custom lettering for weddings & events
If you are looking to add a special touch to your wedding or event, I can help you achieve the look and feel you want through custom lettering and signage. From the very envelopes that announce the special day to your guests, to customized gifts for loved ones, to welcome and menu signs, I’m happy to work with you to design, lay out, and write everything in a manner that matches your personality and style.
Below are the starting prices for commonly requested items, but if you don't see something you want, please reach out! I'm always ready to try something new.
Please allow 4 weeks minimum for turnaround. I can provide items more quickly but charge a 30%-150% rush fee depending on your timeline.
Notes:
Prices are for lettering only & do not include graphic design work
Prices vary depending on the scope of the project. Most projects assume that the customer is providing materials but I can provide them for an additional fee.
Shipping is not included; Baltimore locals can arrange drop-off, pick-up, and/or delivery
