In this article I will discuss why hiring a wedding entertainment for your wedding will give your big day that extra special X factor
Now, being a full time professional magician obviously makes me a little biased when discussing why a magician is a good idea since I've experienced first hand what a difference it can make; however, I will still give what I feel are a few negatives in hiring a magician later in this article.
Let's start by remembering the fact that throughout your wedding day you will be the centre of attention, and so naturally your mind will not always be on the general welfare of your guests, especially during the photos where you will likely be occupied for a couple of hours. This is where a magician can step in to add that extra dimension to your guests wedding experience and give you peace of mind knowing that they are in good 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.
Evening reception
A magician can also entertain during the evening reception when all your evening guests have arrived and the party is in full swing. With formalities out the way this is usually a very relaxed part for all and having a magician entertain can provide a very memorable experience for all. A magician can mingle with guests and even perform a small show which will always include the wedding couple.
Now it would be wrong for me to JUST discuss all the positives involved in hiring a magician and not look at some negatives, albeit very few that I can think of.
Firstly, the cost. Hiring a decent professional close up is not cheap and would usually set you back in the region of five hundred pounds for a couple of hours. If you have the budget, then do it.
You also have to consider that booking a good, no great, magician, with a lot of experience and great testimonials AND the right personality will likely take you time to find. I cannot stress how important it is to find the right magician for your big day. Yes, it will take some research on the internet, a few phonecals and maybe even seeing a few in action at some wedding fayres, but it will be worth it to take away the stress on the day knowing your guests are being entertained as you wish them to be.
So, in conclusion, if you have the money and time to find a magician that you know will meet the expectations you have then book one. For years to come your guests will likely talk about "that magician" which will bring a smile to your face. - 31879
