Wedding Calligraphy Invitations for a Hawaii Destination Wedding

February 16, 2023

I had the pleasure of designing the calligraphy wedding invitations for a lovely destination wedding in Hawaii.

Wedding Calligraphy Invitations for a Hawaii Destination Wedding

‘Nothing fancy, just love’

Wedding invitations are an important part of the wedding planning process. They set the tone for the big day and give guests a sneak peek of what to expect. Erwin and Clarice, who recently tied the knot at Gannon’s Grassy Knoll, chose wedding invitations with playful, modern calligraphy and floral elements.

After providing a number of different modern calligraphy options, the couple chose the calligraphy wedding invitation that they liked best. The bride chose a bold yet classic color scheme that perfectly matched her bouquet and the beauty of their Hawaii wedding location. By choosing calligraphy and floral elements, we created a cohesive look and feel for their wedding that set the tone for a truly special day.

Fun fact—the bride and I have been friends since we were babies. Our moms have been close friends years before we were even born, and I’m assuming that BFFs tend to plan pregnancies together, too. As a result, we (the babies) were born just a few months apart.

Thank you, Clarice and Erwin for making my calligraphy a part of your big day.

When was the last time you wrote a letter to yours When was the last time you wrote a letter to yourself? 💌 
 
During ou workshop, everyone received these pretty Cafe Mary Grace greeting cards. The prompt was simple: write something heartfelt. It could be for a loved one, or a message for your future self. 
 
I decided to write to my future self for this demo. No need for perfection, just enjoying the ink touching the paper, especially when the paper is this smooth. 
 
Save this for the next time you need a reminder to slow down and check in with yourself. 🤍

A slow afternoon well spent. 🤍    I recently taugh A slow afternoon well spent. 🤍 
 
I recently taught the very first workshop for @cafemarygrace ‘s Art of Slow series at their gorgeous Parqal Mall branch. Instead of worrying about perfect technical form, we focused entirely on intention, mindful creation, and embracing the simple joys of slow living. 
 
The afternoon culminated in everyone writing a heartfelt letter to themselves or someone they love, finished with a traditional wax seal. ✉️✨ 
 
To cap off the experience, we treated our senses to Mary Grace’s delicious new menu additions: the Vigan Longganiza Pasta, refreshing Lemon Basil Soda, and their delicious Mango Mousse. 
 
Thank you to everyone who paused their busy days to create with us. Here’s to more moments of slowing down.

This time I’m trying it out with my Pilot parallel pen and On Ink’s ‘turon’. We Filipinos like lumpia and turon is a version of it that’s filled with brown sugar, jackfruit strips and sweet plantain bananas (called ‘saba’ bananas locally). 😊

I got two new inks from @inksbyvinta during the @manilapenshow. Haribon turned out to be a desaturated version of lavender, kind of like its introverted sister. It’s a beauty and I love it. The shimmer didn’t show up on the Rhodia pad, so I have to try it on a different kind of paper. 
 
Makopa, on the other hand, is loud and screams ‘main character’. It’s mostly a bright magenta when used with a broad nib. It reminds me of the fruits from our makopa tree we had when I was a kid. 🩷
