A Valentine’s Day proposal calls for a magical wedding

If you’re romantically inclined, Valentine’s Day is the most important day of the year. It’s traditionally the most popular day to get on one knee and make a magical Valentine’s Day proposal.

Did you propose or receive a proposal this Valentine’s Day?

If so, you’ll be excitedly planning your wedding day, researching venues, outfits, rings, menus, and wedding entertainment! And while the day is all about the happy couple, many also like to think about their guests. Your wedding day will whizz by in a whirlwind of activity. Between you, you’ll know all your guests, so when you’re not busy with wedding duties, you’ll be chatting with everyone in the room or simply gazing into each other’s eyes!

Don’t forget that, although you’ll know all your guests, it’s unlikely that all your guests will know each other because so many people from different groups will be meeting each other for the very first time. To make things easier for them, it’s a great idea to provide entertainment that’ll help break the ice during the drinks reception after the marriage ceremony, especially as that’s the time you’re most likely to be busy with your photographer.

This is an excellent time to introduce a wedding magician. What magic can do is bring different people together to watch, gasp, and laugh, and with something in common to talk about, the ice will be well and truly broken. In my experience, after I’ve been around all the guests performing for small groups of people, they’re much more likely to mingle with each other, and their energy levels are elevated quite a bit.

Keeping attention away from food

Another key time to hire a magician is at dinner. Chris is often asked to perform close-up magic at the tables when people are waiting for their food. After finding out which tables will be served first, he begins at the tables where he’ll be waiting the longest. When you’re hungry, it’s frustrating to watch lots of other people tucking into a lovely dinner, so magic is a fantastic distraction. Time flies by, and before they know it, the waiting staff have arrived with their food. Chris will then work his way around the room and entertain the other guests as their tables are cleared.

Getting the party started

The transition between the day’s activities and the evening’s dancing is another excellent time to employ a magician, especially if you have extra guests arriving for the night-time festivities. After a lovely meal, people tend to want to sit quietly for a while, but then you’ll want to raise their energy levels again to liven things up. Wedding magic is the perfect way to do this—it’s a wonderful icebreaker between the day guests and the new arrivals, and it’ll get people back on their feet and ready to dance!
