Mark was very professional and responsive from the start. He was prompt with messages and gave us a very clear idea of what to expect. He was receptive to suggestions, arrived early on the day and was set up and ready for guests as soon as they arrived. Full marks for the most hassle free experience. His caricatures were excellent and impressed all the guests. Five stars for the service 👍

Alan was brilliant. He kept in touch and responded promptly before the event and was a huge success with the guests at our daughter's evening wedding reception. Professioal and amusing throughout. We have no hesitation in recommending him.

Although Dave had to travel some distance he arrived on time. He was very polite, friendly and professional. He made our micro wedding reception complete. Everyone was very happy with his caricature drawings which created a lot of friendly laughs and chatter. Thank you Dave you're highly recommended by us.

Sean was fantastic at our wedding. He was nice and quick so was able to fit in so many of our guests who were so happy with their pictures. Very professional but also friendly and happy. Savage caricatures also stepping in with very late notice and we’re extremely helpful. I’m so glad I choose them and I would use again and highly recommend.
