COMMISSIONS
A UNIQUE PIECE
A commissioned piece of calligraphy is unique to the individual. There are plenty of colour options to choose from to make sure the piece reflects the person accurately.
A KEEPSAKE
Having a special poem or song created in beautiful calligraphy is a keepsake that can be displayed in your home forever.
Some examples that I have previously commissioned:
Poems
Song lyrics
Quotes
Wedding vows
Personal letters
Scripture
Family name signs
Special event signs
REQUEST A QUOTE
If you are interested in commissioning a piece of calligraphy, please include the following information to ensure I give you an accurate quote:
A copy of the words (word document format)
The total number of words
Colours you are interested in
The date you need the commission by
I will then send across a quote which will be valid for one month.
THE NEXT STEPS
If you are happy with the quote, I will ask for a 50% deposit to confirm the work.
To ensure I capture your vision accurately, a digital mock up is sent to you before creating the final piece.
Once you confirm you are happy with the digital mock up, the turnaround time is 14 days, from creating the commission to delivery.
An example of a price point: £1 per word (plus admin fee + P&P)
"We enlisted the help of local calligrapher RKM Calligraphy to add a special message to this gifted bottle of Moet & Chandon. Rachel was really accommodating with our request, opting for gold lettering on the bottle itself with an extended message tied around the neck. We highly recommend checking out Rachel's services for weddings and events!"
