Two versions of the same picture, and both are free with no account and no watermark. The first has no background at all, which is the one to send your artist — but a phone or computer photo viewer set to dark will show black strokes on dark grey and it can look like nothing downloaded. If that happens, use the second one: identical characters on a plain white background. Either way you get the characters on their own — the square and the faint guide lines you see above are not in the file. Each character is 1000px, so a two-character download is 2000×1000, and the script and layout are the ones you picked.

Same in both

Rubbing mode: white on black, as a stone rubbing. The download is unaffected.
Good given from above rather than earned. Chinese says it as heaven bestowing, and the phrasing is everyday rather than pious.
Before you commit
Choose with careNo single character says blessing from heaven. 福 alone is just good fortune, with nothing about where it came from.
Pairs well with天賜良緣, a heaven-given match, is a standard wedding phrase and would be read instantly.
At small sizes天 is four strokes and open, 賜 is fifteen and dense. The pair is unbalanced - the second character carries all the weight.
Meaning
Heaven-given; bestowed from above.
Exactly what the English says, and it is used of gifts and of lucky breaks.

What to do next
Pick the script and layout you want above, download the PNG, and send that file to your artist. Ask them to work from the file rather than redrawing the character freehand — that is where strokes go missing.
