The best times to have a magician at your wedding

After performing at more than 1,000 weddings, Lewis most often recommends the drinks reception after the ceremony or the period after the wedding breakfast.

After the ceremony / drinks reception

Guests are excited, meeting each other for the first time, and waiting for the next part of the day to settle. Magic gives everyone something shared to react to straight away.

Best for breaking the ice fast and keeping the drinks reception full of conversation.

After the wedding breakfast

Energy often dips while the room resets and the evening starts to build. This is where the right entertainment lifts the atmosphere again without adding another formal block.

Best for carrying momentum into the evening and keeping guests engaged between key moments.

He elevated a good evening at my daughter's wedding reception to a great one. His performance was, frankly, stunning.
