His friendly & approachable style of magic has wowed guests at weddings nationwide, such as Hertfordshire, Essex, Buckinghamshire, Bedfordshire and London to name just a few locations. If you are looking for a professional close up magician for wedding entertainment, contact Chris to reserve your date in advance.
This is usually the first time all the guests have the opportunity to mix, but often each group of friends and relatives have never met before and tend to stick together. When you hire a wedding magician to perform close up magic, it brings people together and gets them talking, laughing and having fun together which is what it’s all about. This creates a magical atmosphere that carries on throughout the day into the wedding breakfast and the evening reception. Chris is a professional close up magician & knows how to get the crowd going with his lively entertainment.
When you have a lot of people sitting down for the wedding breakfast at the same time, it can sometimes feel like quite a wait for those on the last few tables to be served. A close up magician for wedding table magic is the perfect choice of entertainment here. And a great distraction for people instead of spending their time wistfully looking at other tables tucking into their delicious food. Instead they can enjoy their own exclusive magic show and won’t mind the wait. Chris will coordinate with the wedding venue staff to find out which order the tables will be served in. This will ensure he can start performing at the ones that will have to wait for the longest.
After dinner, there is usually a lull in proceedings whilst the dinner tables are being cleared and the room changed to be ready for the evening dancing and partying. Many couples will invite even more friends to the evening reception and they often turn up to find guests having a quiet drink whilst they digest their food and have a bit of a rest. A world-class wedding magician like Christopher will not only boost the energy levels at these times, he’ll also help break the ice between the day guests and the evening guests with his amazing close-up magic. He’ll soon have everyone energised and ready to hit the dance floor to party the night away!

You brought so much excitement and energy to our drinks reception. Your whit, engaging personality and good humour was exactly what we wanted, you created the perfect wedding atmosphere that carried on into the small hours.

Caroline & Phillip
Chris performed at our wedding last week and he was amazing. We had both seen him before at an event and we knew instantly we had to book him. He was ever so helpful and extremely professional from our initial enquiry right through to the wedding day itself. Our guests absolutely loved it and Christopher performed a special trick just for us. I won’t spoil it, but it was incredible. Thank you once again for all your help in creating such a memorable day.

I wanted to tell you that you were a great addition to our day, and I fondly remember how you produced our signed card in a block of ice – it was truly amazing. You certainly brought a pleasant surprise and encouraged a warmer atmospheres for our guests with your magic skills during the drinks reception. It is important we tell you that you truly delighted us with your finesse and skills and our guests have not stopped talking about fantastic you were. You were highly professional from the start, from the booking process till the end, and we will be recommending you for future events.

We had Chris perform between the reception and breakfast. He came highly recommended and did not disappoint. He is the BEST magician I have seen in a long time. His customer service was second to none! He was absolutely brilliant and all out guests were blown away by him. Cheers echoed through the venue after every trick. He made sure to entertain every group, even staying longer to achieve this, a very friendly, fun and enthusiastic entertainer. A wonderful addition to our special day.
Stephen Parsons
Hi Christopher, I must thank you for being a part of our big day. You came highly recommended and you were absolutely fantastic. The signed card is in the wedding album so everyone can see it when they come over to look at the photos.
Throughout the day I had guests coming up telling me that your magic was amazing and what a great idea it was to have you. The trick you performed when my husband’s ring ended up inside a walnut still leaves me speechless!
I will gladly be recommending you to everyone I know.
Linda Reynolds
Thank you very much once again for being a part of our wedding day. You blended in seamlessly with our guests performing your amazing magic during our reception drinks. The laughter and the sounds of astonishment were ringing through the venue.
Christopher not only are you a great magician but you’re a friendly, approachable, enthusiastic chap! Highly professional from start to finish, I am so glad we booked you, I can’t recommend you highly enough and everyone is still talking about your magic! Well worth every penny. If you’re getting married then look no further than Christopher for your entertainment. Best decision we made.
Julie & Harry Swanson
Christopher performed at our wedding on Saturday and our guests absolutely loved the magic – even some of the guests who weren’t particularly interested in magic tricks loved watching it. Amazing performer. I would recommend Christopher to anyone who wanted an alternative evening entertainment for their special day.
