Looking back on all my projects from 2018. This year, I illustrated a total of 143 brides and grooms, along with their bridesmaids, groomsmen, ring bearers and little flower girls. I love how Kacie and Dillon utilized their wedding program illustration and also had them made into personalized gifts for each wedding party member. 📷 @tenthandgrace

Last week I shared a sneak peek of the preliminary design for this equestrian inspired wedding crest. This one was a labor of love and the final design is now complete for Deborah and Danny! When purchasing a wedding crest, included in the cost are two rounds of any needed revisions to ensure the design is just the way you want it for your big day. We added a painting of the Italian style villa the bride and groom will tie the knot at that sits above a stately polo field in Santa Barbara. We also tweaked the monogram a bit and added a few more flowers and fresh leaves. Swipe right to see the comparison of the original if you missed last week’s post!

Couldn’t of said it better myself!LOVED painting all the butterflies for this project and can’t wait to show you more. .

Hi, everyone! Justin - from the husband and wife photo team @thehappybloom - here to talk about a little inspiration behind this recent shoot. We titled this shoot “My Heart Aflutter”. Many times for editorials and shoots, photographers forget to include a true story. A backbone for the aesthetic. A heartbeat to the message we’re conveying. For this shoot, we wanted every element to symbolize something in our couple’s story. The butterflies represented grandparents no longer with us. Blush represented the bride’s favorite color. And bows on the Bella Belle heels echoed the story of how the groom proposed: a vintage ring box with a stitching of a bow on top. With this shoot, we wanted to encourage couples to choose certain elements with symbolism and memory in mind - even when it comes to your shoes! Let your wedding day be a true representation of your amazing love story!

One of my favorite venue paintings from this year of the one and only Belo Mansion in Dallas ❤️

I’m finishing up all my live paintings from 2018 and hoping Santa can deliver them to my newlywed couples just in time for Christmas🎄I’ll be sharing those paintings with y’all soon! I’m so grateful to all my couples and their families who welcomed me to their weddings this year, from Charleston, Ft. Worth, Tampa, Vermont and several in Dallas, it’s been an adventure! 📷 @virgilbunaophotography

One of the best things about having custom artwork made for your wedding is that you can use it in multiple ways, which not only helps to tie all your decor together cohesively but it also allows you to optimize the value of your investment. Outside of invitations and programs, I’ve seen my custom illustrations for weddings printed on cocktail napkins, treat bags, flags, pillows, GOLF BALLS, aisle runners, gift tags, welcome stickers and so much more. But oh my goodness, this is one of my favorite uses I’ve seen thus far: on a wedding cake! The geniuses behind this are listed below: .

Scenes from my sketchbook

One of my favorite things about what I do is working with people from all over the map and painting the prettiest places around the U.S...and abroad! This is my first check mark for Michigan, showcasing Ericka and Wade’s Save the Date for their wedding at The War Memorial.

Sharing a little sneak peek of a crest design I’ve been working on for a wedding in Santa Barbara. The ceremony will take place on a massive polo field, with the reception following on the patio of a luxury Italian villa. We are still working on edits (maybe adding a venue painting 😍) but I wanted to share the preliminary design for this equestrian inspired crest 🐎

Styling and shooting suites with my very own Emily behind the scenes is one of my favorite things to do for my business and something I wish I had much more time for. Speaking of Emily, this month marks an entire year that she’s been with me! My little angel from above comes once a week and helps me stop chasing my tail and catch up with my to do list - assemble suites, address envelopes, photograph work for my portfolio, place orders, voluntarily organize😉, the list goes on. You’re a gem, Em! @bacon.me.crazy

True fact: the food tastes better when the table is gorgeous 😉 Feeling so lucky to be a part of this dream team of vendors who put together this vision featured on the front page of @stylemepretty. .

Yesterday @emilyannhughes_ shared a sneak peek of Beth and Matt’s Charleston wedding and I came across the prettiest picture of their invitations. Couldn’t wait to share!

Cleaning out my scans from this year and love looking back on all the beautiful places I got to paint - from California to Louisiana. For those wondering, here’s a little glimpse at how I start a wedding suite with a venue painting. First, I paint it large scale by hand and then scan it into my computer. Then, I scale it down and re-purpose the painting throughout various wedding paper goods. Gotta love technology!

I loved painting this crest design for Megan and Joshua’s wedding in Maine. The couple will be taking a boat out to Cabbage Island for the ceremony, where they will overlook the bay and the Burnt Island Lighthouse. Also included in the design is plenty of plumosa and olive branch to reflect the garlands that will lay across farm tables for their refined nautical wedding decor. I can’t wait to show you their invitation suite design! ⚓️

Thankful for this family of mine! Photography: @ashleyrfondon

One of my favorite #savethedate designs that was made almost a year ago, featuring a watercolor painting of Perkins Chapel At SMU. Time flies!

Can’t get enough of those pet illustration cocktail napkins! Meet Scout, who belongs to the new Mr. and Mrs. Granoff. We featured Scout in Amanda and Jeremy’s RSVP cards, welcome box stickers, recipe cards and these cute cocktail napkins! Photography: @rachelmayphoto Planning: @amoreeventco Venue: @pippinhillfarm

I’ve noticed a slight shift in trending wedding flowers through my client’s requests for their wedding crest designs. In the last year I’ve painted so many blush garden roses but lately it’s been all about unique and delicate white botanicals. Not mad about it!

Stepping away from weddings to share the sweet birth announcement of Cynthia Jane that I made for some of the best people I know. If CJ is an ounce like her parents, she is going to be the wittiest, smartest and most giving person. And maybe a little sassy!
