in New York-New York City
I'm looking for someone to do caligraphy on our wedding invitations.  Hand or electronic is fine.  Something affordabe is more important.  Would love to see samples prior to committing.  Has anyone used someone they could recommend?

    The going rate in Manhattan is $3-6 per invite for hand calligraphy. Computer calligraphy in any color you want is $1 per invite with a $25 set up fee at Blacker and Kooby on Madison Ave.
    They give a preview, you can pick size and style. Looks just like done by hand.

    Thanks for the idea on blacker and kooby. I called them, prices have gone up but are not terrible. $1.35 for black printing plus $30 set up .

    She is based out of Staten Island, but accepts jobs from all over. I am not sure how much she charges now. She did a wonderful job on my invitations and place cards.
