Venue Sketch Wedding Invitations

VENUE SKETCH WEDDING INVITATIONS

A venue sketch wedding invitation is a wonderful way to give guests a glimpse of your big day! Whether you’re getting married in your hometown chapel, a cathedral downtown, a private estate, or a villa in Italy, a custom illustration of your wedding venue will turn your invitations into a precious keepsake.

From a local whiskey distillery to a historical cathedral in Puerto Rico, I’ve created venue sketches for brides across the country and I’d love to draw a custom illustration for your wedding invitations!

Love the idea of using a custom venue sketch on your wedding invitations? The samples shown here are just a few of the illustrations I’ve done in the past. You can also create a built-from-scratch custom invitation made just for you! Check out the wedding invitation customization options Banter & Charm offers, or schedule a free consultation to find out more.

A custom venue illustration design fee includes the use of the sketch on any wedding stationery purchased through Banter & Charm. Inquire prior to booking for pricing and availability of a digital file of the sketch.

Are you team gold or team silver? It's easy to agr Are you team gold or team silver? It's easy to agree that edge painting is gorgeous either way! These two custom invitation suites feature metallic edge painting, but you can also choose a bright hue (like hot pink or sapphire blue) to add a pop of color to your invitations!⁠

Tying a few pretty bows 🎀⁠ .⁠ I love postin Tying a few pretty bows 🎀⁠

I love posting time-lapse videos - let's be honest, they're more fun to watch! - but they're deceptive. Even though you know the video is sped up, it's hard to tell how much. So I wanted to share one in real time in case you were thinking about assembling your own invitations.⁠
It took me about 1 minute to stack the pieces, wrap the ribbon, and tie 1 bow. I was going a little slower than normal to make it easier to see what was going on, but it still takes time! And if you've never done it before, it will probably take longer.⁠
So if you're tackling any part of your invitation assembly, make sure to give yourself plenty of time! (At least double the amount you think you need is a safe estimate)⁠

Madison said "very very thick paper is a must" for Madison said "very very thick paper is a must" for her wedding stationery, so very very thick is what we did! The invitation was printed on 4-ply museum board, and when you have a piece of paper with edges like that you have to add a little gold edge painting.⁠

It's common to want to cross "stationery" off your It's common to want to cross "stationery" off your wedding to-do list once the invitations are finished, but there is so much more to your wedding paper! Think about all the items you'll need on the big day: table number, escort cards, menus, signs, programs . . .  Let's give them the same attention as your invitation suite so your stationery is flawless from start to finish.⁠
The best time to get started on day of stationery like this? I like to begin about the time you mail your invitations. This lets us finish up the design just in time for your RSVPs to start rolling in, and then you're not rushing around at the last minute to finalize everything!⁠
