Overview

How Does Wedding Magic Work?...
Serving as your special host, I’ll meet and greet your guests, entertaining a few people at a time. If your guests are seated, they’ll get a short performance at their table - usually after eating. If they’re mingling, I’ll mingle with them. I specialize in fun, sophisticated sleight-of-hand liberally sprinkled with good, clean humor. My magic will set the perfect tone for the evening.

I usually perform at the reception during the cocktail hour. I’ll start once the guests arrive at the reception site, and finish when the bride and groom make their formal entrance. If desired, I can also stay to entertain seated guest not dancing so that all may feel

What to expect

What is a Close-Up Magician?
You’ve seen them on “America’s Got Talent”, David Blaine TV specials and Las Vegas Illusion shows - a Close up magician (or sometimes referred to as a strolling magician) will move between all your wedding guests providing them some amazing close up magic and miniature illusions that occur in their own hands. Close-up Magic is a great ice breaker for family and friends at your wedding who have never met. Sometimes a simple magic trick can provide them a topic for discussion for the evening and beyond.

Additional booking notes

What is the Gap?
The Gap is the one portion of the wedding experience often overlooked in your planning. The Gap is that window of time immediately following the ceremony leading up to the arrival of the bridal party at the reception. It can be an hour - it can be longer. While you are laughing with your friends taking pictures, your reception guest are growing bored as they await your arrival. The DJ or band can play music but tradition requires no one dance until you arrive. It can be a problem - I have the solution.
