Hey there! I’m Kelli,

the calligrapher and creative heart behind Swirls and Script Calligraphy. I’m so glad you’re here! My passion is bringing beautiful lettering and meaningful details to life for life’s most special moments.

If you told little me that one day I’d be running a wedding calligraphy and engraving business, I probably would have giggled and gone back to crafting in my Great-Grandmother’s workshop. She was the queen of all things creative—painting, quilting, and turning everyday things into something beautiful. I was obsessed with exploring her little workshop, and from the moment I could hold a paintbrush, I was hooked on creating.

​

Fast forward a bit—I grew up, became a high school teacher, met the love of my life, and had two sweet (and wildly energetic) boys. Life was full, but I needed a creative escape that wasn’t grading papers or picking up Legos for the hundredth time. That’s when I found calligraphy, and what started as a relaxing hobby quickly turned into an all-out passion.

​

Enter Swirls and Script Calligraphy—my little dream-turned-business where I help couples add stunning, one-of-a-kind wedding signage and stationery to their big day. From invitation suites that set the tone for your celebration to day-of details like place cards, menus, and custom wedding signs, I love crafting those little touches that make your wedding feel so you. And because I’m all about sentimental keepsakes, I also specialize in engraved heirlooms—think personalized perfume bottles, wine bottles, and serving sets that you’ll treasure long after the cake is gone.

​

Eventually, I took a leap of faith, left teaching behind, and went full-time with my business. Now, I spend my days designing elegant, handcrafted wedding details and managing the delightful chaos of motherhood (often with an iced chai in one hand and a calligraphy pen in the other).

​

If you’re dreaming of beautifully personalized wedding details that tell your love story, I’d love to bring your vision to life! Let’s create something unforgettable together.
