Our members LOVED this artist. They have not stopped raving about him since NYE. I would highly recommend to anyone who is looking for a great caricaturist!!
We received rave reviews at our event and would definitely book Andrew again in the future!
Andrew was totally on point for the event! His sketches were great, hilarious, and kept the guests talking all night. In addition, he has a wonderful sense of humor and kept guests entertained and laughing while having there sketches done.
Thank you! Would certainly book again!!
Response from Andrewland Studios - Andrew Wilkie:
I was happy to attend. Your guests were very entertaining and everybody was friendly and great. Thanks for having me.
I hired Andrew to entertain guests during my daughter's NOLA destination/Mardi Gras themed wedding reception. I wanted to go all out on the entertainment/extras and, at my daughter's special request, wanted to find a caricature artist for the first couple of hours of the reception before the DJ showed up/during dinner & cocktails. Andrew was FABULOUS!! He is amazingly talented, personable, and was able to get everyone a drawing that wanted one in the time allotted. My guests LOVED him! His communication with me leading up to the event was stellar. He was quick to get back with me regarding details and his professionalism on site was unmatched. I planned this wedding long distance and was nervous that there would be a glitch/issue with at least one of the different vendors I hired (three of which were through GigSalad-a site I had never heard of before but will definitely be using again) but I could not have gotten a better result and I am convinced my daughter's wedding will be the talk among our guests for many years to come and that is in no small part due to Andrew's professionalism and talent. If you are considering hiring an entertainer, I highly recommend you book him NOW! You will not be disappointed. Thank you so much, Andrew. You were so great to work with!
