We recently received a quote for $1200 for calligraphy (300 total envelopes) and while I think it's of course reasonable to pay a professional a decent amount for their work, it seems like quite a lot to spend.
I work at an art university and can take classes for free and they happen to be offering calligraphy so I've signed up! However, my mother immediately told me it was a terrible idea to try and do the calligraphy myself. I've tried calligraphy in the past and wasn't awful, plus I have a year until my wedding.
Has anyone done their own calligraphy? How did it turn out?
And for those that paid a professional, how much was it? Thanks!
