JellyBean Party
Publishes live A4 black-and-white caricatures at S$180/hour, with photo-based digital portraits separately priced.
Confirm style/size, actual artist count and time, sleeves/prints/files, estimated throughput, setup/transport, tax, overtime and cancellation; no portrait for every guest is promised.
PartyAllo
Publishes live caricature hire at S$150 first hour/S$130 subsequent hour and requests one table/three chairs.
Confirm artist, drawing format, hired hours, furniture, guest/face expectations, setup, transport, tax, overtime and cancellation; estimates are not an all-guests completion guarantee.
Plan the queue and drawing time
For one artist drawing continuously for two hours, the published examples give different estimates for time and output.
JellyBean Party’s live caricature page estimates 12 to 15 black-and-white A4 portraits an hour and lists S$180 an hour with a sleeve for each drawing. Two hours works out to S$360 for roughly 24 to 30 portraits.
PartyAllo’s caricature page estimates 15 to 18 individual portraits an hour and lists S$150 for the first hour and S$130 for the next. Two hours works out to S$280 for roughly 30 to 36 portraits. PartyAllo asks for one table and three chairs.
These are examples before any extras. Ask each artist to quote the same drawing window, excluding breaks, and confirm the format, total charge and expected portrait count. If demand exceeds the estimate, agree on a queue cutoff or ask about another artist.
Choose by what you need
Specify live drawing versus portraits prepared from supplied photos, then agree style, size, guests and hired time. JellyBean Party publishes live black-and-white A4 caricatures at S$180/hour, and separately priced photo-based digital portraits. PartyAllo publishes S$150 for the first hour and S$130 for subsequent hours, with a table/chair requirement. Their estimated drawing rates are not guaranteed queue throughput. Compare staffing, guest/face count, paper/prints, digital rights, setup, transport, tax and overtime; a one-hour hire does not guarantee that every attendee receives a portrait.
