About me

I started painting wedding crests during the pandemic when my old business, 'Wedding Graphic Designer,' came to a complete standstill.

Since 2021, I've opened a shop on Etsy and began creating floral crests for American brides. The demand for my work skyrocketed, and I realized that I had found my true calling in the world of wedding crests. My background as a graphic designer greatly helps me in creating impeccable print-ready files. All of my crests are designed to be printed up to A2 size, ensuring the highest quality and sharpness of details.

I personally own a professional photo plotter, which allows me to directly print my crests. In addition to printing on paper, I also offer the option to print my crests on various items such as napkins, mugs, pillows, and more. This allows you to further personalize your wedding and create a truly unique and memorable atmosphere.

Styles and illustrations

Before proceeding on this page, I would like you to understand that I exclusively create wedding suites and crests in my own style.

What does this mean? The photo next to this text summarizes my style as an artist and designer. I specialize in:

  • crests with watercolor-painted flowers
  • watercolor paintings of locations
  • invitations and coordinated items with crests and paintings of locations
  • animal portraits that incorporate the flowers from the crest

This doesn't necessarily mean you have to purchase a crest, but rather that my style cannot be altered. I don't simply handle personalized wedding suites.

Before requesting a quote, take a look at the photos on my website and social media to get an idea of the type of illustrations I create.

Please note that landscapes, skylines, and locations are painted based strictly on a photo, which must be large enough to see the details. No small, pixelated, or poorly lit photos.

Feel free to schedule a free chat consultation with me to clarify any doubts.

What brides say

About the wedding crest process

  • 1. Choose your shield shape and color

    I have no limit to shield shape and color. Just let me know your palettes and preferences for shape. You can keep inspiration from my past wedding crests. Please, don't ask me to copy an other artist.

  • 2. Choose your banner shape and color

    You can write your wedding date, or your last name, or simply don't have a banner.
    No limit to shape!

  • 3. Choose your monogram design and color

    You can choose to use a calligraphic style, or to have a vintage monogram.

    Choose your letters here:
    Only 2 letters - Click here to see vintage letters
    2 or 3 letters - Click here to see modern calligraphy

    I don't make custom letters different from these 2 options. If you don't like these monograms, you can buy a monogram somewhere else and I will incorporate it.

  • 4. Choose your floral and greenery

    You can choose flowers from past works or view this pdf

    Or just let me know which flowers and greenery you want to use. It can be related to your wedding or not.

  • 5. Add a venue portrait - extra option (price change)

    You can also add a watercolor painting of your venue. Here, too, you will receive the separate file. The original cannot be shipped outside of Italy. The price you see is only for the file or the print.

  • 6. Add a pet portrait - extra option (price change)

    You can add a painting of your dog or cat created with Procreate to your crest. You will also receive the separate file of this painting in addition to the addition to the coat of arms. Procreate is digital painting software. I paint hair by hair, without using tricks. The only thing I need is a well-lit photo that is large enough to see all the details. Of course, the colors should be true to what you would like.

Types of papers

100% cotton

We only use 100% cotton paper with a texture very similar to the paper on which the illustrations are painted. Its name is Tintoretto Gesso. However, for letterpress printing, we also use Gmund, a cotton paper that is much thicker, allowing for the use of this technique.
