SERVICES

Place Cards

Tanito Handmade - London Calligraphy and Engraving - Hand calligraphy name place card with wax seal
  • Hand-crafted place cards can make all the difference to your tables. Not only do they serve as a sign for where guests should sit, they also double up as a memento of the day, showing the thought and love you’ve put into every detail.

    No matter the theme or style of your wedding, we can work together to create place cards that match your desires.

  • Create handwritten name place cards from almost any surface, not limited to paper (although handmade paper is a classic). I can add elegant calligraphy to virtually any surface, including leaves, fruit, shells and agate slices. You can also combine your place cards with favours, using slate coasters, glass dishes, leather luggage tags and more.

    Choose from a selection of calligraphy styles including traditional, flourished and modern.

  • Paper Surfaces | Starting at £2 per card

    Non-traditional Surfaces | Starting at £4 per card

    Please note - this price is for calligraphy only. Surfaces to be provided by client, unless discussed otherwise.

Bridal Gifting

    Then gift them a personalised perfume or liquor bottle. These are perfect for showing your appreciation whilst serving as a cherished keepsake for years to come!

  • Almost any surface can be personalised, so if you have a special idea feel free to get in touch!

    However, I recommend perfume bottles, cosmetics containers, liquor bottles, candles, glass mirrors and wood or perspex hangers.

    Choose from a selection of calligraphy styles including traditional, flourished and modern.
