Bring Your Event to Life with Live Engraving, Calligraphy & Heat Foiling
live event artist for brands & events
At Inkwell Scripted, I bring the art studio to your event—be it a corporate gathering, product launch, brand activation, or wedding. Live personalization isn't just a service; it's an experience that adds a fun, interactive touch, forging memorable connections between your guests and your brand.
Imagine your guests' delight as they watch their names or messages come to life on materials like wood, glass, metal, acrylic, and paper. Onsite engraving transforms everyday items into cherished keepsakes, while custom calligraphy adds a touch of elegance to invitations, signage, and even champagne bottles. And let's not forget heat foiling—it gives leather or vegan leather items a luxurious, metallic sheen that's hard to miss.
Serving Central Virginia, including Charlottesville, Richmond, and Washington, D.C., I offer personalized, live artistry that enhances your event experience. I travel to your location, providing a unique and interactive way to engage your guests and showcase your brand. Whether it’s a wedding, gala, or corporate event, I’ll work with you to create stunning, customized pieces that leave a lasting impression. Whether it’s engraving, calligraphy, or heat foiling, these personalized details will leave a lasting impression.
Ready to Add a Personal Touch to Your Event?
-
I can typically personalize 10-20 items per hour, depending on material and complexity. For larger events, I can arrange for additional artists or assistants to accommodate higher guest volumes. Please note that events requiring extra personnel may incur additional costs, which will be detailed in a custom quote.
For larger events, I can bring along a team of artists and/or an assistant to ensure that more guests can enjoy their personalized items without delays.
-
I love a good challenge! From glassware and perfume bottles to acrylics, leather goods like luggage tags, and paper products such as place cards—if you have something special in mind, just ask!
-
My setup is minimal, typically requiring:
A sturdy table and chair.
An additional table for completed pieces (if guests are not waiting).
Access to an electrical outlet (for certain equipment).
All items to be personalized should be unpackaged prior to the event.
If you have specific setup preferences or constraints, please inform me in advance, and I will do my best to accommodate them.
-
I’ve worked at everything from intimate weddings and private parties to large-scale corporate events, brand activations, and influencer gatherings. If your event involves creating personalized experiences for your guests, I’m here for it!
-
I offer all-inclusive packages starting at $1,000 for 2-3 hours. Half-day and full-day packages are available at $1,500 and $2,000+, respectively. These rates include travel within 100 miles of Louisa, VA, and all necessary materials.
-
Absolutely! These starting rates are based on typical event needs. I’m happy to create a custom package if your event requires additional time, materials, or assistants to accommodate a large guest count or specific brand activations.
-
I regularly travel throughout Virginia, D.C., and Pennsylvania—from Charlottesville and Richmond to Harrisburg and Pittsburgh—for onsite calligraphy and engraving.
That said? If you’re planning something special outside those areas—I’m all ears. From destination weddings to branded experiences, I take on a limited number of travel-based events each year. If it fits the vibe (and the timeline), I’ll pack my kit and be there.
