RAVE REVIEWS

 

It’s PERFECT!!!

We cannot thank you enough!!!! Thank you thank you thank you!!!!!! We LOVE it so much! We’re so excited to share this with everyone! We also had questions about you from some other brides that were guests at the wedding and I’ve never been happier to make a referral.

I cannot rave about Jacob enough (and neither can my family/friends) - he is not only an insanely talented painter but also a super kind and thoughtful person. I gave a bunch of detailed requests for how I wanted my family painted in and the painting turned out even more beautifully than I could have imagined. He even drove and hand delivered it 5 days after the wedding - we were floored and I can't wait to hang it in my home. Do not hesitate in booking Jacob - I can't tell you how much I love the painting and how much the guests enjoyed watching him work! We are truly so happy!

Jacob's skill as a painter is evident in his art. He is truly a one of a kind talent. You can see his art online (although in person, it is even better)! But what you may not know, and may need to know, is that he is an absolutely great person to have at your wedding as a live wedding painter. He is calm, pleasant, fun, and appropriate in all settings. He was an absolute pleasure to have at our wedding and all, yes all, of our guests absolutely loved watching him work and interacting with him. He began painting during our ceremony and finished at our reception. After the wedding, he drove a three hour round trip to personally deliver the painting to us. If you are thinking of hiring a live wedding painter for your wedding, do it. It was very worth it. And if you do, go with Jacob Event Painting. Trust me, you will only be disappointed if you go with someone else.

So back when I first started planning our wedding my mom mentioned this new "experience" taking place at weddings- Live Painters. I had never heard nor seen this, but googled it and hey that looks pretty cool. Fast forward, I had kind of forgotten about the "live painter," but my mom had been doing all the research to make it a surprise wedding gift....and man am I glad she did! Seriously, what neat keepsake to have from our wedding day! From what my mom told me, a lot of live painters were only going to show up for about an hour of the reception and finish their painting at home. Jacob stayed for majority of the time which allowed guests to see the progress of the painting and it was an absolute HIT! People were obsessed and after the wedding, that's probably the most pictures I received from friends, just the progress of the painting- they thought it was SO DANG COOL. I even talked to some friends who said they were watching Jacob and would make recommendations to make the painting look just a little more like either myself or my groom- and he'd take their recs right on the spot. He more or less finished painting the two of us while at the reception and then added in our parents and grandparents later! (He'll add in whoever you want up to 12 specific people) It was so fun to open the package when we got back from our honeymoon! Seriously, I love the painting, it's going to get hung above our bed and I already made copies for our thank you notes which I think everyone will love to get to see the final product! 10/10 would recommend Jacob, not just for the final painting but for the over all experience!

A Dream Addition to a Perfect Day

Jacob was a total dream to work with! Our painting turned out more beautiful than I could have imagined and he took the time to get to know our families to add the small details that would have otherwise go unnoticed. We had so many compliments of what an elegant touch his painting added to our ceremony. Finally, his warm personality makes him so easy to work with and makes your special day that much more memorable. Thank you, Jacob!

Incredible!

Jacob is an incredibly talented artist! He came to our wedding, painted two photos of the ceremony & the reception & he was sure to include our wedding party & immediate families. (made it so special) His set up was so classy & neat looking! I cannot even express the amount of positive feedback we got from “how amazing was their love painter” to “wow we have never seen this at a wedding before!” Comments. Jacob is very professional and kind! Can’t thank you enough Jacob, these pieces you made for us are SO special and they are being hung in our house to forever cherish the memory! Highly recommended Jacob!

- Lindsey (bride)

Jacob is a great addition to a wedding or corporate event. His art is beautiful and comes highly recommended by the Highland Manor and Historic Dubsdread! It's unique and a great memory to bring home as a reminder of your very special day.

-Shanna (venue coordinator & event planner)

Jocob is a very talented painter. My daughter has been married three years now. It is the painted picture that will be the family air loom not the photographs. The guests were is awe of watching the painting process. It became part of what made Tina's wedding different and special.

- Toni (mother of the bride)

Jacob was absolutely great to work with. He was very kind and helpful when initially inquiring about the painting and throughout the wedding itself. We are very happy we chose him to be a part of our day and we now have a painting to treasure forever.

Perfect Live Painter For Any Event!

My family and I hired Jacob as a surprise for my brother and sister in law's wedding. Can I just say, that was the best decision we could have ever made. When I initially reached out to Jacob (and every conversation after that) he was always quick to respond. He quietly came in and snapped a few photos of my brother and his new wife while they did their first look. He worked it out with the photographer and she told my brother that Jacob was her "behind the scenes" assistant so they might see him snapping a few photos with his iPad. My brother and sister in law didnt even think twice about it. Jacob added such a nice touch to their wedding. I will be sure to continue recommending him to all of my clients. Do not think twice about it, hire him and keep his painting for the rest of your life where you will get to look back on and think of how this brush strokes were done in the very moment you said you I do, had your first dance and maybe celebrated a special someones birthday.

Jacob is a super talented painter!! He did a live painting at my destination wedding in Miami, FL. He is very responsive, professional, and friendly. Working with him was so easy. The painting turned out AMAZING!!!!! We have it hanging in our house and it’s a wonderful memory and we have received multiple compliments. I highly recommend Jacob!!

- Emily (bride)

I would highly recommend Jacob to anyone considering a professional portrait of their special event. This was a last minute decision for our October 2016 wedding and this is BY FAR my favorite detail of our wedding. I now have my portrait displayed in our home and it is a wonderful reminder of our wedding. Jacob was extremely professional and answered any questions I had. He had to travel a great distance to our venue and the pricing was extremely reasonable. I cannot say enough about how wonderful this experience was. THANK YOU JACOB!

I requested Jacob's services for our wedding in the summer of 2016. Immediately we were impressed with his responsiveness and professional mannerism. Having a live event painter was always something we had wished of, yet it came to realization when we found Jacob. His laid back personality and budget conscious approach had us sold. On the day of the event, Jacob was one of the first on the scene setting up and working on preliminary landscaping. His presence was certainly a conversation starter for guests, while he worked through the ceremony. When he revealed his work to us after the ceremony, we were blown away. The painting was fantastic and of great quality. His capturing of our special moment at the alter will hang in our home for the rest of our lives. The experience we had with Jacob was truly a great one, and we highly recommend his services.

Jacob James Neagle did the most spectacular job on our live wedding painting. I love looking at it every single day and it still brings a smile to my face. It is a beautiful piece that we have hanging in our place. Also, this was a nice touch at a wedding where people could congregate and talk if they didn't want to dance. He is professional and easy to work with. I would recommend Jacob James Neagle to any bride.

- Kelsey (bride)

2 years later and I still feel hiring Jacob for our live painting was one of the best wedding investments we made. It is displayed in our dining room and makes for a great conversation piece. We of course have a couple wedding photos framed around the house but there is just something so special about having our painting on the wall.

Jacob was wonderful and easy to work with. I could try to explain how talented he is but it just cant be be put into words!

- Elyse (bride)

Having a live event artist was one of the highlights of our wedding. We were thrilled with the final painting. He perfectly captured our first dance. Jacob was extremely easy to work with throughout the entire process. The day of the wedding he showed up early and got to work. Throughout the entire reception guests loved coming up and taking photos with him and seeing the painting progress. He was a professional the entire time. I would highly recommend Jacob. He is extremely talented and such a nice person. Our family was so happy with the entire experience that my sister hired him to do her wedding too. She loved having him as well and he did a wonderful job with her painting as well. We ultimately decided to get a large canvas and was so happy with our decision. I love looking at the painting daily as a reminder to our special day. He is a true talent.
