Testimonial

We used Richard a two events for our business and we thoroughly enjoyed having him there. He built great rapport with our guests and event the staff at the venue! Would absolutely book Richard again!

Kezia Shaddick Office Manager

Richard did an amazing job at our wedding. The magic was fun and got people talking - no-one could figure out his tricks! We highly recommend him. So so happy with the magic, he came suited and booted and the tricks were really clever

Hannah Sully Bride

Richard did 2 hours of close up magic at our party and 48 hours later the guests are still talking about it, trying to work out how he did what he did! He was super friendly and very personable not just to book but also with guests, taking care not to bulldoze into conversations. I would highly recommend and trying to think of an excuse to book him again! Thank you x

Make sure your event feels effortless for your guests

If you’re planning a wedding or corporate event in Essex or London, you already know how much responsibility sits on your shoulders.

 

The last thing you want is guests standing around, checking their phones or being awkward.

That’s why choosing the right entertainment matters.

With professional close up magic, your guests are not just watching, they are involved. They are laughing together, reacting together and naturally starting conversations without any pressure. As a result, the atmosphere builds quickly and your event feels exactly how you want it to.

 

Dates, especially for weddings and corporate events, do get booked in advance. So, if you’re considering adding something different that genuinely improves the guest experience, it’s worth checking availability sooner rather than later.
