We had one and he was a massive hit with our guests. We had him there after the ceremony for an hour and half before the meal x

We had one and everyone loved him, not just the children. Easily worth every penny! This is his website:

I used to think they were cheesy and tacky but I met one at a fayre and he was fab. Not in your face gaudy... think it depends on the magician!

I attended a wedding reception with one, he was very good and kept everyone entertained. I think as long as it's not a typical 'cheesy' one, it could be a good idea.

My cousins wedding was last Saturday, and she had booked a magician... he was absolutely amazing, so much so that we have booked him for our own wedding in October

i would say thats a good idea especially if you got kids at your wedding you don't want them to get bored and it keeps the night going x

I think it depends.. if there are children, then yes go for it! I personally don't like magicians so wouldn't really go for it.. saying that, if they're really good i think it could change peoples minds.

We have one to entertain everyone else but they freak me out so we have a rule he can't come near me the bride. Luckily photos will be at that time so I should miss him. x
