Caricature theme - wedding @ McDonald's Drive-Thru

Client's brief:-
"Hi Jit,
You must have heard this only about a million times- I do find the need to say it still- You are amazingly talented!
I hope to seek some clarifications on my impending order.

The intention is to keep it short and precise- so that I don't waste your time- My apologies if I fail terribly at it ;-p.

Instead of a wedded couple photo - taken against the backdrop of One Fullerton or Botanic Gardens or Sentosa, etc- I am opting for a caricature to be placed on the reception table for my wedding. Well, mother-in-law thinks its inappropriate to take pictures together before the solemnization! (I'm still scratching my head over that one!) Sorry! Major digression... Anyhow, you provided an outlet for my woes.. A caricature! hee.. ;-).......

I also have an idea of doing another caricature .. a simple drawing of us thanking our guests .. this one will be placed on each individual guest table, with our personal penned thank you note. Now this is where I need your help .. linking back to the ... burn on cd .. Can I reprint caricature no.2 with that soft copy you provide (in this case .. A4 size high resolution scanning + burn on cd). for the 15 or so tables @ my wedding?.....


I emailed you about 2 weeks back- haven't gotten a reply ;-(.
Anyhow, I've decided to go ahead with my order :-). love Love LOVE your work!
The caricature I have in mind is as follows..
(Quite similar to an earlier drawing you've done.)
Type: Caricature in marker with theme (A3 size)
Scenario: Bride and Groom standing by a Pearl-white Merc SL 500 (car1.jpg/car2.jpg) with the words HITCHED! written on the license plate. Groom carrying the bride.
Background: McDonald's Drive-Thru restaurant
The people:
1) Khairul (groom.jpg) in white tux and white sneakers (sneaker1.jpg).
Can you draw his hair longer and more floppy as in (groom2.jpg) please.
2) Me (bride.jpg/bride2.jpg) in white wedding gown (gown1.jpg) holding a bouquet of red roses.
Can you draw my hair long with big wavy curls at the end please."

Wedding couple caricatures at McDonald's Drive-Thru
I miised out her first email. Too many email enquiries (as well as spams) recently.
Luckily, she didn't give up, and dropped me another email.:)

McDonald's Drive-Thru. I draw it out based on the drive-thru opposite my house, but a simplified version.
Response from her husband, upon his collection:-
"Wow!!!!!"

SMS from the client:-
"Hi Jit,
love Love LOVE the drawings! It's perfect. It's what I wanted - everything & more. Thanks :-)"
