Oh my gosh, you’re getting married! Congratulations. I offer a variety of digital services for weddings (big or small) and would love to have a chat with you regarding your special day if you're looking for something arty and unique. Take a peek below at my offering, or pop me an email to discuss something super bespoke.

“What can we say other than thank you from the bottom of our hearts. We were Art by Shiv’s first wedding illustration event and you would never have been able to tell! Shiv & her partner were nothing short of amazing, professional, discreet & and a perfect addition to the day. We had so many compliments on the unique idea and have had so many people ask who we used. We would not hesitate to recommend Shiv again in the future. We wish you all the success in the world on your new adventure and love looking back on your fabulous work as a constant reminder of our perfect day!”

“Shiv is one of a kind! Her wedding illustration service was such a fun part of our day and it was exactly the personal touch we were looking for. Our guests haven't stopped talking about it.”
FAQS
-
It’s pretty simple, really! We’ll have a quick chat to discuss your wedding plans and what you need.
If you purchase an in-person package, you can introduce me to your wedding planner/venue and I will happily deal with any logistics directly. Who needs extra admin, am I right?!
On the day, I’ll arrive at your venue between 30-60 minutes before your guests arrive to set up and I’ll stick around until I have completed what’s included in my package.
I’ll be present around guest ‘lull’ periods, but will likely find a comfy quiet spot during your wedding breakfast/speeches etc so that I can work as quickly as possible.
I will upload guest illustrations to your wedding gallery before I leave, and will leave a little QR code/sign at the end of the day so your guests can access it.
I recommend you also communicate this to guests post-wedding for anyone who is just having TOO much fun on the dance floor - as they should!
I can be as flexible as I need to be on the day, so don’t worry too much about timings if anything is changed at short notice.
If you purchase a remote package, you’ll receive a display kit in the post before your big day with instructions and key information. You can choose the perfect spot to pop it at your venue (make sure your bridal party is aware so they can encourage guests to make use of it).
-
My rate is my minimum day rate, as I would never book two events on the same day.
40 guests is simply a ‘maximum’ number that I can achieve on the day of your wedding (through experience).
I will always spend more time on illustrations where I can, to ensure that you can get the best quality/value from my service. Due to this, I do not offer discounted rates if you have less than 40 guests.
-
Yes, I can! However, they may not all be finished on the day of your wedding.
After 40 guests have been drawn, there is an additional charge of £5.00 per guest. If you know that you want all guests to have an illustration please let me know in the contact form so that I can provide an accurate quote.
-
Honestly, not much! I just need enough space for me, my artboard/iPad, and a few small bits of signage. I’ll need a table and chair, and access to power.
If there’s a quieter space that I can work from during the wedding breakfast/speeches, that’d be amazing.
-
Yes please! You can usually arrange this with your venue (as you would with other suppliers working on the day).
This of course doesn’t apply to my remote package!
