“The best wedding favour they’d ever received”

I literally cannot recommend Olivia enough! When planning our wedding a live sketcher was one of my non negotiable and it was worth its weight in gold! So many guests commented on how amazing it was to receive their paintings as their wedding favour and it’s been such a talking point since the wedding too! Olivia is soooo quick and before we knew it there was so many portraits hanging up, and it’s so fun to look at and point peoples out.

Amazing favours!

Olivia was amazing, we got so many wonderful favours for our guests and we've loved seeing them framed in everyone's houses. They're so pretty and everyone loved meeting Olivia.

A must have for a Wedding! The best addition to ours!

After seeing lots online about illustrators or live artists at Weddings, I knew we needed one!
And I can honestly say, we are SO SO glad we chose & booked Olivia! From initial enquiry to post-wedding, Olivia was so super friendly & professional! Not to mention the amazing portraits of all our guests! We had SO many comments on how amazing the idea was & the keepsakes everyone could take home were honestly AMAZING ❤️

Absolutely brilliant!

We found Olivia when searching for alternatives to wedding favours and loved the idea.
Olivia has been brilliant to work with from the date we booked right up to the wedding day, even sketching pictures of our dogs for our table plan which really tied in the theme and looked amazing!
It really was something different, and it gave everyone something fun to talk about and take home with them from the day. All our guests loved the pictures, which was evident by us not finding one left behind the day before!
Olivia and her team were so lovely to work with, and the pictures us and our guests have to keep are a perfect lasting memory from the day.
We would recommend Olivia to any couples who are looking for an artist on their wedding day, it certainly added something special to ours.
