    Hey Bees!

    I just wanted to share how stoked I am that I found an affordable calligrapher!  After many disappointing quotes, I had finally just accepted the fact that I will have to handwrite or print my own wedding invitations.

    But, I found Butler's Pantry Invitations & More!! She is only charging me 50 cents per set (outer and inner envelope)!!!  I will pay $50 bucks anyday to have someone else do these for me!!

     Here is her email if you are interested in contacting her: skatengym@tx.rr.com

    You can also find her on FB at Butler's Pantry Invitations & More

    Goodluck!!

    maybe if they used a calligraphy pen...it looke like they use a sharpie.  i dont like raining on parades, but i would rather hand write them myself.

    Hey y'all I stumbled across this thread. I am Danica and I own The Butler's Pantry. I am an artist and I just started selling my work in the form of wedding invitations in May of 2011. So no, we don't have reviews on Wedding Wire-not because we don't have reviews, but because I encourage my brides to post on Wedding Bee and Bridal Tweet instead:)

    I haven't found Wedding Wire to be as easily navigated as the other sites have been. Maybe it's because I am new to it? I would like to know if this is a site you all are fond of?

    Anyways, as for the calligraphy pen comment- I use ONLY calligraphy pens, no sharpies. For the modern fonts that are in style now, I use a thicker pen to get the bold lines. For more classic and formal calligraphy I use the normal pen. I will try to get more samples on my website that are classic calligraphy so that it will fit everyone's style:)

    Thank you for your feedback!

    As promised, I uploaded some new photos of examples of my work that are more classic calligraphy...

    I do agree with Danica about wedding wire, some people just use it to whine.  I dont mean to be critical; art work is artistic for a reason because its subjective.  i love calligraphy so much!  i was able to work with Jessica Beltran of Moira Events and i just love her work so i tend to compare everyone elses to hers:

    Hi Bees, 

     

    Thank you for all your inquiries about $.40 calligraphy. 

    Unfortunately, that was a promotional price for summer of last year. While, I would love to accommodate every bride, as my business has grown I have updated my pricing. My current pricing can be seen here http://www.bpinvites.com/calligraphypricing.htm and ranges from $0.75 to $1.25.

     

    Samples can be seen on my website www.bpinvites.com and I can be reached at danica@bpinvites.com

     

    Thank you!
