Live Event Calligraphy & Hand Engraving for The Bachelor Season Premiere in NYC

Earlier this year, I had the absolute pleasure of being part of the season premiere event for The Bachelor, right here in New York City. As a live event calligrapher and on-site hand engraver, I’m always excited to bring luxury personalization to big moments, but this one was truly unforgettable.

The space was filled with candlelight, fresh roses, and carefully curated details inspired by the show itself. The vibes were immaculate. As guests arrived, they were immediately drawn to the engraving station, where I was set up to personalize glassware live throughout the evening.

From the moment guests saw the engraving happening in real time, it became one of the most talked-about elements of the night. There’s something captivating about watching your name appear right in front of you, hand-engraved into glass with care and precision. It turned what could have been a standard gift into something deeply personal. People were gathering around, pulling out their phones, sharing on social media and asking to get theirs done next.

Each guest had the option to choose their initials or full name, and no two glasses were the same. It was more than a party favor. It was a keepsake they could actually use and cherish. Some guests were shocked that the engraving was happening on the spot. They kept asking, “You’re doing this right now?” “Is that really your handwriting?” and “YOU did that?!” That real-time, handcrafted element added an unexpected layer of luxury and exclusivity that made the experience stand out.

Live calligraphy and engraving are not just services. They’re experiential. They give your guests something to interact with, talk about and take home. For this event, it was the ‘wow’ factor that elevated the entire atmosphere and made the night feel like something truly special.

Whether you're planning a luxury brand activation, corporate event, wedding or influencer experience in NYC, the tristate area, or beyond, I bring a personal touch that makes your event feel one of a kind.
