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!

love letters ✨ a timeless keepsake I’ve had the pleasure of calligraphing wedding vows, obituaries, wedding songs, and even wills...the words feel sacred and it’s and honor to be entrusted with them.
