Guest sketching start from €1200 for 3 hours in Italy, travel fee excluded

Investing in personalized watercolor portraits for your guests by a live wedding painter Italy specialist for your Italian wedding adds a touch of elegance and charm to your celebration.

The investment for destination weddings in Italy starts at €1200 for 3 hours. It depends on number of guests, number of hours booked and destination. The investment doesn't include my travel from Sardinia to your destination venue in Italy.

The investment for destination weddings outside of Italy starts at €1639 for 3 hours. It doesn't include my travel from Sardinia to your venue.

I’m based in Sardinia, the second major island of Italy, and I always need to travel to get around Italy.

You can pay my service 3 weeks before the wedding. To reserve your wedding date I need only the travel fee as non refundable deposit.

These unique artworks serve not only as beautiful decorations for your event but also as meaningful souvenirs for your guests to cherish long after the festivities end.

Whether you're hosting an intimate gathering or a lavish affair, investing in watercolor portraits by a live wedding painter Italy specialist ensures your wedding day in Italy is truly unforgettable.

Please, keep in mind that I'm based near Cagliari, in Sardinia is the second major island of Italy.

I only charge the client for a portion of the journey. My travel costs are higher compared to other italian artists because I live in Cagliari, on the island of Sardinia. Sardinia faces significant disadvantages in terms of transportation links with the rest of Italy, making travel more expensive and challenging. In most cases, I end up spending more than my travel fee.

If you are getting married near Cagliari, you will not pay the travel fee!

  • For weddings in Italy my travel fee is €300 (not included last minute weddings, you need to book almost 1-2 months in advance)

  • For weddings outside Italy but in Europe the travel fee is €1000 (not included last minute weddings, you need to book almost 1-2 months in advance)

How it works

The first step is to fill out the form and verify that the date of your event is available.
If you want only to know my prices, before inquire read the investment and packages section.

Once the quote is accepted, I will send you the contract to be signed.
And request a non refundable deposit.

If you need it, you can book a call or chat with me.

Upon signing the contract, a non-refundable deposit will be requested as a down payment to secure your event in our schedule and cover the travel costs. You can balance the other payment 10-7 days before your wedding.

I will arrive at the venue approximately one hour before to set up my table, and I will remain for the hours booked according to the contract. I need to make a photo of every guest that comes to my table. I will paint guests in order of arrival.

Please note that I do only speedy wedding guests paintings, limited to 1-2 people per card. My style is what you see in the photos in this page: faceless, colors and details cannot be identical to reality. My style is not realistic. This is how I paint, and I cannot change it. These are 5-10 minutes paintings, it’s impossible to have details in such less time. Basically the pose is always the same. This is to ensure to make as many portraits as possible. Don’t confuse them with my studio paintings that request days to be completed.

I don’t make other live paintings such as: livegroup paintings, live venue or scenery paintings or live bride and groom paintings.
