We hired Vanessa at VCalligraphy to hand-write the recipient names and addresses for our wedding invitations. We really liked the personal touch that the calligraphy provided for our guests, and the overall style looked great and matched the visual theme of our wedding. VCalligraphy did a great job and we would recommend!
Vanessa's calligraphy is beautiful, and working with her is so easy. We're local, so she was fine with us picking up and dropping off our wedding invitations. She did an amazing job, and I would recommend her to anyone.
Vanessa’s calligraphy speaks for itself- absolutely beautiful and classy. Everyone loves her art on our invitations and working with her has been the easiest part of the process. With having a big guest list, there is definitely room for human error (on my part) and she had so much patience with me when I needed an address fixed or added someone else almost at the last minute! I couldn’t recommend Vanessa and VCalligraphy enough!!
Vanessa was a delight to work with! Not only is she amazing at her craft, (her calligraphy is absolutely stunning and our invitations are to date my favorite part of this process-- we've had so many compliments on them after sending them out!) but she is also extremely professional, approachable and punctual. We cannot recommend Vanessa and VCalligraphy highly enough!
Vanessa did an amazing job customizing my invitation and envelope exactly how we envisioned them. I would recommend her to anybody! So easy to work with and an incredible product.
Vanessa was such a pleasure to work with. I was able to drop off and pick up from her whenever my work schedule allowed, which was huge for me. I received so many compliments on her work - she really elevated the look of our invitations. I can't recommend her work enough!
Vanessa is wonderful! Not only is she extremely talented, she is a pleasure to work with. She is bringing our ideas to life and so much more. We highly recommend her for any calligraphy needs.
Vanessa's work is beautiful! She is easy to work with and quick to respond. I received many compliments on her work for my wedding invitations! I would definitely recommend Vanessa to anyone looking for a calligrapher!
Vanessa was recommended to me by the staff at Scriptura. She did wonderful work and was able to match the slightly unusual ink color on our invitations almost perfectly. We received so many compliments on the beauty of our invitations. If I ever need calligraphy services again I know right where to go!
Vanessa with quick and easy to work with, and her calligraphy was beautiful. I got a lot of compliments on my wedding invitations.
Vanessa's work is stunning! She truly is an artist, and her work is a keepsake-material. I saved my place setting cards that she created and framed them. Gorgeous, gorgeous work!
Vanessa's work speaks for itself, but since it cannot actually speak, I'll speak for it. She is incredible easy to work with and very accommodating to your wants and needs. She understands this field and is able to create the most beautiful work in a timely and professional way! I would recommend her to anyone.
TEN STARS!! So, I believe that your invitations are the first glimpse to your guests as to your daughter’s wedding, therefore, I wanted them to be perfect. Vanessa is an artist and provided just that!! Professional, efficient and a pleasure to deal with...You pay for what you get and V Calligraphy is worth every penny!!
Absolutely amazing! Vanessa is so easy to work with and truly wants to make sure that each detail of your big day is flawless. Her work is stunning and she brought my dreams to life. I brought her some ideas and what we ended up with was better than I could've imagined. I'm so excited for my guests to receive their invitations. Thank you, Vanessa! If you are looking for a fantastic calligrapher who 1. knows how to make something unique and beautiful 2. is easy to work with and 3. always prompt in responses and delivery, go with V Calligraphy, you won't be disappointed!!
Look no further for a calligrapher! Vanessa is the BEST! She did my entire invitation (which we had engraved) as well as the envelopes. Her handwriting is BEAUTIFUL! Working with her has been the easiest part of my wedding planning! She is very easy to work with, extremely easy to get in touch with, and very prompt with her work. I highly recommended her!
V Calligraphy is the BEST calligrapher out there. Vanessa's work is so AMAZING that it makes the entire invitation worth it. She was the easiest person to work with and will help you make decisions while being totally flexible and accommodating. HIGHLY highly recommend!!
Vanessa's work is truly exceptional. She did the calligraphy for both of my daughters' weddings, one in 2014 and one in 2017. The calligraphy added so much elegance to the invitations. We received many compliments. Also, she was gracious, organized, and provided the work on the exact date promised.
I highly recommend V Calligraphy. Besides her beautiful and timeless work, Vanessa was easy to work with and very efficient with my large order!!
Vanessa was the best. We used VCalligraphy for our wedding invitation envelopes and could not have had a better experience. The calligraphy itself was stunning and we received so many compliments. It was one of the few wedding things that I truly felt 100% satisfied with. On top of that, Vanessa was so easy and enjoyable to work with. She was efficient, pleasant, and super talented. Highly recommend!
Vanessa was so wonderful to work with. We absolutely loved our wedding invitations and her calligraphy was perfect. She was so easy to work with too and delivered everything even earlier than promised. I had screwed up the addresses on a couple of our invitations and she re-did them for free. It was so nice of her and everything turned out beautifully. I highly recommend her.
Vanessa was absolutely wonderful to work with! Everything always came in extremely quickly and was so high quality. Her prices are a steal for the quality of the product. She was also extremely easy to communicate with and always responded to any email or text within the same day. Can't recommend her highly enough!
So the message under the 5 stars says, "Wow, the best ever!" This is 100% accurate for Vanessa. I'm being biased but I have never seen prettier invitations before. I had the invitation and crest made at a local vendor in Baton Rouge and when I showed them her work, they couldn't get over how beautiful it was. They now send brides interested in calligraphy for their invitations to her. I couldn't be more satisfied with the final product. Vanessa is the best and will go above and beyond for you! (She started working on my invites the day after Mardi Gras and if you are from south Louisiana, you know what that says about a person!) Thank you so much, Vanessa. You deserve all the praises! My invitations were one of my favorite wedding details.
Vanessa is amazing to work with!! She is talented, gave me great advice, and her work was exactly what I wanted as the perfect touch to our wedding invitations. She was communicative and finished everything within our deadline, while also making sure every single envelope was perfect! I would highly recommend her and am so glad I was able to work with her!!
I used VCalligraphy for my wedding invitations and I was more than pleased. She was professional, she met the deadlines we set and her work was gorgeous. This was the perfect finishing touch to my invitations.
Vanessa is so AWESOME and wonderful to work with!!! She did the calligraphy for our invitations and they turned out perfect!!! EVERYONE raved about how beautiful there were. She also did the signs that we displayed at the wedding and they too were great!! I HIGHLY recommend Vanessa! Shes reliable and works FAST!!! You won't be let down by choosing her.
Vanessa is so talented and amazing to work with! She did my invitations and inner/outer envelope addresses. Everything turned out so beautiful. She is the best! I highly recommend her!!!
I first saw Vanessa's work when I received my best friend's invitation in the mail in 2014. She had chosen the more traditional calligraphy in gold in on a white envelope and it was so exquisite that I wanted to frame the inner envelope with our names on it. I don't know that I've ever remembered an invitation until then.
When it came time to find a calligrapher for our own wedding, I immediately went back and asked my friend who her calligrapher had been. I saw Vanessa's modern calligraphy style online and knew it was exactly what we wanted. I asked for gold ink on light blue envelopes and the results were stunning. Truly. And the font was such a PERFECT match to the text on our invitation that I could not have asked for anything better had I planned it. Artistically, Vanessa nailed it.
Professionally? She nailed it too. There was initially a snafu with the number of envelopes ordered which put a slight delay on our time table. It was prime season for addressing spring and summer envelopes, so I felt horrible breaking up her rhythm. But she still got everything done timely and impeccably. Shortly after receiving the envelopes, I needed to make 2 corrections (one of my friends moved and I had provided an incorrect spelling of a name on another). Vanessa had held on to a couple extra envelopes and had them completed promptly.
Did I mention how beautifully packaged the envelopes were when I received them? I was floored!
I can't say enough about Vanessa's work. She's phenomenal and very reasonably priced (worth EVERY penny). Our wedding hasn't happened yet, but I'm confident that our calligraphy and invitation suite is going to be my absolute favorite thing about the wedding aside from marrying my fiance!
Vanessa was amazing. Her work is impeccable... it is is classic and just beautiful. I got so many compliments on the envelopes and am so happy I was able to work with Vanessa. I would recommend her to any new bride and fully plan on using her in the future... whether it be a birthday party or baby shower. HER WORK IS 100% AMAZING.
Vanessa did an excellent job with the calligraphy and signage for our wedding. She was incredibly responsive and accommodated me after several last minute changes. People gave me so many compliments on her work, including someone who said that it was the best calligraphy he has "ever seen!" Huge compliments to Vanessa.
I was obsessed with my calligraphy! Vanessa did such a gorgeous job and I was very picky about how I wanted things. My envelopes came out so elegant and beautiful. She was extremely reasonably priced and super quick! I would definitely recommend her to another bride 100%.
Vanessa is INCREDIBLE! Not only did she meet our deadline on short notice, even after the invitations arrived late, the quality of her work was perfection! Gorgeous lettering, perfect ink color selection, and she barely used the extra envelopes!
I HIGHLY recommend vcalligraphy for all projects and hope to have another chance to work with Vanessa again!
We used VCalligraphy to address the inner and outer envelopes for our wedding invitations. Our invitations looked beautiful and professional!
Vanessa was great, and our invitations were so beautiful- we had navy envelopes and used white calligraphy. I live in Houston, so I had my invitations sent directly to Vanessa once printed, she addressed them, and then forwarded them on to me. Everything worked very well, Vanessa was easy to work with, and I highly recommend VCalligraphy!
Absolutely the best! Vanessa's work is beautiful. Her artwork took our invitations to the next level and we received numerous compliments from guests. She is incredibly easy to work with and her prices were very reasonable. She delivered on time. Hiring Vanessa was one of the best decisions I made.
Vanessa was AMAZING....She was very kind and very professinal, and everything was perfect,delivered with time to spare. She was also VERY accomodating b/c we lived out of state. I HIGHLY recommend her!!
Vanessa was lovely to work with. She was professional and prompt in communication, and her finished product was really beautiful. We were very happy that we found this vendor, through The Knot, and we will happily recommend her services to future brides. MOB June '15
Vanessa was easy to work with, really quick, and reasonably priced. I HIGHLY recommend her work. Our invitations were beautiful, and having her address them not only saved us time, but also made them truly look like works of art.
If you need calligraphy, you need Vanessa.
My invitations were GORGEOUS and I received so many compliments on them. She was a pleasure to work with, quick to respond, and very helpful on invitation etiquette. I highly recommend her to all brides!
Vanessa did a beautiful job on my wedding invitations, as well as my place-cards for my bridal luncheon! Everyone complimented me on how beautifully perfect her calligraphy was and how elegant it was. It was one of the most talked about things of my wedding. I would definitely recommend using Vanessa for your calligraphy needs. She is responsive, prompt and easy to work with. I will definitely be using her again for any future needs I may have.
Vanessa's work is absolutely flawless. The calligraphy was my favorite part about my wedding invitations and I received so many compliments from guests on her work. Not only that, but she was such a pleasure to work with. I am planning on using her for all of my future calligraphy needs.
I absolutely loved our wedding invitations from VCalligraphy. When I got them in the mail, I was shocked because the calligraphy was even more beautiful in person. Vanessa was so sweet and did a wonderful job on our invitations. She was also so fast! I would definitely recommend her!!!
Vanessa of VCalligraphy was absolutely wonderful in assisting us with the calligraphy for our wedding. We had never used a calligrapher before and even though we are located in TX, Vanessa was easy to communicate with and always quick to respond via email. She answered all of our questions and made us feel extremely confident in her knowledge and abilities.The envelopes we wanted to use for our invitations were slightly textured and Vanessa was so great to let us send her a sample to test before making a final decision. She not only gave us beautiful calligraphy on our envelopes but she also did all of our escort cards. The turn-around time for both items was quick and her pricing is great for any budget! We would immediately recommend VCalligraphy to anyone looking for the perfect calligraphy to add that special touch to their big day!
I got so many compliments on Vanessa's work! SO MANY... beyond that, Vanessa is a dream to work with. Quick, professional, and friendly. Could you ask for more?
Calligraphy can be extremely pricey, but it is so beautiful and convienent. I searched online for about a week for reasonable pricing and found Vanessa. She was so sweet and professional- She emailed me in an extremely timely manner and talked to my mother on the phone several times about any changes throughout the process.
I did not live in New Orleans and mailed my envelopes to Vanessa. I was worried about mailing all my stationery, however it was such a breeze and not a thing was damaged throughout the process. She lets you schedule your calligraphy months in advance. I mailed her my envelopes when it was time, and I received them back early and they were perfect. She kept the remainder of my envelopes and my mother called her several times for additional envelopes to be addressed, as well as mistakes that may have been found on the envelopes. I would suggest her for any brides that may be looking for calligraphy!
Vanessa's calligraphy really made our invitations. She was fast, affordable, and really easy to work with. She whipped up some replacements for addresses and names we'd gotten wrong and even threw in a free envelope right before the wedding for someone who had never received theirs! Thanks Vanessa!
Vanessa is AMAZING! After briefly experimenting with the idea of doing the calligraphy myself to save money, I realized it takes extreme skill and it was worth the cost! As a very selective designer and bride myself, there wasn't one thing I wanted to change about her style. I am so thankful that my mom found her here and referred her to me because of her photos and excellent reviews, and she delivered exactly that. Also, she was significantly less expensive than other calligraphers, but I liked her work so much better! She also custom mixed me a wonderful charcoal grey to match my design for only a slight extra charge. I am so thankful she caught an envelope size error after miscommunication with my printer, and she was so helpful in fixing it! And she worked with my deadline to get them out on time, and worked really hard to make up for the lost time that wasn't her fault after the envelope mishap. I am sooo grateful for her hard work!
Again, thank you so much Vanessa for everything! So many of my guests raved and raved on my invitations and your calligraphy, keeping them because they are that beautiful. I hope I have the opportunity to use you in the future!
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
LOVE LOVE the way my invitations came out after sending them to Vanessa! I received so many compliments on the calligraphy! Her style is so beautiful, I wish I could have had an envelope made out for myself just because I was so obsessed with the calligraphy!!
I used VCalligraphy for my wedding invitations. At the time I was still struggling to get all of the pieces of my invites solidified. I am a graphic designer, so I designed my own invites.. but that led to so much more decision making and leg work than I anticipated. Vanessa make the calligraphy part of this process so easy! She has multiple styles and will work with you to find the perfect ink/envelope combo. She even saved me money by suggesting that I add the envelope liners after the calligraphy was done!
Did I mention that she was really fast? She was really fast!! I had 143 invites which were finished in no time, and she has continued to address new invites, as I forgot a few people with the first order.
I'm so glad I chose VCalligraphy! The perfect touch of sophisticated and casual for my swampy-style New Orleans wedding invitations.
Thanks Vanessa!
I've known for a long time that I wanted calligraphy for my invites. I was so happy when I found VCalligraphy! Vanessa did a beautiful job on my Save the Dates, every envelope was flawless. I've gotten so many positive comments on her work.
For my upcoming wedding, I have a very specify look I'm trying to achieve and Vanessa has taken the time to work with me on ink color and font style. I can't wait to see the final product! I would definitely recommend her services to any bride out there!
Vanessa is so easy to work with, and her calligraphy is absolutely stunning! She was very professional and guided me through the entire process & timeline for addressing my wedding invitations. I loved how she took the extra time to match the calligraphy ink to the ink on my invitations and was more than accommodating with my "last minute" additions! I highly recommend V Calligraphy!!!!
Fortunately, I have the pleasure to know the owner and calligrapher of VCalligraphy. I have known of her expertise for years and knew that I wanted her to do the calligraphy for my invitations before I was even engaged! Once I notified her that I wanted to use her services, she immediately sat me down to map out the details: style of calligraphy, number of invitations I needed done, costs, the date they needed to be received by, etc. Even though she and I are friends, she upheld a professional manner with my mother and I in order to make the process run smoothly. She was upfront and specific about the details. Once my invitations were sent out, I immediately received phone calls from my (now) in-laws and friends from North Carolina and Louisiana complimenting the calligraphy, saying its "one-of-a-kind" and "I've never seen such pretty work." Its such a great feeling to have such a special touch with your wedding, even when it comes to down the writing. I also commissioned her to make a card for my husband on our wedding day, one that you will never find in the store. I look forward to using her services for various events in the future. I am one pleased bride!
Vanessa was wonderful to work with. She was prompt in responding and very accommodating to our needs. Her work is beautifully done and one of a kind. She offers many colors and fonts to choose from and the work was very professional. I would highly recommend Vanessa for any calligraphy.
I found Vanessa when I was in a pinch for calligraphy. I needed to get it done pretty quickly. She had some of the best prices around and she was so easy to work with. I lived out of town at the time and she was willing to work with me through mail, if necessary. Her work speaks for itself. We received so many compliments about the calligraphy on the invitations and everyone was asking who had done it. You will not be disappointed with Vanessa!!
Vanessa was so easy to work with and so many of my guests complimented my envelopes!! She also did the place cards for my rehearsal dinner and it really just made the table look amazing. I would highly recommend V Calligarpahy to any future brides, you wont be disappointed.
I would recommend Vanessa to anyone anytime. I contacted Vanessa at the last possible second after my envelopes were lost by USPS on their way to another calligrapher. Vanessa went above and beyond to make the process run seamlessly. She even picked up my 2nd set of wedding envelopes from the stationer. Her calligraphy is flawless. I received countless compliments from our guests. I can't say enough good things about her.
I received my envelopes and was in awe!!! Her calligraphy was absolutely gorgeous! It completed the classic and elegant look I had hoped for my invitations. I have received countless complements and one friend actually asked me where I had my calligraphy "printed"!!! Vanessa was so easy to work with and she answered all of my emails promptly and was very professional. I can't wait to use her services again in the future! Thanks, Vanessa!!!
I just recently received my envelopes back from V Calligraphy and they’re absolutely stunning! I have already gotten so many compliments from her work. Vanessa was so easy to work with and quick to respond with any questions or concerns that I had. I appreciate the help she provided in picking color and style as well. She finished them up exactly as we planned and was very thorough. I’ll be going nowhere else and have already referred her to another friend for her wedding calligraphy.
The calligraphy on a wedding invitation truly is a guest’s first glimpse of your wedding. With that said, I was looking for a calligrapher that could match my wedding theme which was simple and elegant! VCalligraphy did just that! The work of art was absolutely breathtaking! Actually, my guests commented more on the calligraphy than the invitation itself. On my wedding day, I had several guests come up to me and ask who did the calligraphy. I was so pleased with the work that VCalligraphy did that I would 100% recommend this to any bride! Beautiful and Elegant! Please check out VCalligraphy’s website for all of the styles!
