Capture the magic of your wedding day through a timeless keepsake, created on-site at your event!

Live Wedding Painting is a growing trend that brings entertainment and authenticity to your special day. Guests are delighted to watch the painting progress over the course of the event, and the couple will come away with a treasured work of art to be cherished for generations to come.

What’s Included

• Every couple has a unique vision for their wedding. Prior to the event I will have a consultation with the couple to discuss various options for the painting in order to best capture your special day.

• On the day of the wedding, I will arrive at your venue 2-4 hours early to begin painting the background and setting the stage for your special moment. As your guests arrive, I will begin adding in the important details of your day.

• During the reception I will continue to paint so that your guests can see the painting evolve! I will use reference photos captured of the couple during your ceremony or reception. I guarantee 3-5 hours of live painting performance for your event (depending on intricacy of the painting).

• The painting will be created using professional grade acrylics on stretched canvas. You can expect a detailed portrait of the couple, featuring your desired backdrop to capture the scenery, decor, and energy of your day! (additional guests will not be included at this time, but pets can be added for an additional fee).

• By the end of the reception the painting will be about 90% complete. I will then bring the painting back to my studio to add the finishing touches. Please allow up to two weeks for completion.

• Artwork is ready to hang with wire, and with the sides of the canvas painted for a seamless look

• Once the work is complete, I will deliver (local couples only) or ship the painting to you!
