Diana K Nino Garcia27 Jan 2025

Booked for Anniversary

Jonathan was fabulous! He entertained the guests with his drawings. We added the colour option, and that was a good idea, as it changed the overall result and enhanced the exaggerated features. I suggest an extended session if your guest wants to be drawn. The time goes by so quickly, there is only so much time... Jonathan is very amicable and had a good chat while drawing, my party was a success!

Booked for Wedding

Thank you so much to MK caricatures for such a wonderful , professional and fun addition to our best friends wedding. You were just super. Great communication with the guests - they all said how nice you were and the caricatures were a lovely keepsake for the guests and the bride and groom. I cannot recommend highly enough.

Booked for Corporate Function

Michael was brilliant- he made everyone feel at ease and was really adaptable to our obscure requests on the event day - It was super easy to brief Michael, attendees looked comfortable in his presence. We were more than happy leaving him to do his thing throughout the hours of the day and appreciated him drawing people from afar for individuals that did not request a drawing ( but more more than happy to accept the gift ) The team and I would highly recommend and of course would love to have him back for future events!

Lukewarm was fantastic, interacted with everyone, was a great guy, and did awesome drawings. Would definitely recommend him for any celebration, helped to make our day so special. Thank you so much

Booked for Wedding

Absolutely fantastic, our wedding guests loved the caricatures and Gremlyn is lovely too. He had a long queue and many people watching throughout the period we booked him for. The likeliness was uncanny in the drawings and he was very quick. Talking to our guests and drawing to that standard is quite something. We are very satisfied customers.

We delivered next level parties for exceptional companies

We also did more than 40,000 birthday parties. Probably, including your neighbour’s recent big bash.
