Real Wedding: Venue Illustration Bella Donna

Illustrating the wedding venue Bella Donna for a custom wedding invitation suite was such a wonderful project. When I was approached to create this illustration, I knew I had the opportunity to capture not just a beautiful building, but also the essence of the special day that couple envisioned.

The venue, with its elegant garden beds and bell tower, is a romantic venue designed for weddings and events. It’s located just outside of Tulsa, in Catoosa, Oklahoma. The chapel has large windows behind the altar, overlooking the lovely woods.

As a digital illustration, I paid close attention to the venue’s architecture to capture the details. The couple requested that the illustration be done in a medium warm grey to match the rest of the font color in their monochromatic custom wedding invitation suite.

I love the inclusion of an event venue in the envelope liner. This element acts like a surprise for the guests. When they open their invitations, the guests get a visual glimpse anticipation for the celebration to come.

It was a proud moment when I saw the final suite together, my illustration of Bella Donna printed in the envelope liner. The inclusion of my art was a personalized touch and a graceful way to elevate the invitation design. The invitation was designed by the Inviting Place.

I am always honored to play a part in each couple’s love story. The illustration is available for licensing for future couples’ Bella Donna weddings. Learn more about licensing or reach out about custom wedding invitation art.
