She is a true artist, and the envelopes themselves were breathtaking. It is such a difference to have professional attention paid to your invitations and the touch of a calligrapher vs relying on a printer to print from a spreadsheet without attention to layout or what makes sense. Gail is a lovely lady, very talented, and very reliable. 10/10 - she was recommended to me by Diane Bender of Sincerely Yours Diane where I got my invitations.

My husband found Gail Jacobson of Ink 'N Pen on Angie's list and she was an absolute pleasure to work with! Gail works by appointment only but was very flexible as to when she could meet me. If you are interested in her services make sure to make an appointment as she works out of her home. I arrived with the place cards I had bought, and Gail proceeded to show me at least a dozen different styles of calligraphy I could choose from! I was amazed! I did not know there were so many types of calligraphy in existence! We decided on the font (informal script) and a white pen since the place cards were dark green. The turn around time was less than twenty four hours! When I picked up my place cards Gail had them ready in a small box with tissue paper between each card. What a professional! She was very patient while I checked each one. They were beautiful and absolutely perfect! I thought the price was very reasonable at $2.50 per card. Gail has been doing this for over thirty years, has trained with master calligraphers, and can do even more fonts than the ones that she showed me! She is an artist with exceptional attention to detail. For any special event needs including envelopes, place cards, I would highly recommend found giving your event that extra special touch by using calligraphy anGail at Ink 'N Pen.

Monica is an amazing teacher. I was vacationing near Miami and wanted to start learning calligraphy…read moreas a New Year's resolution. I found Monica on a google search and feel like I couldn't have been more fortunate in finding a teacher. Her teaching is so meticulously thought out and the practice lessons are simple yet so precise as to yield excellent results. When she explains the nuances of lettering, breaking down shapes and spacing of letters and and how all of it effects the finished impression, I'll never look at handwriting the same again. She has volumes of books that she put together to help with whatever style calligraphy one is interested in and was able to, with a short conversation, figure out exactly what was best for my goals. I walked in with zero experience and a pretty rough scrawl and am confident with consistent practice with her methods that I will absolutely succeed. I will definitely be scheduling another lesson on my next trip to Florida.

She took many days in between each communication, which wasted a lot of my time. I only had two weeks to get the job done, but she wasted much of that before telling me she wouldn't do it.

Now I will miss my deadline for the sweet and thoughtful gift my group had planned for my friend. Ava Piper & Co really let me down. She was polite, but in the industry I imagine that trust to get a job done is very important. I'm very disappointed.
