A live wedding painting of your ceremony or first dance…or delight your guests with custom live watercolor guest portraits

View Gallery

Live wedding paintings are a unique, one-of-a-kind piece of artwork that captures the special moments of a wedding day. Whether I paint your ceremony, first dance, or watercolor portraits of your guests, they are like snapshots of love full of vibrant colors and emotions.  Part of the experience is chatting with wedding guests as they find themselves somewhere in the painting and children love to stand by my side and watch the process.  I love capturing the essence and atmosphere of a wedding day and providing cherished keepsakes for couples and guests to treasure forever!

    Lanier Moore Myatt, 11.28.20 ~ Perry, GA

    "Ashley painted our wedding ceremony and it is the most special piece of art in our house! We love having it to remember our special day! She even added our sweet dog who wasn't able to be there on our wedding day.  Sweet memories perfectly captured by Ashley!"

    Anna Freeman Lee, 12.31.22 ~ Statesboro, GA

    "My guests still talk about how much they loved the watercolor couple portraits that Ashley did at my reception! She was the perfect touch and made our evening even more special!  She is just as sweet as she is talented and we so enjoyed having her!"

    Tiffany Bottoms, 3.4.23 ~ Roanoke, AL

    I love the whimsy style of Ashley's work!  She did an amazing job of capturing our special moment so perfectly.  Her attention to details made our portrait even more personal. She mesmerized our family and friends and they watched in awe as she crafted our painting, live, in front of us.  She was absolutely stunning, super friendly, very accommodating, willing to travel a long distance, and made sure we were well pleased with her work.  Thanks for everything, Ashley!

    Leisa Houghton, 11.13.21 ~ Savannah, GA

    I had the pleasure of having Ashley as our live wedding painter at my daughter's November 2021 wedding, and I couldn't be happier with the experience!  From the outset, Ashley was incredibly accommodating and professional. What sets Ashley apart is her keen eye for detail and her ability to add those unique, personal touches that make the painting one-of-a-kind.  She not only created a beautiful piece of art, but she also managed to capture the atmosphere, mood, and the love that permeated the wedding day.  I can't recommend Ashley Wren enough for her live wedding painting services.  She is not just a talented artist, but also a warm and personable professional who will go the extra mile to make your wedding day even more special.  Thank you, Ashley, for creating a masterpiece that will be cherished for a lifetime!

    Jennifer Tabb, 10.17.20 ~ Philadelphia, MS and 6.30.23 ~ Meridian, MS

    Ashley is so talented. She was a pleasure to work with not once, but for TWO special weddings.  She and I were in constant contact before both weddings. She was so kind to all of our guests and they enjoyed watching her and seeing the final product at the end of the night.  The finished products were more than I could have imagined. These paintings will be cherished for many, many years. These one-of-a-kind paintings are PRICELESS treasures! Thank you, Ashley!

    Briden Dyess, 4.29.23 ~ Savannah, GA

    Ashley did a painting of our ceremony at our wedding and it turned out amazing! We are so glad we did it and have it hanging in our home. I would definitely recommend looking into doing this!

    Wendi Hiller, 9.3.22 ~ Statesboro, GA

    We can't recommend Ashley enough!  From the start, she was so accommodating and easy to work with! We had a bit of a rainstorm during my daughter's ceremony and we had to completely move and rearrange Ashley's entire set up for the reception.  She got it done, though!  And our guests totally loved the watercolor portraits she did for them!  She did exactly what we wanted, and it was the perfect little gift for the guests!

    Cathy Rollin, 3.10.18 ~ Statesboro, GA

    Ashley is so very talented!  Her unique style captured my son's wedding as she painted such beautiful details of the bride and groom and entire bridal party live during the ceremony! My son arranged this as a surprise for his bride as a wedding gift!  Little did he know,  his bride had arranged for Ashley to paint a childhood memory of our family hunting lodge for his wedding gift! Ashley was warm and personable and loved keeping the surprises a secret!  The bride and groom were thrilled with their artwork...both pieces are prominently hanging in their home, preserving special memories for a lifetime! Thank you for your special touch, Ashley!

    Live Wedding Painting Information

     

    PAINTING SUBJECT: Client/wedding planner will let me know what you would like painted for the event.  I can do the actual wedding ceremony including all of the wedding party, or the first dance, etc.  We will discuss details such as bridesmaid dress colors, groomsmen attire, flower colors, etc. at least one month prior to the event and if possible, visit the location.  If not, pictures of the wedding location or reception are greatly appreciated.

    Planner/client will let me know verbally or via emailed map what location is best as well as what location to set up afterwards while I paint during the reception.  All paintings will be complete by the end of the event as long as there is at least a four hour window.  Weddings/receptions shorter than 4 hours will likely have to be finished at home and returned to the couple within 14 days.   If there are any small changes afterwards such as bridesmaids hair color, adding a beard, etc., this is included in the cost.

    MATERIALS: All live wedding paintings are painted on a 24"x36” canvas with 1 1/2” gallery-style profile unless otherwise discussed.  The artwork will be presented at the end of the reception on an easel that will be collected by wedding planner/parents of bride/groom, etc and returned to The Painted Wren at the earliest convenience. I would only need an electrical outlet for my light nearby.

    PAYMENT SCHEDULE:  A 50% deposit/retainer is required upon the signing of this agreement to secure the date.  Retainers will be deducted from the final balance.  A final invoice will be submitted to the guarantor with total contract price no later than one month before the event and the final balance to be paid within fourteen (14) days of receipt of invoice.  Final payment to be paid by cash, check or certified funds.  Services will not be rendered without full payment.  

    PRICING:   Tier 1 pricing (message me for details) for a local wedding (in and around Bulloch County) and Tier 2 pricing (message me for details) for out of town (up to two hours driving distance). If beyond 2 hours driving distance, I ask for hotel accommodations for one night. Each additional hour driving time will be an additional expense.

    TIMELINE:  I typically set up and begin painting the background one hour prior to the wedding or reception start time (depending on which event I am painting).  I would ask that the wedding

    PRICING: Tier 1 pricing (message me for details) for a 4 hour wedding reception (in and around Bulloch County and up to 2 hours travel time). I will paint at least (50) 5"x7" live watercolor guest portraits (each portrait takes 6-12 minutes and I will complete as many as possible in person).  If I am unable to paint all portraits, I will complete the remaining at home and will return portraits to bride within 14 days.  

    Tier 2 pricing for additional 25 portraits completed at home  (total of 75) 

    Tier 3 pricing  additional 50 portraits completed at home (total of 100) 

    Tier 4 pricing for additional 75 portraits completed at home  (total of 125+) 

    In my experience, approximately 1/3 of wedding guests take advantage of this special experience/gift.

    TIMELINE:  I typically set up and begin painting one hour prior to the wedding or reception start time. Polaroid photos will be taken of all guests wanting a portrait and their name/cell number obtained to contact when ready.  All portraits will be placed in a sturdy, cellophane bag and displayed in the manner the bride would prefer. 

    MATERIALS: All live wedding paintings are painted on a 5x7 watercolor paper. I would only need a 6 foot table, tablecloth, and electrical outlet for my light nearby.

    PAYMENT SCHEDULE:  A 50% deposit/retainer is required upon the signing of the agreement to secure the date.  The remaining  balance is due one month prior to the wedding.  Any extra balance will be due when I give you the extra portraits painted at home.  If beyond 2 hours driving distance, I ask for hotel accommodations for one night. Each additional hour driving time will be an additional expense.
