Live event illustration is an interactive guest experience where artwork is created in real time during your wedding, corporate event or brand activation.
At Graced Goods, we create elegant guest portraits, fashion sketches, calligraphy and personalised keepsakes live on-site — giving guests both entertainment and a meaningful memento to take home.

During your wedding reception or celebration, guests are photographed individually or in groups before being illustrated live.
While actual duration depends on the complexity of each guest’s outfit, each portrait can usually be completed in 8-12 minutes.
Our live wedding illustration experience is designed to flow seamlessly alongside your event, allowing guests to enjoy the excitement of watching custom portraits come to life throughout the evening. Finished illustrations are packaged beautifully and can be taken home on the night.
