A fantastic addition to your wedding day!

Owen was a fantastic addition to our wedding day. He painted us at the end of the isle, and did portraits of our guests, giving them a lovely keep sake to take away. On time, approachable and very efficient, we can't fault the service Owen provided.

This is such a nice way to capture memories on your wedding day, and give guests a lovely keep sake, we would highly recommend!!

Amazing

We booked Owen a couple of years before our wedding. He was fantastic from start to finish. He was well organised and was brilliant with us and the guests. He was punctual and really blended into the day.
He completed a live illustration of us and guest portraits everyone commented on how amazing he was and we can't wait receive our illustrations. Can not recommend enough.

Outstanding!

Owen was phenomenal! The art he created is ready to take pride of place in our home!

Our guests were fighting over each other to have portraits with him to the point where Owen has created some after the event and sent them to family! We are so grateful for how hard he worked on the day, we was creating non stop for nearly 12 hours and it shows because our pictures are perfect! We can't decide which is our favourite as they are all perfect!

Owen was so flexible in the planning process and throughout the day to make sure he was capturing what we wanted and it made all the difference to the end result!

Thank you Owen, we are so grateful for you and your talents in capturing our day so perfectly!

Amazing experience and service - such a talent!

Owen illustrated our micro wedding earlier this month (September 2024) and we are over the moon with the fact that we now have an heirloom illustration to keep forever. Our guests also loved the idea of having little illustrations to take away as wedding favours and fun reminders of a wonderful day. He was fantastic to work with, communicated at every step of the way and was an honorary family member for the day. Loved his style of illustration as well. We would recommend his services to anyone looking for something different for their special day!

Incredible live artists

We recently got married in Norfolk and found Owen and his amazing live illustration offering through a Facebook page. Owen was fantastic in the planning process through his responsiveness and flexibility. Our guests loved his live illustrations and it gave them a great unique keep sake to remember our day. Owen's large painting of our ceremony was beautiful and he really captured the scene incredibly and our likeness. He was a pleasure to work with and would highly recommend him to add a different touch to your special day. We cant thank him enough for his great service and talents!

Such a fabulous gift!

Owen came to my son’s wedding and was such a great hit with the guests. I’m so glad I paid for an extra hour so more people had a lovely momento of the day. The Bride and Groom were over the moon with their illustration. Don’t hesitate! Book Owen! Thanks so much Owen!

Owen was absolutely brilliant

Owen was absolutely brilliant!

I arranged for Owen to attend our wedding as a surprise for my bride to be. He understood the task and set about doing it diligently, professionally and the resulting portrait was amazing.

He stayed for a few hours longer to do wedding guest portraits and we have received extremely good feedback from those that got one painted.

All in all, you will not be disappointed and we have an amazing piece of art which is hanging with pride in our house and will do for the rest of our lives.

Thanks again.

A wonderful addition to any wedding

Owen illustrated our ceremony and then painted guest portraits at our wedding reception at Bressingham Hall and High Barn. The painting of us was so detailed, it's now hanging on our wall and is such a lovely keepsake. The guests loved their portraits and as he was so popular on the day Owen even did a few extra portraits of some of the wedding party after the wedding day and sent them to us in the post. Owen was also really organised in the run up to the day, responding to emails very quickly.
We're so pleased we asked Owen to paint at our wedding, his work is incredible, and it was so lovely to have something unique to remember the day by. We would definitely recommend Owen if you are looking to capture your day in a slightly different way!

Would recommend for wedding illustrations

Owen did live paintings and guest portraits for our wedding. We absolutely love our paintings; it is so lovely having them to remember our special day. The guests also loved their portraits and it was nice for them to have something to take away. We had Owen booked for two hours guest portraits and there was always a queue; we wish we'd booked him for longer. Owen was always friendly and knew exactly what he was doing. We would recommend him for anyone considering having an illustrator for their wedding.

An incredible experience!

We used Owen Mathers Illustration for our wedding day at Holkham Hall. From the initial enquiry to the services on the day, Owen was professional and attentive. Owen is not only extremely talented, but very friendly and kind. All of our guests were so impressed with the live portrait experience and felt it was a fun and unique idea to take something home to remember the day by. We now have some beautiful artwork of our ceremony and special momentos of the day, that we will admire and cherish forever. We would highly recommend Owen for your wedding/event to anyone!

Hockwold Hall Wedding

We first met Owen at the Hockwold Hall Wedding Fayre in January, and as soon as we saw his portraits we knew we had to book him for our wedding 3 months later. He was a great addition to the gap in between the ceremony and wedding breakfast, and the guests absolutely loved getting their portraits done. The finished ceremony illustration is absolutely beautiful and we cannot recommend Owen enough! If anyone is thinking of booking an illustrator for their wedding, Owen is the man!
