💌 Real Wedding Feature: Lauren & Peter’s Elegant Wedding Stationery Suite
I'M LITERALLY SO OBSESSED AND EXCITED!!!! You absolutely nailed it, this was such an exciting email to open on a Monday.
— Lauren
From Etsy Discovery to Paper Dreams
When Lauren first reached out, she mentioned finding my work on Etsy or Pinterest while deep in the rabbit hole of wedding planning. She had a clear vision: timeless, elegant, and custom—with thoughtful details woven throughout every piece of paper her guests would touch. She loved my specific calligraphy style which is the best complement to receive as a calligrapher. A quote from Lauren below when she filled out her inquiry form.
Hi! I found your work via Pinterest and Etsy and am absolutely OBSESSED! Wanted to inquire about a save the date and wedding invitation suite in the calligraphy style you used for your handwritten menus on Etsy.
We started with a simple moodboard she’d saved, full of soft neutrals with pops of color, modern calligraphy, and textures like linen. She loved the idea of a dinner party with friends and wanted that look of calligraphy to be woven throughout her suite. I could already tell she had such an intentional eye—and that this suite was going to be special.
Save the Dates: The First Impression
We kicked off with a clean and romantic Save the Date featuring a delicate script for their names and a minimalist layout. Printed on soft white cotton stock, we paired it with a warm ivory envelope and letterpress—setting the tone for a sophisticated celebration.
Designing Their Wedding Suite
From there, we built a full wedding invitation suite that felt effortlessly luxe. Lauren and Peter chose:
Main Invitation on thick, textured paper with letterpress + all calligraphy artwork and custom swan illustration
Rehearsal Card with a pop of color and all calligraphy letterpress
Welcome Party card with pop of color and all calligraphy letterpress
RSVP card with a modern twist—no envelope, just a chic custom website
Each element was designed to reflect their day: classic but not fussy, modern with heart.
Day-Of Paper Goods That Tied It All Together
One of my favorite parts? Seeing it all come together on the wedding day. We created:
Ceremony programs
Menus and place cards in coordinating colors to echo their suite
Custom signature cocktail signs with hand-lettered details
A beautiful linen Welcome Sign printed on soft ivory and displayed in a hanging bar
A Culture card
Reserved signs with matching ribbons
Guests names for Seating Chart
Signage for Guest Book and Seating Chart
Every piece echoed the calm, elevated energy of their celebration.
Lauren’s Review
Victoria was absolutely amazing to work with for the year leading up to our wedding! She designed and calligraphed our entire wedding package– from the invitation suite, to the day-of paper components, to printing and sewing our linen welcome sign- all so beautifully. She was collaborative from start to finish in understanding our vision and bringing it to life through her tasteful aesthetic, intentional design iterations and meticulous attention to detail.
Anyone planning a wedding understands the stress that goes into each component of the event, and working with Victoria was one of the best decisions we made throughout the planning process. She was super fast, communicative, organized, and calmly worked through any feedback or roadblocks that occurred along the way. She gracefully accommodated any of our last minute requests and changes. Her work is beautiful and speaks for itself, and I couldn't recommend her enough! — Lauren
Final Thoughts
Lauren and Peter’s wedding was the perfect example of how thoughtful, cohesive design can enhance the entire guest experience—from the first envelope they opened to the final thank you card. It was an honor to play a small part in such a meaningful celebration.
