Couples who choose paper wedding invitations over digital invites are often stationery lovers. Calligraphy is a popular way to make a first impression!

Finding a beautifully addressed envelope in amongst the junk mail and bills can really brighten someone's day!

I studied Marketing as a degree. Most Marketing degrees at the time were Arts degrees, but mine was a Bachelor of Science. I studied consumer psychology and the science of how people respond to design and messages. A few years on, and I can apply what I learned to the importance of beautifully designed invitations to make your guests feel excited about coming to your wedding, weeks or months before the big day itself!

It's all about stopping them in their tracks by showing them something unique and different. Calligraphy envelopes for the win!

I pour my heart into addressing every envelope. I mix my inks with care, prepare a new calligraphy nib for every order, and practice my swooshes and swirls at the beginning of every session. Why? Because I'm aiming for doorstep delight with every envelope that lands at one of your wedding guest's feet.
