offer live personalization at your next event
As a live artist with five years in the industry, I specialize in creating a unique, personalized experience that is memorable for your guests. With custom calligraphy, every guest can feel extra special and valued.
I can customize products and packaging through calligraphy, engraving, or painting while your guests watch with excitement as their name, initials, favorite mantra, or quote is beautifully written by hand right on the spot.
I am available for live events in Dallas and surrounding areas, offering services such as calligraphy, engraving, painting, leather foiling, debossing, and pyrography. In-studio personalization commissions are also available for private projects, PR gifting, and influencer promotions.
Hand engraving is one of my most requested and loved service by clients! Glass, perfume, wine bottles, stone, and most metal and plastic surfaces can be personalized with calligraphy hand engraving while customers watch. My professional equipment is quiet and portable. Engraving can take anywhere between 2-5 minutes per item, (depending on the length of the personalization request) and includes the wax fill application for a pop of color, if desired.
I am able to paint a small floral design on the front of the bottle in 10 minutes or less using high quality and fast drying acrylic paint. Full designs can take slightly longer, approx. 15-20 min,, depending on the design. I offer different design options that can be completed in a fairly short amount of time. Perfect for on-the-go clients.
My preference is to use a traditional pointed pen & ink on note cards, place cards, & other stationery, depending on the event & volume. For other surfaces/materials, I will use paint or brush pens. Leather or vegan leather surfaces, a wood burner or heat foiling pen is used. The process is dependent on the item & event type, ie: high volume, low volume, etc.
My on-site rate starts at $800/up to four hours, depending on the event type (ie: high volume). A travel fee may apply, depending on the location.
Yes! In advance of your special events, I offer in-studio commissions for press kit gifting or welcoming your esteemed guests. I create custom place cards, notecards, product personalization for influencer gifting, including calligraphy engraving on glassware, fragrances, beauty products, or fine spirits.
As the vendor, I do not typically supply the items to be personalized. However, I am happy to provide guidance on suitable materials if needed.
The approximate number of items that can be engraved comfortably for a 4 hour event is 100-150, depending on the item and complexity of the engraving. If you have a specific number of items in mind or a target range, we can discuss your expectations, and I'll do my best to accommodate your needs within the given timeframe. For high volume events, I recommend adding on an additional artist(s).
If your event has over 200 guests, it is recommended to have more than one engraving artist. This will help improve the flow of traffic, reduce lines, waiting times, & to ensure that each guest receives a customized item, contributing to a positive experience for everyone.
The booking process can be facilitated through me, and I can coordinate with my local talented network to bring the desired number of additional artists & ensure a seamless & enjoyable experience for your guests.
A retainer is required to secure your date, and payment terms are as follows: Pay in full or 50% of the invoice total. Dates CANNOT be held unless an invoice is paid (minimum 50%) and/or a contract is signed. The invoice balance is due on the event date.
Yes! An additional fee for any events outside of the Dallas area will apply to cover mileage, travel expenses, and, if necessary, flight and hotel accommodations for out-of-state or overnight stays. The specific details of the travel fee can be discussed and outlined in our agreement to ensure transparency and clarity regarding any associated costs. Please email me to discuss travel for events outside of Dallas, TX.
