Description

As your wedding day unfolds, you'll allow me the honour of capturing it for a lifetime. Each painting becomes a lasting reflection of your celebration and the love you share — an investment in something that holds far more meaning than a photograph alone.

How it works

Step 1 — Your consultation

Before the wedding, we'll have a collaborative consultation to understand your vision in detail — the atmosphere you'd like captured, the specific moment, whether you'd prefer the ceremony or the reception as your setting, and any other details that matter to you.

Step 2 — Arrival and set-up

On the day, I arrive 2–3 hours in advance to set up and prepare the scene. This time is also used to take reference photos of the couple, and I begin painting the background so your guests have something visually beautiful to walk into as they arrive.

Step 3 — Live painting

Once your guests arrive, I share the experience of painting you both live, in real time, as part of the atmosphere of your celebration.

Step 4 — Studio finishing

As this is an oil painting, I take it home afterwards to make any final touches or changes you'd like. Oil remains wet for some time, so the piece needs up to six weeks to fully dry before a protective varnish is applied and left to cure.

Step 5 — Delivery

Once fully cured, your finished painting is delivered to you.

Our Promise

100% Love it Guarantee

This painting will hang on your wall for decades. So we think you should adore it, not just accept it. You'll be shown the finished piece before it's sent, your artist will happily revise it, and if it still isn't right, you pay nothing. No awkward conversations, no polite disappointment.

Booking Protection Promise

Flexible Deposits: Secure your date with flexible deposits that suit you, and your budget. Our artists work with your budget, not against it.

Your Artist's Promise

A Free Consultation Call: Every artist offers a short call to talk through your vision properly before anything's finalised, so you're guided by someone who knows what actually works on the day.

Quote Revisions Until It's Right: Not sure on size or package yet? Your artist can revise the quote as many times as you need until it reflects exactly what you want, with no pressure to decide early.

Flexibility If Things Change: From enquiry through to your wedding day, the artist follows up on the details that matter: deadlines, check-ins and next steps, so nothing gets missed on your side.

Frequently Asked Questions

Who am I actually booking?

You're booking your artist directly. TheWeddingPainters connects you with independent artists, and once you confirm your booking, your contract sits directly with the artist you've chosen. We handle the booking process and payment on their behalf, so everything stays effortless and in one place from enquiry to wedding day.

Why should I pay through TheWeddingPainters instead of paying my artist directly?

Paying through TheWeddingPainters keeps your deposit and payments secure, your agreement recorded in one place, and our team on hand to step in if anything about the booking needs sorting out.

If you pay your artist privately, by bank transfer or PayPal, outside our system, we lose visibility of that payment and our ability to help. That matters most in the moment you'd need us: if there's a dispute, or your artist doesn't turn up on the day.

Keeping everything on-platform is what lets us actually protect your wedding day, not just process it.

What should I do if my artist asks me to pay them directly (bank transfer, PayPal, etc.)?

TheWeddingPainters is a booking platform – we help you and your artist keep the booking and payments clearly recorded. If payments happen privately, they won't appear in our system and it may limit how much we can assist if anything needs to be checked later.

If you ever feel unsure or pressured, please contact us and we'll take a look.

Will I lose any protection if I pay outside TheWeddingPainters?

If you pay your artist directly (for example by separate bank transfer, PayPal or cash), those payments won't show in your TheWeddingPainters booking record.

That means:

We can't see what was paid, when, or on what terms
It can be harder for us to help if there's a disagreement about what was included, what's still owed, or whether a refund is due

For that reason, we strongly recommend keeping all payments for your booking within TheWeddingPainters, where we process payments on your artist's behalf and keep a clear record for both of you.
