A Destination Celebration They’ll Talk About For Years

Your loved ones have traveled far, taking time off work, booking long flights, and making real sacrifices for your celebration. You want to honor all of that in a way that feels genuine and unforgettable.

Live portraits say exactly that: “We see you. We’re so grateful you came.” And, they make it clear: you know how to throw a celebration with style.

Your guests take home a hand-painted souvenir that they watched come to life, from the place full of sunlit piazzas, olive groves, and cobblestone streets. Each portrait brings back memories and the joy of the day, from the flutter of the bride’s dress during the first dance to the glow of the candles, and laughter shared over glasses of champagne and plates of tagliolini with truffle sauce.

Packages Overview

  • Colorful watercolor wedding favors of couples and women in formal attire, each labeled with a name, arranged on a marble surface near a bouquet of pink roses and green flowers. The drawings include signature and date details.

    The Grand Tour Collection

    For full-day weddings where art becomes part of the celebration

    With this collection, I spend the entire day painting portraits of your guests on site. It’s designed for weddings where capturing as many people as possible during the event is the goal. There’s no additional studio time afterward—each painting is created live, resulting in expressive keepsakes your guests can take home or receive shortly after. Ideal for celebrations with around 60 to 70 guests.

  • Watercolor painting of a couple in Italy dressed in formal attire, with the woman in a red dress and the man in a tuxedo, labeled with initials and a date.

    The Archivio Collection

    For large weddings where every guest is part of the story

    This collection is designed for couples who want each guest to leave with a hand-painted keepsake. I’ll be on site all day capturing as many portraits as possible, then complete the remaining guests in my studio after the event using my references. The Archivio Collection includes a romantic watercolor of the couple, completed post-wedding in my studio.

    Ideal for weddings where favors are meant to be personal, lasting, and truly unforgettable.

  • Outdoor wedding scene in Italy with trimmed hedge maze, watercolor paintings of fashion models on paper, and paint palettes on a wooden board in a garden setting.

    The Atelier Collection

    For intimate celebrations with a relaxed pace

    This collection is the perfect entertainment for micro-weddings, dinners, elopements, or small celebrations with fewer than 30 guests. I’ll be there for the reception or a half-day portion of your event, painting portraits live as a charming part of the atmosphere. All artwork is created on-site—there’s no post-wedding studio work included. Simple, elegant, and well-suited for slower, more personal gatherings.

How it Works

 

Before the Celebration

We’ll confirm the collection that fits your guest count and timing. Once the agreement is signed and deposit sent, your date is secured. I’ll also send a short questionnaire so I can better understand your vision, aesthetic, and timeline.

Arrival & Set Up

On the day of the event, my assistant and I arrive well before guests to quietly set up. All I need is a shaded rectangular table and two chairs placed somewhere scenic but unobtrusive.

Painting Throughout the Event

I paint steadily throughout the celebration, spritz in hand, as guests stop by to sign up or check on the growing lineup. Once it’s their turn, we snap a quick reference photo so they can head back to the party and keep mingling. My assistant keeps everything flowing — chatting with guests, managing the list, and displaying each finished piece. Each portrait takes about 8 to 10 minutes and captures soft poses and personal style.

Each portrait is painted with care, never rushed. I watch how your guests move, smile, and interact, then paint their essence. Colorful, romantic, and full of charm.
