a life-changing moment
We can’t deny that a wedding is a life-changing moment for a couple. A ceremony and a celebration to solidify their bond forever, surrounded by their loved ones. For M+R, their wedding was also a life-changing moment for my career.
When Lena from Moana Belle Events contacted me to do the wedding signage for M+R I was so nervous, for two reasons:
The couple did not want any calligraphy; I was a calligrapher
Both couple were graphic designers; lets just say my imposter syndrome was activated
However, with the guidance of Lena, the amazing couple, and my graphic designer in laws (Shyrah and Donovan) we were able to achieve what I thought was the impossible.
So let’s break down the stationery and signage that was done for the lovely M+R!

How exactly did the wedding of M+R change my career? Well, since this wedding , 75 % of the weddings that I’ve done afterwards were designed based with very minimal to no calligraphy done. This wedding was the beginning and probably the catalyst to me becoming a stationery designer and turning C’est Calligraphy into Studio C’est. This wedding changed my life for the better! Thank you to Moana Belle Events and M+R for your guidance and your trust, I will never forget this day!
