Meet the Team
The Artist and Founder of Kuenzli Wedding Art
Hello, I’m Stephanie Künzli, a Swiss fine artist and luxury live wedding painter based in Basel, Switzerland.
For over 15 years,
I have dedicated my life to capturing human connection through art. Trained in Fine Arts in Basel, Munich, and Madrid, I developed a deep appreciation for classical oil painting, portraiture, and the subtle emotions that make every love story unique.
Today I bring this artistic expertise to weddings across Switzerland and Europe, transforming unforgettable moments into heirloom-quality paintings. As a live wedding painter, I create your artwork on-site during your celebration, allowing guests to witness the painting come to life while preserving the atmosphere, beauty, and emotion of your day.
More than simply recreating a photograph, I capture the feeling behind the moment, the anticipation before a first dance, the quiet glance shared between newlyweds, the golden evening light over a mountain landscape, or the joy surrounding your closest family and friends.

I began with oil painting
In action with the client
My painting style is
refined, romantic, and deeply atmospheric.
Working discreetly throughout your wedding, I observe the details that often pass unnoticed: the movement of a dress, the changing light, the elegance of your venue, and the emotions that make your celebration truly yours. Each artwork is carefully composed and hand-painted in oil, resulting in a one-of-a-kind masterpiece that reflects your personal story.
Based in Basel, I am available for luxury weddings, destination weddings, and intimate celebrations throughout Switzerland, Europe, and worldwide. Whether you are exchanging vows in the Swiss Alps, on the shores of Lake Lucerne, at a historic château in France, along the Amalfi Coast, or in an exclusive private estate, I would be honoured to transform your memories into art.

I believe
that while flowers fade and the music eventually ends, a painting remains. It becomes part of your home, your family history, and your legacy, allowing you to revisit one of the most meaningful days of your life again and again.
Let your wedding live beyond the day itself. Together, we will create a timeless work of art that tells your love story for generations to come.
