We met Sarah from Tea Bear Illustrations at a wedding show in Manchester and instantly loved her personality and her work. Having live illustrations as favours wasn’t something I’d originally considered, but as soon as I saw what she did, it felt like such a brilliant and unique idea. She was friendly, warm, and had such a lovely aura about her that choosing her was an easy decision.

Her communication throughout was great, and her pricing was very reasonable for something so personal and memorable. On the day, she showed me some of the illustrations she’d already done and they were amazing. Our guests were absolutely made up with their little takeaway favours — we had so many compliments and lovely comments about them.

Sarah also went above and beyond after the wedding. One of my cousins didn’t pick up her illustration and it couldn’t be found, so I emailed Sarah and she immediately offered to create another one. She’s even sending it along with our own portrait in the post, which I can’t wait to see.

If you’re looking for something a bit different that your guests will genuinely treasure, I highly recommend Tea Bear Illustrations. Sarah is talented, professional, and an absolute joy to work with.

We had the pleasure of having Sarah at our wedding, and I genuinely cannot recommend her highly enough. From start to finish, every aspect of her service was exceptional and deserving of 5 stars.

One of the things we wanted most for our wedding was something unique and memorable for our guests, and she exceeded every expectation we had. Watching her work throughout the day was amazing, she was professional, friendly, and blended seamlessly into the celebrations. Our guests were fascinated by the process and loved seeing their illustrations come to life.

The artwork itself was absolutely stunning. The illustrations captured not only people’s outfits and likenesses but also their personalities and the special moments they were sharing. The style is so elegant, timeless, and beautifully detailed. Every single piece felt personal and special, and our guests were genuinely thrilled to receive them.

The illustration she created of us as a couple is something we will treasure forever. It perfectly captured the essence of our wedding day and is such a unique keepsake that means so much more than a traditional photograph. Looking at it instantly takes us back to those special moments.

Our guests have not stopped talking about the illustrations since the wedding. Many told us it was one of the most unique and thoughtful wedding ideas they had ever seen. It added such a lovely interactive element to the day and gave everyone a beautiful keepsake to take home.

Communication throughout the booking process was fantastic, and everything was organised, professional, and stress-free. On the day itself, she was punctual, approachable, and incredibly talented. You could tell how much care and passion goes into every illustration she creates.

If you’re considering booking a live illustrator for your wedding or event, do it, you will not regret it. It was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding, and the artwork we received is something we will cherish for years to come.

Thank you for helping make our wedding day even more special and for creating such beautiful memories that will last a lifetime. We would recommend you to absolutely anyone without hesitation! ❤️✨
