I am fortunate to have received a beautiful end of the year teacher sign made by Lorraine Crawford and I knew I wanted her to make the signs my grandsons would carry in my daughter’s wedding. They were fabulous and the big talk at the wedding. I would highly recommend this lovely lady’s talent.
Lorraine was so nice to take on a small job for me for some labels for a Gatsby-themed bridal shower. We discussed the look I was going for and she surpassed my expectations. Would highly recommend using her services.
Lorraine was such a pleasure to work with and her work is beyond amazing! My husband has a tile business so we had the idea of using tiles for our place cards and table numbers, and Lorraine made that vision come true! It required much detail and Lorraine did such a fantastic job. We received so many compliments on her work. We highly recommend using Calligraphy By Crawford- you will absolutely love her work and how wonderful she is with communicating with you to make sure she creates your exact vision!
Lorraine was an absolute pleasure to work with and the results were better than we could have imagined!! We found Calligraphy By Crawford on The Knot prior to our wedding since we were looking for someone to do our invitations. Lorraine was professional, accommodating, and made fantastic suggestions based on her years of experience. We also had her design our seating assignment on a large mirror that was placed at our reception! Both the invitations and the mirror were amazing and we received countless compliments on both! If you have the need, I highly recommend using Calligraphy By Crawford! You will be thrilled with the results!
We loved working with Lorraine at Calligraphy by Crawford! The calligraphy for our wedding reception place cards is so beautiful. Lorraine is very easy to work with and provides such quality results.
Loraine was so wonderful to work with. She wrote over 100 addresses in the most beautiful calligraphy. I will be using her again for the signs for the wedding. I highly recommend her!
I can not express enough how impressed and happy we were with the work that you did. We had wedding invitations, signs, mirrors etc done and nothing less than amazing. Such a pleasure to deal with and great pricing.
I had a great experience working with Lorraine! She did placecards and a welcome mirror sign for our wedding. She was super easy to get in touch with and would respond right away to any question. She was able to get everything done with a short turnaround and for a reasonable price. Highly recommend!
Lorraine was absolutely great to work with! She is very easy to get in touch with and responds right away. We had over close to 200 wedding envelopes for her to address with calligraphy and every single one of them looked amazing. We received many compliments, some saying they looked "elegant". Lorraine made working with her a simple process. Highly recommended!
Lorraine designed and Drew my album cover and the work was amazing and exquisite. She really is a one of a kind true talent.
Lorraine completed my seating chart for my wedding. The paper board I brought for Lorraine to use was not the best, but Lorraine put those beautiful hands of hers to work and the results was very neat, breathtaking and just gorgeous! I wish I could attach her work to this review. If you are looking for someone that will deliver on time, very pleasant, make you laugh then you have the right person Calligraphy by Crawford.

Excellent work performed on mirror and invitations. Crawford presented ideas and eased my concerns. She has a vast knowledge of the art of Calligraphy. I've also viewed her work at different Venues, it's difficult to get to her table because there is a high interest level in her work.
I wish her continued success.

Lorraine was a DREAM to work with and the final product was AMAZING. Can not say enough good things!
You will not be disappointed!!!
The best service ever. I would not ever use anyone else. Lorraine is a perfectionist and so creative. We are still getting compliments from her work.

everything!
Calligraphy by Crawford will absolutely be my go to calligrapher! About five days before my daughter's 9/2/2017 wedding we received our table tent cards from an Etsy vendor completely blank! I found Lorraine on The Knot and quickly put out a call for help! Lorraine answered the call without hesitation. I dropped off 80 cards on a Tuesday evening and she had them all done on Wednesday night! Lorraine's work is beautiful and clean! The cards were just lovely! Lorraine didn't try to gouge us and her cost was extremely reasonable! Lorraine took the stress out of a horrible situation! She was a dream to work with and I would highly recommend Lorraine for any calligraphy work you may have for your special events! Thank you Lorraine, we cannot thank you enough!

Lorraine was able to put our vision down on paper and the result was above and beyond what we could imagine. Lorraine created 3 individual, Gorgeous, Family Trees for our family. We requested 3 items and not only did she deliver amazing work, but we received our Trees a week ahead of time! I cannot thank you enough for how beautiful the Family Trees came out. I would definitely recommend Calligraphy by Crawford! Also, the work requested was both in English and Spanish! Thanks so much!!

Calligraphy by Crawford did a beautiful job on my place cards. The calligraphy is just perfect! I would recommend Calligraphy by Crawford to everyone!
Lorraine is amazing! She is so talented and a joy to work with! I was unsure what style I wanted to go with, so when I met with her, I brought my invitation and she matched the calligraphy to the script on our invites. She completed my invitation envelopes on time, (actually earlier). She was easy to communicate with and was so nice to show me an example envelop prior to doing all the rest. I am so happy I found her and can't wait to have her do more calligraphy for me in my future. If you are looking for the best calligrapher in the Philadelphia, she is it!

Working with Lorraine from Calligraphy By Crawford was a pleasure. Not only is she well priced, professional and friendly, she is so, so accommodating. She was able to work with my schedule and rush deliver our place cards. Our guests were so impressed with our wedding invitations that many of them saved the envelopes! Lorraine provided us with both inner and outer envelopes as well as our place cards. I highly recommend Lorraine and also highly recommend getting calligraphy for your invitations as well as place cards as it really brought it to another level - everyone was so impressed!
Calligraphy by Crawford is simply amazing . Our wedding was fast approaching and we needed an artist to work on our place cards, seating chart, and welcome signs.My hubby found on Crawford on knot.com, we contact her and schedule appointment to see her work. Lauren was very professional and flexible. She was open to listen to your ideas and concerns. Moreover, she suggested unique ways to make our mirrors (place card, seating chart outstanding). She provided pictures of our project for approval each week. We had alot of compliments on the project she did and I highly recommend her if you have any project. She's the best.
Thank you
Lorraine did an outstanding job for my entire wedding suite. I even heard from my wedding guests how beautiful the calligraphy was on the invites! She was great on a time crunch, very professional and helpful. But her work was the real testament, the work she did with my seating chart was amazing, and not easy on unusual paper! I loved her work, and she's sweet and easy to collaborate with. I would highly recommend Calligraphy by Crawford for anyone!
Lorraine was so amazing to work with! She did my wedding seating chart on a large antique mirror. I showed her a few pictures of the vibe i was going for, and she took it from there! She had her own ideas and I fully trusted her professional opinion. I am so happy I chose Calligraphy by Crawford, the mirror turned out beautiful. I would recommend to all!!
Lorraine was wonderful to work with. She came to my rescue and was able to get my shower invitations completed quickly. I found out the hard way that a 5x5 envelope can't go through a printer because of size. She will be completing the wedding invitations and place cards. I have received many compliments on how beautiful Her handwriting is. A true piece of art!
Loved working with Lorraine - super easy and convenient, and she was easy to reach. She provided an estimate and sent me a sample via text and provided updates through email, so I never felt out of the loop for the process. On top of that, the envelopes were beautiful and done earlier than expected. I would definitely recommend!
Lorraine is amazing!! She is so personable, sweet, fast and reasonably priced for the hard awesome work she does! I would highly recommend Lorraine to everyone!
