Fantastic wedding addition

What a fantastic experience with Owen - from the time of booking through to the goodbyes on the day everything was professional. We absolutely love our ceremony painting which is hanging in our living room and our friends and family love their portraits from the day! Everyone said what a great addition it was, it’s great for guests all throughout the day and a fantastic alternative to favours which are always forgotten!!

Owen was brilliant

Owen was brilliant. I reached out to Owen to illustrate for my wedding as a surprise for my wife, and he was super accommodating to keep it a surprise as well as thoughtful in the lead up to the day, meeting with me to talk everything through. The reveal on the day was perfect and we couldn't be happier with how everything turned out and the guests loved their evening portraits as well.

The touches that make a difference

I came across Owen's lovely work when I was researching wedding illustrators - I thought rather than have a content creator, it would be cool to have an illustration that was captured during our wedding ceremony, for something a bit different and relevant to that moment that we can keep forever.

On exploring his event packages, I thought having illustrations of guests during the reception would be great too - having a live creative expression but also something additional to drinks for people to get involved in.

This was a great decision - our guests loved their portraits and raved about the idea, and we are incredibly happy to have such a beautiful picture from our wedding day.

If you are considering booking Owen, my advice is.. go ahead! These special touches to your day or any event make a real difference, and are enduring!

Such a wonderful service and experience…

Such a wonderful service and experience to add to the wedding day. Our guests loved their own portraits and we have a fun way of capturing our day, especially for a very camera shy couple.

An exceptional addition to our special day

Owen was the illustrator for our wedding in East Yorkshire. He produced guest portraits, the ceremony picture, and a couples picture outside the venue. His work was exceptional - all the guests commented on the guest portraits and the ceremony picture he had completed ‘live’ on the day. He was communicative and it was clear what we were purchasing. He met us beforehand to clarify our expectations further. He produced a high quality illustration and provided a novel addition to our special day - a hit with family and friends alike.

Owen’s services were a surprise wedding…

Owen’s services were a surprise wedding gift for myself and my husband and I can’t overstate how incredible it was. Owen live painted our ceremony and also painted guest portraits during our evening reception. The final ceremony piece was incredible and will be a keepsake we cherish forever. We also had so many guests tell us how amazing it was to have the opportunity to have themselves painted during the reception.

Owen has to be at your wedding!

It was a privelege to have Owen paint at our wedding. He was a fan favourite with a queue for his portraits throughout the drinks receptions. Our family & freinds absolutely loved the keepsakes from the day he lovingly painted for them. As for our ceremony portrait, it’s wonderful, so wonderful that the only issue we now have is finding a place nice enough to hang it. Owen himself is friendly, kind & professional throughout the whole process. We couldn’t recommend him highly enough, one of the best investments we made for the big day.

We’re so glad we booked Owen Mathers!

We’re so glad we booked Owen Mathers to illustrate our wedding day, it was one of the most unique and special parts of the whole celebration. He quietly worked away capturing the ceremony and it was incredible to see the illustration take shape in real time!
The finished piece is absolutely beautiful, full of detail and personality, and such a meaningful reminder of the day.

As well as creating a beautiful piece featuring our venue, Owen also did live illustrations of our guests, which they absolutely loved! It created such a fun talking point and gave everyone something really personal and unexpected to take away.

Owen was a pleasure to have around: calm, professional, and extremely talented. His work gave us something completely different from traditional photography — something handmade and full of heart. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a one-of-a-kind memento of their day.

Original, outstanding and feeling overjoyed!

I’m so glad that we chose to have Owen at our wedding doing illustrations. We are delighted with our ceremony illustration, Owen has really captured the moment. Our guests loved the surprise of having an illustration done, and everyone had a memorable gift to take home. Not only is Owen exceptional in his field, he’s such a wonderful person too, with an amazing personality. He truly accommodated everything that we wanted on the day. If you are getting married soon, having Owen to illustrate your wedding is an absolute must!

Owen was fantastic on our wedding day!

Owen was fantastic on our wedding day! All of our guests commented on how much they loved having their portraits done and what a wonderful idea it was. He illustrated our wedding ceremony and the final illustration is utterly beautiful! He managed to capture all of the detials in the room as well as the view of the London sky line out of the window! It was a really special and unique item to have of our wedding day. He even did a little portrait of our dog who wasn't able to be there on the day.
Owen has really clear communication throughout the booking process and very friendly in person! We would highly recommend booking Owen for any event you have!

Wedding portraits

Owen was helpful and friendly from the very first time we met at a wedding fair. We decided to book Owen for our wedding, he presented us with a beautiful portrait of us (and captured us SO well) on the night and provided several guests with portraits. We decided to do this as a memorable reminder for our guests of our wonderful day and believe that’s exactly what we achieved.

I can’t recommend Owen highly enough - he was a wonderful addition to our wedding day. From the very beginning, he took the time to understand exactly what we were looking for and was incredibly accommodating with all our requests and timings. He went above and beyond to ensure we received everything we wanted, and his attention to detail was exceptional. Our guests were absolutely delighted with their bespoke illustrations, and it was a unique touch that made the day even more special. Owen’s work truly helped make our celebration unforgettable.

Amazing addition to our wedding

Owen illustrated our wedding ceremony and completed guest portraits - he was one of our favourite parts of our day! We now have an incredible keepsake and so many guests commented on what a great addition he was. Well worth the price and a unique way to remember any special occasion. Owen even came to find us later on to take photos to complete an additional portrait of us as we were so busy on the day, which was much appreciated!

What an amazing and unique experience…

What an amazing and unique experience for our wedding! Owen came to our drinks reception to draw couples and friends, as we had a winter wedding we wanted an indoor experience and this did not disappoint. Guests were queuing for his drawings and it was a talking point all day! Owen was easy to work with and very professional, he is also very talented. I would highly recommend Owen - Thanks again!
