Top reasons to book a Magician for your Wedding Reception

1. A good Magician will have your guests laughing and gasping in amazement all day long

For an amazing wedding reception you want to keep dropping surprises in for your guests, so they keep wondering what on earth is going to happen next! Providing a Close up Magician at your wedding reception means that your Magician will be mixing with your guests throughout the day performing mini magic shows to everyone, some people will laugh, some will gasp, but I guarantee all will be amazed. It’s just a great way to keep your guests amused during the photos / drinks reception and adds some great excitement to the wedding breakfast.

2. Magicians create great photo opportunities

Whilst your wedding photos are going to be amazing, having a Magician performing during your wedding reception means your photographer is going to have some opportunities to capture some of your guests in total amazement.

3. Magic provides a great conversation starter

Some of your wedding guests might not have met before and you are bringing together two families which apart from your wedding do not have that much in common. By hiring a Magician for your wedding once they have performed to a small group it certainly provides a great conversation starter and helps relax your guests.

4. Table Magic during the wedding breakfast

The wedding breakfast has so many opportunities for magic as your guests are waiting for tables to be cleared and between courses. I would typically not perform magic during the main course but there is usually so much time where a skilled Table Magician can add some amazing entertainment during the wedding breakfast.

Frequently asked questions

Should I have a Magician at my Wedding?

This all depends on if you like magic or not. If you love Close up Magic and want your guests to experience it to a Magician is the perfect choice for your wedding reception. They can mingle between groups of guests during the photos, perform amazing table magic during the wedding breakfast and then provide some more amazing magic for your evening guests. You don’t have to have all of that, some couples just opt for a drinks reception or wedding breakfast performance. If you are having a lot of guests and want your wedding entertainment to stand out then I would suggest that you do need a magician. The other major benefit with a Magician is they provide family friendly entertainment, perfect for all ages and all group sizes, they can perform to 2 children or 30 adults, magic is so flexible and a great ice-breaker.
