Always wanted Barrie at my wedding from the moment we booked and I would recommend him to everyone. Thanks Barrie!!-

Engagement party
We had Barrie. at our engagement party and he was absolutely fantastic from start to finish. He was so friendly and approachable, made everyone feel comfortable, and really engaged with all of our guests throughout the evening. His energy added such a fun atmosphere to the party, and people were constantly laughing and gathering around to watch the drawings come to life.
The caricatures themselves were brilliant — quick, creative, and incredibly well done. Guests loved having something personal and memorable to take home, and so many people commented afterwards on how talented he was. He interacted so well with everyone and genuinely became part of the entertainment for the night.
We couldn’t have asked for a better addition to our engagement party and would highly recommend him for any event! -

Great fun!
As soon as I saw Barrie tagged in an Instagram post from our venue I knew we had to book him! Our guests loved the experience and Barrie made the time between the ceremony and wedding meal so fun for everyone. I'd definitely recommend to anyone wanting something a little bit different to entertain their guests. -

Whatever you are planning for your wedding, book Barrie!!!! Don’t do the Temu favours, give everyone a laugh instead 💗
Barrie’s art is the most talked about part of my wedding, everyone absolutely loved the surprise and he was worth every penny! The only regret I have from my wedding is not booking all day with Barrie! We have a caricature to cherish forever and so do all our guests! He has a crowd around him when he is drawing and the laughter that roars from wherever he is, is truly beautiful! -

Barrie was absolutely incredible on our wedding day, both adults and kids loved it and our picture is sitting proudly on the book case. Barrie handled the long line of kids waiting to see him like a dream (20+) and made everyone laugh throughout the evening. Would 1000% recommend. -

Fantastic artist and entertainer
Barrie was absolutely fantastic, we were looking for something to keep our guests entertained at our evening wedding reception and Barrie james art definitely did that. The drawings were fantastic and he certainly knows how to entertain the crowd. We are so glad we paid for a longer time frame as it ensured that everyone who wanted a caricature got one, even though some got more than they bargined for. Would definitely recommend. Felt the price was good as well as its in line with what photobooths charge but you are getting a unique drawing so we were happy to ditch the booth idea for Barrie. He arrived right on time as arranged, would definitely recommend. -

Absolutely would recommend Barrie for any event, he brings humour, joy, and laughter to the day! My guests were so happy with this and our wedding photo was class! He’s such a lovely person generally as well and would do anything to make the day special. -
