How much do you charge for weddings?
Our packages start from £695 for close-up magic during the drinks reception and photo period. We also offer enhanced packages that include emcee services to reduce your stress on the day. Book a free callback and I’ll give you exact pricing for your date and venue.
How much notice do you need to book you?
I recommend booking 9–18 months in advance, especially for peak summer Saturdays in Staffordshire and the Midlands. Popular dates fill quickly.
Do you have public liability insurance?
Yes I do and if your venue need to see a copy. Please feel free to email me and happy send them a copy
What happens if you can’t perform on the day?
I’ve never had to use a contingency plan, but I am a member of the PMCA network of trusted professional magicians. If anything unexpected happened, another vetted magician would step in so your day is never left without entertainment.
How long have you been performing and do you have wedding experience?
I’ve been in the entertainment industry for over 15 years. I’m a 2025 Best Wedding Magician winner (TWIA), three-time LUXLIFE Wedding Magician winner, and have performed at hundreds of weddings across Staffordshire, Derbyshire and the wider Midlands.

Will it look cheesy in our photos?
Close-up magic looks like engaged, laughing guests in your photos. Your photographer will thank you for capturing genuine emotion instead of forced smiles.
What if our venue is outdoors?
Most of my close-up magic works perfectly outdoors. No electricity or complicated setup is needed.
