Best pen for wedding invites

I was going to use a white gel pen (burgundy envelopes) but with the issues I've started having with my carpal tunnel, I think we will be using a calligrapher from Etsy for ours, since it's relatively inexpensive for how few we will have.

I've seen gold sharpie used and it's not so bad since it is cardstock but idk if that's the best option.

For doing calligraphy, I like the pentel brush pens.

As a pen junkie, I like the staedtler triplus fineliners for thin lines or staedtler pigment liners for thicker lines.

Same as MNA, used a white gel pen on dark hunter green envelopes.

Yesss. Staedters are amazing. I worked at Office Depot for 2 years and I'm crazy about pens and Staedtlers are amazing!!!

@soontobestarkey - do the staedtler pens smear?

Ultra fine sharpies ... and they come in so many colors

My dad used calligraphy pens from michaels and they looked lovely

Fountain pen :-D

Thanks! I'll have to go check them all out. I am wasting way too much time on this than I probably should be...

I used a 2mm felt tip calligraphy pen. Came out looking pretty cool!

@BreKMK - do you have an example? I'd love to see

@elizabeth not usually. Only if you use a heavy hand, and even then it's rare.

Not a great pic, but this is the triplus fineliner.

Just did this last night... I used a Recollections Signature Special Metallic in Copper cause it matched the trees on my invitations... $3 @ Michaels!! LOL
