Save the Dates: R & B

October 6, 2009 in Blog • Weddings-Blog • Custom Weddings • Save The Dates

It’s no secret that I love animals, nor is it a secret that I love drawing them.  I also love people who want to include their pets in their wedding invitations, Save the Dates or thank you notes.  When R & B contacted me, they wanted unique save the dates and wedding invitations featuring themselves and their dog, Diva.

Diva has got to be one of the cutest dogs I’ve ever seen, and she’s the first pit bull I’ve ever had the privilege of drawing.   Check her out:

R & B are people after my own heart: Diva is loved unconditionally, and I could tell while drawing her that she’s as sweet as can be.  Plus, her smile made ME smile, which is always nice.

R & B will be having a wine country wedding, and wanted something fun for their Save the Dates.  How cute is this pose, with B crushing grapes and holding R in the air?

This is one of my all-time favorite Save the Dates.  I love drawing dogs!

Custom drawn Save the Dates are a fun way to excite people about a wedding.  The vineyards are a common theme for my clients (partly because I’m located in the bay area, right near the California wine country areas of Napa and Sonoma), but it’s easy to spice things up and make the vineyard setting totally “you.”  I think B, R and Diva did a good job of that.  :)
