“Having Karen work on the calligraphy of our wedding made all the difference! Her work is stunning and I'm obsessed with the custom signs she made for us. She's also exactly the type of person you want to work with for your wedding: kind, attentive to detail, efficient, reliable, and extremely accommodating of last minute requests (hello, last-minute changes to the seating chart!). I highly recommend Karen for anyone looking to make their event special and charming with her beautiful calligraphy!”

“Our production team booked Karen for an event with an on site calligrapher and she was absolutely amazing. Her work is impeccable and her personality goes right along with it. We had changes come up and she was so flexible and accommodating. When guests received their hand written cards from Karen, they audibly gasped. Thank you, Karen for providing extraordinary service and make our event personable!”

“Hiring Karen as the calligrapher for my Wedding and Sangeet was a game-changer!

What's more, Karen was incredibly accommodating, seamlessly handling last-minute seating changes with ease and professionalism.

“Karen was incredible to work with! Super talented, thoughtful, responsive, organized, and all-around lovely—she made it so easy and beautiful. When we were struggling with our vision for the seating chart, Karen had the inspired idea to create the signage on top of a paint-washed acrylic board. I can't explain how cool this was—the customization of colors, the drop shadow created by lettering on top and painting the wash on the back. Genius! Karen's signs, place cards, and table numbers were perfect—complete, accurate, and gorgeous (the lettering! the deckled edge paper!). It was an absolute pleasure to work with her. Thank you, Karen!”

“Karen will bring your wedding to life! I had a rough idea of what I wanted and she brought it to life better than I could have imagined. She was collaborative, going the extra mile to provide several options of each design to choose from. She guided us through all of the elements we could utilize to tie our wedding together with beautiful and cohesive signage and stationery. She hand calligraphed 110x of our invitation envelopes, all guest place cards, reception signage, and a custom card box! Her talent, patience, and kindness is unmatched. Do yourself a favor and book Karen before someone gets your date - she is the best there is!”
— Giuliana Cappiello, Married October 8, 2022
“I worked with Karen to design my seating chart for me on a black arched mirror. It came out absolutely stunning and was exactly what I was looking for. We received so many compliments on it. Working with Karen was also a great experience- she was helpful, professional, responsive and patient as I finalized my guest list. I can't recommend her enough.”

“I can't say enough great things about Karen! Planning our wedding had its stressful points, but this certainly wasn't one of them. Karen is a friendly, professional and talented artist. Her lettering styles are timeless and beautiful, and our guests loved their handwritten invitations with a custom wax seal! Karen also created a suite of beautifully crafted hand lettered signage for our wedding - from our bar menu, to our seating chart and table numbers - they were truly the most beautiful signs I have ever seen, and our guests felt the same way! Karen thank you for your incredible work and for being such a pleasure to work with!”

“Karen is a true artist. She did an incredible job writing the vows that I said to my wife and we were able to turn it into a beautifully framed piece in our home. I would highly recommend her services to anyone.”

“Karen was a lifesaver for this last minute bride! I wanted the welcome sign at my wedding to be on an antique mirror and what better person to make my vision come to life. The calligraphy was absolutely gorgeous. I love it so much that I now have it as a keepsake for the rest of my forever with my husband. Karens talented and elegant calligraphy will make any moment special. There is so much love put into her work, it is just obvious by her vibrant and welcoming aura. She is incredibly accommodating and efficient especially when she is given less than a weeks notice. Karen, thank you for making my wedding day more beautiful and memorable. I can’t wait to have you make something for my next event! You’re amazing! “

“Where do I begin?! Our wedding was 06.11.2021 at Ravel Hotel in Long Island City. Working alongside our planner, Pejy Kash, we were thinking of a way to make the smallest details special, extraordinary. We wanted to make our guests all feel like they were such an important part of our day. Karen was highly recommended to provide her calligraphy services. For our seating chart we used a simple black mirror and for the table seating we had each guests name printed on a coaster. Karen went above and beyond. Her work was absolutely beautiful. She was so easy to communicate with, sending pictures every step of the way to make sure it was exactly as I envisioned. She was so precise and neat, it was picture perfect! I cannot thank her enough for helping to make our day that much more personalized and unique! I would recommend Karen again and again! “
— Elisa Robiglio, Married June 11, 2021
“Karen did all of the signs and place cards for our wedding, and I am so glad she did—everything came out beautifully. For the place cards, she worked with me to get just the right style and ink color. My guests commented on how elegant they were. And working with her was easy. She was very understanding as we had to update table numbers a few times, and helped me get the wording on our signs just right. I wanted to surprise my husband by tossing in a few "Easter eggs" place cards (superhero names) and she was totally game; she even upped the ante by adding a few extras. I'm recommending Karen to all of my friends and family members with upcoming weddings. She's talented, reliable, and above all just a delight to work with!“
— Allison Singer, Married October 7, 2021
“Karen is such a gifted calligrapher, who created works of art for my wedding day. The antique mirror seating chart for our guests was absolutely flawless. It seemed like each name was etched into the mirror’s glass. She also created beautiful signage to go alongside our vintage telephone audio guest book—it vibed incredibly well with our venue, an old savings bank in Brooklyn. Karen was super easy to work with, accommodating my last-minute changes and helping coordinate delivery of the +100lb mirror the day of our wedding! I would highly recommend Karen whose knowledge and artistry result in truly special and personalized moments.”
— Emily Wertheimer, Married October 17, 2021
“Karen made our wedding invitations so special! She is both an incredibly talented artist and a very sweet individual - it was such a pleasure working with her that I’ve commissioned several other projects from her.”
