We chat wedding entertainment with Yorkshire wedding magician Wee Magic Al

We asked Yorkshire wedding magician Wee Magic Al what kind of entertainment works well to fill the gap between the wedding ceremony and reception. Here's what he said...

I may be biased, but I believe a close-up magician is perfect for bridging the period between the vows and the wedding breakfast. A great magician will interact with groups of people while providing humour and a sense of wonder. It's ideal for breaking the ice and getting your guests to socialise, especially if they've never met before – and all ages will love it.

A true professional won't be showing off, but they'll create a special moment for your loved ones and keep them entertained. Just like a musician, if you pick an expert with years of experience, it'll set your day apart. From a practical point of view, they don't need a stage area and can quietly mingle with your friends and family to fill any lulls in the day.
