Weddings/Events

I offer a variety of services for events such as save the dates, invitations, bridal portraits, bouquet illustrations, live event illustration, and custom cocktail signs.

Live guest illustration

Have me come to your event to sketch your guests! Each 6x8 sketch takes 10-15 minutes depending on the number of subjects and is packaged with a backing board in a plastic sleeve for protection! Your guests can take the illustration home after the event as a special guest favor (one that they’ll want to keep!).

Perfect for weddings, birthday parties, bachelorettes, mitzvahs, or any other event!

My rate is $200/hr which does not include travel fees. I live in Arlington, VA but am available to travel! 2 hours/$300 minimum.

Contact me at hello@alexandraschmeling.com with inquiries.

Want to see more examples of my people portraits? Check out my fashion illustration Instagram account. I also can illustrate pets!

For even more customization, I can create custom background art to be printed on each illustration, like this one for CNBC.
