Elite Calligraphy

Genie was so wonderful! We had a formal wedding so I was unsure on most of the etiquette of the wording on our invitations. She was so wonderful and accomodating, I recommend with five stars!

Genie and Elite Calligraphy are a great alternative to hand calligraphy on wedding invitations. Plus Genie works with you — helping with etiquette, the right way to address both inner and outer envelopes and more. We loved working with her.

Genie did the calligraphy on my invitations and they came out beautiful! I got so many compliments from my guests. She was so easy to work with, very professional and timely. I highly recommend working with her!

I was stumped on what to do about our wedding invites. I really did not want to pay for a calligrapher but I also wanted our invites to look nice. A few Google searches later I came across Elite Calligraphy and was blown away. I met with Genie in person seeing as we coincidentally lived near one another (though I am sure interacting online would have been just as painless). She made the whole process so easy! She showed me tons of beautiful fonts, which made choosing a style a breeze. Within just a few short weeks we had our invites back with all of the names and addresses printed beautifully. Not to mention, the price was so reasonable for such quality work. Thank you Genie!

Genie provided services for my daughter’s wedding in June 2014. The quality of her work is outstanding, and her ability to understand clients’ vision and budget makes the process very enjoyable during what can be an otherwise stressful planning time. She is responsive to questions and emails and details all costs and options upfront as well as making sure all spelling, addresses, etc are 100% accurate. The finished work (envelopes, menus and placement cards) were quite beautiful. The cost for her services is very reasonable. I found Genie’s experience and knowledge of event needs most helpful, especially in matters of etiquette. She does not try to upsell as many vendors do, rather, she concentrates on exactly what you need, offering help and assistance every step of the way.

Genie was incredibly helpful and easy to work with. The digital calligraphy came out beautifully for our invite envelops and she had a very fast turn around time. She gave me great tips on invitation assembly and was very knowledgeable and professional. In very short notice (within a week of leaving for the wedding), I also went back to Elite Calligraphy for escort cards. Genie was excellent — she detailed out costs, we worked through indicating meal choices on escort cards in a elegant way, and tying in our wedding theme. Again, she quickly produced cards and we met for product hand off. They were perfect! I would highly recommend Elite Calligraphy!

Genie’s work is impeccable. She is so accommodating, and has remarkable taste. Moreover, she captured my style and the mood of my wedding event. Her suggestions actually helped improve my vision for my wedding event.
She is terrific, and she is as sweet as pie!

Outstanding service. The work was perfect and on time. Genie did a wonderful job making sure everything was on time. When I discovered I had made a mistake on one of the escort cards, it was redone and mailed and received within 2 days. Highly highly recommend Elite Calligraphy. They were an important part of making our wedding FABULOUS.

Genie is extremely knowledgable, helpful and professional. With just one day’s notice, she agreed to meet me in person and was extremely helpful in answering my questions, offering advice and helping me pick out my designs. Just by talking to her, you can tell she is well versed in invitation etiquette and has great experience. I truly enjoyed working with her and would recommend her to any bride looking for digital calligraphy services!

It is with great pride and pleasure that I recommend Genie Melkonian. I have known Mrs. Melkonian for 3 years. My husband and I needed someone who was both conscientious and personable for our wedding stationery needs. Having a large family, it was imperative to find someone reliable as well. Genie was all of this and more. We were fortunate to have received our stationery as promised in order to send them off with strict time constraints. Not only had Genie listened to my needs, she guided me on stationery etiquette that only a well-​practiced wedding expert can, and should be able to do. I was very lucky to have found her. (If only she did photography as well! We could have used her there!) I strongly and sincerely recommend Genie for your wedding. I think her qualities would perfectly match your requirements for all your bridal stationery service needs.

If you are stressed about sending out beautiful invitations and know that your handwriting just does not cut it, Genie is your lady! She’s like a magical calligraphy fairy, and a very detail-​oriented, cheerful one at that.
Her process is really simple~on her Web site, you choose which font (s) you’d like and send her your list of addresses and envelopes. She will then send you a detailed cost estimate and a sense of the timing to expect. Genie will contact you with any questions (she standardized my list so that all «Apartments» were spelled out) and she really understands how to work with frazzled brides!
Genie is also gracious when taking your suggestions. Because some of our invitations were destined for British addresses, I found that the Genevieve font was much more legible for the postal code numbers than the Daniella font (which we did use for our Boston list). Genie took care of each set of addresses and the envelopes were mailed to us very promptly.
I can’t thank Genie enough for working with me on my invitations. Brides know this can be a stressful process (I think I’ve even mentioned the word stress twice in this review!), and Elite Calligraphy takes a lot of the pressure away.

Who thought I would end up sending wedding invites all the way from Manhattan to Massachusetts? Well, Elite Calligraphy is superior to any others and I really checked around. I am proud to send out my perfect invitations! Genie was the absolute best! She gave amazing advice and was extremely patient with all the changes I made and always answered me back immediately when I had yet another question. Her creative talents and expertise will make anything you need done by her perfect! She was also the nicest person I have made contact with during all the wedding planning. Professional, friendly and a pleasure to work with! Do not hesitate to use this company!!!
