Guest portraits make really memorable table place cards/ escort cards / favours to delight your loved ones on your wedding day.
A great talking point during the wedding breakfast and a lasting memory of the day and can be framed afterward. Each one is illustrated to order and captures your guests likeness in a realistic style.
I will need high resolution photographs of your guest, close up of their head and shoulders. I use these photographs as a reference point to draw from. Nothing obstructing the face like hats or sunglasses unless you desire these to be part of the illustration. The photos need to be labelled with the persons name as you want it to appear on the place card. So if you want a nickname to be used label it as that. Please also specify eye colour and hair colour. It's helpful to have a spreadsheet but any organised format will work.
Each piece is a work of art and takes a considerable amount of time to illustrate. If you would like a party of over 50 guests illustrating please allow 6 months+ for completion. Or message to see if I have availability if shorter notice.
The place cards are printed on responsibly sourced FSC board and have a textured feel to the card. Dimensions are A6 OR 105 x 148.5 mm OR 4.1 x 5.8 inches or in simpler terms post card size. If you would like a different size please get in touch. A sample is available to buy. Place card holders not included. You can prop them up against a wine glass or purchase various holders online that suit your weddings theme.
Please don't hesitate to get in touch to discuss your order before placing it. You can email me at hello@fancyfolk.co.uk
