What should you have painted?

Your painting can be so many things! To me, it should be a reflection of the love and spirit of your wedding day. If there is a certain scene that encapsulates that for you, maybe your first kiss or first look, then choose that! If you are not particular about a specific scene, I would love to arrive to your wedding day and surprise you with a painting that speaks to me on that day after seeing your venue and the spirit of your wedding. Just let me know!

Oil Paint vs Acrylic Paint

Oil painting as an art form has been around for almost as long as people have been making paintings. Acrylics on the other hand are a newer, more modern medium. Acrylic paint dries very quickly, making is easy to paint fast by layering paint. Oils dry very slowly. The quick drying acrylics makes layering possible sooner than with oils, especially when you don't want the colors to blend. But the slow dry time of oils, the lengthier workable time, means it's easier to blend, soften, and change colors and shades. Oils are also more highly pigmented, so the colors are brighter and truer, richer and more vivid, and last longer, perfect for passing down through generations!

Add-on (bridal bouquet painting)

Right now I am offering the addition of a bridal bouquet painting with any package. This would be a 14x18” canvas painting, done with professional quality acrylic paint. This will be completed in my studio and be ready to ship roughly one month after the event. $300

Travel

I do not charge for travel if the event is within a two hour drive of Lexington, KY. If the event is within a five hour drive, I charge per mile for gas and one night hotel stay for anything over a three hour drive. For any further travel that requires airfare there are additional travel fees.

FAQs

  • Yes! I require a 25% deposit at the time of booking, and the remainder by the day of the wedding.

  • I will send you a contract to sign and an invoice for the 25% deposit. About 4-6 weeks before your wedding I will send you a detailed questionnaire to go over all of the details in your painting. We can also schedule a phone consultation at this time. On the day of the wedding I will arrive to the venue 2-3 hours early to begin painting in the background, and then paint through the ceremony and into the reception. I will take the painting back to my studio for additional touch ups and details, and then send it back to you within 6 weeks.

  • The scene is completely up to you! Some common examples are a first kiss, exchanging vows during ceremony, walking back up the isle of the ceremony, and first dance.

  • Yes, of course!
