Our calligraphy letterpress invitations

We scoured the country to find the most amazing calligraphers for our invitation design. True and passionate artists, they are dedicated, like us, to old craftwork and the creation of beauty. Our master calligraphers pen, by hand, the text of each calligraphy invitation design the old-fashioned way, with a pen, ink, and paper. This means each design is as unique as the wedding itself. We then make our letterpress plates directly from our calligrapher&srquo;s artwork. You choose the calligraphy style that best suites you: modern or classic or historical or just plain cool.

Calligraphy accents

(additional cost for this customization)

Calligraphy accents showcase specific text in an invitation that uses mainly fonts. For instance, the bride’s and groom’s names on the invitation might be done in calligraphy; or the reply by date on your r.s.v.p. card; or the location on your reception card; or any text you’d like to highlight . Calligraphy monograms are also available. Choose any calligraphy style featured in our calligraphy invitations. And see Nantucket, Ville-Marie, or Lola for examples of accents. Calligraphy accents are $80 per piece; calligraphy monograms are also $80.

About calligraphy

Before fonts, before type, before letterpress printing even, there was calligraphy. Calligraphy technology has not changed much the past thousand years—still a pen, paper, and a really talented person. No two letters that a calligrapher draws will ever be identical. We love that.
