Beckie Squire's wedding at the Elmbank Hotel
Magician for Weddings
Having a magician can be the perfect wedding entertainment for several reasons:
When the ceremony is over and the party starts there can be guests who don't know many people and feel on the edge of things. I will tour round during drinks, introduce myself to people, draw them into little groups, engage them with my magic and 'oil the cogs'.
Children may become restless so its great if there are things for them to do. I can help keep them occupied and engaged.
My entertainment is fantastic value for money as my prices are highly competitive.
During drinks
Magic can be a wonderful ice breaker and can work to bring people together when there are two sets of families and friends who may not necessarily know each other.
I will arrive at least half an hour before I'm due to start. I will then be ready to perform as soon as your guests start to sip their first drinks.
The style I adopt during the the drinks is called strolling magic. I perform effects that I can carry in my pockets and that don't need a table. The magic is close-up and sometimes happens in the spectator's own hands which is an interesting experience for them.
The Breakfast
By the time you sit down for the meal a lot of your guests will have met me already, know that I am there to show them some close up magic and so will be primed for more fun.
I approach the tables in between courses and try and engage the whole table if I can with different effects that can be performed at a table. I keep some special effects exclusively for the bride and groom's table.
My style is calm, relaxed, respectful and easy going. I'm out to give people a great time, not to prove how good I am. I like to banter with people but its always done in a way that doesn't offend or embarrass anybody.

The toptable
At an appropriate time I will come to your table with some very special effects that I have reserved exclusively for the bridal party. Keep your rings handy. They will come in very useful!
Be prepared for some jaw dropping effects and often special, impossible souvenirs to take home.

Most venues where I have performed need some time to clear away the tables where you’ve had your wedding breakfast in order to prepare the dance floor whilst the band or disco get setup. I can be performing in a bar area for your guests whilst the room is being prepared.
If you have more guests arriving for the evening then this is a great time for me to perform for the new arrivals.
I have been performing magic since 2004. I have travelled extensively around the North East and as far as Somerset and Northumberland.
I love weddings and I am always happy to talk about what I can do to make your day extra special.

Wedding Magician Prices
I know I'm often one of the last of the suppliers to be considered for a wedding but just think of the value for money that I can supply if many of your guests go home talking about what they've just witnessed. Many of them will never have experienced anything like it before and quite a few times I've had people come up to me in the street and remind me of a a particular trick I did for them several years previously. My wedding magician prices are some of the most competitive you will find.
Wedding Magician Cost
Most weddings I've been to have on average about one hundred guests. If you work out the costs per person, the cost of employing me per individual is likely to be not much more than the cost of them buying a drink at the bar and the effects are far more enjoyable and lasting.
