Out of this world!

We truly cannot even begin to say enough amazing things about Amanda from Live well paint often! We were gifted a live painter for our wedding from my husband’s family and Amanda was thankfully the one chosen to paint a truly special moment on our very special day!

From day 1, Amanda and her team were so organized with scheduling phone calls, answering questions, etc. They were always available to help when needed and we felt more than comfortable that she would do an outstanding job on our wedding day.

Let me just say our expectations were EXTREMELY beyond exceeded because the work she did was something we didn’t even know was possible. To see a blank canvas turn into a snapshot of your wedding day and just thinking of the talent it takes to do that is simply incredible - there’s no other way to say it.

Amanda asked us what we envisioned for our painting before wedding day and she gave us some ideas as she has painted at our venue before. However, on the day of she recognized that we were being pulled in directions to take pictures, talk to guests, etc. so didn’t have much time to sit and chat about the details of the painting once we had some ideas in mind based on the weather that day, etc. We were truly blessed with one of the most beautiful sunsets I’ve ever seen on our wedding day and everyone gathered to take pictures of us outside with the sunset. Well Amanda, as amazing as she is, went out of her way to take her own picture and pretty much just asked “Are you guys okay with me using the sunset and do you trust me”, and we responded with “absolutely”. Well to say the least, she absolutely blew our minds away with her work. She painted us with the sunset in the back outside of our venue, however also incorporated the details of the inside of our ballroom. We were absolutely speechless for the big reveal and just couldn’t believe our eyes! It’s a moment I know neither of us will forget.

Our families and guests have not stopped complementing the picture and the work that was done because it truly captured every detail of our big day!

Overall, we want to say a huge you to Amanda and her team for making our day so extra special. Because of Amanda’s work, we will be reminded every day when we see our painting of the best day of our lives, and the best moments of it. If you are considering a live painter for your wedding, DO IT and if you are deciding who to use, RUN NOT WALK to book Amanda! You will be blown away at the talent she has and forever grateful, just like we are!!!
