DO NOT BOOK THIS VENDOR. She is a scam artist. I can't remember how I found her but I worked with her on calligraphy for my wedding invitation envelopes. She was great at first. She responded quickly to emails, sent samples of her work, and was very pleasant to work with...at first. I mailed her my envelopes from Texas to her home in Idaho and sent her a $25 deposit through Paypal. She said the envelopes would be complete within a week. After two weeks, I hadn't heard anything so I sent her a follow up email. Received no response so tried calling, texting, and another two emails with no response. I always look up reviews, even on restaurants, and in this case, I didn't, and really wish I had. She apparently has done this in the past where she just takes your deposit then never hear from her again. I don't understand this scam of stealing envelopes, seems like a strange thing to do to me. I was lucky it was just envelopes; I read other reviews where brides sent her up to $1,400 of invitations just to never see them again.

Overall lesson learned: if a vendor does not have any social media links on their website, do not use them. Always look up reviews before booking someone. I am reporting her to various agencies and writing reviews where I can so others do not fall for this trap.

We were excited to find a calligrapher who had said she could do a quick turnaround, adding recipient addresses to my daughter's wedding invitation envelopes. There were only 30 and we hoped to have them back in approximately a week. We mailed the envelopes to her from Seattle. At first DJ was very responsive with email. Then she emailed saying she was on a road trip, but had taken our envelopes with her to work on them. Days went by. And then she just stopped responding. A month has passed, and we have never heard from her, nor were the envelopes ever returned. How could someone with a credible business do this. Extremely disappointing.

DJ (Doris J Codner) is a scammer. I found her via Etsy and reached out to her about her calligraphy services. She was very quick to respond and provided a lot of detail about her services. I went as far as putting down a deposit. Two weeks ago all communication with her stopped. My emails and phone calls went unanswered and after doing a bit of digging, I found that DJ Design Company was formally Scripted Calligraphy Studio. Reading through reviews, it seems DJ was previously scamming others using the Scripted Calligraphy business name. I'm writing a review hoping that others don't fall trap. So disappointing that someone could do that.
