Painted Bouquet

Preserve your wedding bouquet in a one of a kind abstract painting

You spent time, money, and energy getting all of the details of your wedding spot on. The colors, the dresses, the flowers, the venue. All the details people noticed, and even those that people didn't.

It was a beautiful day. One day. 

Let me help you preserve the wonderful memories of your wedding day in a one-of-a-kind painting inspired by your wedding bouquet.

​You put so much thought into the details of your wedding - they deserve to last a life time. 

the process

Book your commission

  • Click on the "Book your Commission" button. The form will ask you a few basic questions about your wedding and have you submit photos of your bouquet. If your wedding hasn't happened yet, Chelle will send you an email after the wedding to ask for photos. 
  • This is a great time to ask me any questions about the process or note any details of the bouquet that you really want me to include (specific color or flower that you loved most).

I'll make your painting

  • Within three days, I will send you a mock-up of what I'm planning for your painting, an invoice, and a contract.
  • Once approved and the contract returned, your spot is booked!
  • On the date specified in the contract, I will begin working on your painting. It will take approximately two months to complete and one month to dry. 
  • Near the end of the process, I will send you some in progress photos.

Enjoy your painting

  • Once completed, I will send you a final invoice. 
  • After payment is received, I will ship the painting to you. The painting will come with a certificate of authenticity.
  • Enjoy! You will have a keepsake from your wedding day that you can have on display and use as the centerpiece for the home you are building together. Joy can be found in bright colors, flowers, and the celebration of your love.  
Your commissioned painting costs $400.
  • •$200 is due at the time of booking, and $200 is due once the painting has been completed.
  • •The cost includes:
    • •the 16"x20" oil painting on canvas*
    • •domestic shipping
    • •a certificate of authenticity

The painting will take approximately three months to complete and dry once started. 

There are 25 spots available for commissions in 2023. Once my books are full, any new inquiries will be added to a waitlist. 

* Your painting will not come framed. The edges are painted black so you do not need to frame the painting if you don't want to. If you do want it framed, you are able to do so and pick out a frame that matches your decor.
I'm excited to create this wonderful keepsake as you build your life together. I think weddings are such beautiful and joyful occasions, and we should preserve that energy in our daily lives. Your painted bouquet will be a constant reminder of your celebration of love.

FAQs

What if I want to give a commissioned painting as a wedding/anniversary/Christmas gift?
Love this for the happy couple! Check out the gifting page, and let's make this happen! 

What if my wedding hasn't happened yet?
Not a problem! In the booking form, I ask when your wedding date is if it hasn't happened yet. Chelle will email you approximately 6 weeks after your wedding to ask for photos of your bouquet. Make sure you let your photographer know that you want some great shots of your bouquet.

What if I'm worried about the quality of my photos? 
If you have any concerns about the quality of your photos or are questioning if your bouquet would make a good painting, send me an email at chellethepainter@gmail.com with some photos, and we can take a look and see! Your wedding was a beautiful day, and I want to make sure that your painting is a beautiful preservation of that day. 

Why does it take three months to finish a painting?
I know that seems like a long time! I work in oil paints, and they take longer to dry than acrylic paint. It's a bit of an inconvenience, but I think they are worth the wait. I love the rich colors and expressive painterly qualities that I am able to achieve with this painting style. Usually it will take me about two months to finish the painting and about a month to let it dry enough that I feel comfortable shipping the painting.

I love bright colors and joyful imagery in my paintings. My signature style with the lines are inspired by stained glass work. 

​My favorite things at weddings are the dessert and dancing! I'm a fan of celebration. 

I am so excited to work on your painted bouquet painting!
