Weddings are magical events and sometimes it takes someone with special powers to make it come to life. A wedding magician is a person who provides support and assistance in a variety of ways to ensure the vision becomes a reality for the young couple. In the excitement of the moment many engaged couples lack the understanding of exactly how much work is involved in planning a wedding, but discover it all too soon. Selection of the ceremony and reception sites, choosing from the thousands of invitations available, determining colors, and many other things go into a wedding and can cause much stress if sufficient support is not available or requested.

When to ask for help in planning a wedding, reception, or honeymoon is based on individual preference which is often impacted by time and resources. Some people are able to take over from the start and need no assistance. Others, who have not done much planning feel overwhelmed from the very beginning. If this is the case then it is time to decide just how much help is needed. A couple planning a wedding should sit down and decide what they will do together and when the help of others is required.

In a previous article I discussed “5 things to be aware of when booking a wedding magician for your wedding.” Naturally in writing that article I assumed you, the bride, (I’m making the assumption that it’s the bride reading this, as, let’s face it, the bride organises everything) had already decided that a magician is what you wanted, the help I gave was in finding the right one.

Now, being a full time professional magician obviously makes me a little biased when discussing why a magician is a good idea since I’ve experienced first hand what a difference it can make; however, I will still give what I feel are a few negatives in hiring a magician later in this article.

Let’s start by noting that throughout your special day you will be the centre of attention, and your mind will not always be on the welfare of your wedding party, especially during the photos which can be known to go on for a couple of hours. This is where a magician can add that extra dimension to your guests wedding experience and give YOU peace of mind knowing that they are in safe hands.

If you are planning your wedding, your decision list is filling up fast. Clothing and location have to be considered, along with who will attend and what type of decorations you want. You can have fun and be creative when it comes time to select your wedding entertainment.

When it comes to wedding entertainment, you have a lot more options than you had in the past. You might want to stick with tradition and offer your guests the tranquil setting provided by a simple piano or harp player. Or maybe your family and friends are a more raucous bunch and want to really party hard. It is up to you to decide.

Facing the realities of what you can do comes first. First on the list of considerations is the budget. It could be the determining factor about the type of entertainment you can enlist. If family members or friends are talented, by all means see if they can help provide the entertainment. Maybe you can get free entertainment that way. If you are lucky enough to get free entertainment it is always a good idea to get them a gift or offer them a tip to show you appreciate their efforts.
