The Constant Scribe

rful to correspond with, very professional and quick to respond. Additionally, she kept me updated every step of the way and ensured I was happy with the final result. I'm so happy we chose The Constant Scribe for our very special marriage certificate! After displaying it at our upcoming reception, we will be framing this keepsake and hanging it in our home to enjoy for years to come!

uest list!! And her work...oh my goodness, her work! It is in a league of its own! She was able to perfectly match the script font on our invitations, and addressed the dark navy paper beautifully in white gouache ink. I'm so glad we made the decision to hire a calligrapher, and so incredibly thankful that we chose Kim! I thought her prices were extremely reasonable for the quality and timeliness of the work. I only wish we had more things that needed calligraphy! WORK WITH KIM FOR YOUR WEDDING - YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT!!

re is comforting during these busy days leading up to the wedding. I suggest reaching out to Kim to see how she can help you enjoy the journey!

art with our initial phone conversation, Kim was professional, organized, informative, kind and caring. Meeting her in person at her charming studio merely reinforced what I already suspected: that she loves what she does, is really good at it, and cares about her customers' desires and their satisfaction. Our initial request involved an unusual style of lettering and Kim jumped through hoops to make it happen just as we had hoped. I will use her services again (wedding #2!) and can honestly highly recommend her to anyone in need of calligraphy services.

was perfect! The calligraphy is beautiful, and I would recommend her if you are looking for lovely, elegant invitations. I have received nothing but compliments on the calligraphy and invitations.

as such attention to detail and is so very easy to work with. At the last minute we had two additional addresses for her and she not only addressed them that day but mailed them out for us. She is a treasure! I would highly recommend The Constant Scribe. You will not be disappointed.

er for all occasions. Hope to use her services again in the future!

ent in steering you in the right direction, even if you have questions that are not about the invitations, or printed materials. She will put your mind at ease. She is a treasure!!!!

to land on something that I was ecstatic about. She was always responsive, easy to work with, and always delivered our items early. The process was completely stress free. Kim helped us with our invitation, name cards, and signs for our wedding. We received so many compliments from our guests on the elegance of these items and they “never saw these ideas before”. Guests were even taking pictures of the items and posting them on Facebook! They were truly unique and beautiful. I was beyond thrilled with the result and Kim was simply fabulous.

ploy her no matter your driving distance. One in a million!

ter calligrapher to make what ended up being a truly unique treasure we'll keep for the rest of our lives. She made room for our somewhat belated request in her busy schedule, was communicative and enthusiastic, checked in with us at every stage of the process, and even gave us flowers when we came to pick up the final product! We felt like we had a partner in the process, and many guests commented on what a wonderful keepsake she had made for us. Highly, highly recommended.

tremely friendly and very helpful as I was not familiar with all the wedding lingo. Kim had our envelopes completed in a weekend and they looked fabulous! She also completed some straggler addresses for me in a day after getting them to her last minute. I would highly recommend kim for any calligraphy needs!!! Absolutely a pleasure to work with!!!

ering all my questions and delivered a beautiful product. She matched the font from our invitation and it looked amazing! Her scheduling was stress free so in the event that you need to make a change or have something redone, it was done quickly and with time to spare. I highly recommend Kim and will use her again!

etely different script for our escort cards, Kim completely put the finishing touch on our beautiful day. The work was elegant and high quality and she explained the process and the different options very well. I can't wait to find another reason to use Kim in the future! Thank you!!!

rompt in responding (within several hours!) and seemed to ask all the right questions from the beginning. Not only was she super professional, she was also very helpful and enthusiastic from the very first email. After sending a questionnaire to fill out, she was able to provide a detailed quote and present several ideas for how to best complement my wedding suite with calligraphy. Throughout the entire process, Kim was extremely helpful and responsive - sending numerous emails and pictures of her progress along the way. I was so excited to get the finished product that I could hardly wait to open the box. Wow! You really will not believe how beautiful her handwriting is until you see it in person. This has been the best decision I have made for my wedding thus far. She has also been the easiest vendor to work with. Kim, thank you! You are truly talented.

stions to make sure she understood my vision and even suggested tying in a theme from our wedding invitations to the sign to create similarity. Kim did great a keeping me in the loop on her progress, sending me pictures along the way to ensure accuracy and that I was happy with the final product. She is a real expert at what she does and its clear that she loves it!!

o impressed with her work. She is very reliable and her work is impeccable. She truly takes pride in what she does and and it is evident in envelope. She is a true artist and I will definitely be contacting her again in the future to help with other elements for my big day!

enough! if you are considering a calligrapher for any portion of your wedding planning, you will not regret going with the constant scribe.

he guided me through the process, made recommendations, was incredibly patient when my invites got lost in the mail and very accommodating throughout the process. Not to mention the calligraphy done is absolutely gorgeous. I highly recommend using The Constant Scribe for any calligraphy needs.

h invites. I had ivory paper, with black letterpress for our invites and wanted to have the envelopes match. I looked online and found Kim. Let me just say, she not only is THE FASTEST responder ever, which is such a blessing when trying to figure out wedding plans, but she is excited to be working with brides! I was so happy to work with her, and she made me that much more excited to send out our invites! I had to have a quick turnaround, given that I made the decision last minute to have calligraphy done, and she made sure they were done in a timely fashion. They were PERFECT. The font matched our invites wonderfully. My dad, who is a typical guys guy, looked at them and said WOW I LOVE THEM! I couldn't be happier about our envelopes. They are gorgeous. Kim was a blessing and added touches to our wedding that couldn't come from anywhere else. I am so happy I ended up meeting her, and truly want everyone in the area to know how wonderful she is!!! THANK YOU KIM!

letter delivered to my fiancee after we had finished dinner (and after I had excused myself so that I could surreptitiously watch her read the letter). Because the letter played such a central role in the proposal, presentation was very important. Kim delivered flawlessly. Her calligraphy is beautiful, and she even created a special envelope to fit the letter such that the pages did not need to be folded. To this day, my fiancee will pull the letter out from time to time, and (second to her ring, I think) it is her most treasured keepsake from the proposal.

end Kim without hesitation, and I was the mother of the bride AND have planned large scale events professionally. I will use Kim again when I need calligraphy. She is the BEST!

so many decisions at this point in the planning process that it was truly a life-saver to work with someone that could guide me through my own thoughts. My goal was to have a the beautiful, classic calligraphy with a touch of modern flare. Kim understood right away, was quick to send me an example of what she was thinking, and was able to complete them all within a short period of time. Countless guests of ours commented on the calligraphy, both young and old, which is a testamate to the incredible work she did. I took a picture of each envelope as I sealed them just because each one was more beautiful than the last and I was so proud to show off Kim's craft.

e compliments on how elegant the handwriting was on all of our envelopes, the quality of her work certainly did not go unnoticed. We were so happy with how everything turned out that we had her also do the table cards for our wedding day.

kind- I highly recommend her to anyone that needs calligraphy done.

, she is professional, timely and very easy to work with. I would highly recommend her to anyone planning a wedding or other event.

had picked the one I liked, I took them to Kim and she turned them into the most beautiful envelopes I've ever seen. I almost didn't want to part with them! She was extremely responsive and performed the work quickly. We couldn't have been more pleased! I knew I wanted to use Kim, so I don't know how much this typically costs, but I feel like she could charge significantly more, especially for working on specialized envelopes. Should the need arise, we would definitely use The Constant Scribe again and sing her praises to anyone who asks!

Kim's attention to detail (she reviewed every address of our 250 guests-- amazing!), her more than timely correspondence, and her willingness to work closely with brides to make this process simple and enjoyable were so wonderful and beyond appreciated. Even when we had to send more invitations weeks later, Kim graciously completed additional envelopes for us, and even mailed them directly from her studio so as to get them to our guests quickly. Our guests were blown away by her beautiful calligraphy. It was such a pleasure working with Kim, and we have already referred her to all of my engaged friends and cousins! She truly is a dream for any bride! I am so grateful to have worked with her during this process, and I will cherish our beautiful invitations. Thank you, Kim! -Sarah from Hinsdale, IL

ch I downloaded off the Internet)! The outside of my envelopes looked amazing...I had so many friends and family tell me they didn't want to throw the envelope away because they looked so beautiful. Her service was timely and the quality was just beautiful! HIGHLY recommend! And I loved shopping local. :)

e, she was informative, she was enthusiastic, and she was super super super nice. I planned my wedding in Chicago from China, and as you may imagine, it got very stressful at times. Kim not only made the most beautiful products (she did my table cards, my name cards, a sign for guests to sign the guestbook and take polaroids, and my envelope addresses), but she was so patient and kind and fun throughout the entire process. I felt like I had hired my close friend to help me with wedding stuff. When I had made a mistake with my addresses, she very very kindly made the adjustments right away. When I had asked her to make the guestbook sign, I didn't know how I wanted it to look, and asked her to decide for me and just go for it without direction! That's how much, after working with her for a short while, I came to trust her judgement and talent. When we received the addressed envelopes, my fiancé was more blown away by our envelopes from Kim than he was our actual invitations! They were perfect and beautiful, and all our guests commented on her calligraphy. Thank you, Kim, for being so nice and so wonderful. You made all the difference in the world when I was planning my wedding. You're awesome!

ved the envelopes. I look forward to using Kim for our place cards and would recommend her to my friends and family.

ch a great job! Not only did she give her opinion on everything but she truly put her heart into each of our pieces! After the wedding, my husband and I agreed that she made our wedding planning so much easier! She was just a joy to work with and so accommodating. If you are on the fence about calligraphy, Kim is the best investment you could make! I promise you will not be disappointed!!!

tc.) but she sent photo samples confirming the look and style prior to addressing the envelopes. I and both mothers of the bride and groom were beyond thrilled with the results. We've had several guests contact us specifically to compliment the calligraphy! But the cherry on top was definitely Kim's professionalism and friendliness! She was very prompt returning all emails and always checked in to give us a status during the process. I would highly recommend Kim to anyone and everyone!

t ideas about the style of type that we wanted. Kim was able to give us choices and selections, and we are so thankful for her help! She matched the calligraphy on the envelopes to the font we used on our invitations, so everything was a cohesive and beautiful presentation. We used a very traditional style and wording, and the calligraphy was the first impression for our guests on the style of the wedding. I got messages from friends remarking on how gorgeous our invitations were, and that was definitely because of the beautiful calligraphy! (The invitations themselves were very simple.) We also had a significant number of international invitations, and Kim had those ready for us a week before the rest of the invitations so that we could send them out sooner. Everything about Kim's work was great. She is thoughtful and kind, so she's incredibly pleasant to work with. She is knowledgeable and talented, so any questions we had about etiquette, she was able to answer, and her work was stunning. We are so glad Kim did our invitations, and we would heartily recommend her!

a doubt!

rough the process of creating wedding announcements for my January 2013 wedding. Kim's calligraphy is art because of her extraordinary talent and knowledge of her craft. As an artist, she also has an incredible sense of style and taste. Because of these attributes, she transformed my wedding announcements into something beautiful that was far more wonderful than my limited imagination could have conceived. Working with Kim will give any bride peace of mind (which, as we all know, is important!) because of the immense confidence that can be placed in her, both as a kind person and as a skilled calligrapher. I personally felt assured and stress-free while working with Kim, and ended up with beautiful, customized calligraphy!

pliments on the invites from our guests. I would recommend Kim to anyone that is looking for a calligrapher for their special day!

e always quick and friendly, not automated. My daughter and I had the opportunity to meet with Kim and she made us feel very welcomed and gave us all the time we needed. She showed us samples of her work and she knew exactly what we were looking for. She was very thorough in all aspects of the job and even caught a mistake on our address list. She’s no doubt a perfectionist! On top of all that, our cost was less than originally quoted after she saw the envelopes she was going to work with. Imagine, in this day and age, someone charging less than quoted! The final outcome…Amazing! Kim’s work is absolutely stunning and the whole process went smoothly. She is a true professional that has mastered her craft. She’s a rare find and we hope to have the privilege to work with her again.

with throughout my wedding planning. Kim helped me find the perfect script to match my invitation. We chose the citadel font and it was so classic and elegant. Our guests gave us so many compliments. When I found out that the company I ordered my invitations from were running 2 weeks behind schedule, Kim was very accommodating. Not only did she work overtime to complete my envelopes, she finished them early and there were 270 long difficult Greek last names. I also want to mention that she is very detail oriented. When I sent her my guest list, she took the time to study each address carefully and caught multiple mistakes that I had made. Kim was very easy to communicate with over email and would always get back to me right away to answer my questions. I was going to order Crane place cards that were over my budget and I emailed her for advice. She is so talented and creative and came up with an even more beautiful place card design. She custom designed each name card to fit on my favors perfectly. They turned out better than the Crane ones and I stayed within my budget. Kim did an excellent job designing my table numbers. I gave her the picture frames and she found beautiful paper to match and the numbers looked so pretty. I highly recommend Kim! Kim is not only an amazing calligrapher she is a wonderful designer who truly cares about her brides. She is very professional, her calligraphy is flawless and she is such a pleasure to work with! We couldn't be happier with the results.

ont of my invitations perfectly. I felt at ease knowing my invitations were with Kim and they turned out beautifully. My guests were impressed and so was I!

nside addressed faster than we expected. I can't express how beautiful the envelopes turned out. A friend of mine told me she was going to save the envelopes because of how beautiful they turned out. Kim also did the place cards for the wedding and again she did a fantastic job and faster than we expected. I would recommend her without hesitation. Annie

es the time to understand what you want and again the quality was outstanding. They are so beautiful and I cannot wait to send them out!! I would recommend Kim to everyone I know.

ed any questions we had. She returned emails and phone calls immediatly. She was so nice and her work was amazing. I highly recommend her, in fact my other daughter is getting married next year and we definitely will be using Kim, The Constant Scribe, again

tion to detail. One talented woman!

edding industry. Kim listened to the style and look I was going for and helped me bring my ideas into reality and exceeded my expectations. Her work is beautiful and I am so grateful I found her. Working with Kim was so easy as she is diligent in responding to her clients. The thing I really loved about working with her is she asked me how I prefer to be contacted, phone, email or text. Email is easier for me since I work a lot but always have my phone with me, so it was easy for us to go back and forth on ideas. Once we finalized the style we were going to use Kim went straight to work and before I knew it she was emailing me to tell me my invitations were ready. Another great quality about working with Kim was her quick turn around time. Overall, I truly enjoyed working with The Constant Scribe in every aspect and would recommend to anyone looking for a calligrapher please call Kim from The Constant Scribe!

es are INCREDIBLY reasonable, especially for the level of work you receive. I can honestly say that she was the one aspect of my wedding planning that I never had to worry about for a second. I look forward to finding another reason to use her services soon! Thank you for everything Kim! You really are incredible!

sing the same font. Her work was amazing, she kept me up to date on the whole process, and even caught a mistake I had made with a zip code. She had all 70 of my invitations addressed in record time, and they were carefully packaged for pickup. Her rates were extremely reasonable, and she was gracious and enthusiastic throughout the process.

y to emails (major brownie points in my book). She did a fantastic job and really worked with us to find a lettering that matched the style of our event. She also sent me an email the day before the wedding sending her congratulations. It was the sweetest thing! Overall I was very impressed.

I hope to have an event soon where I can use her again! :)

asy to work with, speedy and kind. A great person to have on board for your wedding =) Highly recommended.

gether on ideas. She is so creative and gifted and she helped guide me on making decisions that were perfect! She did my wedding invitation envelopes and my place cards along with a personal note that I included with each invite AND 2 beautiful poems that I just had framed. I cannot say ENOUGH about the finished products. They are absolutely BEAUTIFUL! She finished everything on-time if not a few days early. (And ladies, you know when planning a wedding having things done in a timely manner or early is so appreciated!) I will use her again, for sure!! I actually cannot WAIT to find another project for her to do!!:) Thank you Kim!

they looked so beautiful. Kim put the finishing touch on them! Kim really listened to what we liked, what we wanted, and had our invitations completed promptly by (before!) the promised date.

iends moved and I negated to update an address) at no charge. I continue to receive so many compliments on the perfection of her lettering. And the icing on top (of all her greatness), is that her services are extremely affordable! Please heed my advice and look no futher as Kim is the person to hire for all your calligraphy needs!

professional and worth every penny. You will not be disappointed. I plan to utilize the services of The Constant Scribe for all future jobs that come my way.
