The Calligrapher’s Wedding | Kat and Toni

I never really title my blog posts. For one reason, I think it just confuses the readers and for another, I don’t see any major benefits that it adds to what I think are already remarkable photographs and the essays preceding it. But today I’ll make an exception because Katrina’s wedding is THAT special. Let me call this feature ‘A Stroke of Wonder’.

As you will see in the photographs below, this wedding possesses nothing but the most tasteful of elements. From the colors, to the ribbons, the flowers, the shoes, the dresses, etc. – everything were impeccably picked. Now what takes all of these to another level and what ties these all up are the wonders of Kat’s talent. She is one of the most sought after calligraphers in Los Angeles and does work for any A-lister and major brand you can name; and she emblazoned her mark throughout her very own wedding. Hand-written notes, hand-written table numbers and signs, hand-written murals – simply the most intricate way a bride can personalise her wedding.

I have to admit that I have a soft spot for calligraphy – it being a hobby since high school. I felt that if I had the chance I’ll do that same thing to my wedding. This is the reason I appreciate every little thing that Kat did – it was not easy but if you love what you’re doing and if it is for your own wedding, then be as crazy as you can get right? absolutely. I’m just very grateful that I had the chance to meet Kat and Tony and be able to photograph them all of these beautiful things they prepared for their wedding – a stroke of love, of genius and definitely of wonder. Enjoy. :)
