Here’s a few photos to show you what I do as a wedding calligrapher!
When I’m not writing English Wedding, I write calligraphy for weddings. I help couples with everything from invitations to place name cards to table plans, wedding signs and more!
You’ll find me at By Moon & Tide and @bymoonandtide on social 🙂

“Nominate two people to leave your table and swap places with other banished guests.”
Um… so this isn’t your average wedding meal. Of all the wedding traditions I’ve heard, banishing guests from their comfortable seats isn’t familiar… but it’s really, really funny.
Likewise asking guests to rearrange themselves in alphabetical order – but silently.
Or nominating one person per table as the ‘queen’ of that table, and assigning relevant duties and crowns / tiaras for the rest of the evening.
The phrase ‘your day, your way’ applies to everything wedding planning, from your outfits to your choice of drinks. And while weddings have traditionally been a tipsy occasion, we are very aware that lots of couples are choosing an alcohol free celebration, or making conscious choices to reduce the amount of alcohol served at weddings. We think this is amazing.
