Beautiful work!

Lisa did the calligraphy for our wedding invitations, and we loved her work so much that we asked her to do our rehearsal dinner and bridal luncheon invitations! She even took on creating our wedding signage and programs. She’s a one-stop shop for all of your wedding needs, all for a great price!

Amazing! Talented!! Loving!

Lisa Marlo is an absolute genius to work with. She knows how to get down to the deep information about what excatly the bride is looking for. It's remarkable.

Lisa listens and asks questionsand listens more.

My daughter had idea's but couldn't find what she was truly lookng for. In Lisa's words "we backed into our wedding invitations". After months of looking and time after time falling short we went to see Lisa Marlo. In less than an hour my daughter had her dream invitation custom designed by Lisa. It was all so natural for her. I'm so impressed and relieved to have this woman on our wedding team.

Thank you Lisa for supporting me and my daughter. You're amazing!!!!

Get your invitations only from Lisa Marlo and save yourself frustration. I'll post pictures when the invitations go out.

Learning calligraphy (even 765 miles away from teacher) easier than ever!!

Whether you're looking for a talented calligrapher or looking to get calligraphy instruction (even in a distance-learning format), Lisa has you covered. She's easy to work with, encouraging, thorough and now I and my step-daughter have a skill that we can use AND pass on. Thanks, Lisa!

Beautiful work

I am so pleased with how great the calligraphy looks on my wedding invitations! Lisa is so knowledgeable on etiquette and very quick to respond. I needed to change several addresses and add people as time went on, and she never complained and got them to me quicker than I could turn around. Incredible person and beautiful work. Highly, HIGHLY recommend!

Amazing quality!

I can’t recommend Lisa enough! She provides quality customer service and quality products. I used Lisa’s calligraphy for my wedding invitations outer envelopes, and it was the best experience! She is quick to respond to emails and texts, prompt with finished products and is all around a joy to talk to! I needed extra envelopes made last minute, and Lisa had them done within the day. I’ve had so many of my guests comment on the beauty of my envelopes! Her artistry is simply amazing!

Amazing work

Lisa did an amazing job on my daughter’s wedding invitations. Since my daughter went with more of a modern invitation, we wanted a calligraphy style that matched its level of formality. Lisa gave us a couple of wonderful choices and was so patient and kind while she made her decision. The invitations are beautiful and were completed in less than a week! She is a true artist who truely wants to please her clients. Highly recommend her!
