Taylor M. Sent on 12/18/2023Perfection!
Beautiful work, beautiful person, beautiful memories. I am so unbelievably grateful that the universe sent me the gift of Julia. I decided to book Julia’s services as a surprise gift for my then-fiance on our wedding day. Julia was a true joy to work with, especially given that we had the added element of keeping her a surprise. She coordinated with our venue directly and took my payments incrementally, so my husband wouldn’t notice the loss. I’ve attached the pictures here, but truly nothing does her artwork justice. HIGHLY recommend!Julia Mooney Live Event Painter's reply:
Thank you Taylor! It was so fun to be a part of the surprise for your husband. Your first dance was the absolute sweetest and I was honored to capture that memory for you both! -

5/5 Experience
Wow! What a wonderful experience. To begin with, Julia was excellent at communicating with my mom, who was the one who booked her. My mom said she was responsive and quick to answer messages. Julia was super easy to work with and we had a phone call 2 days before our wedding to discuss what we wanted painted. I gave her full creative freedom, with one stipulation of I wanted the scene to be outside. Julia KILLED it. It is the most beautiful painting ever and I am still in awe of it. It was such a nice addition to the wedding, our guest loved walking over and seeing the progress. I am so happy with how everything came out and so thankful to have such a beautiful keepsake of our wedding day. Julia is talented at her craft and we are so lucky she was apart of our big day! Definitely check her work out and consider hiring her for your wedding, you won’t regret it!Julia Mooney Live Event Painter's reply:
Thanks Alissa! I had such a great time making your painting. Thank you for the privilege of making sometime special for you live on your big day! -

Julia is extremely talented! I recommend her for any type of event - wedding, baby shower, bridal shower etc! I wanted something unique and memorable for my guests that wasn't your typical favor, photobooth or interactive station. I let her know my vision and inspiration and she blew me away. Still after 3 months since our wedding, our guests are still talking about their water color portraits!! Thank you so much for being a part our day! -

Julia did an amazing painting for us at our wedding this past July! She was professional, detail-oriented, and a truly talented painter! The guests all loved watching Julia create her work of art, as she worked throughout the reception guests were “oooing” & “ahhhing” at her truly perfect creation. I highly recommend her services for anyone searching for a wedding painter.Julia Mooney Live Event Painter's reply:

Ryan M. Sent on 04/22/2024Julia is so wonderful to work with, we love our painting!
Julia helped me surprise my soon to be wife on the day of our wedding with her services as a wedding gift. She was so easy to work with in planning, super responsive, and the value for her services and talent beats anyone else in he industry. Our guests were enamored with how quickly and efficiently she worked throughout the night, and she did such a great job capturing our moment and the beauty of our venue. We got married in an aquarium and she captured the ambience, the lighting, and the floor-to-ceiling tanks perfectly and even a nice big shark in the background. She even took the time to capture our custom monogram being projected on the wall and the detail was awesome.
She helped to take our night to the next level and when the painting was revealed to us on the floor at the end of the night the reaction of my new wife was worth it all. It's definitely something we can't wait to frame and cherish in our future home forever.
Thanks Julia!Julia Mooney Live Event Painter's reply:
Thank you for having me Ryan! It was such an honor to be a special part of your big day. And it was so much fun surprising Rachel! -

She was lovely from the beginning. Not a crazy price because she u derstands the struggle and stress of getting married
I loved every second with her. My guests were extremely impressed watching a painting come to life. She wasn't in the way, just did her own thing! I had a big reveal at the end of the night. It was soo perfect!!Julia Mooney Live Event Painter's reply:
Thank you so much for taking the time to write this sweet review! Your wedding was so refreshingly authentic and beautiful in its simplicity. It was so fun to paint the chickens in the background and your parents sweet dog next to you. Congratulations!!! -

Julia was a fantastic vendor! She painted my wife and I's first dance on September 24th, 2023. The detail-orientation of this paint is so eye catching and very thoughtful toward both of our favorite dresses, culture and most importantly the theme! I love the vibrancy of colors she used, and it truly captures the best aspects of our Soirée de Xiānnü ♥️Julia Mooney Live Event Painter's reply:
Oh! Chills! I’m so glad you were happy. I tried so hard to honor all of you and your wife’s special qualities as well as the unique beauty of your special day! Congrats and thank you for the kind words 💕💕💕 -

Isra A. Sent on 01/10/2024So so amazing!!!
Working with Julia was so amazing! I loved the flexibility she offered when I asked if she could do my live painting with watercolors instead of acrylic. She was actually super excited for the change and that made me even more confident in her work. Julia is so kind and I loved working with her so much. She did such a beautiful job and respected everything that I requested. Truly such a treat to work with and she captured such a wonderful memory that I get to look at every day in my home! -

Emily E. Sent on 08/23/2023Wonderful Artist and great to work with!
When wedding planning, hiring a live painter was one of the few things my husband and I disagreed on. He wasn't sure if it was worth the extra cost, but boy did Julia prove him wrong! The piece of art she created is absolutely stunning, she was kind and conscientious to work with, and guests were in awe of the spectacle of her painting it right there at the reception. Her price point was very fair and worth every penny for both having her there at the wedding and also the keepsake we keep forever So happy hiring Julia is now the first "I told you so" of our marriage, LOL!Julia Mooney Live Event Painter's reply:
Thank you Emily! I had such a blast painting your fairytale wedding:) The way you sung to your husband was my favorite!!! -

First I would like to say thank you to Julia for being apart of our special day.When we first booked Julia we had no idea what we were going to get all we new was “how cool would it be to have a live painter” We didn’t talk to Julia much throughout the process,She asked us one question and that was at what moment do you want me to capture the picture.We told her whatever you feel is best take a shot..And she did just that and captured a magical moment and put it on canvas.Julia thanks for an incredibly amazing picture on canvas the detail that you put in this was impeccable we absolutely LOVE IT,So she did ask if we wanted to see or a reveal and we chose reveal..When we saw it another magical moment was captured..Again thank you Julia.#Chris&Tanishawedding 6/2/23Julia Mooney Live Event Painter's reply:
