Summer Wedding – 7 Reasons Custom Caricatures are Perfect Entertainment

There is nothing quite like a summer wedding! It is always a special and memorable occasion for everyone involved. Whether you’re the bride, groom, or guest, there’s something magical about celebrating love in the warm, sunny months of the year. But what makes a summer wedding genuinely unforgettable? The answer is simple: great entertainment! And if you’re looking for something unique and memorable, Goofy Faces is the perfect addition to your big day. And below are just a few reasons why Goofy Faces must receive an invite to your wedding this summer:

7 Reasons Custom Caricatures are the Best Entertainment for 2023 Summer Weddings Our artists are interactive

All Goofy Faces artists are incredibly interactive. Guests can watch as our artists create their portraits within a matter of minutes. We even offer the flexibility for the newlyweds to jump in and get their caricatures done at any point during the reception, allowing them to quickly return to mingling with guests. 

A great icebreaker

Weddings often bring together people from different social circles and backgrounds. Hiring Goofy Faces is a great way to break the ice and encourage conversation between guests. As guests watch the artist draw each other’s portraits, they’ll have something to talk about and bond over.

Entertaining for all ages

Goofy Faces artists are an entertaining option for guests of all ages, from young children to grandparents. Watching the artist’s work is a show in itself and the finished product is always a hit. It’s a form of entertainment that doesn’t require any special knowledge or skill, making it accessible to everyone.

They’re customizable

Caricature artists can tailor their work to fit the theme or style of your wedding. For example, if you’re having a beach wedding, the artist could draw guests with surfboards or beach hats. If you’re having a rustic, country wedding, the artist could incorporate cowboy hats or boots into the portraits. The possibilities are endless, and the artist can work with you to create a unique and personalized experience for your guests.

A unique and memorable keepsake

While traditional wedding favors like candy or photo booth prints are nice, they can easily be forgotten or discarded. A custom portrait, on the other hand, is a unique and memorable keepsake that guests are likely to hold onto for years to come. It’s a one-of-a-kind piece of art that they can display in their home or office, reminding them of the fun they had at your wedding. In addition, each caricature comes with a complimentary bag to ensure their protection. And for a nominal fee, we also offer the option to personalize the paper with the newlyweds’ names and wedding date preprinted on each sheet.

Works well with any wedding schedule

Our artists can work well with any wedding schedule, whether you want them available during the cocktail hour or reception, or even throughout the entire event. Guests can watch as the artist creates their portrait while celebrating!

Booking is easy peasy

Whether you’re booking in advance or last minute, Goofy Faces makes booking easy for all by visiting our website. With over 500 artists located throughout the United States, we are ecstatic to be a part of your big day.

So if you’re looking for a one-of-a-kind, memorable form of entertainment for your summer wedding, hiring Goofy Faces is the answer! Not only will your guests be entertained and engaged, but they’ll also leave with a unique keepsake to remember your special day for years to come.

It’s also proven that digital caricatures help attract foot traffic and generate interest & excitement at a trade show booth too. So what exactly is a digital caricature and how does it work? Let the experts at Goofy Faces tell you!

These digital drawings are created in real-time on a digital tablet like an iPad. Digital caricatures are saved, printed, and shared instantly with each trade show guest.

Digital Caricatures at Tradeshows How exactly does having a caricature artist in a trade show booth increase foot traffic and generate interest in your booth?

  1. Creates an engaging and interactive experience for visitors. Guests can watch the artist create their caricature in real time. This allows them to see the artist’s process and techniques, making the experience more engaging and interactive. This can add to the excitement and anticipation as the guests can see their final image coming to life.

The hardware used for digital caricatures includes a digital tablet or iPad, a stylus, and a computer or other device to process the image. These tablets have high-resolution screens and pressure-sensitive styli that mimic the feel of drawing with a pen or pencil which allows artists to make adjustments as they draw.

The software used for digital caricatures is specialized drawing software that is designed for digital tablets. These software programs offer a wide range of tools and brushes that mimic traditional art materials, such as pens, pencils, markers, and paint.

The artist can also add color, texture, and other effects digitally, similar to traditional mediums. Another benefit of digital caricatures is that the artist can make changes and corrections quickly and easily without having to start over. This allows for a high degree of precision and flexibility in the creation process.

Tradeshow Booth Planning – 3 Easy Steps

Tradeshow Booth Planning – 3 Easy Steps

Planning for your Upcoming Tradeshow!Tradeshow season is just around the corner. There are many benefits to a business having a booth. It is a great way to showcase a company’s credibility, talents, and expand its reach. When planning for the show, it’s important to keep the following statistics in mind:

  • 46% of attendees are executives or upper management
  • 82% of attendees have buying power 
  • Attendees will tell more than six people about their experience
  • The #1 goal for attending is to find new products

Keeping all of that in mind, how does a business create a standout booth to engage the best of the best? Don’t worry! Goofy Faces is here to help you make a plan!

Step One: The early planning process

Most planning for tradeshows begins six to nine months before. Make sure to take time to determine what your budget, goals, and objectives are. Then do the research to find the right tradeshow for your company to attend. Click here to begin your search. 

Step Two: The design process

Once you’ve chosen the right tradeshow to attend for your business, there is a lot to consider. 

Determine booth design. Make sure to consider everything from the guest’s perspective: lighting, open space, color palette, seating and meeting options, etc.

Choosing the right size booth. The average booth size is 10×10. But this might not work for the design and layout you’re planning. Take the time to map everything out and remember attendees will take up roughly 50% of the booth’s footprint. 

Step Three: Creating the experience

Remember you’re creating an experience for your attendees from the moment they step foot in your booth. But how exactly does a business do this?

Build the hype before you go. Let your colleagues, customers, and suppliers know where you’re headed. Maybe even give them a sneak peek of what they might see. This can be done via a newsletter, social media, company blog, email, etc. 

Determine team roles. Before you leave for the tradeshow, make sure everyone on the team is on the same page about goals and objectives. Assign everyone a specific role and make sure they stick to it for the duration of the event. Role examples are crowd gatherers, hosts, presenters, technical staff, and sales staff.

Find the right promotional items. They will help your company stand out and make your logo more recognizable. Need help choosing the right item? Click here to see what’s trending.

  • Drinks
  • Staff
  • Invitations
  • Entertainment
  • Permits (only if the location needs them)
  • Clean up costs

Step 3: Determine the date

Choosing a date for your party might seem like a very daunting task especially since there are 365 days to choose from. But it’s actually much easier than you might think! Here are a few things to consider when deciding what date to host:

  • Know your guest list
  • Skip popular vacation times
  • Consider the holidays (don’t forget bank holidays)
  • Think about potential weather and climate changes
  • Talk with your vendors and venues about availability 

Step 4: Pick a location 

It is never too early to begin searching for your event venue. Always consider the following:

  • Location
  • Parking
  • Capacity 
  • Venue Layout
  • Venues services and amenities 

If you are concerned it’s too late to find a venue, don’t be. Venues always have last minute openings, changes, or cancellations. 

Step 5: Create a guest list

Remember to always keep a few things in mind like budget and venue capacities. But for an event like a wedding, a good rule of thumb is to invite immediate family members (parents, grandparents, siblings, uncles, aunts, and cousins), close friends, and significant others.

Step 6: Choose a theme

If your event allows for it, pick a theme. Click here for 65 ideas!

Step 7: Send invites to guests

It is best to send party invitations three weeks before parties like birthdays and general celebrations. But it is recommended to send invitations six to eight weeks for large events and weddings. 

Step 8: Shop for decor 

There is no better place to look for party decor inspiration than here! But when it comes time to shop, make sure to remember to stick to your predetermined budget. Do not forget to shop around for items that are on sale.

Step 9: Determine the food and drink menu  

Pro tip: An adult will consume roughly one pound of food total and children will consume about a 1/2 pound. The more options you have the less you need of each. Don’t forget guests always eat and drink more in the evening than during the day. 

If you’re struggling to determine the type of food and drinks to serve, check out Pinterest! They always have the best ideas.

Employee Appreciation in 2022 Goofy Faces Style

The past several years have been filled with many challenges in the workplace. One of the most newsworthy topics and frequently used buzzwords has been the Great Resignation. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, in 2021 over 47 million Americans voluntarily quit their jobs. In 2022 the Great Resignation shows no signs of slowing down either…In January alone, 4.3 million Americans voluntarily quit their jobs. So, how do employers slow or even stop this trend? Here are a few ways to show your employees they are important to you and your company!

It might sound silly, or maybe you don’t feel like there are enough hours in the day, to put thought into how you’ll thank your team for their hard work and dedication. But showing your team you appreciate them matters. According to Forbes, there are three important reasons:

  1. Recognized employees are happy employees
  2. Appreciated leaders show appreciation to their employees
  3. When employees feel recognized, they stick around

Showing your team that you appreciate them can be done simply or elaborately. A simple thank you card, email, or phone call can go a long way. Going the extra mile can be celebrating a birthday, career milestone, or anniversary. Or you can work with your Human Resources Department to create a rewards system.

Goofy Faces Employee Appreciation Tip: Goofy Faces offers many different caricature packages that you can custom order right here. Whether you want a gift caricature for a colleague, your entire team, or to celebrate retirement, Goofy Faces has the perfect caricature for you.

As a team leader or Human Resources Department member, you should consider hosting at least one team-building opportunity per year.

Unforgettable Wedding Entertainment in 2022

Remember when planning a wedding felt relatively easy? It was about getting engaged, following a checklist that included every possible detail, and then it was a celebration before heading off on a tropical honeymoon! If you need a reference, look at any Hollywood classic like Father of the Bride.

Who doesn’t love accent walls, big parties, hanging florals, and weekend-long celebrations?

“Our artist Stephanie arrived early to set up. Once she was set up, the guests at my wedding flocked to have their pictures drawn. Stephanie drew quickly and beautifully. She was upbeat, positive, and obviously loves what she does. She communicated with our guests as she drew them. Our guests walked through the reception showing each other their pictures and encouraging others to have their portraits done. She also gained a crowd of spectators even after their portraits were complete. This was a huge hit! We will call Goofy Faces for future events! So fun!!!” -Kelly S.
