FAQs
Why should I book a magician for my wedding?
Wedding planners always highlight the importance of keeping guests engaged during the in-between bits, and a magician does just that.
Weddings can be long days, and if you don’t have anything going on, people start checking their watches, wondering when the food’s arriving or how long until the evening celebrations begin. Book me and I’ll guarantee there won’t be any noticeable lulls while I’m around.
What sets you apart from other magicians?
For several years now, I’ve exclusively performed at weddings, tailoring what I do to seamlessly fit the unique flow of a wedding day. I’m not just a magician, I’m a professional wedding magician.
It’s crucial to choose suppliers who are not only exceptionally good at what they do, but also fit in with your closest friends and family. A great entertainer knows how to make everyone feel at ease, never awkward or uncomfortable.
It’s my job to get to know your guests’ personalities, bring them all closer together, and keep your celebrations flowing smoothly, making sure everyone is having the time of their lives!

Don’t settle for anything – your wedding deserves the best.
How far in advance should we book you for our wedding?
I only accept a limited number of bookings each year. Once you’ve nailed down your date and venue, I recommend booking as far ahead as you can to guarantee availability, particularly for sought-after dates during peak wedding seasons.
Some people book a year or two in advance, others chance it at 6 months or so, but I hate having to break the news to couples that I’m already booked, especially if they enquired months before but never saved their date. So don’t leave it too late!
Does it matter how many guests we have at our wedding?
I’ve got plenty of experience performing at weddings of all sizes, from intimate gatherings of 30 or less to large celebrations with hundreds of guests. No matter the crowd, together we will make sure everyone has the best experience.
Can you entertain guests of all ages, including children and elderly relatives?
My magic routines are mostly geared towards adults, but I’ve got more than enough tricks up my sleeve to make sure the entertainment I provide appeals to guests of all ages, from the little ones to your more experienced guests and everyone in between.
How long will you be with us?
Your plans and choice of my wedding magic packages will shape how I will enhance your day. Whichever option you choose, I’ll be there as long as I’m needed to ensure everything flows perfectly.
For the ultimate experience and seamless coverage, I recommend the full package. It guarantees your day unfolds effortlessly from start to finish, allowing you to relax and fully enjoy your celebration without any added stress.
What happens if our wedding runs behind schedule?
Weddings can be unpredictable, and sometimes things don’t go according to plan. We do just the right amount of planning beforehand, so if things do run a bit late, I can adjust my performances to fit seamlessly into your day.
Your happiness is my top priority, I’ll be there to make sure everything goes smoothly so you can relax and enjoy your day.
What if we've already booked other hosts or entertainers for our wedding?
I’m all about teamwork, and I’ve worked with every kind of wedding supplier you can imagine.
Whether I’m adding something more interactive for your guests alongside background singers or musicians, or I’m teaming up with someone you’ve chosen to host your day, you can count on me to work seamlessly with your other suppliers to enhance the overall impact of your wedding entertainment and make it a day to remember for everyone.
Do you require any special equipment or setup at the venue?
Whether it’s walk-around magic, close-up magic at tables or a stand-up performance in front of everyone, you don’t have to worry about a thing!
I’ll work with your venue coordinators beforehand, and on the day, to ensure everything is set up, leaving you free to enjoy every second.
