Live Wedding Painter - Marcela Buckley
My name is Marcela and I'm a live wedding painter based in Dublin.
What's a Live Wedding Painting?
A live wedding painting is a unique, one-of-a-kind experience where I will attend your wedding and paint a moment from your special day while your guests get to watch it come together. Whether it’s your first kiss, your first dance or a candid giggle with your new husband or wife, I will beautifully capture this moment in a painting throughout the day. So while it’s entertainment for your guests throughout your day, you get to keep a beautiful painting at the end of it all. (It also makes a great gift from family members or friends)
How does it work?
A few weeks before the wedding we will hop on a video call to discuss the vision of your painting or if you would like me to take creative control. During this call we will talk about the scene you would like painted, poses and any other details e.g. if you would like a pet in the painting (who might just steal the show).
On the wedding day I will arrive an hour or 2 before your guests so that the painting is underway when everyone arrives. During the scene we chose on the call, I will grab some photos and videos to use as reference throughout the day. I will try to take as little time out of your day as possible so I will try to jump in with the photographer for this step.
I will then spend the day and evening painting and chatting to guests about her process as they please. This is a big part of the fun!
At the end of the night the painting will be mostly complete, that’s when I will come find you to show you your painting before I leave (photographers & videographers can capture this moment too if they're still around)
I will then take the painting back to the studio for touch ups, finer details, varnishing and framing before sending it to you to hang in your forever home.
If you’re up for adding a dash of creativity and a statement of style to your wedding, I’m your gal!

Reviews of Live Wedding Painter - Marcela Buckley
At a wedding, a bride and groom naturally want everything to be perfect on their big day, however, when you pick to have a live painting completed at your wedding, you won’t know the outcome, this could lead to a lot of unwanted nerves except when it comes to Marcela’s art.. you get what you expect which is nothing short of perfection. Marcela is outstanding at what she does, not only is Marcela’s art outstanding but her natural ability with engaging with a crowd and professionalism is what every bride and groom hopes for when picking a vendor for a service. Myself and my new husband can not express in words our love for our painting, it is PERFECT, it is something a camera could have never captured. Our guests, a couple of weeks on from the wedding are still speaking about Marcela and Marcela’s art and how fantastic having a live painting is to have as a memory to hang on your wall forever. I cannot recommend Marcela enough to any future bride and groom, the process was seamless and Marcela’s communication was excellent. Marcela’s concentration was admirable and her elegance when painting was a visual our guests were mesmerized by. If you are thinking of booking a live painter for your big day or any occasion, look no further than Marcela. Thank you again Marcela !
On the day of the wedding, Marcela was an absolute delight to work with. She was so friendly and approachable, and her passion for her craft shone through in everything she did. Watching her create a beautiful painting of my friends was truly mesmerising, and it was wonderful to see everyone else enjoying it too.
The best part about gifting Marcela's service was that I got to enjoy it too. It was a truly unique and special present to give, and it was great to be able to point out on the day that that was the gift I had given. Marcela created the most perfect picture of my friends, and it was heartwarming to see their faces light up when they saw it.
The painting itself was flawless, and Marcela took it away at the end of the night and put on the most perfect finishing touches afterwards. Now my friends have it proudly hanging in their house, and it's such a joy to call over and see my wedding gift hanging on the wall.
I couldn't recommend Marcela enough! She is an incredibly talented artist and an absolute pleasure to work with. If you're looking for a unique and unforgettable gift, Marcela's live wedding art is the perfect choice.
