Mary Jo Bradley- Live Art Painting & Custom Guest Portraits

I have used Mary Jo twice and I can’t say enough amazing things. We hired her for our Gala and she painted around 150 guests. Our guests LOVED her work and their paintings. She’s professional, easy to work with, and an amazing artist. I will definitely be booking her a third time!

Mary Jo was such an incredible addition to our wedding day! The guests raved about her paintings, and I know they’ll be thrilled to receive them. As someone who was nervous about guests leaving their thank you gifts behind, this is the perfect way to guarantee they’ll have a personalized keepsake forever! I highly recommend hiring Mary Jo.

Mary Jo created paintings for our wedding, and we truly could not have been happier with how everything turned out. Her work added such a beautiful and personal touch to our day, and they are pieces that Zoe and I will be able to keep and look back on for the rest of our lives.

Beyond being incredibly talented, Mary Jo puts so much care and thought into her work. She captured the feeling of our wedding in a way that photographs alone simply can’t, and having something hand-painted from such an important day makes it even more special.

We absolutely love what she created for us and would highly recommend Mary Jo to anyone looking for a unique, meaningful, and lasting way to remember their wedding day. Her artwork is something we will treasure forever!

Mary Jo was GREAT - we are so happy we hired her for our wedding. She was super kind and responsive, and even went out of her way to add an additional portrait of the bride's parents a couple of weeks after the wedding because they had forgotten to take a picture with her at the reception. Such a fun and unique gift for your guests :)

Watching her work live during our reception was a highlight for every single guest. She brought such a warm, engaging energy to the room, seamlessly blending into the party while crafting a absolute masterpiece in real time. People are still talking about how incredible it was to watch the canvas come to life throughout the night

I knew when I got married that I wanted to do something unique for our guests! Something cool & outside the norm of the usual wedding party favor! Mary Jo did live sketching for an event hosted by my job a few years ago & I knew immediately I wanted to reach out!!! She was so responsive & very easy to talk with!!! She also did a unique “fingerprint painting” of us for our guests to put their mark on! So much fun! Everyone has been raving about how much they love their sketches!!! Would recommend Mary Jo to anyone in a heartbeat!

We absolutely love our wedding painting! Mary Jo captured so much of the love between us, and it’s honestly so special to have that memory in a piece of art we can keep forever.

Working with Mary Jo was an absolute delight from start to finish. Her kindness, professionalism, and ease of communication made the entire process seamless. She truly listened to our vision and captured it beautifully in the painting. It perfectly encapsulates a cherished moment in our lives, and we’ll treasure it for years to come. We are incredibly grateful to Mary Jo for creating something so meaningful for us!

The live guest portraits by Mary Jo were a highlight of our wedding! Throughout the entire evening, people were coming up to us to say how much they loved the idea and how excited they were to see the finished product!

A few of my friends decided to frame their portraits when they got home!

Mary Jo was a pleasure to work with, easy going and did an excellent job. She truly is a master of her craft. We can’t thank her enough for providing this intimate, thoughtful touch to our wedding day!

We can’t say enough wonderful things about our wedding painter, Mary Jo! From start to finish, she brought such a unique, personal, and magical touch to our special day. Not only did she capture beautiful portraits of us as a couple, but she went above and beyond by creating individual portraits of our guests as well — a detail that made everyone feel truly seen and celebrated.

Our family and friends were amazed by the experience — it was like having a live art studio at the wedding! The portraits are stunning keepsakes that we’ll all treasure forever, and watching the artist work throughout the night added such an elegant, interactive element to our celebration.

If you’re looking for a way to make your wedding unforgettable and give your guests a gift theyll cherish for years to come, we wholeheartedly recommend this incredibly talented wedding painter. She captured the spirit of our day in a way that photos alone never could. Truly exceptional!
