    Inspired by Harry Potter

    • August 6, 2012
    • by Allison

    My husband and I love the Harry Potter series. So much so that we did the midnight showing when the last film came out. It was such a memorable experience. Besides observing all of the fantastic costumes people wore to the opening, one of the highlights was a hand-written piece of paper in the bathroom stall pointing to the toilet that said “This Way to the Minister of Magic.” It was so clever that I wish I had brought my phone to the bathroom to take a photo of it! I’m currently making my way through the movies again.

    I did this painting for my husband for Valentine’s Day. His favorite character is Dobby. My favorite character is Luna Lovegood. What is yours?

    Hand-Painted Reception: Lavender

    The Lavender wedding is full of grace and serenity. No bridezilla would be attracted to this theme.

    The beautiful thing about lavender is that it can be added to any element of a wedding (as you can see by these pictures).

    Hand-Painted Invitation: Lavender

    • August 2, 2012
    • by Allison

    The Lavender Invitation is very breezy and calm. It evokes warm afternoons wandering through the quiet rustle of lavender fields.

    This invitation is feeling a bit like traditional flower invitations, but takes on a painterly approach. The painterly approach allows it to feel more relaxed and breezy. This would be perfect for a couple who loves summertime and wants to incorporate this lovely, calming herb into their big day. This would also be perfect if the couple was moved by the expansive lavender fields in Provence.

    In case you didn’t recognize it, this is the finished painting from the work in progress painting I posted yesterday.

    The Lavender Invitation is available for ordering under the Hand-Painted Weddings Shop Invitations tab.

Brittany and Nick got married this past weekend at Brittany and Nick got married this past weekend at the beautiful Beaufort Hotel in North Carolina! Their invitation suite featured four venue paintings! The couple wasn’t interested in a wedding crest/monogram so I did a painting of their church top and centered on their invitation card. Beaufort Hotel from the view of the water is painted along the bottom. In a similar fashion the Morehead Country Club was painted along the bottom of their rehearsal dinner invitation.

A special congratulations to Ali and John who got A special congratulations to Ali and John who got married this past weekend at Harbour Town Clubhouse in Hilton Head! Their coastal wedding suite featured a fun painting of the lighthouse on their save the date. Their invitation was a formal one with wedding crest and was wrapped in a watercolor vellum wrap featuring their venue (probably my favorite touch). #handpaintedweddings #watercolorwedding #hiltonheadwedding
The bride is an interior designer so her attention The bride is an interior designer so her attention to detail was top notch. She truly had the most elegance and pristine vision for her destination wedding at @belmondhotelcipriani in Venice, Italy. For her save the date I painted the Hotel Cipriani boat along the canal with the historic San Marco square in the background. I also painted Baroque architectural details in “Venetian pink” on the corners. Those elements were repeated on the couple’s invitation which featured a soft painting of the venue along the canal. A custom illustrated map was also painted in their suite—to get guests excited for their trip! The bride found these beautiful Venice inspired frames for her wedding day paper and I drew from the inspiration, along with the sculpture on top of the columns in Piazzo San Marco to paint a little lion detail for their escort cards. I also added an elegant oval shape to many of her signs which is a subtle, luxe touch I like to add if the designs are very simple.

This welcome party at @belmondhotelcipriani in Ven This welcome party at @belmondhotelcipriani in Venice, Italy was nearly as fancy as the couple’s wedding day so I worked with the bride to separate the look of their wedding day paper. The welcome party took on an elegant garden party aesthetic complete with fruits and colorful florals and accents of pewter. While the wedding was elegant neutrals with ivory and gold. There was a custom menu with a brushed lettered name on it that opened upwards with the guest’s specific meal inside. This brushed lettering continued on the drink menu and sign for the watercolor artist that was on site @studiosheean Custom luxe ivory cocktail napkins with a simple bright green monogram was handed out with the drinks.

It was a warm day full of love, 3 years ago! My dr It was a warm day full of love, 3 years ago! My dream wedding. Planning happened in such a kismet way—we got married in the side yard of a friend of a friend’s father’s mansion, which I painted on the wedding invitation and welcome sign. I also gifted the original to him as a thank you. ☺️ It was an intimate 50 person wedding so I considered all the little details from handwritten thank you cards on the ceremony chairs, to bug spray station, time capsule guestbook, a cutting cake made by my mom, and 6 signature drinks to choose from (more than I’ve ever painted on a client’s signature cocktail sign). Our wedding was garden formal and full of beauty (and love of course). Memories. 🥰 Photos: @wideeyedstudios Florals: @fleurishbmpr Flatlay photo: @jessicaschmittphotography
Wax seals that are fun and unique and fresh for yo Wax seals that are fun and unique and fresh for your stationery—that is one of my specialties! This dusty blue wax seal was the finishing touch for a surprise birthday party invitation along Lake Winnipesaukee in New Hampshire, and matched perfectly with the ducks painted in the lake on the envelope liner. ⁣ ⁣ I love painting buildings along the river, whether in New Hampshire, Philadelphia, Venice, or anywhere else, it is just so fun to paint the reflections in the water and get into the details of the buildings in my watercolor. ⁣ ⁣ Reach out if you would like to work together on your custom watercolor invitations for your 2027 and 2028 events!
