✨ I know your number one concern is your guests’ experience — and it’s mine too. After 26 years as a caricature artist, including 10 in Las Vegas, I chose Gulf Coast weddings because I love being there for brides on the most important day of their lives. With live wedding caricatures, I spread joy throughout your reception while giving guests both entertainment and wedding favors — laughter, connection, and art they’ll keep. Only the best earn 5 stars everywhere, and I do — because I go above and beyond for every couple I serve. “Our guests went home with art they’ll actually cherish — the best decision we made.” — Deja M., Fairhope, AL

Kathy was so wonderful! She came to our wedding and everyone loved having their pictures drawn. She went above and beyond for us. She took pictures of everyone she drew and when she wasn't drawing she was taking other pictures and then she sent me all the pictures the next day. If I could give more stars I would. She is definitely worth having at any event.

Wedding Paintings Live

Woodland Park, CO
  • Live painters & artists
  • Starts at $3,350

My passion is capturing people and moments—those fleeting, emotional connections you want to remember forever. As a live wedding painter, I don’t just create art; I help tell the story of your special day and the connection you share together. There’s something magical about watching a painting come to life right before your eyes, and I love sharing that experience with you and your guests. My goal is to turn your wedding memories into a timeless work of art—one that will be cherished for generations to come.

Lois went above and beyond to make our day so special. She made everything incredibly easy and was very communicative throughout the entire process to make sure every detail was perfect. As a bride there were so many things I was worried about leading up to and on the wedding day but Lois truly made me feel at ease every step of the way. She was very responsive pre wedding, completely present the day of our wedding- ready to celebrate us, initiated conversation with our photographer on getting the best shot without delaying our timeline, and went above and beyond to provide not just a service but entertainment and connection as well. Watching her canvas go from blank to the heirloom worthy piece of art (we now have hanging above our bed) is something our friends and family are still talking about! Not only does Lois capture your day in ways that photos can't, she also brings such an incredibly delightful presence along with her talent. We feel so lucky to have a Lois Sprague original in our home!

Heather Wolfe Art (Live Painting) 

5.0

Knoxville, TN
  • Live painters & artists

Get instant pricing on my website! With over a 1M views on social media, I'm thankful to see such a positive response to my artwork. My whole life I have loved art! My first day of Kindergarten, my parents asked me what I hoped to do at school that day. I responded by saying, "I want to paint, paint a picture for my sister." I studied art in college and received a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Art Education from Tennessee Tech University in 2006. I worked as an art educator for several years and as a full time independent artist since 2012. I have been featured by a number of podcasts, magazines, TV, as a keynote speaker, and across the globe.

Heather changed the vibe of my entire wedding day. This painting experience was gifted to us by my mother in law - and not only is it now a forever keepsake, but it was a TOTAL guest experience. Checking in on our painting throughout the night was so much fun. Our friends and family loved it so much. Working with Heather before our wedding was so fun - we hopped on the phone a week before because she wanted to completely understand my vision and hopes for our painting - and she delivered MORE THAN I COULD HAVE EVER IMAGINED. She was absolutely without a doubt our favorite vendor. Heather was a joy to work with. Not only did she bring such incredible energy to our day, but she also went above and beyond to film so much iPhone content that I would have otherwise NEVER had of our wedding day. She (discreetly) filmed our vows, our grand entrance, my walk down the aisle, etc. I truly would have hired her just for this alone. I was so so soooo thankful to receive all of these (total surprise) from her the next day. This is something that makes Heather stand out amongst other vendors - this did not by any means fall under her promises to deliver but she did it anyway which I think speaks volumes to the person she is. She was so happy to just be apart of our day and capture it for us. If you are on the fence about a live painting experience - this is your sign, BOOK HER ASAP!!! We are forever Heathers biggest fans.

I had the absolute pleasure of seeing Molly from Blush Bloom Studio in action, and I can’t recommend her enough! She painted a live watercolor of the couple’s wedding kiss at the reception, and it was incredible to witness. Her attention to detail, ability to color match, and the way she captured the emotion of the moment in such a delicate, artistic way left everyone in awe. Not only is she extremely talented, but Molly is also a true professional. Her communication was warm, kind, and genuine from start to finish. Watching her work in real time was such a unique and magical experience—and she completed the painting by the end of the reception! If you're looking for a meaningful and breathtaking keepsake for your wedding day, I can’t think of a more special way to capture the moment. Molly’s work is unforgettable!

Heidi did a live painting at my wedding in November of 2021. The whole experience was absolutely incredible! Working with Heidi was a breeze. She walked us through the whole process, keeping it very stress-free for me, and had a smooth time working with our coordinator and venue. Our guests were so taken with the whole event! They would gather around throughout the wedding to watch the painting happen right before their eyes from start to finish. People got a real kick out of spotting themselves in the crowd on the canvas! We completley adore our finished painting and have it hanging on our living room wall. It's a one of a kind piece that means the world to us. Heidi is not only an amazing artist, but just an all around great and lovely person. Having her attend the wedding was our honour!

Hi, I’m Sally! I started my business out of a love for creating art that connects people and preserves special memories. Over the years, I’ve had the joy of painting live at weddings, sketching guests at events, and creating commissioned portraits that become treasured keepsakes for my clients. I value clear communication, a warm and approachable character, and making the live experience as enjoyable as the finished artwork itself. Based in Southern California but always excited to travel, I’m grateful to share my passion with couples, families, and communities through art that celebrates the joy and celebration of life.

During our wedding planning process, my, now, husband and I were trying to think of a unique party favor for our guest. After tons of googling and seeing options for mints, flower seeds, and keychains, I came across Sally and her work and thought, 'This is it.' Sally painted our guest during the reception of our wedding and truly wow'd everyone. We had so many comments on how much fun this was! Her artistry blew us away! I would have her at every one of my events!!!!!

I'm a Portland-based artist who loves connecting with people. Bad Portraits is all about creating a fun and memorable experience for guests who sit with me for quick portrait sessions during your reception. We have engaging conversations while I hand-draw each portrait and give it away as a unique memento and gift from the newlyweds. As an optional keepsake, portraits can be compiled into an illustrated guestbook along with written messages from guests, resulting in a unique and sentimental coffee table book. I scan each one as I draw to save a copy for the book, so guests can keep their portraits as a custom gift when they leave.

Bad portraits is pure magic. Karlee is not just an artist — she’s a storyteller, a connector and a true presence in any room. What makes her work truly unique is the way she captures the essence of each person. At my rehearsal dinner, she created portraits for our families and each one felt so intentional and full of personality. If you’re looking to elevate your event with something truly special, meaningful and fun, book her. She’ll bring your guests together in a way that is rare and deeply appreciated.
