THE PROCESS
The subject of the painting is decided prior to the event. The bride and groom can choose the wedding ceremony, the first kiss, the first dance(a popular choice), the reception, or any idea can be consulted with Hoa in order to find the best subject for your wedding painting.
On the day of the wedding, Hoa will arrive 1.5-2 hours before the wedding begins, and stay until 30 minutes to 1 hour before the wedding ends. She will paint as wedding guests arrive to the ceremony or reception. Most of the painting will be created live at the wedding. Hoa will take the painting back to her studio for an additional 2-4 weeks to finalize all the intricate details. You will receive a preview of your painting by email before it is fully completed. Painting can be shipped, picked up, or delivered.
Prints, greeting cards, and thank you cards can be made of the finished painting as a keepsake for family and guests.
Hoa travels all over the US and worldwide.
