We could not have imagined a more meaningful way to capture our wedding day. Lola's illustrations are not just artwork — they are memories brought to life. The live guest illustrations added a magical, interactive element that our friends and family adored, and the bespoke couple portrait and venue illustration are simply exquisite. Each piece reflects the emotion, romance, and beauty of the day, and we feel so lucky to have these timeless keepsakes. Truly a luxury experience from start to finish.

Lola's Showcase
The Experience
Description
Live guest illustration is a beautifully elevated way to delight your guests: a styled illustration station becomes part of the day, and each guest leaves with a hand-painted artwork they’ll genuinely treasure.
Every piece I make is created with intention and an uncompromising attention to detail, designed to feel elegant, personal, and timeless.
The experience
1) Enquiry
Reach out with your date and the package you’re interested in. Each enquiry is reviewed carefully to confirm availability and ensure I'm the best fit.
2) Vision & planning (guided, collaborative)
Once availability is confirmed, we’ll talk through your vision together; the look you love, the guest experience you want, and how the illustration station will sit naturally within your wedding timeline so everything feels exactly as you imagined.
3) Confirmation
You’ll receive clear guidance on next steps and what’s needed ahead of the day, keeping everything calm, considered, and easy.
4) Live illustration at your wedding
Guests are illustrated throughout your celebration, with artworks created in the signature style and presented as keepsakes.
5) Delivery-ready keepsakes
Each guest artwork is packaged in a protective sleeve, ready to be taken home and kept.

Reviews
5.0 (3)Working with Lola was an absolute dream. She transformed our wedding into a living story through her hand-drawn illustrations. The live sketches of our guests were delightful and so sophisticated, and the couple portrait she created for us is breathtaking — the level of detail, the emotion, the elegance is unmatched. Every floral and venue element was perfectly captured, and we now have an heirloom-quality keepsake that tells the story of our day for years to come.
Lola’s illustrations completely brought our wedding to life. From the moment she arrived, the live guest illustrations added such a personal, elegant touch to our day. Each sketch captured not just faces, but the laughter, the joy, and the little moments we will never forget. Our bespoke couple portrait and the venue illustration are now beautifully framed in our home — timeless pieces that we will treasure forever. Her attention to detail and artistry truly exceeded our expectations.

Who am I actually booking?
You're booking your artist directly. TheWeddingPainters connects you with independent artists, and once you confirm your booking, your contract sits directly with the artist you've chosen. We handle the booking process and payment on their behalf, so everything stays effortless and in one place from enquiry to wedding day.
Why should I pay through TheWeddingPainters instead of paying my artist directly?
Paying through TheWeddingPainters keeps your deposit and payments secure, your agreement recorded in one place, and our team on hand to step in if anything about the booking needs sorting out.
If you pay your artist privately, by bank transfer or PayPal, outside our system, we lose visibility of that payment and our ability to help. That matters most in the moment you'd need us: if there's a dispute, or your artist doesn't turn up on the day.
Keeping everything on-platform is what lets us actually protect your wedding day, not just process it.
What should I do if my artist asks me to pay them directly (bank transfer, PayPal, etc.)?
TheWeddingPainters is a booking platform – we help you and your artist keep the booking and payments clearly recorded. If payments happen privately, they won't appear in our system and it may limit how much we can assist if anything needs to be checked later.
If you ever feel unsure or pressured, please contact us and we'll take a look.
Will I lose any protection if I pay outside TheWeddingPainters?
If you pay your artist directly (for example by separate bank transfer, PayPal or cash), those payments won't show in your TheWeddingPainters booking record.
That means:
- We can't see what was paid, when, or on what terms
- It can be harder for us to help if there's a disagreement about what was included, what's still owed, or whether a refund is due
For that reason, we strongly recommend keeping all payments for your booking within TheWeddingPainters, where we process payments on your artist's behalf and keep a clear record for both of you.
