Ben’s Magical Wedding Proposal in Edinburgh, 2022
Magic between the ceremony and wedding breakfast while photos are being taken, guests waiting with drinks will be treated to dazzling tricks and connect people who haven’t yet crossed paths.
Between the wedding breakfast and evening reception after the meal and speeches, before the party begins, Alex keeps the energy high and the atmosphere buzzing.
As a show-stopper moment a special, collective performance before speeches, just before the first dance, or even outdoors in your gardens. Alex can pull everyone’s attention together and deliver a compelling 20- to 50-minute spectacle.
Throughout cocktail hours, table service or mingling periods Alex moves amongst the guests with sleight-of-hand, mind reading, borrowed objects, and humour.
But weddings aren’t the only time to call in the magic! Close-up magic is also perfect for:
