How many Magicians do I need?

For most weddings, typically 60-130 guests one Magician is going to be enough to get around to everyone, however if your guests numbers are getting closer to 200 you might want to consider hiring a second Magician. I know and work with some of the very best Magicians in Dorset and can recommend or book them on your behalf.

For most weddings however I find that a longer performance through the day is enough to ensure everyone gets to see some magic.

When is the best time to hire a Magician for my wedding day?

This is very subjective and every wedding is different, but my advice is always this in the following order of popularity

• During the photos / drinks reception
• During the wedding breakfast
• Room turnaround
• Evening celebrations
• All 4!

Dorset Magician Reviews

We used Roger to provide close up magic around the tables during our Department Xmas Party.
I would have to say he is definitely one of the finest Christmas Magicians in the united kingdom we have ever seen and will be at the top of our list for our next Christmas party!
Our event was held on the day of the very heavy snow and I was concerned that Roger might not be able to get to us. However, despite grim road conditions, he was professional and didn’t let us down.

Everyone was amazed and thoroughly enjoyed watching his tricks (and trying to work out how he did it). Our party was a huge success and Roger had a large part to play in that!

I would have no hesitation in booking him again if we had the requirement at another function and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a magician.

Michele – Vodafone Christmas Party

Charity Event Magician – Parley Manor

We just wanted to thank you again for entertaining the guests last night.  You went down an absolute storm and they loved it!  Your magic was just fascinating and incredible and we were all quite honestly blown away – it really did add a further dimension to the evening and it was fun to hear the laughter, gasps of astonishment and spontaneous applause!  You certainly baffled even the most cynical guests who are probably still scratching their heads today (as are we!) as to how the lemon and apple appeared and how the deck of cards turned into a plastic box – utterly fabulous!  We could have sat and watched you all evening long if we hadn’t had our job to do!

Again, thanks for everything and we will definitely pass your details on to anyone looking for a magician.
