Owen Mathers Illustration Reviews 

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!

Wedding Couple Portrait

I ordered a wedding couple portrait for a friends first wedding anniversary.

Owen was great to work with and his work is really fantastic.

I can’t wait to see my friends reaction when they see it.

5 Star service

Owen did an amazing job illustrating our wedding and was so nice and easy to work with. The guests absolutely loved their portraits and the painting of our ceremony is something we will treasure forever. Completely recommend!

Owen has done a wonderful painting for us from our wedding abroad and incorporated different elements from the two venues we had creating a truly unique and special painting for us.
Owen was really easy to engage with and the whole process was seamless.
We definitely be in touch for future works!
Thanks again Owen.

Owen is just fantastic. Great communication prior to our wedding, and so friendly and professional on the day. He was a huge hit with our guests; we added an extra hour of guest portraits and there was still a queue! Our illustrations are beautiful and we will cherish them forever. Thank you Owen.

Owen is just brilliant. We cannot recommend him enough as the most perfect touch to your big day.
Every single illustration created for us is beautiful, and filled with little details which we will treasure as a perfect way to remember our day.
Our guests were raving about him all day, and still are. So many guests have framed their portraits and felt it was the loveliest take away to remember the day.
The whole process from initially chatting to Owen, seeing him on the day, to receiving our amazing illustrations only a few weeks post wedding in a beautifully presented box, nothing could have been better.
Absolute perfection! We are SO happy we chose Owen to bring an extra something to our wedding.
Thank you so much Owen.

Amazing amazing amazing.
Owen created something we will treasure forever and was such a pleasure to deal with.

We cannot recommend Owen enough!

Owen completed two live paintings during our day, as well as easily over a hundred portraits of our guests. Our family and friends were so delighted with their portraits - everyone was raving about them, and it was so much fun to watch Owen at work. We cannot wait to put our paintings up - what a unique way to remember our special day.

Owen is a dream to work with too, he is very quick to respond to queries - and was happy to tailor his packages to what we needed. He was worth every penny.

We hired Owen for our October wedding. He created several pieces of art for us - the ceremony, the speeches, and a couples image. Each piece is so amazing and we can't wait to get them all framed in our home. They capture the essence of the day perfectly. We also hired Owen to do paintings for guests who wanted to sit and get a portrait. The guests loved the images and they were a big source of joy and discussion. Owen himself is a lovely guy, he worked incredibly hard during the whole day and we appreciated having him with us. If you are interested in hiring Owen for your big day I would highly recommend it, we went for the 'Grand' package and he was worth every penny. His art brings something exciting to the event that guests feel invested in and so many wanted photos with the final piece. So many guests commented on the artwork and it just added something extra special to the day. Go for it!

Owen was a fantastic addition to our wedding day. All our guests remarked on how impressed they were with Owen's talent and friendliness. He was definitely a highlight of the day and we can't wait to frame our ceremony illustration.

Owen’s illustrations are beautiful and a really lovely way to remember our wedding day. He painted the ceremony live and displayed the painting in the evening for us all to see, which was really lovely. The guests loved the guest portraits as well! Owen was brilliant in the run up to the wedding as well - a really lovely guy who was communicative and helped us decide on timings / set-up. Thank you very much!

A truly unique experience and an absolute gentleman in Owen. Alongside professional photos our illustrations have captured unique memories and portrayed with a little bit of magic and buckets of romance.
Contact was always very speedy and thorough. The illustrations were sent in a beautiful display box with digital prints emailed. The whole process from booking to completion couldn’t be faulted. And our guests loved their portraits. 100% one of the best decisions we made to book Owen.
Thank you for illustrating our wedding day and giving us memories to treasure forever.

Owen was fantastic on our wedding day! He painted our ceremony and over 50 guest portraits throughout the wedding reception and evening. The portraits looked incredible and he really captured all the small details in our wedding portrait that made it that extra special. Owen was lovely and chatted to all our guests who sat with him throughout the day. We can’t wait to see our wedding portrait again when it arrives tomorrow! Thanks Owen for helping make our day perfect!

Owen created 50 guest portrait favours for our recent wedding. He was a pleasure to work with, very polite and responsive and we were kept well informed throughout the process. The portraits were amazing!! Our guests really loved them and they were a great talking point! Many are having them framed for their homes, as we are with ours! They have made a lovely keepsake. We would 100% recommend Owen for your wedding!!

What can I say! It was one of the best decisions I have made having my wedding illustrated. They came out better than I expected. It was a perfect finishing touch.

Owen is an absolute diamond!
His talents are outstanding and he really felt like one of the family on the day.
He is also a dab hand at keeping secrets 😉
He is a breathe of fresh air in the wedding industry!
Thank you Owen x

Owen created a stunning ceremony portrait for our wedding, really focusing on the finer details. This is such a special piece for us to enjoy every day. Owen was brilliant with our guests. They were blown away by their guest portraits and our ceremony portrait. Everything was perfect, and we are so pleased we booked Owen for our day. Thank you!

Owen did lots of fantastic illustrations for our wedding guests and even illustrated the front of our venue whilst the speeches were taking place as an extra illustration for us. The guests all had great things to say about Owen and his illustrations.

We would highly recommend him to others. We booked Owen as our “favour” to guests so they could leave with a personal keepsake to take home and we’re really pleased we did.

I booked Owen after I saw him at a wedding show and fell in love with his work! Everyone at my wedding loved the concept and all were so excited to be able to take a picture home. We had a portrait of us it the aisle as we were getting married and we both absolutely love it
Owen had been so helpful and friendly though out the process of me booking and figuring out what timings I wanted and his work is absolutely beautiful! I have also ordered prints from his website as gifts for my parents which they both love!
Thanks again Owen
