"We want to thank you for the beautiful painting you made of our engagement. It was even more stunning in person. I showed it to my family and friends and everyone loved it so much. You are an amazing artist"
My partner was unsure about the 'need' for a live illustrator at our wedding, but he isn't now. He can't stop raving about it :) Lissy is so talented, and both her, and her partner Patrick were professional and absolutely lovely. 'Adore by Lissy' added something extra special to our day, that everyone loved and the A5 painting ensures that it will be remembered.
