Illustrate Your Wedding

Astrid Mueller creates amazing wedding illustrations that can be used in everything from your stationery (including Thank You cards) to seed packet favors and dance floor light projections. One of the great things about this concept is that you’re left with a beautiful rendering of the day, to be cherished as you celebrate your 1st anniversary and for the rest of your lives.
Closest to my heart, of course, is that Astrid can incorporate your wedding dress in an illustration. I wish I had an illustration of me, my gown, and my sweetie. When I got married, I had no idea such a thing was even an option!
One couple, Natalie and Phillip, commissioned Astrid for a Save the Date and an invitation. What’s really special about Astrid is how she imbues her client’s character in their illustration. After getting to know them personally over the phone and using photos provided by the couple, Astrid puts design concepts together reflecting their character. She then refines the couple’s chosen design into an illustration until it is finalized.
For Natalie and Phillip, Astrid created two cosmopolitan, gracious wedding illustrations that included their puppy and reflected their chic, world traveler style.

Next, they asked Astrid to design an illustration with Natalie in her wedding gown, replicating each detail of her dress. Natalie and Phillip used that art work on their wedding menu and a cake topper. Astrid also designed table cards to go with the menu, but minus the illustration (it is possible to have too much of a good thing!). Natalie and Phillip even ended up using her wedding dress illustration, along with a photograph, for their Thank You notes!
