Why Choose a Custom Watercolor Wedding Portrait?
- Featured in the Southern Bride Gift Guide – my custom watercolor wedding portraits have been highlighted as a top gift for newlyweds, showcasing their timeless appeal and emotional significance.
- Hand-Painted with Care – Each portrait is meticulously created using traditional watercolor techniques, capturing the love, joy, and beauty of your wedding day.
- A Truly Unique Wedding Gift – Ideal for newlyweds, parents of the couple, or as a special anniversary gift. It’s a thoughtful way to immortalize the most meaningful moments of your celebration.
- Premium Materials for Lasting Beauty – Your portrait is painted on premium 100% cotton watercolor paper and crafted with lightfast, archival watercolor paints, ensuring a stunning and lasting keepsake.
Select 'Artwork only' if you would like to receive just the artwork itself and take care of matting / framing yourself.
Please note, I usually leave a trim of white paper of up to 0.5 in around the painting to make it easier to mount it to the mat. But if you'd like me to cut it off before sending, please request it before the order is shipped. Alternatively, you can cut it off to the desired size with regular scissors.Ordering Matted Artwork
