Kate Dupre , artist and owner of the WATERCOLOR CAFE says , " I love working with couples to create personalized pieces for their Island wedding . Utilizing their unique color and floral schemes , even incorporating the venue or special motifs , I make sure the art is unique for each wedding . As a Mackinac local , I have a familiarity with the scenes I ' m painting and I am always happy to make suggestions on subject matter . Weddings can go further to include an illustrated itinerary , colorful map of the venues , personalized labeling for favors , wedding day signage , and wedding website graphics . Original artwork is always mailed to the couple as a keepsake , as well as digitized for any future usage . "
