Lauren and Daniel's wedding 25/02/2012

Lauren and Daniel's plight made headlines around Christmas; they lost thousands of pounds when a wedding venue they had booked went into administration. All seemed lost but then, thanks to the amazing efforts of Stephanie Allison of Bristol Wedding News, a massive appeal went out to dozens of local suppliers to save the day and sure enough, within a short time, not only a venue but an entire roster of entertainers had rallied around.

For my part, besides sympathy for the plight of the bride and groom to be, I understood immediately the promotional potential of providing a few hours of live caricature entertainment for free so when I was approached, I grabbed the chance with both hands!

I went along for 2 or 3 hours in the evening. The party was a great success with loads going on and a very happy crowd which kept me busy the whole time. It was all great fun.

Thanks for asking me along Lauren and Daniel and al the best wishes for the future!

As for myself, I wouldn't like to say but I am sure someone out there could stitch me up proper!
