Hatty Pedder Live Event Artist

Illustrating Unforgettable Moments, Live

Hello, I’m Hatty — a London-based artist and illustrator trained at Central Saint Martins College of Art and Design. I specialise in live event arti, offering bespoke artwork created in real time, right at your wedding or special event. From elegant live paintings to charming guest portraits and custom stationery, every piece I create is designed to tell your story beautifully and memorably.

Live Wedding Paintings

My A1 live wedding paintings are created throughout your special day using a reportage-style approach — capturing the essence of your wedding as it unfolds.

Guests can watch the artwork come to life during the event, making it both a visual centrepiece and a talking point. I focus the composition around the couple, surrounded by loved ones, bridal party members, floral details, the cake, and unique elements of your venue setup.

The final piece is completed by the end of the event and presented as a lasting keepsake — a truly personal work of art that encapsulates the magic of your day.

Live Guest Portraits

Add a touch of creativity and charm with live guest portraits — each one a quick, expressive sketch created in 5–10 minutes. I work with pen and ink, or occasionally with wine or coffee for an artistic twist.

These A4\ A5 portraits not only entertain your guests but also give them a one-of-a-kind memento to take home — something that’s both interactive and heartfelt.

Custom Wedding Stationery

Your illustrated wedding story begins with beautifully idesigned stationery — from save-the-dates and invitations to day-of elements like menus and signage. I work closely with each couple, going on a creative journey together to develop a cohesive, personalised visual identity that carries through your celebration. Portraits of the couple can be included in the invitaitaions.

Tailored Wedding Art Packages

No two weddings are alike — that’s why all of my services are thoughtfully tailored to suit your event’s unique energy, style, and story. Whether you're planning an intimate gathering or a large celebration, we’ll collaborate to create something memorable, meaningful, and full of character.
