Hi, I’m Robert, and as a professional magician and mind reader I really can bring real magic to your day. I do this by entertaining your guests and ensuring everyone has lasting memories of your special occasion.
“But every magician’s website makes that exact claim!” I hear you cry. “Come on magic boy, what makes you so special?!”
Well, as well as entertaining your guests I also like to mess with their heads a little. I’ll make them laugh, shout, cheer and mutter naughty words under their breath. I aim to give them an experience they’ll enjoy at the time, but will give them something to talk about , as well as a lasting memory. (Seriously, you know that auntie of yours who is all prim-and-proper? She’ll be swearing like a docker after seeing a bit of my magic.)
You have probably seen magicians at events before (perhaps even at a wedding); and once you’ve seen one, you’ve seen them all, right?
Wrong!
How I perform can vary from other magicians. I’m not one of these that wanders around showing the next trick in my pocket like an un-charismatic performing monkey with no social skills and jokes dating back to antiquity.
Unlike other magician I pride myself on having a personality, and know how to interact with people. I even make sure there isn’t dirt under my finger-nails either. It’s your wedding and you are paying me to entertain your guests, therefore I want them to relax as they realise they are in the (clean) hands of an experienced professional who cares about the little details.
I make eye contact and remember your guests names as I mingle around and re-visit groups. I don’t mutter things like “for my next trick”, or “what I’m gonna try and do now is…”. If you’re paying for a magician you don’t want them going round trying to do a trick, you want them to blooming well get on and do it, and do it well! I want your guests to welcome me back to their group as I circulate, and then I can build layers upon layers. This is where things get interesting.
Got an uncle who thinks he knows how it’s all done? Great, I’ve been a full time professional magician since 2006 (and a hobbyist for years before that). In that time I have performed thousands and thousands of tricks at literally hundreds and hundred of weddings, parties and corporate events. I’m experienced, and I’ll use that knowledge to walk him right down the garden path – and he’ll love every minute of it!
Got some teenage cousins who are just way too cool for magic? Perfect, I’ll do some of that close-up magic they’ve seen Dynamo do on YouTube. Not just that, I can even do it whilst wearing a smart suit and not mumbling.
Got relatives from two different families who don’t know each other, and who are going to stand there in awkward silence for the afternoon whilst you are off doing your photos? Yes, you have – it happens at every wedding. Guess what, my job is to get them interacting, laughing and generally having a good time. Breaking ice and kick-starting conversations, that’s what I do.
Can I read your mind? Yes. Yes I can.

Really adds an extra dimension to the day and gets everyone chatting and laughing away. He was accommodating with regards to timings, made sure that the bride and groom got to experience some of the magic, and the kids loved it. Would recommend!read less - Steve P. - 08 Aug 2023

Rationally we knew he was deluding us, but no one knew how. What we saw in his tricks and in his seemingly reading of the mind was nothing less than unbelievable, and yet it had to be believed because we witnessed it! And as he ‘performed’ as a magician, Robert entertained us by his wit and quick humour. I wish I could think of an early event to invite Robert back again.read less - j w. - 16 Sep 2023

I first found his videos (which were a genuine reflection on his abilities without giving anything away so it was still a surprise on the day) & then after making contact with him, I knew he would be the perfect addition to our day. He was so reliable, good at communicating with us in the run-up, punctual on the day (apart from actually leaving when he was due to as I’m sure I saw him doing “just one more trick” a good while after he was meant to go), he mingled perfectly, built up an amazing rapport with all of our guests, and he was generally just the most wonderful entertainment for everybody there. I had so many comments and compliments on him throughout the day & I cannot recommend him enough!

We enjoyed him so much that we booked him for our own wedding just last week. He was sensational. Loads of great feedback from our guests and tons of shocks and wows on the day too. I his website and his videos (though they show his ability) to me do not do him justice so I'll certainly be sharing any images or footage with him once I get any back from our wedding photographers - who were also outstanding so should have some good stuff for me to post here once I get it back from them.

Lasting Memories of Your Wedding
Essentially I provide a three tier service. The first is what I do whilst I’m there, and that’s to entertain. The second tier is to generate the talking point – this starts from the moment I leave a group, throughout the rest of the day when people will be discussing what they’ve seen over dinner or with the evening guests.
The third tier is my secret agenda, my long term objective. This may sound a bit odd but I want to be the story your guests are still talking about in five years time. When a magician comes on TV or one of your guests is at a Christmas party and guy in a cheap suit comes over I want them to say, “That was alright, but a few years ago I was at a wedding and I saw a guy do…”. That’s your wedding they’re talking about years afterwards.
And there you were searching the internet for someone to do a couple of tricks!
You can book me with confidence, having turned full-time professional in 2006 I have a wealth of experience and should the worst happen I have £5 million Public Liability Insurance – though I really have no idea how I could possibly do that much damage doing a card trick.
I have entertained at hundreds of weddings and events over those years. Thousands and thousands of wedding guests have been entertained.
That’s a lot of knowledge and experience. Seriously, you have a member of your family who is a “bit of a character”? I’ve met worse. You may be paying me to be at your wedding for a couple of hours, but that short time includes 15 years of experience; and countless hours of practise, rehearsal and performance.
Every wedding is unique, and therefore have varying requirements. Because of this, and varying time constraints, I have put together a selection of packages to ensure you get maximum entertainment and value.
Adding Magic to Your Wedding Day!
Right, I can’t really say much more. Well, actually I could; but you are a busy person and you got things to do. Why not just get on and book me then you can get that ticked off your to-do list. Then you can spend your time working out the important things, such as will you be going for prawn or egg-mayonnaise vol-au-vents…
Still reading? Well done, now get on a book me before someone else does.
