Even before seeing your beautiful wedding invitation, your guests will see their names addressed on the envelope. What a special opportunity for them to ooh and ahh over their names and address! Yes, there are gorgeous fonts available, but nothing really compares to hand addressed envelopes written with a dipping pen and ink. Your guests will find their envelopes are a keepsake.

Addressing envelopes by hand does take time, as each one is written very carefully. I have been offering wedding calligraphy since 2007, and I don’t rush through a job, but give it careful detail. I usually ask for 2 weeks per 100 addresses. Under my tab “Preparing your project” you’ll find plenty of tips and instructions for getting your guest list ready for me.
