What does a wedding magician do?

When is the best time for a magician to perform at a wedding?
The beauty of a magician is their flexibility. They can slot into different parts of your day depending on your specific needs. Some popular times include:
Drinks reception: This is the perfect time for a magician to mingle with guests, performing an array of close-up magic, including captivating card tricks, mind-reading feats, and even digital magic, all designed to break the ice and ignite conversation.
Wedding breakfast: A table magician can move from table to table, performing card tricks, coin tricks and sleight-of-hand illusions as your guests enjoy their meal.
Evening reception: As new guests join the celebration, a magician can provide a captivating stage magic show, igniting the room with grand illusions, interactive mind-reading acts, and even astonishing feats of escapology.
Remember, every wedding is unique, and your magician can work with you to determine the best timing for their performance.
Are your wedding magicians suitable for all age groups?
Absolutely! With a set of universal tricks that transcend language and age barriers, our magicians ensure everyone from children to grandparents are entertained. With years of experience in the wedding industry, our wedding magicians are more than happy to tailor their performance to your event.
How long does a wedding magician typically perform for?
The length of a professional magician's performance can vary based on your specific needs and the flow of your event. However, a typical close-up magic performance lasts between 1 to 2 hours. This allows the magician to circulate among all your guests, ensuring everyone gets a chance to experience the magic up close.
If you're opting for a stage performance, these typically last anywhere from 30 minutes to an hour, delivering a concentrated dose of magic to all your guests at once.
It's important to note that these timings are flexible and can be adjusted based on your event's schedule. Some couples choose to have the magician perform during the cocktail hour, while others prefer to have them entertain guests during the meal or the evening reception. Discussing your event schedule with your magician will ensure their performance perfectly fits into your special day.
How far in advance should I book a wedding magician?
As a general rule of thumb, it's a good idea to start looking at least six months before your wedding. However, if your wedding date is flexible or during off-peak season, you might have more options closer to the date.
What do magicians usually wear to a wedding?
A wedding magician will dress appropriately for the style of your event. This can range from a full tuxedo for black-tie weddings to smart-casual attire for less formal celebrations. The key is for the magician to blend in with your guests while still standing out enough to be identifiable as the entertainer.
If you have a specific dress code or theme for your wedding, most magicians are happy to accommodate this. It's always a good idea to discuss this with the magician ahead of time to ensure they align with your expectations.
