Golden Hour Paper Calligraphy and Custom Wedding Invitation Design

fine art design for the modern sophisticated bride

Custom wedding invitation design & calligraphy for life's most important celebrations

Golden Hour Paper was founded on the idea that beautiful paper and wedding invitations can make a huge impact.

My name is Madeline Kelly and I am the owner and head designer here at Golden Hour Paper! I work from home outside of Portland, Oregon where I live with my husband, Jeff, and our cat, Kevin, named after the bird in Up...

I fell in love with calligraphy and design at a young age and am thrilled that I get to work with amazing couples and create beautiful paper goods that truly represent them as a couple. Not only that but beautiful invitations also make a lasting first impression on their friends and family...

Take a look around my website or send me a note to hear more about what we could create together! I can't wait to hear about your design dreams and how I can help make them a reality!

Located in Portland, Oregon...shipping worldwide

From save the dates, to invitation suites, calligraphy envelope addressing, vintage postage, and day-of design we can't wait to hear from you!

simple way to spruce up an envelope? Have a vintage floral illustration printed on it 🌿 I hope everyone had a beautiful weekend! It went by a little too quickly in my opinion but I’m ready for this week 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼 what is a big project you have on your plate!?
customized calligraphy prints are a perfect gift for Christmas and anniversaries ✨ my calendar for this winter is already starting to fill so reach out soon if you are interested! Shown here is walnut ink on @share.studios cream/gold flecked paper 😍
Yesterday’s shoot was beautiful (head to my stories to see photos before they disappear!) and it reminded me of another shoot I loved being a part of and where I first started experimenting with handmade paper.

when one of your brides shares photos from her photographers and you just have to show the world...Can y’all please get married again so that we can create your stationery all over again? This NY couple hosted their destination wedding in the magical Positano, Italy (a bucket list place for sure!) and we incorporated watercolor florals inspired by the town and an illustration of the sea and city! Now booking 2019 and can’t wait to work with all my future couples 💕 and thank you for the beautiful photo @laceandluce
