Showcase at Eagle Oaks

Part of working in the wedding/ Bar mitzvah industry is taking part in event showcases. These are gatherings for future brides and their families to come and meet all sorts of relavent vendors in one place.

Eagle Oaks golf and country club in Farmingdale, NJ is a stunning location for a special event, and they hosted a wonderful bridal show on Feb. 16, 2011. Over 50 Brides-to-be came with family and friends and mingled with photographers, djs, and for the first time, a live event artist. Sometimes at a showcase people do not understand exactly what I do just by glancing over at my set up. Once I explain to them that I come to their wedding and create a painting depicting the scene of the reception or ceremony live, for guests to see, and them to take home at the end of the evening; most want to book my services on the spot.

I'm very pleased to announce that Eagle Oaks Golf and Country Club now has me on their website as a preferred vendor, and I look foward to creating many live wedding paintings there.

NYC Wedding Painting at the Yale Club

NYC is one of my favorite places in the world, and the city that will always have my heart. That's why I get super excited when I get to go into manhattan to paint live at a wedding. I lived in Manhattan for five years durring college, and had I not married a true suburban man, I'd still be there.
   I was hired to paint live at a wedding at the Yale Club in midtown. This wedding felt glamourous and sophisticated. The entire room was uplit in pink which gave it a romantic glow. Tableclothes were a rich burgandy with varying floral arrangements placed in the middle. I love when a bride (and florist) are bold enough to step outside the box of standard uniformed centerpieces for each table, and do coordinating  arrangements that differ in size and shape. The large bamboo leaves that loop through each arrangement ties the whole look together.
    Asside from the beautiful decor ( which I feel I captured well in the painting) was the 12 piece band. This band was wonderful and guests danced the entire evening. I was told that this band was on the Today show for the BIG WEDDING GIVEAWAY a few years ago, they are called Faze4.

Pleasantdale Chateau wedding Painting

The Pleasantdale Chateau in West Orange, NJ is one of the most breathtaking venues for a wedding or special party. as a live event artist, or artist who paints the scene of wedding receptions, I have gotton to experience just about every banquest facility new York and New Jersey have to offer.

I was hired to create a painting capturing the scene of the reception, as well as the bride and groom's first dance, and some very special guests. I think the painting turned out beautifully, and the couple was thrilled!
