Keepsake Idea: Get A Custom Sketch of Your Wedding Dress

When it comes to choosing a wedding gown, celebrity brides will almost always go the custom route. A starlet will likely see her gown first on paper as a sketch done by the designer hoping to land the sell/ (Check out Eva's sketch here!). After the wedding, these one-of-a-kind drawings become creative keepsakes to have and to hold. In keeping with our favorite hobby, bringing star treatment to you, we offer mydreamlines.com, a sweet little find. The website offers custom bridal gown sketches done by artists in the South of France. C'est Tres Magnifique, no?

The pencil and paper sketches are done according to a photo that you mail to the artists. The finished products are roughly 8 1/2 X 11 to 9 X 12 and come in black and white, or ivory, unless you specify you’d like a “splash” of color. Fabulous Bonus Alert: You can even order drawings of your bridesmaid dresses or smaller sketches of your accessories (veil, bouquet, etc…)

We know you wedding warriors will go to incredible lengths to get that perfect dress (woe to the woman standing in your way at the gown sample sale!) It’s a shame that your flawless frock will disappear into storage after the big day. A custom sketch allows you to stare lovingly at your dress for as long as you like, and it makes a gorgeous keepsake for your wedding album.

Go a step further and make replicas of the sketch to include on programs, menus, or thank-you notes.
