Tell us a little bit about your business.
Oliver Lettering Co. focuses on creating meaningful, calligraphy-driven touches from live engraving experiences for guests and bespoke wedding keepsakes to hand-lettered signage.Oliver Lettering Co. was founded on designing day-of signage and has since then evolved into much more. With calligraphy engraving growing in popularity, I began exploring engraving and the interactive experience it offers to guests and clients. Although I do still offer day-of signage and other calligraphy details, engraving has become my most popular service. My work continues to focus on creating intentional, sustainable, one-of-a-kind pieces – whether it’s engraving your wedding day fragrance bottles, crafting special keepsakes for your wedding party, or giving your guest an interactive experience with a personalized favor that won’t get left on the table at the end of the night. My goal is to make your wedding details feel unforgettable and beautiful.
I love fresh and new ideas! If you don’t see it on my website or socials, that doesn’t mean it’s not possible. Let’s get creative.
What makes your work unique?
I specialize in both calligraphy and engraving, which allows me to create art-driven pieces across a couple’s entire wedding experience – from the proposal to the milestones and anniversaries that follow after the I dos.
My writing is entirely my own. Since every item is done by hand, no two letters are the same – giving each custom sign or gift a look that cannot be duplicated. While fonts can be fun, my hand-lettering gives your wedding keepsakes, favors and/or signage a timeless, elegant look.
There are countless possibilities when it comes to adding thoughtful, personalized calligraphy touches to your day, before and after. Let’s work on something memorable together.
What is your ideal client like?
My ideal client appreciates the art of calligraphy and how it can add a unique human experience that computers and fonts cannot. I love a client whose love language is gift giving.
Type A vs. Type B? I appreciate clients from both ends of the spectrum – the ones who know exactly what they want and the ones that give me full artistic freedom or need some direction in how to make their guest experience unforgettable. If you’re a client that likes to take the lead, I love that. If you need some assistance in pulling your vision together or curating your desired experience for your guests, I also love that. This is your day and I want you to have as much or as little of a hand in as you’d like.
