I highly recommend using A Fine Letter for invitation addressing. We were on the fence about spending money on calligraphy and on the East Coast, we could not find a calligrapher for our invitations that would not set us back several hundred dollars. I happened to stumble onto A Fine Letter's website, and was stunned to see that not only were their prices reasonable, their handwriting styles were beautiful. It was easy to work with them from a distance, and the turnaround time was incredible. The envelopes came back to us looking fantastic. It was worth the very small added cost to have this, and made the envelopes captures the simple elegance of our wedding - a small detail that, to our own surprise, makes a difference!

Found A Fine Letter thru the internet and used them to address our wedding invitation envelopes and again for our reception guest table cards. They are very accommodating and efficiant. Had each of the orders within days of dropping them off. It was well worth the money to have the tasks done and completed so beautifully.

Fantastic experience with A Fine Letter. They were extremely reasonable compared to other vendors I looked at, which initially was concerning but the quality couldn't have been better! Melanie was quick to respond and they turned around very quickly, which was necessary in my situation, without even a rush charge! I would recommend them to anyone :)

We used A Fine Letter to address our invitations. I looked at a lot of calligraphers, but couldn't find a better deal than A Fine Letter. While I live in DC, I knew it was worth it to ship our invites to A Fine Letter and I was so glad I did. Our envelopes were flawless, we didn't find a single mistake! They looked amazing and we decided to use A fine Letter to write out our place cards as well. We weren't sure what color pen we wanted to use and Melanie was so great showing me pictures and samples in various colors and styles. These also turned out perfectly and were completed and shipped so quickly. Great value and great service!

I used A Fine Letter Calligraphy to address wedding invitations (inner and outer envelopes) and for placecards. Everything turned out wonderfully and the price was very reasonable. I provided address list and table assignments and A Fine Letter Calligraphy did the rest. I contacted the vendors via email and responses were extremely quick. I like using smaller, local companies for services and I was very pleased!

When I first started planning my NYC wedding, I bought all the NY Mag and NYC bridal magazines out there. When I saw the going rates for NYC calligraphers, I gasped - the envelopes started at $4 and only went up from there! Given my small budget, I knew I had to look elsewhere to find a quality calligrapher within my price range.

When I found A Fine Letter I thought it was too good to be true – they had great pricing, several different font options, and an extremely quick turnaround time. Melanie, the owner, was a pleasure to communicate with and extremely responsive. The best part was receiving my perfectly calligraphied envelopes in less than a week! I was blown away that I could receive this level of quality and service for the price I paid.

I would recommend A Fine Letter to all the brides out there, but particularly to those in NYC who are sick of having to pay NYC prices X 10 for anything wedding related.

After reading glowing reviews and visiting their website, I decided to contact A Fine Letter to begin the process of calligraphing my invitations. I have to say, upon receiving the finished product, my expectations were exceeded. My calligrapher was quick, very flexible and made me feel so comfortable and confident in her abilities. The experience was truly one of the best I've had during my entire planning process. A Fine Letter is affordable and provides real, quality service. I'm so satisfied with the result that I am having my escort cards calligraphed by A Fine Letter as well!

A fine letter was wonderful to work with. They were very reasonably priced. I used one of the cheapest fonts, Georgia, I believe and it looked gorgeous! These ladies were very quick with their responses to me, as I had several questions. It was quick and easy to drop them off and I got them back very quickly.

These ladies, a mother and daughter pair-I believe, are great to work with!!
