Caricaturist

If you're wondering whether hiring a caricaturist is worth it, let us assure you that it definitely is! A caricaturist is a fantastic way to break the ice at your party and keep your guests entertained throughout the event.

Our talented caricature artists will bring so much fun to your occasion! In just a matter of moments, they will create hilarious cartoon portraits of you and your guests. The kids will be captivated, the adults will be entertained, and everyone will leave with a special keepsake from the day.

On average, a caricaturist can complete around 12 to 15 caricatures per hour, often causing lots of laughter among the subject's friends. However, the speed may vary depending on factors like whether the artist is using colour, drawing one person or a couple together, and if a detailed background is requested.

Our caricaturists are happy to work in almost any environment, as long as there is sufficient lighting. They can either stand and mingle with the guests or be seated while creating lighthearted caricatures in black and white or colour on A4 paper. It usually takes about five minutes per sketch.

Caricaturists are perfect for all types of events and will surely add a memorable touch to yours!


WEDDING CARICATURIST

Drinks Reception 
When the bride and groom are busy taking their photos, the other guests at a wedding sometimes feel a bit awkward. They may not know many people there, and it can be difficult to strike up conversations. That's where a wedding caricaturist comes in and saves the day!

A wedding caricaturist is a fantastic icebreaker that brings laughter and gets people talking. The caricaturist will move around the venue, mingling with your guests and sketching their caricatures on the spot. The best part is every wedding caricature is completely free for your guests. You just need to pay a one-time hire fee that covers all the caricatures created at your event.

Having a wedding caricaturist not only provides entertainment but also gives your guests something fun to share and talk about. It breaks the ice and creates a lively atmosphere during the photo session. So, everyone can enjoy themselves, even if they don't know many people at the wedding.

Wedding Breakfast
The wedding caricaturist will move around the room, going from table to table, drawing as they go. They understand that some people don't feel comfortable being drawn while they're eating, so they'll focus on drawing guests between courses or those who have finished their meals. This can be really helpful if there are any delays with the food, as it keeps your guests entertained while they wait.

You won't believe the impact a wedding caricaturist can have on the atmosphere at your wedding. You'll hear lots of laughter wherever the caricaturist is drawing, which means your family and friends are having a great time. Plus, the wedding caricature itself makes a wonderful wedding favour that your guests can take home and frame.

Don't forget, if you arrange it beforehand with the caricaturist, you can have your name and the date of your wedding pre-printed on the paper. That way, it becomes an even more special keepsake from your big day.

Evening Reception
If you're planning to hire a caricaturist for your wedding, it's best to make the most of their services during the earlier part of the evening. This is when you'll see the greatest impact. During this time, the DJ hasn't started playing music to get people up and dancing yet, and the evening guests are just starting to arrive. Most people are sitting around in groups, not quite sure what to do.

This is where the caricaturist's fun and entertaining art comes into play. It has an incredible effect on the atmosphere, and you'll notice crowds starting to gather around the caricaturist. People will be amazed as they watch their friend or family member's caricature come to life right before their eyes. It's a captivating sight that brings joy and excitement to the event. So, by having the caricaturist during the earlier part of the evening, you can make the most of this incredible experience and create a lively atmosphere for everyone to enjoy.
