Proposal for Live Painting Services
Hi Cece,

I am thrilled to be considered to paint portraits for your celebration in a couple weeks! With the Portrait Bar I’ve detailed below, most (or all?) of your guests will get to pose with me for their portrait.
I’m always happy to jump on a phone call to clarify any of the information or talk new ideas.

Julianne Sojourner - Floral Designer in South Carolina
Jamie Peterson and her team did a beautiful job at my daughter’s wedding this summer painting abstract portraits of our guests. Her portrait bar was attractive and approachable and created a little excitement for our friends and family. It was fun to watch them strike a quick pose and then receive a lovely keepsake of Ellis and Hank’s wedding.
Jamie was a dream to work with; professional, prompt and quick to respond to every question. As a floral designer and wedding stylist, I had admired her work for years and knew I would want to include her talents for my own daughter’s wedding reception.
