Look no further for your wedding calligraphy/stationary needs!

Bethany is so talented and was such a pleasure to work with! Cost wise her services are worth it without breaking the bank and would highly reccomend her for any stationary or calligrahpy needs. She created the perfect design for our large bar chalkboard that really added to the wedding, and made sure it was exactly what we pictured for it. Thank you, Bethany!!

Gorgeous Chalkboard Art

My now husband and I got married at a venue with a large chalkboard behind the bar. Neither of us are artistic at all…enter Bethany to save the day. She was easy and pleasant to work with and she created a gorgeous design for our wedding bar choices! We couldn’t have been any happier with her work and would recommend her to anyone!!

Amazing Work!!

I was lucky enough to have Bethany's incredible work as part of my wedding day decor. I cannot say enough good things! She customized the bar chalkboard at my venue and also designed a separate one for my cocktail hour. Both were stunning and such special custom pieces for our wedding. She is amazing to work with. I would recommend her to anyone!

She is amazing!

Bethany was so easy to work with and incredibly talented! She put together a proposal quickly, had a very easy platform to pay and view her proposal. She knew our venue (Chestnut Ridge) very well and came highly recommended, so we were so confident in hiring her to provide calligraphy services on the chalkboard bar. She incorporated the mountains from our invite and we were so happy with how everything came together so cohesively! She is AMAZINGLY talented!!!
