Wow wow wow!! Martin was better than we could have hoped. He mixed in with the guest perfectly and did so many amazing tricks. True magic that blew our minds. Martin also involved the children and got himself an assistant. We really can not thank Martin enough for making our day so special, and when I say day I mean all day and evening as he stayed and entertained our guests for hours! Thank you again Martin.

Martin came to my 16th (in Leap Year) birthday party. I can't praise him enough. He enhanced the whole day with his extraordinary skills. Lovely to be with, brilliant performer and he can clearly read and understand his audience. I highly recommend him for any sized event. He just fits in perfectly. Everyone loved him. Thank you Martin!
I had worked with Martin on a number of events in the past and when we booked our wedding I jumped at the chance to share his magic with our guests. He didn't disappoint. From the beginning of our wedding planning journey, he was professional and reassuring and couldn't do enough to help make our day especially magical. He definitely provided a service over and above - capturing additional moments on camera and assisting with the running of the day alongside his impressive skills as a magician. We are immensely grateful. See you at the many birthdays and anniversaries to come - the new Mr and Mrs Hampshire!
Martin was fantastic at our party and I was so pleased I booked him. He has a great manner with people. It was only a small event and he handled it brilliantly, circulating well and entertaining people without it becoming a big magic show. I can thoroughly recommend him, the magic is excellent and my guests loved it.

Martin turned up to our wedding promptly. We only had a small wedding of 39 guests but he ensured he worked his way round everyone showing them his magic tricks. He was friendly, easy going and approachable . Definitely recommend! Thank you 😊

Once again many thanks. Dean & Fiona.
