No better way to say “I Do” than with an original painting to mark the occasion. Such a special day calls for a wedding gift that will be remembered and loved by the couple for years to come. I have worked with couples that select a painting that they would like and then let friends and family contribute to a group gift. Abstract? Still Life? Landscape? There is something that will sing to you and it will be a reminder of your special occasion.

Gone are the days of wedding registries filled with fine china and serving bowls. Today’s couples can get creative with their requests without the fear of “breaking tradition.” I love it when I see a couple that tells me that someone gifted them my art and it is a favorite.

If you’re building your registry, I’ve got great news - it’s super simple to request any Melissa Anderson painting through theknot.com. There are 2 ways to arrange it:

1. Cash Fund - If you’ve had your eye on a painting for your future shared home, a cash fund is a great way for multiple guests to contribute to a larger purchase. Just email me to request the painting you’re adding to your registry and I will reserve it until the big day!

2. Add It to Your Registry - Theknot.com has a feature called a Universal Registry that allows you to add any product from any website (including melissaandersonstudio.com) to your registry. Just drag the “Add to The Knot” button from the bottom of your wedding registry to your browser’s favorites bar. Then it’s as easy as navigating to the painting’s web page and clicking the “Add to The Knot” button to add it directly to your registry.

I hope this helps check a box on your wedding to-do list. Happy planning!
