When it comes to gift giving, time can be our worst enemy. SUDDENLY the event for the gift giving has arrived and that perfect gift, well you want to give something unique, but how and from where is not yet thought about.

Of course we know that the perfect gift is a custom caricature from one of the talented artists at Caricature King.

But as some people discover, it is not always possible to get a caricature in 24-48 hours. Apart from existing workloads, it also takes time to create perfection.

So what to do…..?

An increasing number of people are finding the solution to last minute gift ideas is to give a Caricature Gift Certificate instead.

Easily delivered via email within 24 hours, all you have to do is print it out and hand it over!

The certificate can be for any amount that corresponds to caricature product prices, so if you want to give “2 full bodies in scene, then you can, and the recipient of the gift certificate can then choose which artist they like best!!

Weddings can be such stiff and formal affairs. Often they are strangled by tradition and routine.

The path to wedding formality starts with the wedding invitations. There is that word again that is used to describe them – ‘formal’. Often featuring gilding, embossing, script style lettering on while linen paper…..

In today’s contemporary society there is a strong move away from excessive formality and rigidity in weddings. While the actual wedding service can follow the usual protocols, the background emotion nowadays is often more fun and celebratory.

So how can you set the tone for the day?

One easy way is to start early and send out invitations that reveal your intention for a fun-filled time of celebration of your future lives together. The easiest and increasingly popular way to do this is to use a custom caricature as a main feature of your invitation that clearly expresses your mood.

Wedding invitations are an important aspect. It is from the tone that is set on the invitation that can influence the types of gifts that are bought, and most importantly the underlying mood of guests on the day!

So imagine the impact a wedding invitation that features fun-filled image that denotes love and joy and some impish fun will have!!

The fun starts with the ideas that you can think of for what you want to show – some have the bride carrying off the groom, others denote some important aspect of their life together.

The best part about getting a custom caricature drawn is you can have whatever you want. Sites like caricatureking.com do not use templates, every job is 100% unique and becomes an amazing keepsake in its own right.

So if you are getting married, think about the opportunities that a custom caricature wedding save-the-date or wedding invitation can provide.

The use of caricatures is always of interest and I am pleased to be able to show you this use of a caricature sent to us by one of our clients.

As you can see it was displayed at the wedding reception and looks very classy in the black frame and dark mat and this helps set off the red roses on the crisp white linen. As the client said “everyone loved it. THANKS!!!”

The artist on this occasion was George - however we have other artists if this style does not suit your taste.

Imagine if your friend is getting married and you are part of the wedding preparations!!

This was the situation facing Katie…so what a great idea in getting a caricature that showed all was well and plans would still progress, despite the fact now each lived in different cities.

The result is a fun caricature that was sooo well received.

And Kaitie’s comment….

I LOVE IT…thank you so much!  Please pass along my thanks to Zalo…it turned out just perfect!

Wedding invitations can also be used to well, let people know a bit more about what is going on in your life other than just getting married.

Here’s a great example produced by artist Shane.

The look on the groom’s face is a classic, but check out the look on the bride’s face.
