Hi Roger,

Thank you so much for your wonderful magic displays at our wedding.  We had such a fabulous day and during our drinks garden party before the main reception your magic tricks worked so well with all our guests.  So many people commented afterwards, adults and children, how much they loved being entertained by you.  James and I were pretty amazed by the tricks you displayed on us!  We’re so glad we decided to hire you and would certainly recommend you.

Linda & James,

It is always nice when couples feedback like this and makes me feel great to know that I have done a good job.

I am awaiting some photos and will put them up when they arrive.

If you are planning your wedding and are looking for a great wedding photographer in hampshire
where do you look?

Wedding shows are full of photographers selling their services but at the wedding
shows i have been at it is just overload. Most of the times there are at least 5 photographers there!

Personal recommendation is always best.

I have met quite a few, and their work varies from the formal posed shots to the extreme.

If you are looking for a great wedding photographer in Hampshire I would like to point you to
Geoff Roberts at Amazing Weddings.

He has had pictures featured in Cosmo Bride and has a very relaxed informal style of photography.

The picture on this post was one of his Cosmo Bride shots!

Head over to his website and have a look at the gallery to see what I am talking about.

This weekend I was invited to a very good friends wedding who I have known since she was a very young girl. The wedding was in Cornwall and i was asked as i often am now to bring along a few tricks.

It was a great chance to catch up with some old friends and I did perform some magic which did go down very well. The reception was held at the Guildhouse in Poundstock  www.poundstockgildhouse.co.uk

This is a very unique venue in the grounds of a church.

Luckily the weather held off and i spent the whole evening outside. I got chance to try out a few new routines i have been working on which is always good.

I would like to wish Katie & Chris all the best for the future.

Magician for Hire Southampton

You need to go along to Madam Jo Jo’s

Exerprt from their website:

MAGIC NIGHT, a cutting edge cabaret at Madame JoJo’s, with Sorcery, Comedy, Music and Physically impossible feats. This is a magic show but not as you know it, forget rabbits n hats, think turning water into wine and raising the dead and then you’re on track.

The next show is the 3rd September

Might see you there.

We are not talking about a few friends round for some drinks and a curry, I am taking a big party, like a 40th, 50th birthday party. Where you go all out and invite more friends than you knew you had.

I was at an event at the weekend a 50th birthday party, over 150 guests, Hog Roast, Band, Fire Eaters and 2 magicians!

It was a great night.

So if you are planning a party in the next few months and are scratching your head on the entertainment side how about a Magician.

Close up Magicians are great for parties as they appeal to all age groups. From the youngest to the oldest – everyone enjoys a magic trick.

I would say that I could perform to one person but to be honest you really want at least 20 guests for an hour of close up magic. And then anything up to 100 after that you will be needing 2 magicians to ensure everyone gets to see some magic.

Another great time for Magicians is as a Christmas Party Magican

I will put another post up about this soon

Enjoy the sun

One of the worlds largest Magic Conventions takes place every February in Blackpool.
Over 3,500 magicians descend upon the b&b’s of Blackpool to meet dealers from around the world, lectures, workshops and to catch up with old friends.

In 2012 Blackpool Magicians Convention will be hosting the 25th world championships of magic organised by FISM.

FISM stands for Fédération Internationale des Sociétés Magiques it is the pinnacle of any magicians career to enter and win FISM it is like the olympics of magic.

In 2011 the Blackpool Magicians Club host the inaugural FISM  European Championships of Magic in Blackpool.

This is a first for Blackpool and tickets are selling out fast.

If you are a young magician who has never been to Blackpool you must go.

Once you have been once you can’t stop, for me it just keeps getting better and better, every year you meet new friends and contacts and it is a great social weekend.

If your other half is not a magician but wants to come along they have shows every night which they can attend culminating in a Sunday night gala show which is amazing. World class stage magic performed by entertainers from around the world.

For more information on the Blackpool Magicians Convention. You can visit the Blackpool magicians club website here: www.blackpoolmagic.com

Roger Lapin is one of the finest Magicians in Hampshire and is available to hire for any event across the south of England.

There is no such thing as a Magician for Hire shop so when you are planning your next big ball, party, wedding or product launch and you would like to book a few magicians where do you go?

Hiring a Magician is not something you do every day and most people don’t actually know any magicians.

The best place to find professional magicians is on the good old internet.

Type in what sort of magician you are looking for i.e Corporate Magician, Table Magician, Trade Show Magician or Wedding Magician and then follow the search with your town or county

So to find a magician for your wedding which you are having in the New Forest in Hampshire,
simply google ‘Wedding Magician Hampshire’

You will get a whole list come up and then working from the top you can click onto their websites (most magicians now have very good websites with photos and videos of them performing so you can get a good idea of what they are like)

Pick one you like the look of and contact them.

Ask them how long they have been a magician, is it their full time job – do they just do it at weekends.

Get some qoutes and then make your decision.

It should be quite painless as we are all very nice people!

So if you are looking for Magicians for Hire – google is your friend.

It is not often you get chance to work with other magicians but tonight I had to entertain 450 guests. Three Magicians were required!

Two good friends of mine Tony Hymans and Steve Charrett two very good magicians helped me for the night and it was great to work alongside them as most jobs usually have less than 100 guests.

There was some reception Magic and then some Table Magic, everyone was amazed.

The event took place at Southampton Guildhall in Hampshire which was a great venue.
