Booked for Wedding

When hiring Noelia, we wanted something unique and the opportunity for our wedding guests to take home their own keepsake from the wedding, this is something they defiantly got. While Noelia was with us she was kind and helpful throughout the evening. All of the guests commented on how amazing her work was and the way she interacted with everyone, treating them and their piece of art with individuality and care. There was never a dull moment and she always had someone waiting to get their drawing done. Following the wedding we received a vast amount of positive comments about her and her work with some claiming she was the best entertainment they had ever seen at an event. The staff at the venue also commented on her professionalism. She was always smiling and created some truly stunning pieces of art for our guests. She went above and beyond to ensure that my partner and I got everything we wanted and so much more. Her kind hearted nature and talent is something that will go unrivalled and we are extremely grateful that she chose to attend and work our wedding, providing us with moments that will stay with us forever.

Booked for Celebration

Silu was great, he worked hard to draw everyone. His drawings capture a true image of the person he draws. Fantastic service and I was also really impressed with the quality of the paper and also the folders he provided for each picture he drew. Silu is a great professional and I will be sure to hire him again as well as recommend him to others. Thank you silu for making our event one to remember.

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.

All live artists are NOT the same. Good ones are rare! I am renowned as one of the UK's most sought-after live event caricaturists, with the skills and experience to back this up. I have a confident, clean style and, most importantly of all, an ability to capture phenomenal, undeniable likenesses. Combine this with a naturally friendly and approachable manner, and you have a truly unique entertainment choice that will keep your guests talking and the 'buzz' going long after the day has ended!

About supplier

Many caricaturists boast of entertaining guests "with cheeky charm and witty banter". Me? I passionately believe that the art should do the talking. So while you can be sure I'm a friendly conversational guy, my #1 goal is to provide funny, undeniably pitch-perfect likenesses. Every single time.
