5 Reasons You Need a Live Painter at Your Wedding




There are many ways to capture your special day...


There are many ways to capture memories of your special day in this digital age.

The more popular and traditional methods include photography and video, but as the wedding industry grows there are alternative ways that are rising. Especially if you are like most people, where you find these memories stashed away somewhere collecting dust. Or worst yet, they never make it outside of the digital gallery.


But what if we went back to the basics? Back to a time where capturing memories was through a painting?


More and more, live wedding painting is becoming a must have at weddings.


So why should you really consider adding this service for your special day?


1. Awe your wedding guest!

Do you remember turning on your T.V. to watch Bob Ross paint?


Wasn't it amazing to see him start from scratch and work his way into a breathtaking mountain cabin scene with happy little trees surrounding it?


With a live wedding painter at your wedding, you pretty much are able to capture a Bob Ross-esque experience. As your day unfolds, they watch in amazement as your personalize wedding painting is being created right before their eyes.


Not only that, there is an additional layer to this form of entertainment as your guest get to interact with the artist. Most people ask questions about the vision of your piece or the creative process.


If you want to be the talk of the town, a live wedding painter will be the entertainment you never knew you needed.


2. Showcase your personality

Are you light and warm hearted? Or does the dark and moody aesthetic call out your name?


Either way, you will not leave your guest wondering. A professional live wedding painter will be able to take your vision to turn it into a personalize work of art.


What is really neat is that if you are less traditional, you can decide to depict something completely different. You could choose to have a theme from books or movies and really capture it in your painting.


The sky is the limit here... :)

3. Include those most important to you, even if they can't be with you

A special day can sometimes bring us a little sadness in our hearts when we are unable to celebrate with all of our family and friends.


Whether it is due to distance, special circumstances or they are simply not with us anymore, a live wedding painter are still able to include them in your special piece.


4. As an addition to 3, you can include your fur babies

For many, fur babies are our babies. More often than not due to certain circumstances, they are unable to be present when you say your "I dos".


If you work with a professional artist, they should be able to take a photo of your little furry one(s) and include them in your family piece. How cool is that?





5. Let's get physical

After the wedding, you will get your digital gallery more than likely. And if you are like most couples, you will maybe get a few photos printed that will collect dust somewhere. If you are lucky, you may have one or two framed somewhere.


With a live wedding painting, you don't need to worry about scrolling endlessly trying to find the perfect moments in a sea of memories. You will appreciate the convenience that comes with getting your piece and be able to hang it. Every time you catch a glance of your piece, you will find your painting transporting you back to the day you both said "I do". Having something tangible just feels right, especially in a time where we rely so heavily in our technology to stay connected.


Why be simple when you can be great?
