Process

Are you dreaming of a painting that captures your tender kiss during the ceremony or the magical ambiance of your first dance? Your wedding day brims with countless moments, and I'm here to guide you in selecting the perfect one to immortalize!

Before your big day, we'll have a thoughtful discussion about which part of your celebration you'd like to see captured on canvas. Whether focusing solely on the bride and groom or including your cherished guests, the choice is entirely yours! You'll even have the freedom to select the backdrop that best complements your vision. My painting style leans towards impressionism, imbuing your moment with a unique charm, though with less intricate detail due to the live painting process. I work with acrylics, oils, or a blend of both, offering flexibility to match your preferences.

To reserve your wedding date, a 15% non-refundable deposit is required. For late-night weddings located more than two hours away, a hotel stay is necessary, with the associated cost included in the initial deposit. Upon confirmation of the hotel booking, the remaining 85% is due one week before your wedding day. In the unlikely event that I'm unable to attend your wedding, a full refund will be issued along with a complimentary sketch of your special day created from a wedding picture, as a gesture of apology for any inconvenience caused.

If scheduling conflicts arise, rest assured, I'm always available to craft a beautiful wedding painting from a photograph. Your vision remains a priority, regardless of the circumstances!

Your Wedding Day

I'll arrive 1.5-2 hours before your ceremony to set up and begin painting the background. Throughout the ceremony, as guests arrive, they'll witness the creation's inception. Transitioning from the ceremony to the reception, I'll continue painting as the evening unfolds, welcoming guests to observe the progress. At the night's conclusion, I'll unveil the painting to the bride and groom!

If the painting isn't completed during the wedding, I'll take it back to my studio for final touches. Expect your finished piece within 12 weeks post-wedding, aiming for 8 weeks or less. Shipping charges will apply if pick-up or drop-off arrangements can't be made. Rest assured, your painting will be carefully bubble-wrapped and shipped in an art box via UPS. Drop-off options are available within a 25-mile radius.

Please note that each painting is customized to suit each couple's preferences, so the options mentioned may vary. Prices are influenced by factors such as canvas size, subject complexity, and travel requirements. I charge 60 cents per mile over 30 miles for travel. Additionally, frames are available for an extra charge.
