Capturing your day

My passion for art is deeply personal. I started this journey to honour my late dad, a talented artist who always told me to "go for gold." So here I am, bringing that gold-standard service in the form of live wedding illustration to your Cornwall wedding. Being with my pens, paints and paper is exactly where I feel I belong.

Beyond the Cornwall wedding caricaturist

When planning entertainment, many couples search for a wedding caricaturist in Cornwall. For a coastal or barn wedding that leans toward elegance rather than comedy, live wedding illustration offers a chic alternative.

Unlike traditional caricatures, which focus on exaggerated features, my style is editorial and celebratory. I use fine liners, watercolour pens and alcohol markers to create stylish, flattering portraits that your guests will be proud to display. It's the same interactive, wow-factor entertainment as a caricaturist, but with a more whimsical result.

What to expect from Abelia's Art

From the rustic charm of The Green Cornwall to Land's End, I will travel anywhere in Cornwall. I arrive ready to illustrate up to 60 guests on your wedding day, leaving your loved ones with a unique memento. Each guest receives an A5 illustration, hand-packed in a protective sleeve to keep it safe from the Cornish sea breeze.

As a founding supplier of the Wed Collective, I always work to the highest professional standards in the South West wedding industry. Take a look at the full package details to see everything that’s included.

“We had an amazing day, thank you for being part of it. Thank you again, and also for fighting your way through the storm to get to us.”
