The entertainment you choose for your wedding has a big impact. It should turn your day into a really memorable event and create an air of celebration.
Magic is one of the most versatile forms of entertainment which provides comedy, mystery and interaction. A magician has many practical uses as well, such as adding structure to the day, breaking the ice between guests and helping to fill any unexpected delays.
A Magician as a Wedding Entertainer
Magic is the ideal form of entertainment for a wedding because it is versatile, flexible and suitable for a mixed family audience. Most people, young and old, enjoy magic and an experienced wedding entertainer will be able to perform for all ages.
Despite being more popular than ever, many people have only ever seen magic on television. Seeing magic performed 'live' is quite a novelty for most people and will make your wedding day even more special.
Close-Up Magic
Close-up magic is the most flexible and versatile form of magic. A close-up magician doesn't require any special equipment or facilities such as power or a public address system and will usually carry all his or her props in their pockets. Also, it only takes a few minutes for a professional magician to get ready before they start entertaining.
Compared to many of the things that need organising for a wedding, the close-up magician is easy - tell him the date and time, and leave him to it!
A close-up magician mingles with guests, spending a few minutes with each group entertaining them with amazing magic. It is a great way to break the ice amongst people who have never met before because they come together while enjoying the magical entertainment.
Magic provides a great talking point,with everybody comparing their experience and wondering how on earth the magician did it. While the magician is entertaining one group, everyone else is wondering about the sounds of astonishment and laughter coming from across the room.
There can sometimes be times during a wedding celebration when not much is happening, especially for the guests. Close-up magic can fill these lulls and turn them into a highlight.
Close-up magic works really well:
* While guests are waiting for the buffet. * Between the daytime and evening functions. * When guests are arriving at the reception or waiting in the reception line. * While guests are waiting for the meal to start. * Between the courses of the meal (especially if there are many guests to cater for). * While the wedding party are being photographed.
A professional wedding entertainer will help make your day into a memorable event without detracting from it or taking it over.
