Emma & Joe -Â Live Ceremony and Guest Painting
We honestly could not recommend Alexandra enough. From the moment we booked, everything was so easy, especially using the client portal. Communication in the run-up to our wedding was brilliant, and the follow-up afterwards was just as lovely.
Alexandra was such a wonderful addition to our intimate wedding and was genuinely one of our favourite suppliers on the day. She was so lovely with everyone and fitted into the day perfectly. Our guests absolutely loved having her there and were so excited to receive their beautiful hand-painted portraits. It was so special seeing everyone’s reactions and watching them enjoy something that had been created especially for them.
Having a live illustrator at our wedding was something a little different, and it added such a personal touch to the day. Our own artworks are absolutely beautiful and are something we will treasure forever. They bring back so many lovely memories from the day, and we feel so lucky to have them.
Thank you so much to Alexandra for being part of our special day and for creating something we will always have to look back on. We would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a unique and memorable addition to their wedding!

Common Questions
- I arrive 30 minutes early to set up. My workspace requires a table, two chairs, and a power outlet in a wind-shielded area.Â
- I coordinate with you or the event planner to find a visible, high-traffic spot where guests can see me work and engage. I can be part of the day's entertainment unless you would prefer that I work without interruptions.
- The process is efficient: I take quick reference photos and work from them to create the paintings. We’ll have already chatted about the specific moments you want me to highlight.
- Depending on your choice of package, I’ll spend 2 to 7 hours on-site, making sure every piece is perfectly finished and carefully wrapped for you to collect.
My Live Event Painting service is a unique way to capture the standout moments of your event in professional watercolour.
​
For weddings, I can paint the newlyweds at the altar, walking down the aisle, sharing their first kiss, cutting the cake, or any other moment that focuses on you both. I can also create a series of scenes from throughout the day, such as the bridesmaids’ first look, the ceremony, speeches, the venue, décor details, or fun, candid guest moments.
​
For corporate or private events, I can capture the overall atmosphere of the occasion, keynote speakers, décor, teams, the venue itself, or more candid interactions between guests and participants, etc.
