EVENT FASHION ILLUSTRATION

Luxury Live Illustrations for Weddings & Events

Multi Award-Winning • Hitched Recommended Supplier • 4+ Years’ Experience

I’m Chan, a multi award-winning Event Fashion Illustrator, creating beautiful, full-colour fashion illustrations for weddings, celebrations and luxury events.

I travel across the UK and internationally, depending on availability, dates and travel/accommodation requirements.

From weddings and gala dinners to award ceremonies and high-end events, my illustrations become one of the most talked-about and memorable parts of the day giving your guests a truly personal keepsake they can treasure long after the event.

YOUR GUESTS, TURNED INTO ART

I hand-draw your guests in my signature fashion illustration style, capturing their individual looks, outfits and personalities.

With my background in fashion design, I’ve always loved drawing the human figure and showcasing beautiful clothing. I combine this passion with live illustration to create something that feels personal, fashionable and luxurious.

It isn't simply a drawing , it’s a unique piece of artwork created especially for each guest.

And unlike many traditional wedding favours, it’s something people genuinely want to take home, frame and keep.

A UNIQUE EXPERIENCE FOR YOUR GUESTS

Watching their illustration come to life is part of the experience.

I love chatting with guests, getting to know them and explaining what I’m creating. It creates entertainment, conversation and excitement throughout the event.

I use the best Copic Sketch fashion illustration pens, creating vibrant, full colour artwork with a beautiful, streak-free finish.

Your guests receive their illustration in a protective waterproof sleeve, ready to take home and treasure.

I also love displaying the finished illustrations throughout my time with you, allowing guests to admire one another's portraits and enjoy the fun of discovering who is who!

NO ONE HAS TO STAND AROUND POSING

I discreetly photographs your guests throughout the event, meaning I can draw from the photographs while your guests continue enjoying themselves, mingling and celebrating.

It adds another luxury element to the experience — your guests don't have to queue or stand still for a portrait.

I never want the experience to feel rushed. I love taking time to chat with your guests and make the illustration experience feel personal.

You can choose a VIP Guest List, allowing me to concentrate on your closest family, wedding party, VIP guests or the people you most want to receive a keepsake.

MORE THAN A FAVOUR

I've seen guests become genuinely touched when they realise their illustration isn't simply entertainment for the day, it's theirs to keep.

I've had guests tell me they're going straight home to frame their artwork, while others have collected all of the illustrations from an event and turned them into a book.

The possibilities are endless.

It's entertainment.

It's conversation.

It's fashion.

It's art.

And most importantly, it's a personal memory of your day that your guests can take home with them.

The Best Decision for Our Wedding!

Chantel and her sister were absolutely amazing! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Chantel is incredibly talented, and all of our guests were so impressed by her beautiful illustrations. It was such a lovely surprise seeing everyone receive their own personalised little keepsake from our wedding. 🥰 They absolutely loved it! 😍❤️

They were also so kind and thoughtful throughout the day. One of our guests even mentioned how lovely they were with their eldest daughter, who became a little overwhelmed during the wedding breakfast. They kindly helped look after her, which meant her parents were able to relax and enjoy the speeches. Such a thoughtful gesture!

Honestly, having a live illustrator was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. It added such a unique and personal touch to the day, and all our guests loved it!

Thank you so much, Chantel and your sister, for being part of our special day and making it even more memorable. We would absolutely recommend you both! ❤️🫶🏼💯💯

The Eames Wedding - Drawn to Perfection

Chantel was the perfect addition to our wedding day! Our guests absolutely loved having her illustrations created, and we received so many comments about what an amazing and unique touch it was. It made the experience feel incredibly personal and gave everyone such a special keepsake to take home.

Both Chantel and her sister were so warm, friendly and professional, and fitted into our day seamlessly. Chantel is incredibly talented, and we couldn’t have been happier with the beautiful illustrations she created. It was one of those special details that made the Eames wedding even more memorable, and we would recommend her without hesitation!

The perfect wedding favours for a memorable day

Honestly we are so glad we had Chan at our wedding. Our illustration and pictures were just perfect for the day. When our guest arrived for our reception, they were greeted by Chan and her sister who welcomed guests and chatted with them. They took pictures and got to work straight away. They displayed all the work and waited for Arjun and I to see our illustrations or us and our guests. We were blown away and amazed with how they looked and made everyone feel.

We cannot thank Chan enough for the hard work and extras she did for us during and after our wedding. She and her sister truly made our day that little bit extra special!

If you want to wow your guests with a keepsake they will love, make sure you hire these lovely and wonderful people!

A Million Times YES!! Book Illustration by Chan!!

Illustration by Chan was the perfect addition to our wedding. The guests LOVED their portraits and, even a month after our wedding, they still talk about them and how cute they are. Our bridal portrait is soooo cute and my husband (ahh pinch me!) and I always say awww when we see it. Its the sweetest little memory and I am so happy we had Chan to capture our guests. Chan was also so sweet and made sure she was able to capture the kids and portraits that were important to us. Could not be more impressed and happy with Chan!

Just amazing! 🤩

I literally don’t even know where to start!
I knew from the moment we began wedding planning that I wanted a live illustrator, and when we began looking around, Chan stood out to us by a mile! We absolutely love her style and knew it would go down well with our guests!
And it did just that! Chan was the talk of the day! And our guests were over the moon with their illustrations! People are still talking about her now a few weeks on!
Chan was kind enough to do a little drawing for us of our two kitties who we sadly lost during our planning process, which was such a special touch that we appreciate so much!
Chan and her sister Alana are also the loveliest people! We love our illustrations and they are displayed in prime position in our home! 🥰
Thanks Chan and Alana! ☺️

A Truly Special Addition to Our Wedding Day

It’s difficult to put into words just how incredible it was to have Chan and Alana as part of our wedding day. From the moment they arrived, they were both so warm, kind, and friendly, making everyone feel completely at ease.

Chan is unbelievably talented and created the most beautiful illustrations for our guests, giving each person a unique and meaningful keepsake to take home. It was such a special touch, and our guests absolutely loved it. In addition to the guest illustrations, Chan also created a stunning portrait of our venue for us to use as our guest book, which is something we will treasure forever.

Not only was the artwork exceptional, but Chan and Alana brought such a lovely energy to the day and were a joy to have around. We received so many compliments from our guests about them and their work.

I cannot recommend Chan highly enough. If you’re considering booking her for your wedding or event, do it—you absolutely will not regret it! It was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding day. ❤️✨

The best live illustrator!

As soon as we booked our wedding venue, Chan was the very first supplier I booked and I’m so glad we did! Having a live illustrator was honestly one of the biggest highlights of our wedding. Chan is incredibly talented — I could recognise every single guest just from their illustration! It’s also so special seeing the drawings hung up in our friends’ homes when we visit them now.

A few of our closest friends and relatives couldn’t make it to the wedding and Chan was so accommodating in helping to sketch them so it still felt like they were part of our big day.

Chan and her sister were both so friendly and lovely throughout the day and our guests absolutely loved the experience. I would recommend Chan to anyone considering a live illustrator for their wedding — it added such a unique and memorable touch to the day.

Wedding illustration

Chan was absolutely brilliant throughout the process, she responds to emails super quickly and is so happy to answer any questions throughout. She was wonderful on the day, Chan and her sister were such a bubbly, smiley presence on the day it was so so lovely to have them there. The illustrations themselves are absolutely spectacular, we gave them to the guests as wedding favours and every one of our guests have said they are the best favours they’ve had! There were so many compliments on the illustrations and how brilliant they were throughout the day and since. We have had multiple friends ask for Chan’s details to book her themselves for their weddings. Absolutely no doubt one of the best decisions we made for our day, not only are the illustrations wonderful I cannot speak highly enough about how lovely and friendly both Chan and her sister are and the energy they bring to your day.

Highly recommend!

We used Illustrations by Chan for our wedding favours and couldn’t have been happier. The illustrations were beautiful, personal and such a lovely touch for our guests — we had so many compliments on the day. Chan was incredibly professional and responsive throughout, and the aftercare was outstanding. When we sadly lost one of the illustrations, Chan kindly redid it for us without any fuss. Truly wonderful service from start to finish! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

A wonderful duo and beautiful keepsake

From the beginning Chan was so friendly, kind and passionate about her work and how it would fit in our day. Communication was always easy and responses were fast, we always felt we could ask any questions and we'd be taken care of.

On the big day Chan and her sister were such an incredible duo. One of the first things out of any guests was about how incredible they are. How unique and fun the whole thing was, and then once they recieved their illustration they were so excited to have them forever. Then we recieved our own portrait and it was gorgeous! So many have been framed and put up on the walls already, and we are sure it was one of the best things we booked. Thank you so much for your hard work girls, you are brilliant! xx

Absolutely fantastic!

Illustration by Chan was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. Firstly the communication prior to the wedding from booking to the day before was quick and responsive. Then on the day Chan was amazing - the guests loved the illustration, it was a talk of the day and they loved taking the illustrations home. The illustrations themselves were fantastic and we adore the one of the two of us! If you want something luxury, unique and special - I would highly recommend Illustrations by Chan!

The best live illustrations!

I honestly can’t recommend Illustration by Chan enough! Having Chan at our wedding doing live illustrations was one of the best decisions we made, it added such a unique and personal touch to the day. I’ve always wanted our wedding favours to be something meaningful and memorable, something our guests would actually want to keep, and that’s exactly what Chan delivered. Our guests received their own beautiful hand-drawn portrait, created right there on the day, and it was such a joy to watch everyone’s reactions as they saw themselves brought to life on paper.

Our framed illustration looks so lovely in our house, it’s such a special reminder of the day. Several of our friends and family have also sent us photos of their illustrations proudly displayed in their homes, which just shows how much they loved them too!

Beyond being incredibly talented, the whole Illustration by Chan team were an absolute delight to work with from start to finish. Communication was great - super responsive, friendly, and accommodating throughout the planning process. On the wedding day itself, they were so warm and engaging with all of our guests, creating such a fun and relaxed atmosphere around their setup. Everyone was so impressed by both the artistry and the experience.

If you’re looking for a wedding favour or entertainment idea that’s personal, creative, and genuinely memorable, I couldn’t recommend Illustration by Chan more highly. They truly went above and beyond, and we’ll cherish our illustration forever!

An absolute must for your wedding!

We are so so glad we chose Illustration by Chan for our wedding. Chantel and Alana were super friendly on our wedding day! They got on so well with all of our guests and were so much fun to have there.
The illustrations were insane!! You could tell exactly who the guests were on every illustration - they were all so alike, what a talent. We gave our guests their illustrations as a gift favour and loads of our guests commented on how lovely a favour it was. It was a great talking point with our guests on the day too.
Communication before and after the wedding was speedy, and Chantel even drew us an unexpected illustration of our dog Luna who was there on the day. Such a lovely surprise, we'll treasure our illustrations forever. Thank you Chantel and Alana x
