When it comes to unforgettable wedding entertainment, live wedding painters are on the rise and Layers of Love is truly in a league of its own. Founded by the talented David Clark and his partner Viv in June 2024, this Melbourne-based business has already brought joy, wonder, and a touch of artistry to over 30 weddings in its first year – and it’s not slowing down any time soon.
So, what exactly is live wedding painting? It’s exactly as dreamy as it sounds. David sets up his easel and paints a beautiful scene from your special day as it unfolds. Think first dance, ceremony kiss, or a romantic moment shared when no one else is watching – all captured on canvas in real time.
David’s favourite part of the wedding day? Watching the guests’ reactions. “Being very new in the wedding industry, when I start setting up – people are a little uncertain about my presence and what I do,” he explains. “As the night unfolds, I get some questions and peeks – but at the end of the night when my paintings almost look finished, the crowd goes wild. It brings me so much joy being able to create such a beautiful memento for my couples as well as entertain their guests throughout the night.”
It’s more than just art – it’s an experience. A talking point. A moment of live magic your guests won’t forget.
What sets Layers of Love apart isn’t just the talent behind the brush. David is never alone – he’s got a powerhouse by his side. Enter Vivienne, the business manager and unofficial hype girl. She’s there to create content, bring the energy, and help make the whole experience feel more like a performance than a painting session. “Your guests will leave remembering this duo for sure,” David says.
With 30 weddings under his belt, David’s advice to couples is simple but meaningful: “Make sure to spend those sweet moments together. Weddings can get really rowdy, with a schedule to follow and guests to entertain – you sometimes forget the whole reason you’re there. The love you two share, so spend those moments together celebrating your love!”
Whether you’re planning a wedding and looking for something unforgettable, or just love the idea of a unique keepsake created in real time – Layers of Love might just be your perfect fit.
