He was very professional before the event and everyone was thoroughly entertained by his close magic and the larger scale audience participation tricks.

We invited Ed to join us at our wedding reception to entertain our guests during / after the meal. Lots of guests were chatting about his tricks the next day. We loved the one he did for us and have absolutely no idea how he managed it! Ed is relaxed but professional, friendly and fun. Thank you for sprinkling some magic on our day Rach & Mick

Ed was fabulous, what a fantastic magic show this was the perfect entertainment for my 50th Birthday and left us scratching our heads on how he did some of the tricks as we couldn’t work it out, and we were really impressed, and still talking about it later into the night and after my birthday too. I would definitely recommend and book Ed again and he was very professional, fabulous magic tricks and great communication and early to the event to prepare. I won’t mention what tricks he did as I won’t spoil the surprise but we all loved it. Thanks Ed 🤩🥰👍

I saw Ed last weekend he was booked for a family wedding. Nearly a week later and I’m still speechless, he was amazing best magician I’ve ever seen! He caters to all age groups, so entertaining.

SHREWSBURY MAGICIAN OPTIONS

WEDDING MAGIC

A magician at a wedding brings the day to life and turns it into the celebration it should be. I should know! I've performed at over six hundred weddings across the UK.

Don't just think of entertainment as something for the evening only. It's important to make sure your guests don't feel like they are just waiting around for the next thing to happen.

Walkaround close up magic is the solution to that. It's fantastic as it engages guests in a way that other forms of entertainment can't replicate.

ps. Of all the wedding venues I've performed magic at, some of my favourites are in Shropshire. They include:

Rowton Castle, Halfway House (where the video above was shot)

Albrighton Hall, Shrewsbury

Hawkstone Hall near Hodnet, Shrophshire

SHREWSBURY MAGICIAN REVIEWS

The way you were able to entertain adults, children, individually or as one whole group was just brilliant, and we were all amazed that we couldn’t figure it out. Everyone has said its a party they will talk about for years to come!

Phillipa Pope, Shrewsbury

Ed recently performed at my sister’s wedding at Rowton Castle. Everybody enjoyed his magic. He brought humour to what he was doing. The professional manner in which he took the booking and ensured he knew exactly what was required was a credit to him. I have no hesitation in recommending him to anybody who is looking for a solid professional.

Jeremy Haigh, Shrewsbury

Just wanted to leave a quick note to say how brilliant the magic was at my cousins wedding. You performed a few tricks for me and and my sister quite simply you left her speechless. I have a few friends getting married soon. I will be fully recommending you, and I really hope one of them books you.

SHREWSBURY COMEDY MAGICIAN

Shrewsbury magician case study

A friend asked me a difficult question recently. I was talking about how I had written about some of the shows that stuck out to me, and if you take a look at some of my other location pages, you’ll see I’ve followed a similar pattern there. I really have performed a lot of magic right across the UK.

But the question he asked was different. He asked me, is there one single person that has stood out from all of the people I’ve met?

There is, and I love this story. It happened in December 2015 at the Peach Tree Restaurant, 18-21, Abbey Foregate, Shrewsbury. The event was a party for a charitable organisation and I was asked to perform close up magic table to table during their Christmas party lunch and then finish with a short show to the whole group.

Everything went well that afternoon and at the end of one routine, one guest turned to the host and said, “He's really great! Where did you find him!?” What a compliment!

But then, I invited a young woman to help with one of the routines. She kept turning away and covering her face and I thought she might have been a little nervous about helping out.

I'm always keen that any volunteers are comfortable on stage, and so I asked her if she was ok, and she said, “Yes, you just make me laugh so much!” When I spoke to her afterwards she said, that we must have just had exactly the same sense of humour.

Well, this is music to my ears. Often people say my magic is impressive or that they don’t know how it works, but when someone connects with me and my personality well that’s the ultimate compliment. After all, (and this is something I am always telling the magicians I mentor), people are more interested in people than things! You might have heard it as this, people won’t remember what you said or did, but they will remember how you made them feel!

That's what I aim for with all of my magic. Yes, I perform magic, but ultimately I'm there to provide you with the stories and the memories of spending time with your friends and family.

Here's the review the client left after the show:

Absolutely Incredible! Thank you so much for last week. It was so great that you could join our Christmas celebration. I know my guests enjoyed your performance as you were the talking point for the rest of the day. We’ve got no idea how you did it!
