Emily Paints Events is the professional name used by Emily Bransfield, a live wedding painter in Kitchener, Ontario. Her current official website confirms that she paints at weddings and also presents options for commissioned artwork and live guest portraits.

For couples considering artwork as part of the wedding-day experience, the useful starting point is the format: a live painting is created at the event, while a commission is a non-live alternative. The official site publishes base canvas pricing, says travel is quoted individually, and asks couples to confirm availability after submitting an inquiry.

Current business profile

Last reviewed: August 12, 2026. Emily Paints Events is active on its official domain, which identifies Emily Bransfield and places the business in Kitchener, Ontario, Canada. The homepage also describes her as a live wedding painter in Ontario, satisfying both the brand match and wedding-service context required for this profile.

The site does not publish a full postal business address or telephone number. Accordingly, this profile does not reproduce the legacy postal code or phone number. Couples should use the official inquiry route to request the current contact and event-planning details they need.

Services and specialization

The documented core service is live wedding painting. Emily Paints Events presents paintings created at weddings and describes Emily’s work as portrait-focused, lifelike and realistic. The official site also states that she has painted at more than 300 weddings; this is a business-published experience statement, not an independent rating or endorsement.

Live guest portraits are also identified on the official mobile page. For couples who do not need an artist working live at the wedding, the homepage describes commissions made from a supplied photo as another option. That distinction matters when comparing proposals: a commission is not represented as the same service as on-site wedding painting.

The current homepage lists standard canvas sizes of 16 by 20 inches, 22 by 26 inches, 28 by 34 inches and 32 by 32 inches, while noting that other sizes can be quoted. The website does not publish a full inclusions list for every size, so couples should ask what is included in the quote for their selected scene and format.

Service area and who it may suit

The business identifies itself as based in Kitchener, Ontario, and markets live wedding painting in Ontario. This makes the profile most relevant to couples planning in Kitchener-Waterloo or elsewhere in Ontario who want to ask a travelling artist about their venue and date.

The website does not publish a fixed travel radius, a list of included cities or a travel-fee schedule. Travel costs are quoted individually. Couples outside Kitchener should therefore treat Ontario availability as an inquiry point rather than an automatic confirmation that their venue is included.

This service may suit couples who want a painted interpretation of a wedding moment and who are comfortable choosing a scene, canvas size and composition in advance. It may be less straightforward for anyone expecting a large family group in the main painting: the homepage says the usual focus is the newlyweds, with a pet or two possible if the composition works.

Confirmed strengths and practical limitations

A documented strength is the clear service specialization: the official site consistently identifies Emily Bransfield, Emily Paints Events and live wedding painting in Ontario. Her about page further describes a portrait-oriented approach, which gives couples a concrete starting point when reviewing the gallery and discussing the intended scene.

Another practical strength is the presence of published starting structure rather than a completely opaque quote process. The homepage names standard canvas sizes, associated base prices, individual travel quoting and a payment schedule. It also says availability is confirmed by email after an inquiry, making the next step explicit.

There are important limits to the published information. The site does not provide a full street address, a phone number, a fixed service radius, package-level inclusions or a comprehensive timeline for every format. It also does not promise that every requested person can be incorporated into a painting. These are planning questions to settle before signing documents.

Pricing

Current base prices are explicitly published on the official homepage, before HST: 16 by 20 inches is listed at $2,800; 22 by 26 inches at $3,300; and either 28 by 34 inches or 32 by 32 inches at $3,800. The site says other sizes can be quoted and that travel costs are quoted individually.

For non-live commissions, the homepage says paintings made from a photo are priced 20% less than the listed live-painting prices. This is a published directional comparison, not a complete commission price list, so a couple should obtain a written quote for the desired size and image.

The payment timing published on the site is 20% when documents are signed and 80% one week before the wedding. HST, travel and any requested changes to size or scope should be confirmed in writing with the quote.

Contact and booking

The official website directs couples to submit information and arrange a phone call as part of the booking process. It says that date availability is confirmed by email only after the form is submitted. The published contact email is hello@emilypaintsevents.com.

The homepage displays date-specific availability notices, but availability can change. Do not rely on an older notice or a directory listing; ask Emily Paints Events to confirm the wedding date, venue, travel charge, selected canvas size and final scope directly.

Because the official site does not publish a phone number, the most reliable documented starting point is the inquiry form or the published email address. Avoid treating the legacy phone record as verified contact information.

What couples should confirm

Before booking, confirm whether the preferred date is open, whether the venue is within the artist’s workable travel plan, and the total amount including HST and travel. Ask for the specific canvas size, scene, composition and whether the service is live wedding painting, live guest portraits or a non-live commission.

Discuss who may appear in the painting and how any pets or other requested details will be handled. The homepage says the usual composition centres on the newlyweds and may include a pet or two when workable, so larger family requests should not be assumed.

Finally, ask what will happen on the event day and after it: setup requirements, the anticipated painting progress during the event, any off-site finishing work, delivery or pickup, and the terms in the booking documents. These details are not fully published on the current site.
