- We booked Allan for our wedding and it was a huge hit with our guests! It's a great way for your guests to have a keepsake of the day and something a little different as entertainment. Allan was absolutely fantastic and was the perfect addition to our day!Grace McGlinchey5/03/2026If you are looking for entertainment during the wedding reception, getting Allan to do caricatures will be one thing you won't regret. The only thing I regret is not getting him for longer than 2 hours, it was such a huge hit with all our guests and Allan was just so lovely and engaging with everyone! My son loves dinosaurs and Allan drew a dinosaur on the bottom right of his caricature! Everyones caricature was amazing, it looked just like them! Such a lovely memory for everyone who came to our wedding! Thank you so much Allan, I would give more than 5 ⭐️ if I could !!Gwen Q4/29/2026We can't recommend Allan enough. From the moment I first emailed to enquire he was so helpful. We decided to book him instead of doing wedding favours and everyone had great craic with him. One of our guests unfortunately lost their drawing in all the madness and Allan was so kind to redraw it based on a picture he had taken. Thank you so much Allan.Aisling Irwin4/16/2026

- Great craic. My cousin had this entertainment for her wedding reception 10 years ago & I loved it. So when our big day came up we knew we had to have it too. All our guests got involved and we went for the 3 hour package as it was a good deal amd meant more of our guest could be drawn. He even put our 2 children into the picture with myself & my husband which we really appreciated. Pictures are so realistic & ours is going straight into a frame after our honeymoon.Morgan Kelly11/06/2025Allan was a big hit at our wedding—super talented, quick, and had everyone smiling. Couldn’t have asked for better entertainment. Definitely recommend him for any event!Dita O’halloran9/22/2025Well what can I say about Allan..absolutely amazing! We hired him recently for our wedding day & ordered a signing board as you can see for our guests. We took 1 look at board & said nope no1’s writing on it! We’ve just bought our first home together & know exactly where to put it! From start to finish he was fantastic!He never stopped the entire time he was with us, the queue of people waiting never died down. He was fast, professional & great craic; he got a lot of laughs out of our guests. People are still sending me pictures of their drawings saying they loved them! Our only regret is not getting a chance to sit down & get ours done again! I would highly recommend hiring Allan! He made our special day so much brighter! Thanks again!Emma Farrelly8/26/2025

His talent, speed, and sense of humour made the experience so memorable for everyone. He managed to capture everyone so perfectly! We’ve had so many guests tell us that it was one of their favourite parts of the day.

He really added to the day and it was great for the guests to have something to take home with them to remember the day. Allan encouraged everyone to get involved and we were thrilled to have him as part of our day.Lisa Gray5/21/2025We booked Allan for our wedding on April 19th 2025 and we are at a loss for words by how incredible he was. All of the guests are still talking about how good (and incredibly quick) he was at his art and how they loved that they got to take home their own caricature. I think it shocked everyone how good Allan truly was and how each caricature really brought out the features of each individual that you really knew who each caricature was. It was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding reception. We can not thank Allan enough. He is such a down to earth guy, so so lovely. He fit right in with our guests and was well able to have laughs with each and everyone of them which is just what we wanted. We highly recommend Allan if you are looking for a different kind of entertainment for your wedding.elaine scarry4/30/2025
- We had Allan at our wedding reception at the start of April and he was absolutely fantastic. He was so easy to deal with in the run up to the wedding also, totally fuss free! Our guests all loved him and commented how unique he was and his amazing caricatures created a buzz around the reception. He had people queuing up for him and he was kind enough to stay behind for a couple of extra minutes to do a caricature for my young cousin. I couldn’t recommend Allan enough, him and his caricatures added such a personal touch to our special day! He really was amazing!Dana Kelly4/29/2025Book this man quick! We had Allen for our wedding reception in Belmullet back in December. Definitely one of the best vendors we booked. So professional, easy to communicate with and a genuinely lovely person. Ideal for the couple who want something different but memorableThe guests loved the experience of having something so different to pass the time before dinner…and had a beautiful drawing as a keepsake. Everyone commented on how life like the drawings were. Really enhanced the atmosphere of an amazing dayTen out of ten ⭐Annette Noone4/21/2025I booked Allan for a gift for my Sister and her Husband for theire Ruby Wedding Anniversary.
When I arrived on Thursday morning so carefully wrapped & packaged by courier, I was thrilled with the result and couldn’t wait to show it to my family who were all blown away!
We gave it to them last night at a surprise party and they were absolutely delighted! My Sister immediately took down an old painting and hung the caricature in its place prominently in the kitchen. She says it will make her smile every day! So thank you Allan. Delighted!Geraldine O'Neill4/13/2025 - We booked Allan for our wedding on 21st March.

- We booked Allan to do Caricatures for our wedding's drinks reception and we were delighted with our choice. He brought something different that all of our guests got to enjoy, and a keepsake to remember the day. What I didn't realise before booking was how much enjoyment guests who were just observing would get as they see the caricatures brought to life. Would highly recommend Allan, he was a pleasure to deal with throughout!Mark Earlie12/03/2024We booked Allan for our wedding reception on the 15th November.
