Like all other events across the world, COVID hit my little world of weddings and workshops pretty hard. I’ve had multiple calligraphy workshops postponed, and if you booked on one of my courses, I cannot thank all enough for being so calm, caring and understanding through all of the uncertainty. Lockdown was a great time for me to force myself out of a comfort zone that I’ve been in denial about for years - Live Videos, and just video content in general. So the start of July saw me do something so out of the ordinary - a LIVE Zoom Workshop! Safe to say, it was a success and I enjoyed teachi ..read more

We are now heading into the main wedding season and I am super excited to see the months of planning turn into beautiful wedding stationery for my couples. Whilst I create beautiful modern calligraphy wedding stationery all year round the late Spring and Summer are still the busiest for the wedding industry, which means my Nottinghamshire studio is a hive of activity. If you are new to Polly and Me let me tell you more about the wonderful wedding stationery and signage that I create. The most popular requests I have are for place name settings, menus, table plans and signage for weddings and o ..read more

This month has been one that I have really enjoyed. It has been a busy one, with plenty going on behind the scenes, so I thought I would share a little of the adventures with you. Wedding Events In The MidlandsI have attended two fabulous wedding events within the Midlands this month. Firstly, I was at the Haarlem Mill wedding event, held by Oh Happy Day. Which was a beautiful event held in the gorgeous Derbyshire based mill building venue. I had a little helper in the form of my eldest daughter Polly, who made a fabulous job of styling some of my products for me. This photo, taken by Foye Tog ..read more
