Meghan Markle Did Impeccable Calligraphy for My Wedding Invitations
Long before she met Prince Harry—and five years prior to her big break on Suits—Meghan Markle supported her budding Hollywood career by working at Paper Source, a small shop for decorative papers and custom stationery, in Beverly Hills. The aspiring actress, praised by Paper Source CEO Winnie Park for her "creativity," advised customers on projects like invitations for special occasions and taught a two-hour long class on calligraphy. Markle even did calligraphy for celebrity correspondence and wedding invites for major stars, like Paula Patton and Robin Thicke, who wed in 2005.
"I just thought Meghan did a beautiful job," Patton tells Town & Country of her custom invitations and save-the-dates done by Markle. "It really is a lost art, and it was so nice to create something without a device that doesn't use a battery or need to be plugged in."
The soon-to-be royal is now known for her groundbreaking fashion, charitable work and advocacy, and successful acting career. But many will be surprised to find out that the 36-year-old—who will marry Prince Harry on May 19 at St George’s Chapel, Windsor Castle, where he was christened—has a hidden talent for handwriting.

"She's someone who really enjoys the creative aspects of the job, who enjoys helping people and also someone who enjoys making creative projects come to life," Park told People. "She would have advised customers on projects, from wedding invitations to creating personalized stationary to gift-wrapping. She has talked about being a big fan of custom stationary and think it’s the best gift to give a friend."
Markle was so talented, in fact, that People reports she started her own freelance calligraphy business where she crafted beautifully designed wedding invites for couples like Robin Thicke and Paula Patton in 2005. Hopefully they didn't throw out one of the wedding keepsakes during the divorce, because we bet those babies are worth some serious coin now.
Earlier this month, Kensington Palace's official Twitter account confirmed that the royal wedding invitations, designed by Barnard & Westwood, had been sent out to Markle and Prince Harry's lucky friends and family members. We're going to let it slide for now that Mel B. (a.k.a. Scary Spice) said she and the rest of the Spice Girls received their invites back in February.
