These days, calligraphy comes in all sorts of styles and shapes – from traditional and elegant to modern and romantic to quirky hand lettering styles. Here are a few of my favorites!
Calligraphy is absolutely gorgeous when letterpress printed on a wedding invitation. Use calligraphy as the sole design element for your wedding invitations – like the Primele design for Bella Figura – or pair calligraphy with a blind impression pattern for a more modern look, like Kristina and Brock's wedding invitations with calligraphy by Jenna Hein.

Betsy Dunlap created the stunning calligraphy text, which was then letterpress printed by Blackbird Letterpress. The final wedding invitation is truly a work of art.

 try a bold color like green or yellow, or even pink for a softer and more vintage-inspired look. Calligraphy by Grace Edmands for Sarah Parrott.


White calligraphy on black envelopes is a fabulous modern and bold take on traditional calligraphy, and looks incredibly romantic when paired with vintage stamps. Calligraphy by Neither Snow.
