Harriet’s Wedding Illustrations
Hi, I’m Harriet and I am a Live Wedding illustrator based in Gloucestershire, the Cotswolds
Welcome to the magical world of live wedding illustration!
Live illustration is a fun and exciting way to not only add entertainment to your wedding, but to also give your guests a bespoke illustration of themselves alongside a Polaroid picture to take home to remember your special day.
Capturing the essence of your special day with every stroke of the brush, your wedding moments are transformed into art that can be cherished forever. These illustrations can be personalised with your names and wedding date which your guests will love!

FAQs
How long do you take to paint a couple?
- I paint one illustration in approximately 15 minutes depending on the complexity of clothes
Do guests have to stand to be painted?
- Polaroid pictures are taken of the guests at the beginning of the event, these will then be painted using pen and watercolour during the day and ready to be collected later
Do the guests get to keep the paintings?
- Yes!! Of course, the A6 illustrations and Polaroid picture are packaged and sent home with the guests
Are you available all days of the week?
- Unfortunately I am only available for long weekends (Friday, Saturday and Sunday). However I do offer a name card package, allowing your guests to still get a personalised illustration
