Alex Harvie….possibly the most popular person at the wedding…

I met Alex Harvie at a bridal show and once I realized his talent, I immediately asked if he was free 5.5.12. Lucky for me, he was available and I booked him on the spot at the bridal show.

Not only was he great to work with, but I also found out he is married to a fabulous girl who went to the same high school as Ashley and I.

Fast forward to the wedding: he arrived in his painted up tux and stole the show. I received more complements on his work than anything else at the wedding. :)

He was so excited when he saw the bridesmaids were in green. He said it would make the photo even better…and he was right. 704

By the end of the night, this is what he created for us:919924779

He was such a hit. Guests would go speak with him and would watch as he “painted them into the scene”. They LOVED it.

He took the painting home after the wedding and let it dry. A few weeks later, Alex delivered the painting to my house. That is what I call amazing customer service.

Today, the painting resides at The Shack in a place of honor.

Thank you Alex! You rock!

Love and Hugs, Lizzie

  5. That painting is _still_ up in the place of honor over our mantle. We get to see it every single day! Thanks again for being part of our big celebration -- it also makes us happy to see your paintings at our friends' houses and at places around the city like the Irish House. You rock as well -- and it was really cool to hear from you :)
