How couples use their wedding portrait as a theme for the party

Want to have a portrait made for your wedding invitation? With a little creativity, it can become a recurring theme throughout your entire wedding. How? Find out below.

1. On candles and decorations

Have your portrait printed or transferred onto candles to create a warm atmosphere during the ceremony or dinner. This way, your artwork becomes part of the ambiance of your special day. You can also have your portrait printed on the menu cards and direction signs.

2. For thank-you gifts and small tokens of appreciation

Whether it's a mug with bacon, mini Aperol bottles, magnets, or other small gifts for your guests, adding a small portrait makes it instantly personal and unforgettable. Your guests will appreciate taking home such a unique memento.

3. Pins

And why not pins for the bridal children or the best men's suits? Your portrait will become a stylish accessory and a cute souvenir in no time. Or do as Lien and Tom did: they chose a detail from their invitation (their three-legged kitten, Milo) to give to their guests as a beautifully carved wooden thank-you gift.

4. Postcards
After the wedding, the portrait can continue to play a role in your interior design or as a gift for family for years to come. Turn it into a postcard that everyone can take home with them.

5. Cut-out
And if you want to go all out: a cut-out of the two of you to welcome your guests, like at Els and Nabil's wedding!
