Burnt orange and umber wedding caricatures

 This fabulous wedding had an unusual color scheme: burnt orange and umber, which was PERFECT for the line-drawing-only caricatures I was drawing for the guests...the toned paper made them POP! 

But first, the bride and groom:

I made sure to get his beloved cognac in there! Here is their reaction on my IG. 

There was a unique connection with this bride---I had drawn her two years ago at an anniversary party. 

All my drawings have my contact info on them, so when she booked me I asked whose party it was, and she told me. Then I asked her what she was wearing at this party and if I'd taken a photo--

she said a green feathered-top.  Turns out

 I'd included her photo when I designed my vinyl pull-up banner I use at almost every gig!!!

She's in the middle photo, top row in glasses, doing duck lips (which is why I included that caricature 

as a sample because it was so cute!) 

Here you can see where I was situated at her gloriously over-the-top reception:

Here's how my toned paper looked for the guest caricatures!

Wedding Reception with a real rainbow....and mini-caricatures!

 This is amazing and has never happened at any outdoor wedding reception I've done that I can remember... first a storm, and then a rainbow!! This was truly an evening full of memorable moments.

Here's the video version, in my IG Reel.

Look at that rainbow!

Ok...let's back up a bit...I arrived with a pre-drawn wedding caricature in a signature mat, for the guests to sign their well wishes, and set up on the patio adjacent to the tent for cocktail hour...I had it covered up so the bride and groom wouldn't see it, as they'd opted to be surprised:

People started signing it, and I commenced drawing guests..with over 250 folks there, I used my line-drawing-only mode with mini-caricatures, for speedy results:

Just as the first hour ended and people were asked to head to the tent, this storm arrived:

So everyone adjourned inside the manor house and I continued drawing:

Once the rain stopped, everyone ventured out to the tent and I took a break, so the bride and groom could make their entrance and have speeches and dances. I took some photos of the unsettled, amazing sky...

After dinner, guests came back to the covered porch (third location!)  where I ended my sessions...

The bride and groom were the very last to receive their caricature:

and it was a success!

Thank you for having me via Gigsalad!

First Wedding of 2026---a formal wedding with CARICATURES

This wedding was booked by the bride's maid of honor, what a great gift to the couple!

Ambiance Reel.   Bride and groom's reaction Reel.

Held at one of my fave venues, The Waterfall (not just because it's near where I live, but also it is top-notch!)  the guests adhered to a formal black dress code. And because there were over 100 of them, I did my speedy line-drawing-only mode, to get more guests drawn.

These last two pics were taken at the very end. The caricaturist is always last to leave!

Thank you for having me!
