Live Guest Portraits

A favor your guests will NEVER forget!

Treat your guest like royalty by having them painted! Live Guest Painting is a one of kind wedding favor. Not only does it entertain and wow your guests, it also is a cherished keepsake for them to take home and frame. Something that will remind them of your wedding every time they look at it!


These 5" x 7" watercolor and pen and ink sketches are painted in an impressionistic style with a focus on hairstyle/color, attire and skin tone.  Each painting is completed in 5-10 minutes per person, 10-15 minutes per couple) and guest get to take the original, signed artwork home with them. All paintings are completed on archival, cold-pressed luxe watercolor paper and are enclosed in a clear plastic sleeve for protection. Custom monogramming or dating is also available.

The Process

Live Guest Portraits done by Event Painting By Erin

We will arrive before the ceremony to set up in order to begin painting guest portraits at the start of cocktail hour and into the reception.   During the ceremony, we will paint a portrait of the bride and groom.


When cocktail hour starts, we will begin taking photos of the guest who come to the table (not all guests want to be painted).  We will begin painting each guest (or couple) from our photographs. Your wedding guests will be amazed and excited about their custom portrait they get to take home with them that evening. 


We will have a sign on the table that says, “Live Watercolor Guest Portraits,” but it can be helpful to consider where people will be congregating for the table placement and having someone make an announcement to draw guests toward getting their photos taken.


On average, it take about 5-10 minutes to draw and paint each person, 10-15 minutes per couple. Each portrait is ink and watercolor paint on a 5x7” piece of watercolor paper, and wrapped in a plastic sleeve for safe keeping as the guests bring them home. The paintings will be ready for framing and displaying in your guests’ homes to remember your wedding day.


Any remaining photos that have not been painted by the end of our time will be completed and mailed to the bride and groom following the wedding day.


**Please note, we will only draw and paint from photos that we take during the event, and not all paintings will be completed on-site. **
