Why Couples Are Choosing Live Painting Experiences
Let’s be real, weddings can be a lot. After that initial explosion of excitement wears of from your engagement, you may be feeling a bit overwhelmed from the large to-do list that just appeared. When I was a newly engaged woman, I know I felt very overwhelmed by all the things I had to consider for my wedding day. A quality photographer, my dream wedding gown, and an affordable venue were all at the top of my list. From there on, I had to decide what details in my budget could stay, and what had to go. So, would a painter be worth it? Why are couples booking live wedding painters? Is it just a trend?
From my personal experience, here is what I found to be true:

Entertain Guests! A wedding is a party after all and if you’re looking to add something memorable that guests will talk about post wedding, hiring a live wedding painter is the way to go! Some painters even allow guests to take the paintbrush and add their own mark to the masterpiece. So fun!
Acquire a one-of-a-kind keepsake. A live painting captures the emotion, atmosphere, and style of your wedding. You have the ability to customize a piece of fine art to hang in your home and be proud of. It’s the most unique keepsake ever!
Capture the emotions and feeling of the day, not just an image. Yes, photographers are able to capture a wedding very artfully. They can freeze time with a click of a button. However, a painting can romanticize and capture the raw emotions and every detail of your special day. Artwork has the ability to capture multiple memories and blend them into one beautiful composition.
Possess their first heirloom as husband and wife. A live wedding painting becomes a family treasure—something to hang in your home, pass down to future generations, and reminisce about for decades.
Having a live wedding painter on your special day is truly something worth considering! I have yet to meet a bride and groom who has regret to hire a service like mine. In fact, many would say it was one of the most important parts of their wedding day, and if they could do it over again, they would in a heartbeat!
