“Having Marianne as our wedding painter was such an honor! I can’t recommend her enough! Our guests LOVED watching the painting come together. It’s truly one of our most prized possessions and I can’t thank her enough!”

—Nicole and Joseph, Chateau at Coindre Hall

“We hired Marianne from Married and Painted as a live painter for our wedding. My husband really loved the idea, so we booked with Marianne. Frankly, I didn’t realize how much I would absolutely LOVE this addition to our day. It was the talk of our night and left everyone in awe. Marianne’s talent is incredible, and her personality matches. Now we have a stunning masterpiece for our home, but also provided our guests (both those dancing and not) with the opportunity to watch. Her assistant was able to capture the most beautiful transformation, and really made it all come together. In our opinions, this is by far one of the best additions to anyone’s wedding day.”

“Marianne was the best!!! Her work was stunning and she was a pleasure to work with. My guests loved her work so much too & she said she got new client requests from my wedding so I’m so happy for her. She was professional and easy to work with. The painting speaks for itself, I’ll treasure it forever. If you want to have a live painter, I highly suggest her!!!”

— Kayla & Nick, The Rockleigh

“We are beyond thrilled to have used Marianne to transform our first look into a live painting experience. From the start, she was extremely responsive and such a joy to work with. Marianne made sure to capture everything we were looking for in our painting, and even made a rough sketch so we could envision what it would look like. Our guests loved interacting with her and seeing how the painting progressed throughout the night, and weeks later our guests are still saying its the most unique experience they've seen at a wedding! We were blown away by the final product and words can't do it justice; the details are phenomenal. We were even able to take the painting home that night. We are so grateful to have had Marianne capture our wedding and the painting is a priceless piece we will cherish forever.”

— Jane & Brett, Harkness Memorial Park

“I hired Marianne to paint our wedding as a surprise for my husband. Not only were we impressed, but the guests all raved about her work as well. The painting came out beautiful, with more detail than I imagined. Marianne was a pleasure to work with from our first conversation and all the way through the process. She truly made my vision come to life! Thank you Marianne, if we ever need another painting I know who I will be calling!!!”

— Lauren & Kenneth, Blue Heron Pines

“You absolutely must hire Marianne as your live painter for your wedding. She not only is a phenomenal painter, but is also so kind and patient and brought ease to our big day! The picture we chose didn’t have a sunset and she painted it right in just as we envisioned. We also needed a calligrapher last minute to write out our place cards and she offered to help without hesitation. She even brought them herself the day of our wedding and they were beautiful and perfectly matched the font on our invitations. She always responded promptly to emails and encouraged any questions we had about our wedding day in general. Having a live painter really adds to your special day, and we loved having something tangible to bring home the night of that we didn’t have to wait weeks for to bring us back to the best day of our lives! 🎨👰🏻‍♀️🤵🏻‍♂️”

— Carly & Kyle, Le Chateau

“My live painter cancelled on me a couple of days before my wedding and my dad surprised me and rebooked a new painter! I wanted to give her and immediate and special shout-out from my wedding and show off her incredible work! She is the kindest and sweetest person ever and her painting is incredible!!! I highly highly recommend her if you’re looking for a live painter!”

— Emily & Michael, The Watermill

“Marianne produced a breathtaking canvas of my husband and I’s wedding day. Mar captured the mood of the beach sunset and texture of the sand, sky & clouds. The details of my lace wedding dress are accurate and intricate. This painting is my favorite wedding gift and I will keep it forever. I hope many others get delight out of being Married & Painted! Thank you, Mar<3”

— Lauren & Shay, Ca’ d’Zan

“We are so happy we decided to add a live painter to our special day. This was hands down one of the best things at our wedding. Marianne is incredibly talented and worth every penny, we HIGHLY recommend her! All of our guests were so impressed with her talent and process. She provided a timelapse for guests see as she continued to paint throughout the wedding. At the end of the night we went home with our painting that we will treasure forever. We can’t thank you enough Marianne! See you next year at our son’s wedding!”
