TL;DR: Thinking about a photo booth for your wedding? Consider a live wedding painter instead — for a similar spend, you get an original piece of art and a guest experience they’ll never forget.

Let’s talk about wedding budgets for a sec. You want your day to feel unique, memorable, and you. But it’s easy to feel like you have to keep adding things to your list (photo booth, signage, favors, late night snacks…).
What if you didn’t have to spend more — just spend different?
If you’re looking for something original, emotional, and truly one-of-a-kind, a live wedding painter might be the perfect alternative to a traditional photo booth.
Here’s why couples are skipping the props and choosing paint instead:
1. IT’S A UNIQUE GUEST EXPERIENCE
Photo booths are fun, but we’ve all seen them. A live painting happening in real time? That’s something most guests have never experienced before. It becomes a natural gathering spot, a conversation starter, and a beautiful way to keep guests engaged during cocktail hour and the reception.
2. YOU GET A PERMANENT KEEPSAKE
Photo booth prints are cute — but let’s be honest, most end up in drawers. With a live painting, you get a professionally hand-painted piece of art to hang in your home forever. It’s a real-time portrait of your day, created with care and intention.
3. IT’S NOT JUST ENTERTAINMENT — IT’S ART
A photo booth is entertainment. A live painting is entertainment and artwork. It reflects the energy, emotion, and story of your day in a way no filter ever could.
4. IT DOESN’T COST MORE — IT JUST GIVES MORE
Hiring a live wedding painter is often a similar investment to a premium photo booth. But the return? Way bigger. You’re not just getting a temporary service — you’re getting a forever piece of your story.
At Wet Paint Society, we’re based in Toronto, Ontario and available for Canada-wide travel. We’ve painted weddings in ballrooms, barns, backyards — and everything in between.
