Consider Getting a Personalized Wedding Illustration

This is something that I absolutely wish I knew about when I was getting married last year. Have you ever considered having an illustration drawn of you and your future hubby? A custom wedding illustration adds a personal touch to save the date cards, invitations, cocktail napkins, drink coasters, cake toppers, luggage tags - you name it! One illustrator in particular, Astrid Mueller of Champagne Promises, is clearly distinguished within the wedding industry. Astrid's artistry reflects a bride's image and style - with the distinct bonus of a look and feel that is sophisticated, elegant and modern. I love Astrid's illustrations so much that I asked her to redesign BridalTweet's header and logo. Isn't it fabulous? Her work really gives our wedding community a sassy, unique and modern look.

Check out some samples of Astrid's other works of art. These illustrations are the perfect service and product for a bride that is looking to add a very personalized touch to her big day. And, the process is simple. A bride can simply send Astrid photos of herself and her hubby-to-be. Then, Astrid will take those photos and create a stylized illustration – which will become a special keepsake! To learn more about how Astrid can turn your wedding into your own perfectly designed and unforgettable experience, visit Champagne Promises LLC.

Comment by Celestial Event on October 6, 2009 at 12:23pm: Brilliant! Could the illustration be provided in JPEG format to intro a special slide show for the B&G?

Comment by Lisa Barr on October 7, 2009 at 11:35am: This is sooo lovely!! I love the idea that it will look like the actual bride/groom and not those funny cartoon characters. This is totally classy!!
Thanks for sharing.

Comment by Fiona Anavi on October 7, 2009 at 11:46am: I do something similar, but instead of doing the personal illustration of the bride and groom I do it of the theme. For example if a bride wants a peacock or an orchid to be her theme then I will draw one just for her and design the wedding suite as well!
I
am working on a winter theme right now (see attached). This is indeed a great trend!
