Lovely words from other customers

  • Claire created the most beautiful on-the-day stationery for our wedding – her calligraphy is simply stunning and she is an absolute pleasure to communicate with. Thank you so much x

  • I recently asked By Moon & Tide to create a four level family tree for a special family occasion and I have to say that, with a minimum of fuss, Claire produced a beautiful piece which is visually stunning and which will be treasured by the family for years to come. I highly recommend By Moon & Tide.

  • I’ve just taken delivery of the poem. I’m not ashamed to tell you that I cried my eyes out. You have done a sublime job. The gold, the cat, the leaves, as well as of course the text: all many many times more beautiful than I had imagined. Thank you.
