I'm Carla Schall, a celebrity calligrapher and founder of Carla Schall Designs. For over 16 years, I’ve had the joy of bringing elegance and personalization to events through live calligraphy, hand engraving, embossing, and painting. From New York to Palm Beach, I’ve worked with luxury brands and clients to create unforgettable moments that truly stand out.
My journey with calligraphy began as a child, writing letters with my beloved Nana, who first introduced me to the world of art. That passion became my purpose, and today, I’m proud to share it through each personalized detail I create. Whether I’m working on a brand activation, wedding, or corporate event, my goal is always to leave guests feeling seen, inspired, and connected.

We have had the pleasure of working with Carla Schall for many years now, and her talent and creativity is second to none. Our first encounter with Carla was at a wine dinner where she was hired to personalize and engrave bottles of wine for our guests. It was such a cool touch and added so much value to the event, making it truly memorable. Carla's talent is undeniable, but what truly sets her apart is her kindness and professionalism.
Fast forward a few years, and Carla remains a go-to partner for all our special events, activations, private dinners, and more. Her exceptional skill and attention to detail have made her one of the best engravers (and artists) in the industry. She brings a personal touch to every event, ensuring that each guest feels special and appreciated.
Carla Schall is not only a true professional but also a wonderful human being. We highly recommend her services to anyone looking to add a unique and heartfelt touch to their events.

What Makes My Hand Engraving Special
With over 18 years of experience serving Florida's luxury market, I know how to bring precision and artistry to every celebration across the state. From intimate gatherings in charming Mount Dora to grand celebrations at The Breakers in Palm Beach, I create engravings that feel authentic to your style and unforgettable for your Florida guests.
Trusted by luxury brands, celebrity clients, and Florida's most discerning hosts, I bring the same level of craftsmanship and professionalism to your event ensuring every detail looks flawless and feels meaningful for Florida's sophisticated market.
Live hand engraving naturally creates gathering moments at Florida venues, turning simple personalization into engaging experiences that spark wonder and conversation.
I recommend booking 3-4 weeks ahead, especially during Florida's busy social season (winter and spring months). However, I've accommodated shorter-notice events throughout the state. Just call and we'll work with your Florida timeline.
How far in advance should Florida hosts book?
For large Florida celebrations, I can bring team members to ensure everyone receives their personalized piece efficiently. Each engraving takes 2-4 minutes depending on complexity, and we can usually handle 75-125 guests smoothly with proper planning, whether it's a Tampa convention wedding or Miami Beach hotel gala.
What if we have many guests at our Florida event?
Absolutely. I serve clients from Miami-Dade to Escambia County, Tampa Bay to the Space Coast. I've worked in luxury resorts, private clubs, corporate venues, and exclusive estates across Florida from the Panhandle to Key West.
Do you travel throughout Florida?
Yes! I work with glass, crystal, metal, stone, wood, and other materials. We'll discuss your preferred items during planning to ensure everything can be beautifully engraved at your venue, whether it's a beachfront resort in Destin or an urban loft in St. Petersburg.
Can you engrave different materials at Florida events?
I bring all professional engraving equipment and setup materials to any Florida venue. You provide the items to be engraved (glassware, awards, jewelry, bottles, etc.) and I handle the rest, whether you're hosting in Miami-Dade, Pinellas, or Orange County.
Do you provide materials or do Florida clients need to arrange them?

What types of events do you work at in Florida?

If you want to add personalization and artistry to your Florida event, I can help.
