Michael provides top quality live caricature entertainment at over 100 weddings per year in additional to 50 corporate events with a client list that includes the likes of Audi, Sky, John Lewis, Manchester United, Porsche, VW, Skoda, Wickes, The Prince's Trust, Sports Direct and many more.
You will be amazed by the quality and speed of Michael's work with an average of 12 - 15 people drawn every hour. While some people can be apprehensive that a caricature may highlight imperfections, you rest assured that Michael's complimentary style will not only delight and entertain your guests but will also provide them with a lasting momento to treasure for years to come.
You can also commission Michael to create personalised caricature stationery like seating plans and place cards. This is a fun and unique way of letting your guests know where they're sitting but the place cards can also double up as a party favour for your guests to take away from the event.
We hired MK Caricatures for our wedding and Michael was absolutely fantastic and went down a treat. He was polite, friendly, on time and very accommodating when we asked him to stay an extra hour as he was so popular with our guests. The caricatures were fantastic and he presented me and my husband with a framed caricature of us in our wedding outfits when he arrived. This will take pride of place in our home it absolutely stunning. My guests were coming up to me all night full of praise and he interacted with our guests brilliantly and was happy to approach them and mingle. The quality of the drawings is amazing. Thank you Michael for making our wedding so special. I would highly recommend him - you will not be disappointed.
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!
Wow wow just loved our caricatures as did all of our guests, they most certainly were the talking point of the day, absolutely delighted with them even on discovering on wedding day that the date printed on them was wrong they have agreed to reprint them, fantastic service
Lovely man he did not stop working Very pleasant We had a casual walk round which worked out very nice
Lovely friendly guy, provided a great service doing caricatures at our wedding. They were very good drawings and he got through a lot of people in the time and stayed a bit over the three hours. Would definitely recommend Michael.
MK Caricatures produced caricature place settings for the guests at my graduation ball, they were amazing and such good quality. Fantastic service and made it very easy for me!
Michael came to our anniversary celebration and was a huge hit by both students and staff alike. He was a consummate professional having him at our celebration added a lot of buzz and fun to the day.
Very professional service, kept in contact before and during the event to make sure everything went to plan. Guests loved the caricatures, prints and emails. Would definitely book again.
"Michael was unable to cover my event and alerted me on Friday, 9th of November in the evening and the event was for Saturday 10th! Before I could read the rest of his message, my heart was already pounding! I then read the rest of his message which I honestly couldn’t fault.
Michael explained that his event on Saturday, having only just realised when he returned from his travel would have meant he wouldn’t be able to get to my event on time. He then provided an excellent customer service which is why I have given a 5 rating by getting me a caricaturist, his friend to cover the event and also gave me a discount due to the inconvenience and to this I say a massive thank you to Michael. He arranged for someone (Francesco) to cover the event, passed on all details and assured me the person will make contact. I couldn’t fault that and and all I could pray for was for his replacement to deliver on the night and he did.
Francesco contacted me on the morning of the event, asked a few questions about the evening to get a feel for the party and how I wanted him to work and also paid attention to the dress code of it being a Black Tie Event and was dressed for the occasion.
I couldn’t fault Francesco as he engaged the guest throughout the evening from when he arrived. He was polite, professional, engaging, diligent and did a fantastic job. He engaged throughout and offered a different dimension and fun to the evening. Thank you very much to Michael and Francesco as we all had a great time and the guest have not stopped talking about Francesco and the way he interacted with everyone even when they were having their meals and how flexible he was.
He gave over a 100% service and it was truly a wonderful evening and for this we are truly grateful. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Francesco to events as well as Michael for the professionalism displayed in making the event truly awesome, so thank you both. Best wishes, Anu"
Micheal was a fantastic asset to our influencer dinner, not only was he a hit with our guests but the quality of his work was through the roof. I would highly recommend Micheal and have already done so to my other clients! Do not hesitate to book!!
Really happy with ML Caricatures. Punctual, friendly, funny and most of all Great drawings!
"All the staff at our Christmas Party loved having the addition of caricaturists.
Michael was very helpful in providing an additional artist as our party was so large, and both Michael and Francesco were fantastic.
It was great fun, and there was always a queue for both artists!"

"I highly recommend Michael at MK Caricatures. Michael was easy to contact, quick to respond and very flexible where possible (we had a last-minute time change!). Michael drew over 20 portraits for us and we were all extremely pleased with how they turned out. In addition to this, Michael printed a company logo and a birthday message on to the bottom of each sheet which gave it a lovely final touch and for only a small additional charge. Michael himself was very friendly and made everyone feel at ease - some were worried about feeling awkward whilst their portrait was being done, however, didn't feel this way at all.
Thank you again Michael!"
