Congratulations Liam and Emma – A Magical Day at the New Hall Hotel and Spa!

Thank you so much for an incredible performance!

Liam and Emma, 24th May 2025, New Hall Hotel and Spa, Sutton Coldfield

It was a tremendous privilege to be part of the lovely Liam and Emma’s wedding day at the New Hall Hotel and Spa, Sutton Coldfield in May. Indeed, I was delighted when they contacted me, having been provided with a very kind recommendation from Scott and Nichola (friends of the bride and groom) who had both invited me to perform magic at their wedding at Pendrell Hall in 2019.

The beautiful New Hall Hotel and Spa, Sutton Coldfield

Liam and Emma requested that I mingle with their guests during drinks reception (immediately after the ceremony) and provide a little light table magic throughout wedding breakfast period. It truly was a pleasure to entertain such a lovely group of guests at such a stunning venue.

Magic for the newlyweds at the top table!

I always enjoy delivering a wide repertoire of magical effects, illusions, mind-reading routines and sleight-of-hand at wedding receptions. It was fantastic to perform in both the enchanting gardens and magnificent function areas of the hotel. During wedding breakfast, I was delighted to provide a little magic for Liam and Emma to experience too.

There are plenty of stunning locations for wedding photos at the New Hall Hotel and Spa!

Thank you again Emma and Liam for calling upon my services on your big day! It was tremendous to be part of such a magical occasion. Congratulations again, and best wishes for the future!

Congratulations Kieran and Imogen – A Magical Wedding Day at Rufford Mill!

‘Thank you again so much. You were fab and everyone loved it.’

Kieran and Imogen, Rufford Mill, Nottinghamshire, 21st September 2024

It was wonderful to be part of Kieran and Imogen’s big day at the magical Rufford Mill, Nottinghamshire in September last year. The lovely couple and their guests were a joy to entertain during both drinks reception period (immediately after the wedding ceremony) and throughout the early evening reception (after wedding breakfast).

Rufford Mill is a fantastic venue for weddings and special occasions. Find out more at: Rufford Mill Nottinghamshire

Close-up ‘mix-and-mingle’ magic is ideal for wedding day entertainment, and it was a tremendous privilege to amaze Kieran and Imogen’s family and friends during the day reception. Curious card effects, intriguing illusions, and mystifying mind-reading routines were delivered both inside and outside the wonderful venue!

Situated within Rufford Abbey Country Park, there are plenty of outstanding locations for wedding day photos!

Magic is versatile and perfect for all age groups and situations on a wedding day. It can bring guests together who may have never met, and is always an interesting topic for discussion. Find out more at: wedding day magic!

Table-side magic for Kieran and Imogen’s lovely guests.

It is always a pleasure and a privilege to create some magical memories for the newlyweds – particularly during early evening reception when they can relax after the speeches! Child-friendly magic and balloon modelling are two other options I have within my repertoire – in order to entertain any younger guests who may be present too.

It is always magnificent to entertain the newlyweds along with their guests during evening reception on a wedding day.

Overall, it was a fantastic day at the enchanting Rufford Mill. Congratulations again to the lovely Kieran and Imogen! Thank you for investing your trust in me and inviting me to perform on such an important occasion.

It was a tremendous privilege to be part of Michael and Emma’s wedding day celebrations at the delightful Dower House Hotel, Woodhall Spa. The glorious sunshine allowed the lovely couple and their guests to fully savour the beautiful environs of this stunning Lincolnshire venue.

Indeed, the fantastic weather also provided me with a wonderful opportunity to freely mix with Michael and Emma’s family and friends during drinks reception. Close-up card magic, classic illusions, mind-reading routines and curious predictions were delivered throughout this period.

Emma and Michael’s guests were certainly ready to enjoy some entertainment, and the rustic charm of the Dower House complimented the spectacle magnificently. The exceptionally talented PM Photography were present to expertly capture all of those special magical moments throughout the day. Indeed, the fantastic photographs within this article demonstrate Jonathan’s amazing skill and precision, and I am very thankful that he has kindly shared them. Find out more about PM Photography at: PM Photography Lincolnshire.

A wonderful reaction to a mysterious prediction expertly captured by PM Photography

Emma and Michael had also requested that I deliver some table magic during the wedding breakfast. This form of entertainment is rather different to close-up ‘mix-and-mingle’ magic, and I must always ensure that my performances are blended into the schedule in an appropriate manner between the courses.
Entertaining the guests during this part of the wedding day allows me to perform a wide variety of illusions, sleight-of-hand and psychological effects which are all perfect for table-side. The guests, who I may have met during drinks reception, often invite me to entertain them during the meal.

Balloon modelling was provided for the younger guests – image courtesy of PM Photography

I always strive to include everyone at any event I am fortunate to perform at, and Michael and Emma’s wedding was no exception. Child-friendly magic and balloon modelling was delivered for the younger guests too.

It was also a great honour to perform some special magic for the newlyweds after the wedding breakfast. Jonathan ensured that the routine was masterfully captured for posterity!

Kenwick Park, Louth, Lincolnshire

29th August 2024

It was a tremendous pleasure and a privilege to be part of the lovely Katie and Jacob’s wedding celebrations at the fantastic Kenwick Park Hotel, Louth. This superb venue is situated near to the cultural town of Louth which is in close proximity to the unique Lincolnshire coastline. It truly is the perfect location for a wedding celebration, and Katie and Jacob’s big day certainly was a joy to behold.

Close-up magic during drinks reception (immediately after the ceremony when photographs are being taken) is always a lovely time to perform on a wedding day. This gives me an opportunity to share my diverse range of magical effects and create a positive atmosphere prior to wedding breakfast time. Wedding guests of all backgrounds and generations will be brought together by the power of magic!

Card magic, sleight-of-hand, mind-reading, startling predictions, and classical visual illusions are all potent hallmarks of my unique performances. Expect the unexpected on a wedding day! Katie and Jacob’s guests were lovely, and a real pleasure to entertain during both drinks reception and wedding breakfast time.

It is always vital to perform some very special magic for bride and groom on their big day! It was tremendous to have the opportunity to entertain the top table on Katie and Jacob’s wedding – and hopefully this will be a memorable part of the occasion for many years to come. Child-friendly magic, table illusions and balloon modelling were also delivered for the lovely couple’s friends and family.

A marvellous day was had by all, and it was wonderful to perform my magic alongside the fantastic Paul Cato Photographer (who kindly provided these excellent images of the day) and with the staff of this exceptional Lincolnshire venue!
