About

Hello! I'm Cristine, the calligrapher behind the name. Congratulations on your upcoming wedding! I'm so excited to help you!

I think we can all agree one of the most exciting things to find in your mailbox is a wedding invitation. Who doesn't love to find out they've been invited to share in the moment when two friends say "I do"? I love to help create the giddy excitement that comes from finding something special in your mailbox. Calligraphy on your wedding invitations can bring your wedding vision to life, and I'd love to help create that excitement for your guests!

In addition to addressing your wedding invitations, let me help you design your invitations, food and drink menus and programs. I can also write your escort cards and table numbers. Maybe you'd prefer a mirrored seating chart or tile place cards or acrylic table numbers. What ever creative way you'd like to invite your guests to your wedding or to their seat, I'm your girl!

I love to be creative but I'm a planner (a.k.a. detail oriented) at heart. With 15 years of wedding experience, I'm pretty sure I've seen it all but try me! I promise to handle your special event the same way I would my own. I want to make sure your wedding vision shines through to your guests from the moment they receive their invitation in the mail until they send you off at the end of your wedding night!

Excellent Service!

Cristine did a wonderful job making our wedding signs for our block party wedding last summer! I sent her a few ideas I had via Pintrest and she completely nailed it!
I wasn't there when she delivered the signs the day before the wedding, but later noticed some of the ink had bled from transporting the signs from her car into the house on a rainy day. From my understanding the signs were covered during transportation but some rain drops accidentally made its way through (understandably). I sent her photos of the water marks and she immediately responded and came over to fix them. I was impressed with her professionalism and her work. I highly recommend Cristine for your calligraphy needs!

Amazing Calligraphy!

I can’t say enough great things about Cristine! Working with her last year for my wedding stationery needs as far as calligraphy went was amazing and she did a phenomenal job. Cristine addressed my save the dates and invitations and also did a wealth of other items for me, such as gift tags, escort cards, and table numbers. Every piece of her work is absolutely gorgeous and is of the utmost quality. She is also incredibly responsive and sweet and just a joy to work with. I really appreciated her constant updates and transparency into the projects. Her prices are very fair and she’s incredibly upfront about everything. She also gave me great advice whenever I was looking for direction. Her husband even hand delivered items to me outside my office, which was so nice of him! I hope to work with her again many times in the future.

Calligrapher

Cristine does beautiful work. I loved working with her for both my daughters’ wedding invitations. Calligraphy has always been an important touch, to me, for any special occasion. Her work is fairly priced and she is prompt and meticulous. You will be happy you called her!
