In this article I will discuss why hiring a wedding entertainment for your wedding will give your big day that extra special X factor
In this article I will discuss WHY you should be hiring a magician and the advantages and disadvantages in doing so. Now, of course, I am slightly biased given that this is my line of work, but I still think I can put forward a case for the conjuring community.
Let’s start by noting that throughout your special day you will be the centre of attention, and your mind will not always be on the welfare of your wedding party, especially during the photos which can be known to go on for a couple of hours. This is where a magician can add that extra dimension to your guests wedding experience and give YOU peace of mind knowing that they are in safe hands.
A good magician can be very versatile and slot in during any part of your day.
The following are popular times when a magician can wow your guests.
Photographs
The formal photographs can take up to a couple of hours with most of your guests left to idly chat amongst themselves. There is no better time than a magician to step in and provide an unforgettable experience,; a great ice breaker.
During the wedding breakfast
The wedding breakfast is another popular time for entertainment. A professional magician will not interrupt whilst people eat but will entertain a table at a time between courses. It is always a lovely moment for the wedding couple to hear loud spontaneous cheers from different tables.
Magic during the evening reception
The evening reception is a time when all the formalities are over and everyone is more relaxed, especially the best man! People do tend to be more open to being entertained during this part of the day which is probably helped by alcohol consumption which does bring people of out of themselves a little more. The evening guests also get to experience some magic too.
That’s the positives for hiring a magician, so what are the negatives?
The cost is usually the first thing people think of and, like any other genre of entertainment, you get what you pay for. A good magician will likely set you back around five hundred pounds, not cheap.
Secondly, it will take you time find the right magician. I cannot stress enough how important it is that you put the effort in, if not, another downside is that you will likely spend the duration of the time he is performing wondering if he is entertaining your guests to the standard you expect on your big day. Trust me, you do not need any more stress. Yes, it will take time which you may not have, but it is essential. See my article “5 things to be aware of when booking a magician for your wedding” to make this process a lot easier.
So, to summarise; if you have the budget and have the patience to find the right man for the job it is well worth hiring a wedding magician. You will likely hear your guests talking about “that magician” or “that trick” for years to come which will surely bring a smile to your face.
