Dallas Calligrapher
It’s always a party, and this Dallas Baby sprinkle designed by Gro was one for the books. The menus were layered with vellum on top of a cute pink umbrella. I then added the names in a pretty white ink and sweet script.
Isn’t the entrance just divine? I adore the umbrellas and balloons just floating.
Fashion in Dallas, Texas is serious business and lunch events for fashion housed should be just as chic. These printed acrylic menus with white leather were just the ticket.
Each was personalized with the guest name in a red italic capital hand. A far was from my normal swirly scripts, it was a fun change of pace.

I completed all of these menus on-site in a few hours before guests arrived. Dallas fashion events can have a fluid guest list with last minute additions and I like on-site calligraphy because it can ensure each guest is special and valued. This is the fun time when the caterer is buzzing around and the rentals are being carried in and set in place. I usually work alone so this is big change of pace for me. The key to working in a different environment is to be flexible and adjust to your situation.

I adore what Gro Designs did on the table design. It’s stunning and has a nice pop of color with the red blooms that span the table. The white linens and plates, along with the clear acrylic chairs, allow the red menus to shine.

The nice thing about a corporate party is that it can be colorful and wild and crazy!
Todd Events brought me on to pen place cards for this very large corporate party planned by Jennifer Zabinski Events.
These cards are neon green acrylic with white ink in my copperplate script.
The way the tables were lit, everything really glowed.
Also, check out this killer stage set up. I’ve never seen Gilley’s look this cool. Elan Artists rocked the room this night.
These wedding place cards on ribbon have been giving me all the heart eyes recently. I matched the ink to a custom hydrangea blue and used a casual brush script to keep the light and airy feeling of the ribbon. First names only because it was an intimate affair. These gorgeous silk ribbons were tied around a few herbs and placed on the dinner plate for a welcoming place setting.
Working with the top talent in the wedding world is always an honor. This luxury event was planned and designed by Gro Designs. All the stationery was in collaboration with Stamped Paper Co (she is a genius). These photographs are by me – I’m sure the professional ones from the actual wedding are far superior.
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.
