About

Eduard Illustrates is the live wedding illustration service created by artist Eduard Garcia, a one-person studio dedicated to creating meaningful, hand-drawn keepsakes for your guests.

On the day, Eduard sets up discreetly at your venue and spends the celebration illustrating your guests as they relax, chat and enjoy the atmosphere. Each person or couple is drawn live and receives their own personalised illustration to take home – a thoughtful and memorable alternative to traditional wedding favours.

Eduard is known for his warm, expressive illustration style and his calm, friendly approach. Guests feel comfortable sitting for a drawing or having a quick photo taken so they can return to enjoying the celebrations while their illustration is created. Couples frequently describe the service as 'effortless and uplifting', adding a gentle buzz and a natural talking point throughout the day.

To suit different weddings and timelines, Eduard offers three illustration options:

  • Live Guest Sketches – Full Body illustrations created on the day, capturing guests’ outfits and personality in a relaxed, contemporary style.
  • Face Portraits, a faster live option focused on expressive, hand-drawn head-and-shoulder illustrations.
  • Studio A2 Guest Sketch Group, a large, detailed group illustration created in the studio after the wedding, bringing together selected guests into one beautifully composed A2 artwork.

What makes every wedding special is the people. Every illustration is created individually and shaped by the personalities, outfits and connections in front of him. No templates, no repeats – just genuinely personal artwork made for each guest.

From the first sketch to the final detail, Eduard focuses on giving your guests something truly personal to keep long after the celebration ends – a beautifully illustrated reminder of your wedding day.

Eduard Illustrates is based in East London, and offers wedding entertainment services.
