2. How to Hire a Wedding Caricaturist
So, the question has been popped and you’ve said yes! Now the
planning starts…
Finding a venue, organising your photographer and planning your once
in a lifetime honeymoon is just the start of your ‘to-do’ list.
But what about keeping your guests entertained on your big day?
One of the most unique wedding entertainment ideas is to hire a
wedding caricaturist to keep your guests entertained.
So, just how do you go about hiring a caricaturist for your wedding day
entertainment and what should you expect? Here are 5 top tips to help
you get the ultimate wedding entertainment for your big day that will
have your guests rolling in the aisle with laughter!!

3. 1. Where to find your caricaturist
Your first step is to make a general search for ‘Wedding Caricaturists’
in search engines.
look at the image results for these searches which will give you a
really good idea of what to expect from a wedding caricaturist.
Most caricaturists are surprisingly sympathetic with their drawings,
with an emphasis on gentle humour rather than the more cruel
satirical caricatures you may have seen in newspapers and
magazines.
You can also search for entertainment agencies for caricaturists.
This may help you to feel more secure with your booking but can
add an extra cost than hiring a caricaturist direct.

4. 2. Start Local
Tighten your search to local results.
Find out who in your local area is offering a wedding caricature
service.
Working with a local artist may save you some cost that a
caricaturist further afield may charge for travel (and occasionally
accommodation if the distance is great).

5. 3. Check out past customer
testimonials
Any caricaturist worth considering will have a website of images and
reviews from past customers.
If the caricaturist is any good at all these will be easily available for
you to review.
Check the dates of the reviews left to make sure they are recent and
the caricaturist is not just riding on distant successes.

6. 4. Check out their pricing
Most caricaturists charge by the hour and a minimum booking of 2
hours is the norm.
Prices can range from £150 - £350 for a two-hour booking. For this,
your guests will usually receive a black and white caricature that
should really take no more than 4 or 5 minutes each – often faster.
Price is not always the best indicator of quality. While you are
looking at the site, check out the gallery of party caricature images.
What do you think of the likeness? Would you be happy for your
guests to receive one of the images as a gift from you

7. 5. Get in contact!
Email a few caricaturists and get a feel for how they communicate
with you. Are they friendly and warm or are they more business-
like? Do you get your questions answered fully and in good time?
Once a few emails have passed, a quick call to finalise the details
such as timings and requirements (will the caricaturist be bringing
an easel and lights or simply go from table to table) this will also give
you another opportunity to get to know your caricaturist.

8. There you have it!
The advantage of hiring a caricaturist for your
wedding entertainment is the fun and memorable
gift your guests get to take home form you as a
wonderful memento of your special day.
Following the steps outlined above should help to
ensure this part of your planning can be ticked off
the list!
