  • How to Hire a Wedding Calligrapher

    Thu May 27 13:00:00 GMT 2010 AisleDash

    Filed under: Working with Vendors Cheryl Hoffman Once you've selected the perfect wedding invitation, you should choose a calligrapher whose handwriting will complement the tone of your wedding. Even though mailing guests a calligraphed invitation is not a wedding requirement, there is something special about receiving a calligraphed envelope in the mail. Unlike most of your wedding vendors, you can hire a calligrapher who doesn't live in your neighborhood. Simply mail her your envelopes and a typed list of your guests and their address, and once calligraphed, she'll mail them back to you. I...

  • Kathryn Murray, Calligrapher Extraordinaire

    Mon Jan 11 08:30:26 PST 2010 SW Magazine

    We may be biased (okay... we are definitely biased), but we truly think Southern Weddings is one of the most beautiful magazines on newsstands.  We owe a ton of that beauty to the many, many talented photographers whose work has graced our pages, but a lion's share of the credit goes to one very special lady: Kathryn Murray.  Lara frequently suggests that her LC Reps clients ditch their Trajan or Bickham font logos in favor of something more unique, something designed just for them, something that no one will have seen before.  After hearing this sound piece of advice over and over, we ...

    I feature a lot of calligraphy both here on EAD and on Oh So Beautiful Paper, and that s mostly because I just can t see enough calligraphy myself!  To me, beautiful calligraphy is truly a work of art, one that can definitely enhance an already beautiful wedding invitation.  When trying to decide on a calligrapher, I recommend trying to find a calligrapher whose style matches your overall wedding style - from modern handwriting calligraphy to traditional calligrapy with lots of wispy flourishes.  I was recently introduced to the calligraphy portfolio of Grace Edmands, and I absolutely fell ...
