    Magical Maggie

    I had a gorgeous wedding in a castle with the wedding cakes of my dreams and a venue decorated so beautifully that I was in awe when I saw it. Even so, Maggie was by far the most magical part! The work she did was absolutely amazing and will be treasured forever. I cannot express how amazing this painting is, and pictures do not do it justice. Maggie, thank you so much!

    The Ultimate Gift

    What a gift to have this painting. I know it will pass down through future generations. Maggie was absolutely amazing, and her coordinator/sister is equally outstanding. They were extremely professional and took care to follow every instruction and fulfill all the details I wanted. I felt like I was meeting my celebrity crush! She could not have been any nicer, not only to me but to my guests and family who inquired and stopped by her painting set. Cannot recommend enough. She was the most important piece of my wedding by far, and she was the first thing I booked even before I had a date or venue (I actually based everything else around the date that worked for her!)
    I'd relive my wedding all over just to have her there again and share that special moment with my husband watching her add my parents into the portrait (who have already passed on). If I could give 20 stars, I would. Love you Maggie! xx

    If a picture is worth a thousand words, Maggie's portrait of us is a timeless library encased in a single frame.

    If a picture is worth a thousand words, Maggie's portrait of us is a timeless library encased in a single frame.

    She not only captured a moment but eloquently encapsulated years of commitment, months of unfolding emotions, and an essential instance destined to echo through generations.

    With her delicate strokes and masterfully chosen hues, Maggie did more than paint our likenesses; she intricately wove the palpable dream of our special day onto the canvas, bringing to life the most enchanting moment of our lives together.

    Her presence was like a silent hug, that warmed every guest, as they watched her craft our commission.

    Every glance at her work doesn't merely transport us back to the memories of the day; it pushes us into the very second of joy that will perpetually live within our hearts.

    Choosing Maggie to immortalize a snippet of the beginning of our life together wasn’t just a decision; it was an investment. An investment that provides us with a perfect account of our inaugural day, blessing all our tomorrows together.

    Her talent, transcending mere artistry, captures moments with a timeless elegance that now graciously gilds our home and perpetually echoes within our hearts.

    Maggie, from the depths of our hearts, thank you for painting not just the moment, but immortalizing the most cherished memory we hold of one another.

    Your creativity, meticulous attention to detail, and transcendent talent allow us to feel the love for one another through your painting each and every day.

    We are forever grateful.

    Todd and Jessica Dove

    Beautiful painting!

    Maggie was AMAZING!! She painted our ceremony and it was breath taking. She painted throughout the night, and guests LOVED watching her progress. She finished by the conclusion of the reception, and we were able to take the piece home with us. She is beyond talented, and also the friendliest person. She was so sweet and we were so happy to have her at our wedding. We would recommend her to anyone!!

    Once in a lifetime!

    We were lucky enough to have Maggie come to our wedding in England in July 2023 and from the moment we received the initial email saying we had been chosen, we knew that we were in for something special. Even our wildest dreams couldn’t have imagined what a brilliant addition Maggie would be to our wedding. In the lead up to the wedding, nothing was too much trouble and she responded to each of our questions quickly and with enthusiasm for each of our ideas. On the day of the wedding, Maggie engaged with all our guests as they admired the painting as it was coming along; she set up the painting in the room where the wedding breakfast was taking place and it became a huge talking point throughout the day. The painting itself is incredible. The accuracy to detail, the colours, and the specific details we asked for are all amazing and it has become such a special keepsake from our perfect day. In the evening, Maggie spent time talking to our guests and partied with us which is another thing we loved. If you are lucky enough to have Maggie paint for you at your wedding, you will be getting the loveliest person who genuinely cares about what they do, entertainment that will keep your guests talking all day AND a painting that will be kept in the family for generations. We are so grateful to Maggie for everything she did for us. Thank you for making our wedding sparkle even brighter, Maggie!

    The Perfect Wedding Gift

    To begin with, Maggie is the sweetest person ever. Besides her crazy talent, she is an extremely nice person. When we first got the response that Maggie accepted our proposal to come to PR to paint us, we were so shocked and excited.... cause we've been seeing her work for years and were completely in love by each and everyone of them. But, I got to say that the way Maggie portrays the emotion in that moment she captures to paint, is incredible and shocking. Like I can't describe how real the painting feels to us, you can see and feel the same emotions we felt in that precise moment. Besides that the painting is pure PERFECTION. So I would not only recommend Maggie, I would say that if you don't try to have her at your wedding you'll regret it, cause she is literally the best. Love u Maggie❤️

    Best vendor of our wedding

    Unsurprisingly, the most cherished part of our wedding is Maggie’s painting. We basically chose our wedding date based on Maggie’s availability and for a while I was afraid I was building up too high an expectation for Maggie, but she somehow exceeded all expectations. Not only was Maggie able to capture our favorite wedding moment perfectly, she PERFECTLY illustrated our dog and cat after having only seen photos of them. It’s been 7 months since our wedding and the #1 comment we have received from friends and family was how cool Maggie’s live painting was.

    Incredible Addition! Must Have!

    Working with Maggie and having her paint our Ceremony was worth every cent! Her piece turned out amazing! She did an amazing job capturing our special day. Maggie also did an incredible job interacting with our guests and turning her artwork into an interactive experience that all of our guests shared and enjoyed together.

    Worth every single penny!

    We are so happy to have booked Maggie for our wedding! She did a FANTASTIC job on our portrait, it was EXACTLY what I envisioned, and she was a dream to work with! Our guests raved for weeks how cool the concept was and how great the painting looked! We are so proud to hang this painting in our home for the rest of our lives! We would recommend Maggie to anyone! She is worth every single penny as the piece is priceless!

    Something we will treasure forever

    This is the best decision we made wedding wise. Our painting is stunning and we love it so much. Maggie is an amazing person and a talented artist. Our guests loved watching the painting take form during the day.

    Now I just want Maggie to paint the rest of my life, can every day be live painted? 😅

    Forever Treasure for the most Special Day

    I am going to add to the absolutely deserved praise Maggie receives for her work because she is just top-tier amazing. My husband didn’t even know this service even existed but he was on board as soon as I told him about Maggie and her work. We had decided we did not want a videographer for our wedding so we allocated those funds towards event painting. Although there were event painters closer to where we lived, we decided to fly out Maggie because she seemed so worth it and we were not wrong. Before I get into how in awe we and our guests were, I just want to add my further appreciation for Maggie regarding her bookings and courtesy. When I first reached out to Maggie, I asked her if our wedding date was available. She let me know it was and that to confirm the date, to send the deposit. I planned on sending the deposit as soon as I received her response but a financial situation came up and I was unable to send it promptly. I was afraid our date would be taken as we tried to build our budget back up and just assumed Maggie would move on because I had yet to respond to her. Lo and behold, after some time, she got in contact with me when another bride-to-be requested our date. She let me know that since I was the first to call dibs verbally, she contacted me to see if I would still like to book her. I was so happy that she still had the courtesy to let me know even though I was the one that was lagging in response. I took that as a second chance and scrounged up what we could at the moment to ensure we can have her come. My guests were floored at how she brought our event to life and I truly love how she included all the most important people. Her detail work is impeccable and people still rave to me about what a special idea it was to have such talent at the wedding. I cannot wait to frame up the final painting and have it hanging in my forever home. Thank you so much, Maggie!

    You have to work with Maggie-she brings something magical to any event!

    I cannot emphasize how incredibly talented Maggie is! She did individual portraits at my wedding reception. We got an incredible response from our guests who went home that night with a painting of them or their family. Maggie also did a painting of me and my now husband before the wedding and it is truly special. Additionally, Maggie helped me with a gift for my dad. My dad is incredibly challenging to get gifts for and we wanted to do something to say thank you for hosting such an amazing wedding. Maggie painted from a photo of me and my dad when I was a toddler. It brought tears to my eyes and to his as well. She captured the happiness that was portrayed in the photo. She was so kind and very responsive throughout the process. She brought so much to our special day and it was an honor to have her there.

    We LOVE Maggie!!

    First of all, to anyone who is looking for a painter for their same-sex/queer wedding, you can't go wrong with Maggie!! She was so easy to work with and my wife and I absolutely love this painting. Everyone at our wedding was so impressed and in awe of the quality, she was able to capture the moment perfectly. And we loved that we could include some easter eggs in the painting!
    Thank you again Maggie!!!

    My now husband & I had settled on a French Provencal venue outside of Austin, Texas - & I was looking at ways to make our wedding special. I really wanted it to have a French feel without being themed (I am half French, & knew I was going to have actual people from France at our wedding).

    One Friday night I had a thought - "I wonder if there is a watercolor artist who paints portraits, kind of like they do in (albeit my favorite) touristy part of Montmartre," & quickly started googling. My efforts paid off in spades & led me to an article about Maggie & her 5 minute portraits. By Sunday, we had her booked!

    In the year or so leading up to the wedding, Maggie was always available (& super sweet) whenever I had any questions, & I was beyond excited to actually meet her & see her talent in person. She kindly did portraits of my husband & I in advance, & one of our 2 dogs at my request. They turned out beautifully, & she brought them framed to display at our wedding.

    Our guests have not stopped gushing about Maggie. I was so sad that I literally only got to spend about 30 seconds with her after all this time, but everyone was so excited & interested in having Maggie paint their portrait! Ultimately she was able to paint about 70 out of our 105 guests. She was there & ready before our ceremony, & I know a few people who arrived early & got portraits - including 2 of my junior bridesmaids who had snuck out while we were getting ready. According to everyone (&my firsthand experience), Maggie was nothing but lovely, fun & professional. It has been so fun to see our guests' portraits as they share them with us or pop up on facebook. We even got the added bonus of being featured in her new video series, The Wedding Painter, & have a special video souvenir of our wedding day.

    Thank you Maggie for making our day so special. Your talent & skillset are truly unique, & I hope that one day we can actually spend more than 30 seconds together, because you're the best!

    I seriously can't tell you how AMAZING this vendor is to work with and how truly talented she is. Hands down, this is my favorite memory from my wedding! Most people wouldn't consider having a live portrait artist a necessity for their wedding, but believe me you NEED to book Maggie. She is a pleasure to work with and she makes the process so so easy. Plus, having a custom piece of artwork at the end of your big day is so magical. Do not think twice... Book Iamnotmaggie right now before it's too late!

    Maggie is not only a special person, but her work is absolutely incredible. She made our day something to be remembered to the point that our friends still have their portraits hanging in their homes. You cannot go wrong making her part of your special day. Thank you again Maggie.

    I was pintresting like crazy trying to find ways to make our wedding really unique and came across live painting. I did a lot of research and Maggie's work is top notch. Her prices are also comparable to other artists but Atlantans are lucky to have her in our backyard! Maggie has been receptive to my vision from day one, she was personable with all our guests and her painting turned out better than I could've ever dreamed. EVERYONE was talking about the painting even days after, it added such an elegant and unique element to our wedding. Highly recommend!

    Maggie is AMAZING!!!! We saw her work online and knew we wanted her to paint our wedding live. We loved her so much that we flew her to Baltimore from Atlanta just to paint our ceremony. She was so sweet when we chatted via email about what we were looking for, and she created the most beautiful piece of artwork I have ever seen in just a few hours. Not only is the painting amazing and something we will cherish forever, our guests had a great time watching her work and talking with her during the event. If you are looking for an artist- look no further!!

    Maggie is the best of the best!

    I've been a big fan of Maggie's art for years and knew that we had to get her to paint our wedding when it was time. We were so happy that she selected us (she's so popular that she's booked out in advance). She was so professional and so dedicated to her work that she actually left the wedding at about 230am!! Thank you for the easter eggs and for adding our parents into the painting (we look at the painting and think about them), thank you for this piece of art that we will treasure for the rest of our lives. Also a huge thanks to Melody for coordinating everything!! We hope the both of you enjoyed our wedding and France ❤️
