I'm smack dab in the middle of wedding invitation season. That means I get to rationalize endless Internet / Pinterest searches for pretty wedding things, and call it work.

This season, the majority of my clients are all about gold, and I'm certainly not one to argue with that. Gold is sophisticated yet versatile, and when paired with calligraphy, it makes for seriously stunning wedding invitations. I love how there's so many styles of calligraphy—each one different than the next, and each one with their own distinct personality. I haven't calligraphed anything in awhile, so it's been nice to hit nib to paper again ( sneak peek here ).

With that, I'm off to warm up my wrist + hand-letter a very special save the date ( not my own, I assure you ). Make it a happy Monday, friends.
