WEDDING MAGICIAN

About magic for weddings

Weddings are times for celebrating. Great, we've agreed on one thing. Do you find it strange then that some couples push wedding entertainment right down their list of priorities? I do.

I've planned a wedding, so I know that it's difficult to balance everything, but one thing I also know is that weddings can be a long day. There are moments when people are waiting around. The secret is that you don't want people to feel like they are just waiting for the next thing to happen.

If I could give you one tip, from my experience of performing at over 600 + weddings and planning one, it's this... Don't think of entertainment as only an evening thing. Instead fill your whole day with entertainment and suddenly the day itself becomes one huge celebration.

That's what I offer. As a professional wedding magician I'll transform your wedding in to the celebration of the year!

Imagine your wedding filling with the sound of shocked gasps, squeals of laughter and the background chatter of,

"how did he do that?"

and "you have to show that one to my brother!"

I perform a style of slick contemporary close up magic that has to be seen to be believed! And when your guests do see it, it will spark stories and memories you'll be sharing for years to come.

"A friendly, interactive gent who oozed confidence and impressed even the most skeptical of our guests. Ed brought our wedding to life!"

I arranged for Ed to provide entertainment at our daughter’s wedding. Absolutely spot on. He made sure he engaged with every table, and the constant howls of surprise and delight made for a really great atmosphere after the main dining. Everyone really enjoyed it and said what a fantastic addition to the whole event it was. Thanks, Ed !

Just hired Ed for a family party in Nantwich and he was awesome! I was very clear about what I wanted at the event and Ed delivered. Entertaining the little ones with balloon modelling and magic (sorry Ed - didn't think the balloon requests would ever end at one point!) and then walking around performing table magic for all the other guests. Feedback has been brilliant, with everyone impressed with the magic and feeling like they'd been entertained with some amazing tricks! And in terms of booking Ed - easy to communicate with, friendly, punctual and very accommodating. It was a great night, everyone had fun. Thanks Ed!!

WEDDING BREAKFAST

Close up magic during the wedding breakfast needs a little more careful management. Remember food is being served, and guests are eating. It's vital that any entertainment doesn't interrupt the regular flow of things, and often I recommend magic slightly before, or during desserts and coffee. The best option though is to have a quick chat, and we'll sort something out together.

TURNOVER & EVENING RECEPTION

There's usually a natural dip during the afternoon, often known as the turnover period. This is the perfect time for close up magic. It's a great way to welcome any new guests who are arriving, and start the evening reception in the right way, with incredible moments of amazement, and laughing along with friends and family.

WEDDING MAGICIAN REVIEWS

We would really like to thank you for your amazing addition to our daughter’s wedding. We were particularly impressed with the way you handled the heckler! Our evening was enhanced with your jovial banter, and amazing magic! A special thanks also for your flexibility over the many start/end time changes.

Ed recently performed at our wedding and he was absolutely fantastic! All of our guests loved his magic, he took extra time to make sure we got to experience his magic too. Ed was very professional and communication with him was very easy. Ed was the perfect addition to our wedding, and we would 100% recommend him.

Emma Flanagan, Shrewsbury

Ed was professional and communicated frequently prior to the day, he was punctual, friendly, funny and most importantly extremely entertaining. We are very grateful to Ed and will be recommending him highly to all of our friends!

Quick tip: Choosing wedding suppliers is such a personal thing, especially with a wedding magician, who will meet all of your guests. Make sure you talk to them on the phone, or through a video call before deciding to book.

ROWTON CASTLE WEDDING MAGICIAN

Close up wedding magician case study

As you might expect I perform as a close up magician at lots of weddings and events close to where I'm based in Birmingham, Nottingham and Shropshire. I also perform my magic across the UK, and even a handful of events internationally too.

However there's one wedding venue that I always enjoy returning to, and that's Rowton Castle in Shrewsbury. Over the years I've performed at several weddings there, and each year I'm there two or three times to provide magic for couples celebrating there. I've found the staff their to be highly professional, welcoming and friendly, not only to visiting guests but also to the suppliers, like me, too. That's so important as it makes my job easier, and less stressful which in turn results in a better performance.

Of course, it always goes down a storm with the guests and I often receive feedback such as this:

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

But it seems, the high quality of service and entertainment that I provide has also caught the attention of the Rowton Castle Weddings Planning team, as I'm one of the recommended suppliers for this wedding venue.

If you're getting married, and are looking for a high quality professional wedding magician to wow your guests and bring your event to life, then do get in touch with me. And remember that hiring a magician, isn't just about the tricks they do, but also about how they interact with your wedding party. That's why my magic is performed in a very conversational manner. It's about making sure you and your guests (the most important people at a wedding!) are having a great time. I'll spark conversations, ignite laughter and leave your with incredible, impossible!! moments of magic. After all, these are the moments you'll look back on for many years to come.
