Weddings

I love making this picture for wedding showers and even weddings themselves.  I made this for my neighbor Mandy.  Her and her fiance are getting married Nov 14, 2014.  The shower was the 5th of Oct.  Because they are going to Florida for the ceremony, I went ahead and gave this to them for the shower. It is in chocolate brown  and Love and the date are in Maroon.  The frame is 12x12.  The vinyl is put on the outside glass and a piece of decorative paper is put behind it. $30.00 ( First and last name can be added as well)



Plates are also very popular.  They look great on the gift table and the couple can take them home and display it. from  The two plates on stands  Jeffery and Gantner are done in brown and the monogram is in beige.    Greiss (bottom) is done in black with the "G" done in a silver/grey.  $15.00 (Easel not included)

This frame is glass to glass that i did for my parents anniversary.  The G with the ornamental work around it is done in brown and Gorry is done in a script font in beige.  The vinyl is placed on different layers of the glass to give it a 3-D effect.  The frame is 16x20     $60.00


When I look to design items for the bride and groom, I like to look at the wedding invitation.  That gives a lot of attention to what they will like.  I look at fonts, .... are they done in script? I look for colors as well.  If you know what the couple likes and know that their living room is in blues, lets pick a color that will compliment that.  The nice thing about the glass to glass is that the wall color will show through.    On the 12x12 frames and other frames that are not glass to glass, the couple can change out the decorative paper to match the room they display it in.  Blacks and browns are always the safest choice.  White can be as well, but it is very stark.  I would prefer to choose a beige or a grey as the secondary color.  But that is why it is custom.  YOU choose!!!
