Photo of Ivo the Caricaturist Ivo the Caricaturist "Ivo was our caricature for our wedding reception. He turned up on time and all guests enjoyed the pictures that he did. It’s a great memorabilia for them. We have our picture and will definitely be framed and will be something else to remember from our special day." Based in London, England (37 miles from Reading) Nicola Sales Photo of The Super Caricaturist The Super Caricaturist "Rob was just amazing!! It was one of the best decisions that we made for our wedding having him there. Our guests just loved him. He had a constant queue the whole time he was with us. We absolutely loved our colour portrait. It was hilarious but just perfect. We would definitely recommend Rob for any type of event. He was worth every single penny. We can’t thank him enough for adding something different to our special day. He was also a lovely and friendly man too. Thank you Rob!! You are a star!!

I would highly recommend him to everyone to come along to their party. The pictures were so true to life, whilst being very funny.

It was great that your wife was able to assist you by adding the fixture and putting the drawing into a plastic sleeve alowing you to concentrate on the drawings, If ever I do something like that again, I will certainly be back in touch with you. Thank you so much.

Frequently asked questions

The average cost of hiring caricaturists is £220, with prices from £50 to £450+. Pricing depends on the artist's experience, the length of the booking and whether the format is walkabout entertainment or a fixed setup. Some caricaturists also offer digital drawing, which allows instant prints for guests.

A skilled caricaturist can typically draw 12 to 15 portraits per hour. For larger events, multiple caricaturists can be booked to ensure more guests are covered. For the best experience, discuss expected guest numbers with the artist to determine how many hours or artists are needed.

Most caricaturists set up at a table or easel and draw guests individually or in small groups. Each portrait typically takes three to five minutes. Some caricaturists also work digitally, with drawings printed or emailed to guests instantly.

The most popular events for caricaturists include weddings, corporate events, trade shows, birthday parties, bar mitzvahs and product launches. Caricature art provides interactive entertainment that also gives guests a personalised souvenir to take home.
