From the very beginning of our live painter inquiries, we could tell that Yurik was extremely knowledgeable and passionate about his work. We were looking around for a live wedding painter, and what drew us in the most was a previous painting he had done for someone else’s wedding that is so stunning, and we knew that he would create something magical for us as well based on that one alone.

The initial phone calls and meetings we had with him went so smoothly, he answered all our questions and gave us so much advice and other helpful tips that would make our vision come to light more. We were also very 50/50 on whether our setting would be in the church or in our second location and he was very patient with us until we made that decision the day before the wedding. He never made us feel rushed at all during this whole process which was great as it’s something so unique that you will have forever.

As for the actual painting, both me and my husband cannot believe what he created. I think it is my favorite thing in the whole world right now. The reactions from all our family and friends at the wedding were unreal too. For the last 30 minutes of our reception, all remaining guests gathered around and you heard so many exclamations of shock and awe and every iPhone popped up in the air to capture what he had started. And it wasn’t even close to how stunning the finished product is now.

Every time we think about having this painting in our home for the rest of our lives, we get so excited. It is so beautiful and he captured our likeness so well. He even added and edited things that we asked to be changed. He is just amazing and both my husband and I cannot recommend him enough. A very talented and kind-hearted artist who was so fun to work with.

Asking Yurik to join us for our wedding day was easily the best decision we made during the wedding planning process. We, along with our guests, loved watching Yurik bring our special moment to life right in front of us and turn it into a beautiful piece we will enjoy for years to come! An attentive professional, Yurik planned the painting and it's contents with us from the beginning in order to deliver exactly what we wanted. Thank you, Yurik!

We had the pleasure of working with Yurik as our live wedding painter, and he did a fantastic job capturing a beautiful moment from our day. He called a few times beforehand to understand our vision and was so communicative throughout the whole process. It was his first Indian wedding, and he was genuinely excited to be part of it. The final piece turned out beautifully, and our guests loved watching him paint live. We’re so happy to have this special keepsake—highly recommend Yurik!
