Add the perfect extra touch to your event with 

Calligraphy & Vintage Stamps

Everyone always says it's the personal details that make an event stand out. From the first impression your guests have of your event with a Save the Date, to the very end with the thank you note tucked into their favor, calligraphy adds the perfect extra special touch to your event. My services include custom wedding invitations, envelope calligraphy, place cards, menus, programs, monograms, signage . . . basically anything you would like to have in calligraphy! I specialize in classic, elegant copperplate calligraphy, but also provide modern calligraphy and classic cursive scripts.  

Adding vintage stamps customized to your Save the Dates, Invitations, RSVPs and Thank You notes adds an extra personalized detail that your guests will not forget.  I curate custom vintage stamp sets to compliment your invitations and reflect your event and interests.  A perfectly curated vintage stamp provides a beautiful snapshot of a couple's story on their invitation.

ABOUT

Hello! I'm Emily.

I first picked up a calligraphy pen in 2004, to design, create and address my wedding invitations.  Since then I have spent the majority of my professional career as a marine biologist, with calligraphy acting as a relaxing creative release after a day of work and parenting two young girls.  Recently, I have shifted my focus from the laboratory to creating beautiful things full time.  

​

I am a member of the International Association of Master Penmen, Engrossers and Teachers of Handwriting (IAMPETH).  I have studied under renowned calligraphers including Master Penman John DeCollibus, Suzanne Cunningham and Anne Elser.

 

Calligraphy, stationery and stamps are my passion, let me use my talents to help you create the event of your dreams.
