mazing and the end result was a piece 100x better than anything I could have imagined in my mind. Her work was a hit with all the guests. We had some little girls at the wedding that could barely take their eyes off her work. Every time I looked up, they were watching her work intently. I would highly recommend hiring her to paint at your wedding. You will not regret it!

Guests cannot stop raving about what a cool touch it was! Do not hesitate & book Lisa right now!

We were absolutely blown away by our wedding portrait and the incredible talent behind it. Our artist was such a joy to have at our wedding—so kind, warm, and genuinely passionate ...
about her work. Watching her paint throughout the night was such a special experience, and our guests couldn’t stop talking about how amazing it was to see the portrait come to life right in front of us.
The detail in the painting is truly immaculate. Lisa captured every emotion, color, and little moment perfectly. It’s more than just a portrait; it’s a piece of art that tells the story of our day in the most beautiful way. Every time we look at it, we’re reminded of the love and joy we felt that night.
We are so grateful for her talent and the heart she put into creating something so meaningful for us. It’s a keepsake we’ll treasure forever. If you’re considering a live wedding painter, we can’t recommend her enough—she made our day even more magical than we could have imagined.🤍

I can’t thank her enough for capturing such a beautiful moment for us, and for including our fur babies 🥹🤍 We love you Lisa!!! You are truly missing out if you don’t have her on your wedding day!!

If you are getting married or have another type of special event coming up, you need to hire Lisa Marie Paints! Your live painting not only becomes a lasting memory for you, it is ...
also entertainment for your guests. Everyone will love seeing the painting come together! Lisa is extremely talented and you will definitely be able to recognize the people she paints. She takes time to talk with you beforehand to figure out exactly what moment of your special event she will be painting. She gives you the chance to make special requests to add in the painting such as pets or relatives no longer with us and has many size options for your final product. We couldn’t believe that we were able to take our painting home at the end of our reception. It is currently hanging above our bed and I look at it daily remembering our fantastic day.

We have had the pleasure of benefiting from Lisa's incredible talent on two occasions! We asked her to live paint a friends wedding as a wedding gift to the couple (it's an amazin...
g gift for couples who already have everything they need!!). The entire reception raved about Lisa's amazing painting and it's so fun to watch her do her thing during the reception! Secondly, we asked Lisa to paint a canvas from a photograph from our own wedding. I have no words to describe how impressed we are with how well it turned out!! During both experiences, Lisa was responsive to emails, clear with costs and expectations and just generally a joy to work with. Could not recommend Lisa any more!! Already booked her for a 2024 family wedding!! The best!!

ng itself and Lisa was so sweet and made everything so easy. It was so cool to walk around at our reception and see her painting, she added a very unique, luxurious feeling to the evening. When Lisa presented our painting to us towards the end of the night, we were stunned. The painting is absolutely beautiful and looks JUST like us! The details that she captured in my dress and florals are perfect and I’m so excited to have this gorgeous keepsake forever. Lisa you are so incredibly talented, thank you so much for making our day even more special!
