About Shescloudy Calligraphy

Shescloudy Calligraphy is a Los Angeles calligraphy studio founded in 2018 by calligraphy artist Claudia Brade. Specializing in live event artistry, custom wedding signage, and personalized details, the studio serves clients throughout Los Angeles, Orange County, and Southern California, with availability for on-site activations worldwide.

What began with a single Copperplate calligraphy class quickly grew into a deep appreciation for the art of beautiful writing and a career dedicated to elevating weddings, events, and brand experiences. Over the past 8+ years, Claudia has refined her craft across weddings, corporate gatherings, brand activations, and VIP experiences, bringing consistency, confidence, and attention to detail to every project.

Shescloudy Calligraphy is known for live calligraphy and engraving experiences that transform gifting into something interactive and memorable. Whether engraving glassware, heat foiling leather goods, painting bottles, or hand-lettering paper goods, each personalization is created in real time — turning everyday items into meaningful keepsakes that guests line up for and remember long after the event ends.

For weddings, the studio is especially recognized for custom mirror signage and its extensive mirror rental collection — the largest in Southern California. From welcome signs and seating charts to day-of details like place cards and envelope calligraphy, the work emphasizes timeless beauty over trends, focusing on elegance that feels intentional and personal.

Claudia’s signature style is a modern twist on traditional Copperplate calligraphy, with additional offerings including corporate handwriting, block lettering, and brush lettering. Her approach blends artistry with professionalism — bringing a calm, approachable presence to live events while ensuring seamless execution and clear communication from start to finish.

At its core, Shescloudy Calligraphy is dedicated to crafting meaningful details that bring beauty and intention into life’s biggest moments. A handwritten or engraved name may seem simple, but in the right setting, it becomes a lasting impression.

What is your turnaround time?

Turnaround times vary depending on the service, project scope, and time of year. If you already have an event date, it’s best to reach out as early as possible to secure availability. When mirror rentals are available, seating charts and mirror signage can sometimes be completed on shorter notice.

Can you accommodate events with a high guest count?

Yes. Live personalization can be scaled for events of all sizes. For larger guest counts, additional artists can be brought in to support the activation and ensure the experience runs smoothly. All logistics and coordination for additional artists are handled in advance.

Do you design wedding invitations?

Wedding invitation design is not currently offered. However, Shescloudy Calligraphy provides envelope calligraphy for invitation suites and calligraphy for day-of paper goods such as place cards and menus.

If you are looking for a local stationery designer in the Los Angeles or Orange County area, recommendations may include Heidi Davidson Design or It’s Paper Cliche.

What is the typical investment for calligraphy services?

In-studio services for smaller projects start at $500. Custom mirror signage begins at $1,000, and live on-site bookings start at $1,000 with a three-hour minimum.

Depending on the guest count and services selected, most clients invest between $2,000 and $10,000.

Can I rent a mirror without calligraphy?

Yes. Mirrors from the rental collection can be rented on their own without calligraphy services.

Can I provide my own mirror for calligraphy?

Yes. If you have a specific mirror style in mind, you are welcome to provide your own mirror and have calligraphy applied to it. Calligraphy can also be completed on mirrors directly at warehouses or event venues, as long as access to the location is arranged ahead of time.

Can I choose a specific easel for my mirror?

Each mirror is paired with an easel that safely supports its size and weight. Some mirrors are quite heavy and require larger easels for stability. Depending on the event setup, mirrors may also be displayed on the floor or on a table.

How long can I keep mirror rentals after my event?

Mirror rentals are typically for the day of the event. Mirrors should be returned or picked up within 48 hours unless other arrangements have been made in advance.

Do you deliver mirror rentals?

Yes. Rental items are delivered on the day of the event, and the setup and breakdown are handled as part of the service.

How far in advance should I book a calligrapher for my wedding or event?

Wedding dates and live event bookings are reserved on a first-come, first-booked basis. For mirror signage and paper goods, reaching out at least 6–8 weeks before your event is recommended, especially during peak wedding season. Earlier inquiries are encouraged to secure availability.

Do you offer live calligraphy for brand events and corporate activations?

Yes. Shescloudy Calligraphy provides live personalization services for brand activations, corporate gatherings, influencer events, and VIP experiences. Live calligraphy and engraving are performed on-site during the event, creating personalized keepsakes for guests in real time.

What types of items can be personalized during a live calligraphy or engraving event?

Live personalization can be done on a wide variety of surfaces depending on the activation. Common items include paper goods, packaging, leather accessories, glassware, bottles, beauty products, wood items, and other keepsakes selected for the event.
