Live Calligraphy Engraving Event: La Fermière
Renowned artisanal French yogurt brand La Fermière curated an exclusive pop-up experience at Bedford Studio NYC, offering guests limited-edition flavors and a complimentary engraving (by yours truly) with every purchase. It was a joy to bring my craft as a live calligraphy engraving artist to this beautifully curated (and delicious!) event.
Personalized Order Forms
To ensure a streamlined experience, I offer personalized order forms for every event that allow each guest the freedom to select and fill out the name, word, or phrase they would like engraved. For this occasion, I included the option to add a small illustration- a sweet heart, shiny sun, calming waves, a cheerful flower, or a trio of stars- which added to the uniqueness of each pot and gave guests a further sense of ownership over the final creation.
Over the course of two days, I engraved more than 170 of La Fermière’s signature terracotta and lavender-blue pots. See below for some of the collaborations- it’s always a fun surprise for me to see what people come up with. Hot Diggity Dog!

Allowing your guests to choose their own engraving gives them meaningful involvement in the process, helping them truly connect with the experience. Tied to your event, it creates truly unforgettable moments and lasting mementos they can take home and treasure. And in this case, the sweetness of those afternoons remain long after the yogurt is gone!
👔🥃 The Woodford Event Experience
At work personalizing Woodford Reserve bottle for each guest with the Brooklyn Bridge in the background.
I recently had the honor of engraving live at The Fulton on the South Street Seaport in NYC for Spirited Conversations- a truly memorable Woodford Reserve whiskey event centered on Fathers & Fashion.
Hosted by @brooklynstrollclub and @joegonzales.co, the evening wove together community, and style against the breathtaking backdrop of the Brooklyn Bridge- in a way that only New York can!
Upon arriving, guests were invited to fill out personalized order forms, sharing the names, dates, or short phrases they wanted etched into their bottle. As @dominiqueashonjones and @justinb00ne shared powerful reflections on fatherhood, self-expression, and fashion, I set to work engraving the glass of 50 Woodford Reserve bottles, transforming them into a personalized keepsake- a memento not only of the evening itself, but also of their particular chapter in fatherhood.
Watching guests light up with gratitude and excitement as they walked away with their bottles was a beautiful reminder of why I love bringing live calligraphy engraving to occasions like these!
If you’re looking to elevate your next event, let’s connect! I’d love to help craft a one-of-a-kind experience for you and your guests -whether for a luxury event, corporate gathering, product launch, or a private celebration, add an extra touch of unforgettable by bringing in live engraving and allowing guests get to watch their keepsake come to life before their eyes.

✨ A Truly Unforgettable Wedding Favor: Live On-Site Engraving for Your Guests ✨
When it comes to weddings, couples are always looking for ways to make their big day feel special, meaningful, and memorable—not just for themselves, but for their guests as well. One of the most unique and luxurious ways to do that? Live on-site engraving as a wedding favor experience. 💍🖋️
Yes, your guests can walk away with more than just memories and a slice of cake—they can take home a custom, hand-engraved keepsake made just for them. 🎁
💡 Why Live Engraving Is the Ultimate Guest Experience
Gone are the days of generic wedding favors left behind on tables. Today’s couples want to gift something their friends and family will actually cherish—and better yet, use. That’s where live engraving comes in. It’s more than a gift; it’s an interactive moment during your celebration. ✨
As guests mingle during cocktail hour or the reception, they’ll have the chance to personalize a beautiful item—most often glassware like:
🥂 Champagne flutes
🍸 Martini or coupe glasses
🥃 Rocks glasses
🔹 Shot glasses
Whether it’s initials, a name, a meaningful word, or your wedding date, each guest gets to select something special to have engraved right on the spot. 🖋️
And the personalization options lead to the sweetest results! For example, one couple’s guests each requested their own initials engraved on matching rocks glasses—connected by a tiny heart in between. 💕 It was simple, romantic, and such a sweet detail they later displayed on their home bar. Now, every time they have a drink together, it’s a reminder of your big day. 🥰
