Live Guest Portraits at Monti Singapore: A Wedding Celebration by the Marina Bay

There’s something especially magical about weddings by the Marina Bay waterfront and a daytime celebration at Monti Singapore captured that beautifully.

Set against the breathtaking Marina Bay waterfront, the couple brought together elegant city views, meaningful moments and their loved ones altogether. We were invited to be part of the celebration through our live guest portrait experience, creating personalised keepsakes for guests throughout the evening.

A Romantic Wedding Venue in Singapore

Located by the waterfront with panoramic views of Marina Bay Sands and the Singapore skyline, Monti Singapore is one of the most iconic wedding venues for couples looking for a modern yet romantic atmosphere for both daytime and evening celebrations.

From the natural daylight streaming through the venue to the stunning architecture surrounding the waterfront, every corner felt bright, elegant, and effortlessly picturesque. As guests arrived and the celebration began, our live portrait station quickly became a cosy little gathering spot where friends and family could watch their portraits come to life.

Live Guest Portraits as Wedding Favours

Instead of traditional wedding favours, the couple chose live guest portraits where personalised artworks are painted on-site during the wedding reception and throughout their celebration.

Each portrait is hand-painted live and customised for every guest, making it both an interactive wedding experience and a meaningful keepsake to bring home.

Throughout the evening, guests stopped by to:

• Watch the portrait process live

• Take photos with their artwork

• Collect personalised illustrations with the couple’s wedding design

• Enjoy a unique entertainment experience during the reception

One of our favourite moments is always seeing guests react when they receive their portraits for the first time. Some immediately frame them at home, while others keep them as a memory from the celebration.

Our live art station is placed near the entrance of the restaurant, creating a space for guest to roam and interact. 
Besides our station, there's other activities going on like magnet making and a dessert station! 

Why Couples Love Live Wedding Portraits

Live guest portraits have become increasingly popular for weddings in Singapore because they combine:

• Wedding entertainment

• Personalised wedding favours

• Interactive guest experiences

• Meaningful keepsakes guests actually keep

Unlike standard door gifts, each artwork is created for the guest, making every piece one-of-a-kind.

For weddings at venues like Monti Singapore, the portraits also pair beautifully with the elegant city backdrop and sophisticated reception atmosphere.

A Keepsake Inspired by Singapore Weddings

Many of our couples love incorporating iconic Singapore elements into their wedding stationery and portrait designs, from skyline illustrations to floral themes inspired by the venue.
