Getting married? Get a custom wedding invitation cartoon by Darrin Bell

I’ve been drawing wedding invitation cartoons for my friends for years, caricaturing them in Candorville style, and the invites have always been a big hit. So I figured, why not offer this to anyone who wants it, whether friend, stranger, or bitter arch-enemy? If you want your own wedding invitation Candorvillized, visit the new Candorville Custom Wedding Cartoons page!

Here’s the pitch:

That wedding invitation with the elegant couple and the heart and the dove on it sure is nice. But will anyone be talking about it? Will anyone (other than your mother) hold onto it for years, or maybe even frame it?Get custom artwork for your wedding invitations, t-shirts, or simply to frame. Just e-mail us some photos of the happy couple, and we’ll turn them into caricatures standing atop a wedding cake. Getting married in Vegas? We’ll add in some Elvis backup singers. Getting married at the zoo? We’ll even throw in some animals (the animals in this example are the ones not on top of the cake).

We’ll e-mail you print-ready artwork you can give your favorite printer (we recommend Vistaprint.com). Or, if you’re in a hurry, we can handle the printing for you and have your finished invitations shipped directly to you (see details on the wedding cartoons page).
