You’ve been told that your invitations will set the tone for your wedding and that the addressing is as important as your dress. You want your guests to feel honored to have received such a lovely, beautifully addressed invitation–and not wonder, “What was she thinking?” The pressure is on, and your mind is swirling with questions.

• Which abbreviations are acceptable?
• I can help you accomplish this daunting task with confidence and grace. I am a professional calligrapher and etiquette expert, and I can address your invitations correctly and, most importantly, beautifully.
