    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.

    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.

    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.

    5.0Olivia

    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.
