Tell us about yourself and how you landed your dream job as a wedding magician...

I am a UK magician and entertainer, specialising in elite and exclusive weddings. My services offer entertainment for the happy couple and their guests throughout selected periods in the day. My interest in magic began at an early age, with my first magic book given to me at the age of 7 - I was instantly hooked! I performed in school and my first paid performance was at the age of 12 for a friend's birthday. It's been my love ever since.

What's your top tip for wedding couples looking to book a magician?
When booking a magician, make sure you choose one that will suit your day and theme. Think about when you'll want them to entertain your guests. My recommendations are during the day drinks reception on the lead up to the wedding breakfast, after the meal before your evening guests arrive or whilst your evening guests start to arrive. These are the lull periods where you'll be mingling, having your photos taken, taking a breather, etc. and I will keep your guests entertained.

I will always wear a suit (unless asked otherwise) and arrive early in case your timings are a little off and I will never leave until you have experienced your own special performance with a souvenir to remind you of your special day.

What question do you get asked the most?
The most common questions usually asked are: "Can you make xxx disappear?" or "Can you make some cash appear?" The classics!

From venues and catering to the dress and rings, wedding expenses can quickly add up. With the average cost of a UK wedding now more than £20,000, and with so many other pressures on our finances, putting money aside for your special day can feel challenging. A Cash ISA can be an efficient way for couples to save for their big day. With the Personal Savings Allowance limited to £1,000 for basic rate taxpayers, the tax-free allowance in an ISA has the potential to help you reach your goals sooner. Chris Henderson, Save and Pay Director at Tesco Bank, shares his top tips on how couples can save for a wedding and beyond.

Married to your surname? 26% of women are planning on keeping theirs

Married to your surname? 26% of women are planning on keeping theirs

Lots of people are ditching traditions when it comes to modern weddings and marriage - one of which quickly losing favour is the tradition of taking your partner's surname. In a recent survey carried out by Pandora UK, almost nine in ten (88%) women said they think that attitudes to married names are changing in 2026 ¹. When asked, over a quarter (26%) of unmarried women said they'd keep their last name if they got married, whilst less than half (45%) said they'd take their partner's name. This is indicative of the shift in opinion in recent years, as when married women were asked, only a sixth (17%) of women said they kept their maiden names when they got married, whilst the majority (78%) took their partner's surname, with just 4% choosing to double-barrel their last name with their significant other.
