Our envelopes were beautiful and work was quick. The few mistakes that were made were corrected quickly and Laurel sent these out for us to save on the time lost.

Working with Laurel was, BY FAR, the absolute easiest and most enjoyable part of my wedding planning process. She was always incredibly quick to get back with me any time I had to contact her (which was frequently since there were significant d...
elays in getting the correct envelopes from my stationer!) Even with all of the delays, she was so patient and pleasant each time I had to tell her it would be another couple of days. Not to mention her turnaround time was amazing! I honestly couldn't have done it any faster myself. She offers pick-up and delivery, which made it so convenient. Most importantly, her work was stunning! I received more compliments than I could count. She definitely went above and beyond and I would HIGHLY recommend her.

I looked at several different calligraphers, and Laurel's pricing and style could not be beat. She was incredibly pleasant to work with. I had 2 ceremonies - I was so pleased with her work for the first that I did not hesitate to use her for ...

As for A Little Something Different calligraphy, She did everything perfectly!!! These invitations were more than I was asking for, they were just amazing. They were sent out on time, the wax seal on the envelope was done beautifully. Her price...
s were very fair. She went above and beyond my expectations.
She was also my wedding planner!! My wedding was the most beautiful, simple backyard wedding ever. She hand made my bouquet, and all of the bouquets for my bride's maids. We picked my wedding cake together, and it was just as I imagined it to be. I have not one complaint. The setup was like a dream. She planned the wedding town to the very last detail, including the favors, decor, banner, and centerpieces for the tables (which she made ALL by hand). She had so many unique ideas that I loved. One of my bride's maids said that she will DEFINITELY be using Laurel as her wedding planner. My family members, friends, and in-laws were all astounded by the outcome of my wedding. It was the happiest day of my life. I could never thank her enough for all of the hard work she did. She was so good that her husband was even my DJ, and he was great!! I could go on and on about how perfect and wonderful that day turned out to be.

So I used two different caligraphers. My first calligrapher was A Little Something Different. HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE!!!
She was completely unprofessional. She made so many errors that I ended up making 2 separate trips from Baton Rouge, La to New...
Orleans to purchase replacement envolops.
When I first contacted her, she gave me a quote of 1 week to finish addressing both inner and outer envelops for my invitations. After 2 weeks pasted, I had to call her to find out the status. At that time, she informed me that she had made so many errors that she was completely out of envelops then tried to blame me by saying I didn't have enough extra envelops (I had ~25 extra envelops). When she obtained replacement envolops, the color of the inner and outer envelops didn't match and the inner were too big to fit inside the outer envelops. Her fix to this was to say that I should force the inner evelop inside the outer envelop and deal with buldges in the outer envelop. So I drove an hour to New Orleans to buy new sets of envelops for her to correct her errors.
Once we finally got the full set of addressed envelops and began to stuff them, we discovered more errors. Envelops with no zip codes, names spelled wrong, names missing, errors in address. This called for a second trip to New Orleans to purchase more replace envelop sets. When we contacted her to inform her of the additional errors found, she again blamed us and was extremely rude. So I addressed the envelops that were incorrect.
I will never use her again. She was not worth the time, energy, stress or money. I would not recommend her to anyone. She is horrible. Needless to say, I used a different calligrapher to address my tent cards later.

I'm sorry that your experience with my services was not a positive one. I did agree that the envelopes would take one week, but I believe you were out of town during the time I was working on them; I also had a few questions that I asked your f...
iance about, and he let me know he needed to speak with you first, so awaiting the response caused a short delay, though it was about a week and a half, total, from the time I received the envelopes until the time I returned them to you. As in anything that is hand done, mistakes are often made, which is why it's so important to have those extra envelopes. Twenty-five extra envelopes would have made a big difference in this order - one of the challenges I had with the envelopes was that some of them "scratched" or wouldn't take the ink because of the finish on the envelopes - however, when I received them, there were not 25 extra, but 10 or 15. I tried to find comparable envelopes in the Baton Rouge area; when I met with you, I clearly saw that they didn't match and wouldn't fit, and my suggestion was not to force them and deal with an unsightly bulge, but rather to forgo the inner envelope on the those few that were left. At that time you mentioned you had to take a trip to New Orleans for something wedding related; I mentioned a place that I get my supplies from in the New Orleans area (as most of my business is done in the New Orleans area, so I have many reliable resources there for supplies, whereas options in Baton Rouge are limited) and assured you that they would have the correct envelopes in sets that matched. I stayed in Baton Rouge, because I wanted to be available to address your envelopes when you returned from New Orleans. I didn't mind waiting - I wanted to do whatever I could to fix the mistakes and provide you with a personal and caring degree of service, because all of my customers, and their satisfaction, are very important to me, and very much worth my time. Once you returned to Baton Rouge, I met up with you to address the envelopes. A day or so later, when you contacted me, I enquired about the types of mistakes you were referring to; all orders are proofed line by line before they are returned to the customer, and I was disappointed that you seemed to have additional errors with your order, though I wasn't expressing disappointment with you, but rather with myself, further mentioning that I hadn't had this happen before now. I was prepared to go to New Orleans myself, free of charge, to get replacement envelopes and make any necessary corrections, but upon my response, I never heard back from you. I am truly sorry that your experience with me was not a positive one. I appreciate your business, and your feedback. It will help me to provide better service in the future. Thank you so much and, once again, my deepest apologies.
