional weddings. It has lovely thick and thin contrast, interesting capitals and variations to make it current and something your grandmother would love and approve of.

It looks wonderful in the tried and true black ink and white envelopes but also updated with blue ink or even white ink on a color envelope.

This is turning out to be popular this season along with the classic copperplate. Thank you fantastic brides for working with me using my favorite classic calligraphy scripts. Timeless events, lovely forever.

Published in D Magazine

Another wedding was published in D Magazine and I’m just so proud. This celebration was a real joy to work on and the results were simply stunning. Wendy with Birds of a Feather Events had a design vision and with her carefully selected vendors it came to life. The Southern Table rocked the floral design and Charla Storey captured it all beautifully.

For my part with stationery, I did the envelope addressing to mail off this gorgeous suite by Southern Fried Paper. Then I did the menu place cards and scroll seating cards. I adore the colors and the classic Rook script chosen.

I just love it when my brides are able to share their celebrations. When out Weddings are published in magazines, it is a boost to my portfolio and show potential clients that I operate an established and honest business with a proven track record. So, thank you for letting me share the good news of my little business!

Charleston Wedding

This Charleston Wedding is one for the books. It’s so timeless and classic in my copperplate script, Charleston green engraving and thick white cotton paper. When the Ceci New York team brought me on for this wedding, I was over the moon. Didn’t they do a great job with the design?

The save the dates coordinate perfectly with the wedding invitations. Also in the same classic copperplate script, letterpressed in thick white cotton paper with a stunning watercolor illustration of Charleston on the back. I’m in love!

One of my favorite things about this Charleston wedding stationery is that it is forever timeless. It could be a suite from today, 50 years ago or 50 years from now and will never show its age.

Custom calligraphy for Palm Beach Wedding

I provided this custom calligraphy for Palm Brach wedding to Ceci New York. It is so fun to see what happens to the calligraphy after I’ve done my part.

This design is joyful and exciting with the floral touches, green letterpress calligraphy and fun vintage stamps. The envelope addressing was finished using a custom green ink mixed to perfectly match the letterpress ink on the cards. I love it when the colors are matched so well. It feels seamless and attentive to the design.

No event is complete without matching menus and seating assignments in the same green calligraphy. The script was complete custom to the bride for her whole suite. For the bride who needs just a little extra to complete her vision.
