    Custom Wedding Dress Painting- the “Allure” 8901


    2014 - 03.11

    Custom wedding dress paintings are my absolute favorite things to create for brides!

    This one was no exception!!

    Do you remember the “Looe Key” underwater grouper and coral painting that a bride bought her her husband as a wedding gift? For their 1 Year wedding anniversary, the husband bought his wife a custom wedding gown painting as her gift! (See my next post to see what she got him!)

    The background color is a blush pink, which I picked up from her blush bridesmaids dresses.

    The wedding dress is the Allure 8901 Style Wedding Dress.

    Underwater Grouper Painting – “Looe Key Sanctuary”


    2013 - 05.24

    This is a gift a bride got for her new hubby for their wedding today!
    He loves diving, and sees groupers, yellowtail snappers, and Florida lobsters on his dives down in the keys. I created the underwater grouper painting / coral reed painting for them as a result, with other painted sea life to bring the painting to life!

    Custom Wedding Artwork


    2012 - 10.25

    This has been a post that I have been wanting to post ALL summer long!! Now the time has arrived!! Do Me A Favor Event Concepts, a Naples’ company specializing in custom invitations, stationery, welcome gifts, and elaborate details, asked me to create artwork for a custom wedding logo, that would be used on custom napkins, coffee mugs, wedding invitations,  water bottles, favors, and much more! The concept was to use lilies in a heart shape design that was unique to the Bride and Groom’s personalities. The designs were then used on all things involved in this very special wedding! The design created for all of the custom wedding invitations for the Naples, Florida wedding, were hand painted!

    This was a very special and unique opportunity for me and I am excited to show you some of the final products below!

    If you are interested in customizing your wedding or event, call the Do Me A Favor girls: (239) 594-7223 and Tell them Alexis sent you!

    “La Sposa – Devesa” Custom Wedding Dress Painting


    2011 - 11.13

    Today I bring you my newest custom wedding dress painting! I was contacted by a girl from Connecticut who wanted to get her sister (who got married TODAY!!) a custom wedding gown painting to give to her as a gift on her wedding day! The designer is Pronovias and is called “La Sposa – Devesa”

    Her sister’s favorite color is orange, and the wedding colors were going to be amber, brown, oranges, gold…so I wanted to tie those colors into the painting.

    This painting is 11″ x 14″ acrylics on canvas, with a textured background.

    Hope you enjoy!

    Custom Wedding Gown Painting- For The Mattson’s


    2011 - 05.31

    Alexis Martinez Puleio, Wedding Dress Painting

    Congratulations Mrs. Krystal ‘Ashman’ Mattson!

    Custom Wedding Dress Painting

    36″ x 24″ 

    The Ashman Family have been loyal diners at our family restaurant, Enzo’s Italian Restaurant, for many years,

    and I was thrilled when their daughter, Krystal, approached me to get her own custom wedding dress painting.

    Her Couture Allure Bridal Gown had a full ball gown skirt with a sweetheart and strapless bodice. It was embellished with lace and soft 3D flowers.

    Her wedding had a very Tuscan feel, and I tried to pull that  “terracotta” color into the background, while adding a bit of texture to it as well.

    Krystal And Dan Mattson got married on 11/27/2011,

    and I am so happy that I was able to “preserve” her gown for them to relive their wedding day over again with each glance at it.

    Thank you so much for the opportunity to be a part of your special day!

    Custom Wedding Gown Painting, Alexis Martinez Puleio

    Alexis Martinez Puleio

    A custom wedding dress painting is the new way of preserving your wedding gown! It is also a gift that will be a lasting memory of the Bride’s big day!

    The dress above was custom made as a surprise wedding gift for the Bride and Groom! My best friend, Jenny, contacted me one day looking for ideas of what to give her friend back home for a wedding gift. She had a certain budget in mind, and I said, “Why not give a unique gift? Find out what her wedding dress looks like and I can paint it for you!”

    After researching her dress style, and getting a good view of what it really looked like, I was able to give her the gift she was looking for!

    The best part of the gift was when I was able to speak to the Bride myself after she opened her present! It was such a compliment when she said, “I love it! I feel like you picked up my dress and photocopied it to the canvas!”

    Above you can see the painted dress next to her actual dress!

    Congratulations, Gia and Joe, and Thank You Jennybean for giving me this opportunity!

    This is a 24″ x 36″ x 1.5″ professional canvas,

    painted with acrylic paints.

    Custom Wooden Wedding Signs- A Napa Valley Wedding


    2011 - 02.21

    Custom Wood Signs

    Making these custom wooden wedding signs for Rashelle + Nicolas were so much fun! They were  a Do Me A Favor Event Concepts‘ client, and DMAF contacted me for the wooden signs.

    The journey started out at Home Depot, and I had the wood boards and stakes cut to the size I thought appropriate for the occasion. After sanding down the edges, I used an Olympic Mocha Brown Wood Stainer to get the dark brown background.

    Any font can be used for the signs, and I use a special Custom Art By Alexis technique to get the white acrylic font just right on the board!

    Congratulations to Rashelle and Nicolas on their wedding, and a Special “Thank You” to Do Me A Favor Event Concepts for allowing me to do this project for them!
