MJW Calligraphy, Inc.

bout the beautiful lettering, even before the wedding!

f my daughter's wedding invitations ahead of schedule and they were absolutely amazing! My daughter and her fiancé were so excited that he matched the calligraphy to their invitation font. Michael is a true professional- he has great communication skills, is organized and dependable, and does extraordinarily beautiful calligraphy. I would recommend him to everyone.

He's responsive to calls, helps with suggestions on appropriate etiquette. Couldn't ask for anything more. Highly recommended to anyone looking for a talented calligrapher.

ready by Wednesday. I gave him less than 72hrs and he did not only do an extraordinary job but he definitely went above and beyond what I expected. His professionalism was top notch. I would recommend this company to anyone that ever asks me about calligraphy. Thanks again Michael!

n incredible job and made our wedding all the more beautiful. Thank you!!!!

Michael's work is not only stunning, he is also a pleasure to work with -- quick to respond to email, courteous, and accommodating. Indeed, our invitations arrived later than expected and I was stressed about the timing, but Michael was able to turn the project around quickly, ensuring our invitations went out on time (and looking great). If you're looking for a calligrapher, I definitely recommend Michael at MJW Calligraphy!

pletely blown away when we received the invitations back from Michael - they are each a piece of art. I sent my invitations out about a week ago and have already received several comments saying specifically how beautiful the calligraphy is! Michael is extremely professional and provided very helpful advice throughout the process, explaining how traditional invitations should be addressed and how to correctly word titles, etc. I would highly recommend Michael to anyone looking for professional, beautiful calligraphy. His work is truly one of a kind. If this is any indication, we loved his work so much that my future mother-in-law will be using him for our rehearsal dinner invitations as well!

and addresses for our inner and outer envelopes. His work was superb! He was incredibly professional, responsive and an absolute delight to collaborate with through the design process. He was patient and worked through several iterations until we perfected the look we were seeking to achieve. We were very focused on etiquette and Michael knew the proper rules for addressing the envelopes and keeping with a traditional, formal presentation. He also turned around our product very quickly, which we truly appreciated. I would 110% recommend Michael for calligraphy services. We have received countless compliments from our guests on our invitations and believe Michael's special touches made our wedding suite that much more unique. Many thanks to MJW Calligraphy for beautiful calligraphy and first class professionalism!!!

ations and added the personal touch we were looking for. We are very lucky to say that we continue to receive compliments. We highly recommend MJW Calligraphy!

on-line, as well as a couple other vendors, and e-mailed for more information. Michael responded immediately with pricing information and said that as soon as we got a proof, he would send us a sample of what he could do for our invitations. The proof he sent was beautiful and we decided to move forward with his company. Am I glad we did!! When we finally got our invitations, we dropped them off on a Saturday and Michael, knowing we were trying to rush, said he would work to get them done by the next weekend. He had them done by Thursday and they looked AMAZING. Michael matched the font of our invitation and the color of the text (a "french blue") perfectly. I couldn't stop staring at them. We had a ton of guests comment on the calligraphy, even my fiance's mother who does some calligraphy herself. She really admired his work and couldn't say enough about his talent. Bottom line is Michael is responsive, professional, and amazingly talented. I hope to go back to him for our place cards if we can find the money in our budget!!

envelopes, I couldn't believe how beaufitul the work was. When we took the invites to the Benjamin Franklin post office down in Philadelphia (a post office that sees A LOT of wedding invitations), the postal service woman said that she had never in her life seen more beautifully addressed invitations. She had to look closely to see that they were actually done by hand...that's how amazing Michaels's work is. If you are a bride looking to add that extra snap of beautiful detail to your wedding, I recommend Michael. You WILL NOT be disappointed. Also, I did a lot of reserach on calligraphers, and Michael's work is second to none win terms of value as well. He is so reasonably priced. Look no further than MJW Calligraphy. He will make your wedding guests talk for weeks just about an invitation! :)

nd he even matched my wedding colors with special ink he formulated. His pricing is very reasonable for the amount of work and talent he puts into every envelope. He did both the outer and inner envelopes for me and they are beautiful. Michael worked very closely with me to make sure that everyone had the correct address and title and was very quick to respond back to my emails. I shipped out the envelopes to him and he shipped them right back in perfect condition. I know everyone that gets them is going to love them and I know I will be using Michael for other services I need. Thank you!!

with me about my wedding envelope needs. Within just a few hours, he emailed me a photo sample and I knew I wanted to work with him. He ended up perfectly matching the ink to my invites, which were a dark, dark blue, and he was always quick to respond throughout the process. When I went to drop my invites off at the post office, the man behind me in line even complemented the beautiful calligraphy. We heard nothing but good things from our guests too. We will be using MJW for our table cards and I know these will turn out beautifully as well.

t recommend him highly enough! He matched ink perfectly to our invitation (a tricky shade of blue), and most importantly created a perfect and gorgeous replica of our invitation cursive, with a little extra flourish that I had requested. He was incredible prompt, professional, helpful and generally wonderful with all communication, and was also VERY reasonably priced (I am a NYC bride getting married in Maine and he was literally half the price of some NY calligraphers I looked at, yet with absolutely top-of-the-line quality). We have received so many compliments from our guests on his work and are just thrilled we chose him! He was recommended to be by a friend who'd used his work and I am so happy to pass along the recommendation to others!

ress the invitations. He is so experienced that he anticipated every possible issue that can come up with addressing invitations properly and caught things that I had missed. He matched the font on the invitations perfectly and his work was impeccable. Each envelope was a work of art...I hated to part with them! His style is classy and elegant. I will definitely use him for our escort cards and table numbers. His prices are extremely reasonable as well. I recommend MJW without reservation.

. I never met Michael in person (all of our correspondences were via email), but I had no doubt early on that he would be a great vendor based on his prompt replies, professionalism, and artistic talent. I sent him a copy of our invitations, and within a couple days, he returned a proof for our envelopes that was the perfect fit: formal, but not stuffy, whimsical but not childish, and certainly not overdone. The aesthetic was spot on, and the place cards and table numbers were equally stunning. We received countless complements from our guests, and I could not have been more pleased. Overall, I would say that Michael's calligraphy is absolutely gorgeous, and he made that step of the wedding planning process easy. Looking back on my wedding, which was over 6 months ago, Michael's calligraphy is one of the details that I cannot imagine our wedding without.

. The turn around time was fast. I highly recommed him.

nd he was always professional and understanding. I would definately recommend him. I give him a 2 THUMBS UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

area who is looking for stress-free results

a wonderful match. We initially agreed to silver ink on our black envelopes. He later called to suggest his mixing of inks so that the ink would better match the matte look of our invitations. He kept in contact with my mom during th process and completed the job early, even catching an error in one of the zip codes. He is a true professional. We will be using him for our seating cards.

ons. My wedding invitation sets were perfect. In addition, Michael is a class act- a gentleman, always on time or early with his work, a perfectionist when it comes to finding mistakes in addresses or titles and accommodating. Look no further!

m. We used navy envelopes with silver ink. It was very fast, no typos, and there was solid communication for the whole process. People have been calling to tell me how great they look. One uncle even said it was like a work of art. I would certainly recommend him to a friend.

rofessional vendors I have dealt with thus far. I was so impressed by how beautiful my envelopes turned out! They look professional and elegant, not to mention budget friendly! I would recommend MJW to everyone looking for a convenient, affordable, and professional calligrapher!

made the envelope addresses into a beautiful work of art. They are so unique and beautiful. I would recommend his services for any upcoming special event. Thank you MJW Calligraphy!

t my guests' houses, I started receiving calls on how beautiful they looked! You will not be disappointed. Also, Michael is a pleasure to work with - he is very accommodating and completes the invitations very promptly. I am going to hire Michael to do my place card seatings for the wedding.

o woek with and the price was unbelievable! I wish I could rate more than 5 stars for value! Michael's work is so professional and so beautiful - I really can't say enough! I would HIGHLY recommend his work! Colleen

We chose MJW Calligraphy and the work was beautiful, affordable and the turnaround time was quick. The amount of time saved by hiring them to do our envelopes was HUGE. I received a lot of compliments about how classy and beautiful the envelopes looked. If I ever need a calligrapher for another special occasion I will definitely used MJW again.

ded to all of my emails very promptly from the very start, and I found his prices to be very reasonable. However, the people who received my invitations seem to think I spent zillions of dollars on calligraphy- because it looks like I did! Michael beautifully, artfully, and creatively matched the script on my invitations for both the outer and inner envelopes. His work is simply exquisite... I honestly didn't even want to mail the invitaions because I just wanted to keep them and cherish them forever! I also must add that his work was extremly careful- he did not make one spelling error! My mom recommended that I check the spelling and addresses before mailing because it is apparently common for calligraphers to make mistakes. I did, and I was pleasantly surprised that every word was absolutely perfect. I just cannot thank Michael enough for making my invitations truly special!

o all correspondances with such promptness and is so easy to work with. The best part, however is his magnificent artisitc skills. I was stunned and blown away by the exquisite work...I honestly could not stop looking at the envelopes once they were shipped back to me. I have received phone calls from family and friends who have also been impressed and in awe of his work. Michael will even spray the items (in our case, envelopes) with a water resistant coating so that the calligraphy remains intact and flawless. I would recommend Michael to anyone wishing to use his calligraphy services, whether it is for a wedding, or any other celebratory event. You will not be disappointed!!!!

g me examples via fax, emails) and was able to show his gorgeous, unique work without meeting in person. Via phone conversations he understood my vision and somehow pictured exactly what I wanted and went above and beyond by adding his suggestions and optimizing my vision. I was so impressed I hired him to do my best friend's bridal shower and cannot wait to give him the credit (5+ stars) he deserves! Simply the best and so pleasant - makes wedding chores fun again!!!

nd care. If you are in search of adding that special personal touch to your wedding invitations I would hands down recommend MJW, Calligraphy you will not be disappointed and your guest will be in awe.
