Add a Little Magic to Your Wedding with a Wedding Magician!

Are you looking for something unique and exciting to add to your wedding reception? Why not hire a wedding magician! A professional magician can liven up any party and keep your guests entertained. Here are some things to consider if you're thinking about hiring a wedding magician for your big day.

What Does a Wedding Magician Do?

A wedding magician is a performer who specializes in entertaining guests at weddings. They will typically mingling with guests during the cocktail hour or reception, performing close-up magic tricks. Many magicians also offer to perform stage shows if there is an appropriate space available.

Wedding magicians are usually hired to add an extra element of fun and excitement to the reception. They can help break the ice and get guests talking, which is especially beneficial if you have a lot of out-of-town guests who don't know each other. Magicians are also great at keeping kids entertained so that their parents can enjoy the reception without worrying about them getting bored or restless.

How Do I Choose a Wedding Magician?

There are a few things you'll want to consider when choosing a wedding magician, such as their performance style, what type of tricks they perform, and whether they have experience performing at weddings.

You'll want to make sure that the magician's performance style is compatible with your wedding vision. For example, if you're having a formal black-tie affair, you'll probably want to avoid hiring a comedian-style magician who tells jokes and uses profanity in their act. Conversely, if you're having a more laid-back backyard barbecue-style reception, a more traditional close-up magician might not be the best fit either.

When it comes to the type of tricks they perform, most magicians specialize in either close-up magic or stage illusions. Close-up magic is performed while mingling with guests and usually uses everyday objects like cards, coins, and rings. Stage illusions are larger tricks that require props and sometimes even assistants; these are typically reserved for shows rather than mingling with guests.

Last but not least, you'll want to make sure that the magician has experience performing at weddings (and that they have good reviews from past clients). This isn't necessarily a dealbreaker if they don't have wedding experience— after all, most magicians have performed at parties and events—but it's something to keep in mind.

Hiring a wedding magician is a great way to add some excitement and entertainment to your reception. Just make sure to do your research before making your decision so that you can find the perfect performer for your big day!
