Laura @ Laura Hooper Calligraphy's Picture
Laura Hooper, Northridge, CA Vendor: Calligraphy Website: Laura Hooper Calligraphy About Me: I've been practicing the art of calligraphy since the age of 12 and nothing gives me more pleasure than waking up each morning knowing I get to do what I do each day. I love having the ability to infuse my own personal style into each of my bride's special day. When I'm not working, I enjoy traveling, hiking, reading and painting; but most of the time I don't consider calligraphy to be work at all!
About Laura @ Laura Hooper Calligraphy

When Whitney of Brown Sugar Designs and her client Sacha contacted me to collaborate on a map for her Save the Date set, I could not have been more excited. The save the dates had a specific green and gold color palette, and I made sure to put plenty of those colors into the map.



The wedding is taking place near their home in Seattle, so I made sure to incorporate the Space Needle, and of course a ferry boat in the bay. 


Sacha and Will used baby photos on their save the dates as a cute way to show where they came from. 

Genuine Swarovski crystals were painstakingly adhered to mark the date on the cards. What a wonderful idea! 

The maps were made into magnets with gold backers on them so that the guests could stick them on their refrigerators — and who wouldn't want to!?

Sacha, it was such a pleasure to work with you and I look forward to doing the rest of your wedding calligraphy next year!

Laura - You were a dream to work with and we are thrilled with how the maps turned out! Our guests loved them!! I can’t say thank you enough and I can’t wait to work with you again. You are - by far - one of my favorite wedding vendors to work with to date!
Once we finalized our invites with Brown Sugar - you know that I’ll be in touch about some gorgeous LH calligraphy for our envelopes!

Oops, this was the font I was interested in. I accidentally posted this on another post. Does anyone know the name of the font used for the couple’s names, and if it can be downloaded on the web anywhere? Thanks!
