LIVE WEDDING ILLUSTRATION
I'll draw your guests live on the day, creating personalised, hand-drawn portraits they’ll love, share, and talk about long after the celebration ends
EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW…
How does it work?
When your guests arrive, I’ll be there to greet them and take a quick photo of each person, couple or family — don’t worry, it’s super relaxed and casual! This lets me capture everyone without needing them to sit still or queue up.
Then, while the party’s in full swing, I work behind the scenes from those photos to create hand-drawn, custom illustrations of your guests. Each portrait takes just a few minutes, and I work quickly to make sure as many guests as possible are drawn during the event.
By the end of the night, guests can collect their personalised illustration — a unique and meaningful keepsake they’ll actually want to take home. It’s both entertainment and a lasting memory, all wrapped into one beautiful favour.
How much do you charge?
My pricing is super affordable — especially compared to most wedding entertainment or favours! The cost depends on a few things like your location, guest count, and wedding date.
Because every wedding is unique, I offer custom quotes tailored to your day. Just send me a message with your date, venue, and how many guests you’re expecting — and I’ll get back to you with a price.
Most couples are genuinely surprised at how budget-friendly it is — especially for something so personal and memorable!
How long are you at the wedding for?
I typically stay for up to 8 hours, which covers a full wedding day — from the drinks reception through to the evening celebrations.
That said, I can absolutely tailor the timing to suit your day and guest list. Whether you need me just for a few hours during the reception or for the whole celebration, I’ll work with you to create a plan that fits perfectly.
What areas do you cover?
I can work anywhere! I’m based in the North East of England, but I also have bases in both London and Norfolk — so I’m super flexible and can easily travel across the UK.
I’m also really keen to take on abroad weddings, so if you're planning a destination celebration, I’d love to hear from you!
All I ask is that reasonable travel and accommodation expenses are covered, which we’ll chat through during the initial booking process — no surprises, just clear and simple.
Wherever you’re getting married, I’d love to be part of your day.
Do you only do weddings?
Nope — not at all! While weddings are my most popular events, I also illustrate at birthdays, hen dos, engagement parties, baby showers… basically any celebration you want to make extra special.
I’m also really excited to work with brands, hotels, and venues looking to offer something unique and memorable for their guests or clients. Live illustration adds a creative, luxury touch that people love — and it’s something totally different from the usual event entertainment.
What medium do you use?
I use watercolour paint, which dries quickly — so your guests can take their portraits home the same day, no smudging or waiting around!
All illustrations are done on high-quality A6 paper, and each one is neatly packed in a cellophane sleeve for easy, safe transport.
Want to add a personal touch? I can work with you to create custom stickers, branded paper, or bespoke details that match your wedding theme or event branding — it’s all about making it feel uniquely yours.
