With the 2025 wedding season ramping up, I’ve been getting more inquiries about fashion illustrations for weddings. It’s a fun and unique guest experience because it’s all done live!
Working with Kira and Joey last summer with CNC Event Design, it was a pretty large wedding with about 125 guests. Kira and Joey understood that I couldn’t sketch all the guests in the 5 hours, and were open to let me do the rest in-studio after the wedding for any guests that wanted a sketch. They would send the sketches with their thank you cards, and guests can re-live the moment of being all dressed up when they open up the envelope.
The guests were incredibly enthusiastic and out of the 125 or so guests attending, between on-site work (36 sketches in 5 hours) + 82 in-studio, almost 95% of the guests wanted a fashion sketch! Many guests were from out of town, and I had a list of in-studio homework sketches to do. You knew they really love my work when they kept asking if Kira and Joey will mail it to them later. :)
My assistant took some snaps of the on-site work, and I completed the rest in-studio and took about 2 weeks. I always do the keepsake illustration of the wedding couple in advance. That’s where I can ask the couple in more details of the outfits, photos, jewellery, bouquet etc.
