I truly can’t say enough good things about Joan. She came to my rescue when I was in a time crunch with my wedding invitations and did 105 envelopes - (inside and outside so really 210) in 4 days…4 DAYS!!
She was so quick to respond, easy to coordinate with and does truly breathtaking work. I am beyond excited for my wedding guests to see their names in Joan’s beautiful calligraphy. Thank you Joan, I truly can’t thank you enough. To anyone considering using a touch of ink. Do it. I promise you won’t regret it.
Joan was absolutely incredible. She was extremely responsive and has lots of options to choose from regarding style. The turn-around was so quick. I sent my cards to her poorly secured and she returned them as if they came from the manufacturer. They were wrapped perfectly and look amazing. I would HIGHLY recommend her. Thank you, Joan!! You made our day very special with this beautiful detail.
I couldn’t be happier! I wanted to use artificial leaves as seating cards and didn’t realize that Joan had never done calligraphy on something like that before. I described what I wanted and she immediately sent me samples that were just perfect. They came out absolutely beautiful! My guests were as impressed as I was. When my 2nd daughter gets married, I’ll go straight to A Touch of Ink for friendly, professional, timely service that couldn’t have been done better.
There are no words to describe Joan and Touch of Ink Calligraphy. We had the mailing envelopes hand written and the RSVP envelopes computer printed. At the last minute we even had her hand write the names of our bridal party on their gift bags. Everything was done in a within a few days and came out beautiful! We received so many compliments on our envelopes. Joan makes sure every step of the way was stress free. She responded right away to any request or question we had and was attentive to every detail. She is absolutely amazing! I highly recommend her services to any bride, they will not be disappointed!
I found Joan at Touch of Ink on Etsy and I couldn’t have asked for a more FABULOUS work product and impeccable customer service. First and foremost, the product is beautiful and we are BEYOND thrilled with how the registry cards look. My wedding is in 2 weeks and I was in a frenzy looking for someone who could do the cards in such a short timeline. Joan is QUICK - she responded right away (within hours of my initial inquiry) and we were in business a day later. She sent several samples as well as pictures of the cards as she was writing them so that I could catch mistakes as she worked. In the end, Joan did 150 registry cards in 2 days and in my hands a day after that.
She was beyond accommodating, and even added a few extra registry cards that I forgot to originally include (without charging extra). It was truly a pleasurable customer service experience, period.
I was a bit worried when I received the cards that quality would be compromised because she was so quick, but they were perfect. I highly recommend Joan!!!
Joan is so talented and knowledgeable!! She addressed the envelopes and escort cards for my daughters wedding. They were beautiful and added such an elegant touch to the day. She has all kinds of samples to show you and can guide you with all your etiquette questions. She is quick to respond and very accommodating to any last minute changes. Most important is her calligraphy is gorgeous!!
We ordered escort cards and place cards and they were really beautiful. Joan was a pleasure to work with, extremely responsive, happy to provide samples, and doing our last minute additions the week of the wedding. Everything was done by mail and arrived promptly. Highly recommended.
The calligraphy is perfect and the place cards look beautiful. We are so excited to have them displayed at my daughter's wedding. I would highly recommend Joan and A Touch of Ink!
Joan was amazing throughout this entire process! She helped me every step of the way and pays attention to every detail! She made this experience enjoyable and stress free! She does beautiful work! It really adds a special touch to the invites and escort cards when they're so beautifully handwritten! I would highly recommend her to any bride!! Thank you for EVERYTHING Joan!!
Joan is absolutely amazing!! I was in a time crunch for my place cards for my September 7th wedding. Joan saved me so much stress. She was always responsive to my emails even though it was a holiday weekend. The calligraphy on my place cards were beautiful and elegant. I highly recommend A Touch of Ink!
I can not recommend Joan enough!! My original plan for my wedding invitations was to have the recipient addresses printed on the envelopes. Three days prior to stuffing the envelopes, it was discovered the envelopes would not fit in the printer due to the thick liner. Panicked about our deadline, we began to reach out to printers and calligraphers to see who would be able to get the job done quickly. Joan stepped in and was able to address all 125 of our invitations in just over 24 hours for such a reasonable price!!! The invitations are gorgeous and more beautiful then I could have ever imagined. I can’t not thank her enough for her swift, meticulous work and will be recommending her to all of my friends.
Joan from a touch of ink is amazing! She is professional, polite and sweet! Her prices are fabulous and she really works with you to get everything just perfect ! I would recommend her to anyone who needs calligraphy or printing on their envelopes ! Thanks Joan!
Our envelopes came out absolutely perfect! We ended up getting our invitations from a small independent artist who used some unique fonts, but A Touch of Ink was able to find the font and match it perfectly, which made for an incredibly cohesive package! Joan is also incredibly responsive AND efficient. We had our envelopes in no time, and we were even able to add a few after the fact (we forgot the groom's parents -- WHOOPS). If you need a professional, efficient and flexible calligrapher -- look no further!!!

Joan and I have been friends since childhood and I was overly satisfied with her amazing workmanship on our wedding materials and favors. She is extremely passionate about her work of arts and it showed!!! I would highly recommend Joan for any calligraphy services. Five stars+ for this experienced and very talented artist!!!
I am the mother of the bride and found Joan from A Touch of Ink Calligraphy is amazing to work with. Highly professional, responds very quickly, detailed oriented and a pure pleasure to work with. She is knowledgeable and very helpful in guiding the customer to making right decisions for their event. Joan is easy to work with and cares about making sure all is done correctly. If I could give Joan more than 5 stars I would. I would not hesitate to refer her or use her again. The quality of her work is unsurpassable. The final product is so beautiful I can't wait for our wedding guests to get their invitations.
I heard about A Touch of Ink from my Mother in Law and I could not be happier with her work. She did our place cards and invitations, both remarked upon by our family and our guests. She even helped accommodate a second round of invitations and last minute place card changes! I highly recommend her!
Joan was the best vendor out of all that I used for my New York wedding. Working with her was like a breath of fresh air in otherwise warped and inefficient wedding industry. She went out of her way to make sure the process was smooth, was the only vendor who didn’t nickel and dime me (for example i needed an extra envelope sent to me after all my envelopes were mailed, and she simply didn’t charge me as it would have been more work to send a fee for 1 envelope -- while every other vendor in the wedding industry would have found a way to charge me 2x for that.. think invitation printing). Her work was amazing - Joan sent me 10 samples of envelope lettering for me to pick the font i liked the most - again went out of her way to make sure i was happy. I will make sure to recommend her to all my friends.
I used A Touch of Ink for invitation Calligraphy. Joan was easy to work with, very responsive via email and best of all, we did it all over email/mail! Joan is based in NJ, me in NYC. She made it really easy for me to pick my style by sending a package full of samples for me to choose from. I sent her my envelopes and less than 2 weeks later they were returned to me perfect and gorgeous. She even did 3 other one offs last minute! Great service all around. Price seems on par with other calligraphers.
I highly recommend Joan, hands down. She was by far the most professional vendor I worked with when planning my wedding. She is extremely detail oriented and doesn't rush through anything (although she did deliver in a pinch!). We used A Touch of Ink for printed envelopes for our wedding invitations. I felt like she really cared about the overall look of our product as much as she would for someone in her own family. She went so above and beyond for us, even purchasing the font to match our invitations to ensure a complete uniform look. Her prices were competitive and her service incredible. I also got to witness her hand-written calligraphy; it's impeccable! Joan is very attentive to calls and emails and overall delivers some of the best service I experienced during the 16 months of planning our wedding. Even after our invitations were sent and we needed a few extra, Joan was kind enough to send us a few extra printed envelopes in a hurry and at no additional cost. I highly recommend her and am so happy I got to experience her wonderful service. Thanks, Joan!!
My place cards looked wonderful and Joan had my cards finished in less than a week!
Joan did an excellent job addressing our invitations. She customizes her style to suit your work and if very friendly and accommodating. The envelopes came out even more beautiful than we could have anticipated. Our envelopes were ready in less than 2 weeks which was extremely comforting. I would highly recommend Joan at "A Touch of Ink" to anyone looking to put the perfect final touch on their invitations.
I had a hard time finding someone or a company that does hand written calligraphy around me. I can across "A Touch of Ink Calligraphy" and from the very first contact everything went perfectly. Joan was more than a pleasure to work with, unfortunately we never got to meet but I will be using her again so there is still hope! Joan was extremely responsive with emails any time of the day. Within 2 weeks I dropped off my envelopes and received back the finished product! Her work is elegant, beautiful and will absolutely set the tone for your wedding - remember invites are the first thing people see about you wedding! I would highly recommend Joan to anyone!!
We had Joan calligraphy our envelopes for our wedding invitations and they came out beautifully. They were dark blue envelopes and we wanted silver ink. The envelopes we used were particularly hard to ink but she did a wonderful job. All of my guests raved about how gorgeous the calligraphy was and was amazed that someone could do that all by hand. Choosing to have the envelopes addressed this way as opposed to having them printed or using labels really put the perfect finishing touch on our invitations and in my opinion is much more classy and elegant. I highly recommend this vendor.
Joan did an absolutely gorgeous job lettering my escort cards in Citadel script for my recent wedding. I was very picky about my wedding stationery and selecting a calligrapher, and looked at over a dozen vendors before deciding that I liked Joan's work the best. I got so many compliments on how beautiful the place cards were. Joan can transform an ordinary piece of stationery into a beautiful work of art!
I can't say enough about the quality of the calligraphy. We wanted to impress people with the invitation to convey the level of wedding we would be having, and the calligraphy by Joan just blew everyone away. We had searched on etsy.com for a calligrapher, but either the demonstrated ability was too novice or price was too high for very experienced work. We found Touch of Ink by chance looking through NYC invitations and found her calligraphy used in a sample invitation suite. EXCELLENT work at a great price! I was specifically looking for someone who would keep each line of calligraphy straight, not leave pencil marks, and stay consistent from card to card (which I saw was lacking from people on etsy.com). HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
Joan is fantastic. I initially contacted her through e-mail inquiring about prices and turn-around time and she e-mailed me back immediately answering my questions (her prices were so reasonable- especially being a bride in NJ- I was seeing prices like $6 per envelope!) and offering to send samples of her work in the color ink (gold) I would like. I received these samples a few days later and they were all beautiful. The process was so easy too. I sent her my envelopes and my guest list and I received them back within 2 weeks. Getting the envelopes calligraphied was definitely the easiest part of my whole wedding planning! I would absolutely use Joan again and again if I ever need calligraphy.
Joan was wonderful - she made sure everything made sense and was beautiful before she began printing!
Joan offers both hand and computer calligraphy. She did a fantastic job on our invitations! Her services were prompt, fairly priced, and friendly. I definitely recommend Joan to all brides who need invitations addressed and/ or any other stationary services. My envelopes were ready in less than a week and she even included a free gift when they were done! I am very pleased with the finished result and we received many compliments from friends and family.
Joan was very easy to work with, was very responsive to my emails and everything came out perfectly. Turn around time was just a few days for computer printing.
I can not ever express the thanks, nor properly express the beauty that calligraphy brings to an invitation. Touch of Ink, made me cry when I saw it all put together.
Joan's work is as beautiful as she is kind. I had the opportunity to work with her for computer calligraphy (for addressing our invitations) and then saw and fell in love with her remarkable hand calligraphy. I returned to her for hand done escort cards, table numbers, and reserved seating signs. She is quick to respond, tremendously accommodating, remarkably precise / detail orientated and extremely generous with her time and expertise. I initially used her because her prices were the best I found, but in the future would use her for any job big or small regardless. She is an absolute pleasure to work with and her calligraphy speaks for itself- it's stunning. Use this vendor and you'll be thrilled.
Very professional work. So easy and fun to work with. Tons of compliments from my guests on the invitation addresses and escort cards. HIGHLY recommend.
