Custom Then & Now Couple Anniversary Watercolor Portrait from Two Photos — Wedding Day & Today Canvas with Names & Years
The day you said "I do." The life you built after. One canvas, two moments, all the years between.
Send us two photos — your wedding day (or your very first photo together) and one from today — and our artists paint them side by side as a single hand-finished watercolor portrait on premium gallery-wrapped canvas. The nervous newlyweds and the couple who still hold hands, wrapped in soft sage and blush botanicals, finished with both names, your "then" and "now" years, and a script line like 25 Years of Us.
Why this beats every other anniversary gift
- Two photos, one love story. The wedding photo next to a recent one — the years in between become the art. Old prints, scanned photos, and phone snapshots all work; we restore fading and scratches.
- Your names, your years, your words. Both first names in classic serif lettering, plus the two years (e.g. Then · 2001 / Now · 2026). Choose the script line: "25 Years of Us," "Still I Do," "Forever & Always," or write your own.
- Museum-quality canvas. Archival, fade-resistant inks on thick artist canvas, stretched around a solid 1.25" wood frame. Ready to hang straight out of the box.
- Free digital proof. You approve the artwork before we print — unlimited tweaks until it's perfect.
- Made to order in the USA. Every canvas is printed, stretched, and inspected by hand.
How it works
- Choose your size and orientation — landscape places the photos side by side; portrait stacks them then-over-now.
- Upload your two photos and enter your names, years, and script line using the options above.
- Approve your proof. We send a preview within 2–3 business days.
- Hang and enjoy. Your canvas ships within 3–5 business days of approval.
