About Adeline Margaret

Hi, I'm Addie (short for Adeline Margaret)! Proudly named after both of my grandmothers, Anita Adeline and Margaret Ann, my business is my namesake. I'm an Irish gal from small-town northeast Wisconsin, but I have been living in Milwaukee for the last 10+ years after first falling in love with the city when I came here to attend college. I graduated from Marquette University in 2015 with majors in both Marketing and IT, and I work full-time as the Vice President of Marketing for a data and analytics consulting firm based in downtown Milwaukee.

Since teaching myself hand lettering and calligraphy as a hobby in 2016, Adeline Margaret has transformed into an award-winning calligraphy and creative design firm that specializes in wedding invitations, signage, day-of stationery, and branding and design work for small businesses. I primarily work with clients in Wisconsin – especially Milwaukee, Madison, Green Bay, and the Fox Valley – but have worked with many couples from all over the United States, including California, Colorado, Utah, New Mexico, Texas, Illinois, Michigan, Missouri, Florida, Virginia, New York, and Vermont (to name a few!).

I’m a sucker for black and white, neutral woods and warm tones, gold accents, clean lines, and everything (literally, everything) green. I’d describe my style as modern boho with a touch of minimalism, and I love working with my clients to take the ideas they’ve been tossing around in their heads and translating those to paper in clean, creative designs.

My favorite beverage…
Depends on the place and time. Cab sauv on my couch, PBR at the bar, and old fashioneds (whiskey sour, plz!) anywhere and everywhere else.

My favorite vacation spot is…
My family’s cottage on Kelly Lake, hiking or snowboarding in the mountains, or anywhere hot and all-inclusive.

You’ll always catch me wearing…
Converse, a beanie, and paint on my left hand (and usually in my hair).

My AirPods are always blaring…
True crime podcasts or any pop punk/screamo playlists. My Spotify Audio Auras were “angst” and “bold,” if that tells you anything.

My ideal weekend involves…
Sleeping in, a walk outside with coffee in hand, late brunch with a spicy bloody mary, the Green Bay Packers (winning), and enough down time to relax at the lake or at home with my cat children, Macie and Braille.

My favorite hobby is…
Running and watching everything on Bravo (it’s a full time job in itself).
