A wedding is a fantastic opportunity to gather, celebrate, and spread joy.
When the atmosphere is just right, and you’re surrounded by loved ones, weddings are an unforgettable experience. Booking the right entertainment is a large part of setting the atmosphere at your wedding.
Over the years, it has become conventional to book DJs and live band performances for weddings. However, in recent years alternative forms of wedding entertainment are beginning to gain popularity. Your wedding should reflect who you and your partner are as people – why shouldn’t your celebration be as unique as you are?
Perhaps you’ve decided that you would like to book some unforgettable wedding entertainment – but which type should you choose?
A wedding magician is an increasingly popular, but still original addition to your nuptial festivities.
What does a wedding magician do, and how can they add extra sparkle to your wedding? Let’s dive right in and explore some of the ways wedding magicians can make your big day a mind-blowing experience.
When preparing for their wedding, many couples mistakenly think that entertainment is only for children or should only occur in the late hours of the event.
Wedding entertainment is perfect for just about any time of the day – and adults love being entertained as much as kids do!
There are many advantages to providing entertainment for both adults and children at your wedding ceremony. By booking a wedding magician, you can create a memorable occasion that will be fondly recalled for years to come.
Perhaps you like the idea of an alternative wedding magician. However, you really want the focus of your wedding to be you and your partner, rather than the entertainment.
If this sounds like you, a mingling wedding magician or mind reader is perfect for your big day. These expert entertainers do not announce their entrance. Instead, they seamlessly blend in with guests at your event, moving through the crowd and finding groups of individuals to entertain.
You can liaise with your alternative wedding magician beforehand to choose optimal times for their entertainment. Mingling magicians are typically booked for natural lulls in your wedding – while you are having your wedding photos taken, for instance. They also do a great job of breaking the ice, so you may also want their services at the very beginning of your event to get everybody chatting with each other.
Caricaturists, bubbleologists, and champagne waitresses are other great mix and mingle entertainers to have at your wedding day.
If you’re the type who likes to kill two birds with one stone, consider booking a magic wedding emcee/wedding host.
Your wedding host is an integral part of your big day. They’re the one who makes everything run smoothly and on schedule. They ensure your friends and family are seated in the correct places, introduce speeches, announce your first dance, and so on.
A magic wedding emcee takes care of all traditional wedding host duties – as well as performing magic tricks and mind reading to keep your guests entertained! You won’t need to worry about whether your guests are enjoying themselves at your wedding. Leaving your guests in the capable hands of a professional frees up mental space for you to focus on the most important thing: enjoying your big day with the person you love.
A good magic wedding emcee will meet with you and your partner beforehand to get a feel for your preferred style. By spending a little time getting to know you both, they will be able to bring in a personalised touch to their announcements and chosen magic acts for the event.
Maybe you want to go all-out and make your wedding the most unique and memorable experience possible.
A themed wedding is a guaranteed way to make your big day stand out!
Staging a themed event goes beyond just choosing colours and clothes. When there is a theme, it changes the entire feeling of the event – and entertainers can be brought in that fit into the theme.
For example, why not live out your childhood dream of having a fairytale themed wedding? For this type of event, you could book walkabout fairies or mermaid bartenders to welcome your guests to your event. Bubbleologists can help you set the scene by providing a magical atmosphere, and your wedding magician can be the main act or entertainer of the day.
The possibilities are endless when it comes to unforgettable wedding entertainment. A themed wedding is a great way to utilize a magician’s skills for your big day, transforming your ceremony into a truly memorable one.
Do you and your partner like to do things a little differently? Consider booking unforgettable wedding entertainment to bring something extra special to your wedding.
