"Thank You for the Magic.... It put the finishing touch on a Great Day..."

"Just a quick note to say a big thank you for the magic at the wedding on Saturday. Absolutely superb and had everyone was talking about it for the rest of the night and beyond. It put the finishing touch on a great day making it that extra bit special and one we'll never forget.

Wedding Magic

Wedding Entertainment helps to create a wonderful celebratory atmosphere that is memorable for everyone, and Close Up Magic is not only sophisticated and highly entertaining, it's also a right laugh!!

I know there are loads of costs associated with a wedding, and you have to ensure that the services you invest in will add to its enjoyment for yourself and your guests.

I firmly believe that Magic performed by the right entertainer can really help to bring your big day to life and make it massively different from a standard wedding, and it's your way of thanking all of your guests for coming and creating a day that you and your guests, will never forget.

So when should you have Close Up Magic?

The Wedding Breakfast

If you were to only have a Wedding Magician during one period of your big day, I would definitely recommend this.

As your Wedding Magician I will make sure that your guests have as perfect a day as you do, by astounding them during the wedding meal, with an exclusive show of Award Winning, Table Magic that will leave them stunned.

I work around the waitering staff to ensure that no-one is sat bored, warming them up for when the speeches start, then I hand them over to you!!

Normal Duration 2 hours

During the Photographs

If there is natural lull in proceedings, such as during the photographs, then Walk Around Magic can add a real sparkle and keep guests entertained while you're relaxing (and posing) in front of the camera.

This works well because it prepares the guests to expect magic later as well, and it lets them know that you are considering their enjoyment as well as your own.

Normal Duration 1 hour

The Night Do

And as the evening gets under way, Ice Breaking Magic can then get everything going with a bang before Granny starts to bust some moves out on the dance floor.

The evening allows me to work some different types of magic which I consider to be a bit funkier, and off the wall.

This works up until the music starts and the lights go down. Then I Foxtrot Oscar!!

Normal Duration 1 hour

What Happens Now?

Having recently got married myself, I fully understand how stressful the run up to the big day can be, and so I make the process from enquiry through to performance an enjoyable one.
