I Completely DIY’d My Dream Wedding Invitations!! · Painting, Designing + Sending Them · Artist Vlog
Ойын-сауық
I designed, painted, printed and sent my own wedding invitations. Check out my process of illustrating the building, creating a theme and using watercolours to paint some lovely botanicals. You'll also see how I added text, created a full invitation suite with added touches like belly bands and custom stickers and how I made the envelopes and packaged and sent all the invitations 🎊🎊🎊 Plus, you'll find out how much DIY invitations cost!

Thanks Ashley! I actually gave them a print as a gift to say thanks afterwards :)
My toxic trait is thinking I can do this! Thankfully my daughter is the one getting married and she knows art, watercolor, and computers. We shall see! This is beautiful!!
The invitations are gorgeous and a beautiful personal touch. I think the amount of dedication, time, and work put into this was worth it for sure. Would love to see the other wedding DIYs that you have done :)

They turned out so stunning! I designed my sister's wedding invitations years ago but now they definitely seem amateurish by comparison 😅Maybe I'll get to redeem myself with my own invitations one day. I'mma go pre-order your book now. I would definitely love to see more of your wedding DIYs if you have more to share 🥰

congrats on your wedding. I wish you both a long and happy marriage! The invitations look incredible!
Daaaamn Minnie you should consider offering your invitation-making services for a fee. These are just whimsical and adorable!
Congratulations, Minnie and Ozzy! Thank you so much for sharing this part of your journey with us. Brings me back to when I designed our wedding invitations. :) The ones you made are absolutely beautiful!
Congratulations! Your invites are absolutely gorgeous. I wish I would’ve thought of something like this for my wedding. You did SO much, that’s really impressive. I’m definitely not missing wedding stress. I’m glad you’re through it too. 😊
Those are so beautiful and inspiring!! I'd love to see more content from your wedding! Love your videos and miss seeing you more regularly! Hope you are well
Beautiful invitations. I enjoy seeing a video that shows the entire process of making these. Other similar videos will be wonderful
Minnie! So so so lovely! I loved seeing your process and the ideas for the illustrations emerge. Just wonderful! And congratulations to you and Ozzie!! Hooray!
CONGRATS!~

Congratulations!
wow this is so good!! saving this video for inspiration for my future wedding :D
If I had gotten such a stunning invitation, I would’ve thought it was professionally done and not a DIY project. I would have mentioned how wonderful it looked either way, but at such a high level as this (on top of that not knowing potentially they have such an amazing talent, if the person is private with their art skills). It sounds silly to say talent, due to so little is talent when it’s in fact, countless hours of hard work and dedication that gets people to this level art wise! Your mum is right, these are the types of invitations people wish to save and also frame. I caught myself sitting with a smile and often saying ”wow” throughout this video! Thank you for sharing this with us💐
The invitations are beautiful! I made my invitations for my wedding, and I was so happy with them and I have such lovely memories of making them. I would love to see more wedding videos from you :)
Really enjoyed your video...being a creative I know how it feels to be on top of things specially on planning your own wedding🌼Love all your wedding artworks, this is indeed a labor of love!

Omg I'm actually doing the same right now making invitations for my wedding, but also i live in the states and our stamp is sooooo much cheaper (60¢ which is £0.50) but congratulations 🎉 i hope everything else goes well ☺️

Beautiful work. I remember doing my own invitations forever and a day ago and how much work it was. But it was satisfying knowing they had my own personal touch and I saved a lot of money doing it that way, too. I really like the tracing paper in place of vellum. I also like that kind of hidden artists touch of using an art material for the packaging. I pre-ordered your book maybe a month ago, I'm excited to receive it when it ships.
Congrats to both of you. The invitations turned out beautiful! I especially loved the painting of the building, which was a nice touch. Thank you for sharing your process with us. I really enjoyed this video ❤️✉️❤️
