Trusted by couples, companies and private clients across Dorset and the South Coast, I combine seamless hosting with unforgettable close-up magic — bringing energy, structure and personality to weddings, corporate events and private celebrations alike.

From welcoming guests and guiding key moments to creating mind-blowing reactions up close, my role is to ensure your event flows effortlessly, feels engaging from start to finish, and leaves a lasting impression on everyone in the room.

With years of experience hosting and entertaining at weddings, corporate functions and private celebrations across the region, I’ve been trusted to help bring hundreds of events to life. But rather than simply take my word for it, below you’ll find genuine feedback from couples, companies and private clients who have experienced the magic.

Media

Over the years, I’ve had the pleasure of being featured across local radio, podcasts, newspapers and regional magazines, sharing insight into the world of professional magic and event hosting.

These features offer a behind-the-scenes perspective on what truly goes into delivering exceptional live experiences. From discussing recent national and regional award wins to exploring how I first began performing, the conversations go far beyond what audiences see in the moment.

Topics have included what it really takes to build a career as a professional magician, the journey from early performances to hosting high-profile weddings and corporate events across the South Coast, and the standards, discipline and craftsmanship associated with institutions such as The Magic Circle.

Together, these appearances provide a deeper look at the preparation, professionalism and responsibility that underpin every event I’m trusted to host and perform.

Awards & Recognition

Over the years, I’ve been incredibly proud to receive recognition from respected wedding industry bodies for both performance and professionalism. While awards are never the reason I do what I do, they reflect the consistent standard of experience I aim to deliver at every event.

National & Regional Awards

Industry & Peer Recognition

Alongside national and regional wedding industry awards, I’ve also been recognised within the magic community itself. Winning both stage and close-up competitions at respected organisations such as the Wessex Magical Association and Associated Wizards of the South reflects technical ability, originality and performance strength — judged by fellow magicians.

  • Audience Choice Award (Stage) 2024 - Wessex Magical Association

  • Audience Choice Award (Close Up) 2024 - Wessex Magical Association

  • Close Up Magician of the Year 2022 - Associated Wizards of the South

  • Close Up Magician of the Year 2022 - Wessex Magical Association

While clients may never see the competitive side of magic, that peer recognition underpins every event I perform at. It ensures the standard behind the scenes is as strong as the experience delivered in the room: polished, professional and genuinely impactful.

Being recognised at both national and regional level is a true honour. These awards reflect more than performance alone — they acknowledge professionalism, consistency and the overall experience delivered from beginning to end.

For my clients, they offer quiet reassurance that they are choosing someone trusted, established and committed to elevating every event with polish, energy and care.
