vendor rave

Original post by Espo22

although ive been screwed by others or other i should say, i have to point those out who are amazing and so helpful.

I contacted wendy trout in february for hand calligraphy and told her middle of march and she said that was fine. Well bc my invites never came and she never received JUST the cardstock that should go on top of the boxes from the invite place, couldnt be the week i had told her. I emailed her to let her know and she still offered to help, only thing she said is that this past weekend she'll be at an event all day sunday so if she receives it by saturday she can start working on it and will send it out on tuesday. Well on saturday she called to tell me as soon as she received the package, and then i had to call her 5 more times soon after bc she needed info and to clear things up with things on my guestlist but she was so nice and patient the whole time.

She even emailed me last night and said bc of the cardstock i bought it takes longer to dry and she bc of the metallic paper she had to do some over so she needed more cardstock and said she will go to michaels herself during her lunchbreak to get the rest of the cardstock for me. She even just called me now from michaels to tell me what cardstock she found and if it would be ok.

She is sending them to me today overnight, theres only about 30-40 she needs to finish and the rest she will mail to me tomorrow.

She is awesome bc i know she usually just does this on the weekends since she works full time but bc of my situation she even offered to help and has been so great. Her going to buy the cardstock herself helped out ALOT

so if anybody is interested in hand calligraphy, definitely recommend her and her prices are lower than most others.

Thank you to missliss for recommending her to me

They look better than decent to me!

I don't blame you. I'm kind of dreading that part. When I get to that, I may ask you for her information if you don't mind.

I'm so happy my recommendation worked out for you!! Not that I ever doubted her, she was always so super sweet and always in communication and absolutely reliable. She always called and asked if she had any questions, before proceeding. And on top of her being so extrememely nice and easy to work with, her work is just gorgeous!

It definitely is nice to come across vendors like her. They make the little things so much better.

Denise...I'm so glad she was still able to help you out. You needed the break, especially now with your ankle.

And you have a great attitude to not have let the whole invite situation make you bitter. You just dealt with what you were given and found a solution (and a great one at that).

Yay!!!!

I'm glad everything worked out in the end!
