Live Wedding Painting

Live Painting on the Day of Your Wedding

Having a live wedding painter at your wedding is so much more than a painting. It’s a unique experience that you and your guests will rave about for years. It’s live entertainment at your wedding reception, it’s a memento that will hang on your wall; a constant reminder of how incredible your big day really was.

Your live painting can be any scene from your ceremony or reception, or even from your pre-ceremony photoshoot. We can even combine elements from different scenes, or highlight specific aspects of your venue, decor, etc. Your painting can be anything you want it to be. Let’s turn your dream wedding into a painting for you to cherish forever.

Kristin is an AMAZING wedding painter! She did ours live and it turned out phenomenal. She is very professional and it was also great entertainment for our guests (especially during cocktail hour), and we were able to have it back in a couple of days after the wedding!

When you hire me as your live wedding painter…

When you hire me as your live wedding painter, I will be another smiling face doting on you on your big day. Before your wedding, we’ll chat on the phone or over Zoom at least once to ensure that we are on exactly the same page for what you want in your painting. I like to get to know you as much as possible because that gives me a feel for the spirit of the painting. I can literally paint anything you want. Do you want your dog in your painting? You got it. Do you want me to highlight and feature your floral arrangements? Done. I can modify and alter anything to be anything you want, or I can paint a scene exactly as it was. This is YOUR wedding and this is YOUR painting.

During your reception, I’ll set up so your guests can watch the painting progress throughout the night. They can stand over my shoulder, they can chat with me, ask questions, provide opinions — we all have that family member, am I right? ;) I will dance while painting when your DJ plays my jams, and I can’t promise you won’t hear me singing, too.

I am happy to paint for any couple of any race, gender (or non-), sexual orientation, religion, etc. As long as you are a decent person, we will get along just fine.
