Are you looking for a very personal and totally unique wedding
present?
If so, why not commission a wedding tableau.
Alternatively, look at the lovely
watercolour of a wedding below. These
romantic personalised watercolours are
done exclusively for Driftwood Dreams by
'Lyndsay Russell', a local artist. Normally,
you can only commission her work via a
gallery or agent. As our overheads are
low, we can make the prices of original
watercolours incredibly competitive.
I can make an elaborate and personalised wedding card to present to the bride and
groom.
After the wedding you can email me a photograph and I shall endeavour to finish the
commission by the time the happy couple return from their honeymoon or as soon
as possible.
These commissions were actually for first anniversaries but
would equally suit a wedding gift.

Here is a Scottish wedding set by a loch complete with family
tartan.
All these commissions of weddings were designed
from photos sent by e mail. In each case a design was provided for approval by
email before the work was started.
So you could actually have a border with snippets from the
invitation, actual confetti and items from the reception decoration, even the
bouquet.
Wedding Display and Engagement Sculpture


This
shell wedding centre piece was designed to hold the seating plan in
an oyster themed wedding. The two hands were based on a favourite photo of a
couple after their engagement. Both the hand sculpture above and the wedding at the hotel
further down the page use confetti in the sculpture. The confetti was picked up at an actual
wedding as well!

Gordon wanted something very special for his wife especially
as he was late with the present! He came to my house,
discussed his wedding and we came up with this commission. Ten days later he
picked it up completed.
Gordon e mailed me ".............it was fantastic, went
down very well and in all honesty I probably couldn't of chosen better, this of course made possible by your work." Gordon B.
Naturally, I was thrilled.
Volkswagen in Cotswolds
How
about a themed papier mache gift reflecting a
favourite pastime?
The Volkswagen sculpture not only captures a special moment
but included the van (now sold) and their dog (now sadly passed on) so this combo could never be photographed.
Personalised Original
Watercolours
Romantic by nature, 'Lyndsay' has been inspired by the notion of painting
couples on their wedding day. If you like, the wedding could be part of a
collage of images that form a larger picture. This may include the bouquet,
church or reception venue, the cake and other items.
Lyndsay can paint a lovely watercolour of the venue of the wedding. This would
make a beautiful wedding present. This picture was of Tynley hall.
She is happy to come
up with sketches to show her lovely
ideas and has agreed to work at
competitive prices to offer these
stunning presents. Normally, her work
would command significantly higher
prices but by cutting out agent &
gallery costs we are able to bring you a
fantastic offer.
'Lyndsay' has kindly agreed
to sign each original in her normal
fashion. You can look at more of
Lyndsay's work on our
>>Romantic Gifts.


Email us some photographs from your wedding
and Lyndsay will paint a watercolour to
capture the moment forever.
She has recently
created an illustrated children’s book which was published in September
2007. For details, click
