Feels great to be back!
Have to admit to a few nerves ahead of performing at my first wedding in over 18 months but I needn’t of worried. Really looking forward to a busy few months performing at some long awaited weddings for some very patient brides & grooms to be.
Good Evening All. Firstly, I apologise for the radio silence but as you can imagine, on the magic front things have been very quiet. In January, I had 30 weddings booked in for 2020 and just 3 went ahead (pre covid). That’s 27 couples I know of that have had to make amendments to their big days, it must have been so disappointing for them and potentially devasting for the many wedding suppliers involved, albeit for different reasons.
Don’t worry, I’m not here to create another depressing post and force my thoughts upon you as to what has happened, I think we can all agree 2020 has been pretty terrible!
On a more positive note I am really pleased to say that I have been able to accommodate 24 couples new wedding dates, some in 2021 and others in 2022. All weddings are unique and so I can only imagine how much work went into trying to find a new date that all suppliers could accommodate, giving couples the day they had originally planned. Well done to those that pulled this off!
So, we all have to keep everything crossed that 2021 and beyond is kind to us and these dream days can go ahead. I can’t help but think next years weddings are going to be even more special, perhaps even bigger celebrations and I personally can not wait to be a small part of those days!
Take Care Olly
As well as a fantastic magician - I also do personal training sessions... 😂 enjoy and stay safe everyone. X
I’ve just arrived home after performing at another great wedding and my seven year old son reminded me I had promised to show him some of the magic I used to win the competition earlier in the week. I hope you enjoy our first Father & Son performance.
Last night I competed for the annual Scooter Memorial Trophy, a close-up card magic competition where magicians must repeat the same 5 minute card routine to over 10 tables with just 30 seconds to reset between performances and Im proud to report that I won!!!
Thank you to Orlando's Italian Restaurant for hosting & to all of those in the audience that took time out to come to watch & vote. What the audience doesn’t see is the hours of practice & work that goes into these routines so special thanks & well done to all of the other magicians that took part.
Please like and share thanks Olly.

Great couple of Wedding Fayre’s this week, Cubley Hall and The Huntsman Inn. Met some lovely Brides and Grooms to be - bookings already going in for 2021!!

YeeeeHaaaa!!! A couple of weeks ago I swapped the flat cap for a cowboy hat at a Wild West themed party in Hepworth. Such a good laugh and lovely guests. With thanks Mark Flynn Photography
Gutted to have missed my 7 year old sons leavers assembly but by the looks of it I may soon have some competition!

Love this sequence of shots from Bagden Hall Wedding fayre. If you are looking for a close up magician I still have limited dates available for this year, whilst next year is starting to book up fast so please don’t leave it to the last minute. 07974434690.
Fantastic day yesterday performing close up magic for the wedding of Lydia and Sam at the stunning venue of Crowhill in Marsden. Congratulations to the both of you.
I’m pleased to say that last night I was able to defend my title at the ‘Woolley Night of Magic’. An event where 10 magicians compete to entertain guests at 10 tables with a piece of close up magic. It’s a great test of creativity, misdirection, speed and skill as the trick has to be reset and repeatedly performed again for the next table while maintaining a ‘wow factor’. Thanks to all who attended and voted for me, my boys were very impressed when they saw the trophy this morning and it’s great to have helped raise funds for the Huddersfield Circle of Magicians 👍🏻🏆
Rubix cube instant toss solve. Thanks to John Steel photography, great guy with great ideas - just before The Huntsman wedding fayre.
Happy New Year! Really enjoyed performing tonight for a family and their friends at their Chinese New Year celebrations. I received some great reactions and left with some thoughtful gifts for my boys. I’ve learnt that Mandarin oranges are traditional symbols of abundance and good fortune and the colour red is the symbol of energy, happiness and good luck. Sending everybody good wishes and luck for 2019. 🇨🇳 🍊🧧
Bagdenhall Hall Wedding Fayre today. All set up and ready to entertain potential brides and grooms.
Great To be performing at a new location for me last weekend - Waterton Park Hotel near Wakefield. Lovely venue and lovely guests at Jade and Chris’s wedding.
Lovely feedback from Steph Carver who’s wedding I attended two weeks ago at the Woodman inn Thunderbridge. 👍🏻
Hi Olly! Just wanted to say thanks ever so much for entertaining the guests at our wedding last week. Everyone absolutely loved you and we’re all amazed by how fantastic you were! We were all left bewildered at the tricks you were doing. Where on earth you pulled a block of ice from on the hottest day of the year I will never know!! 😂😂 fabulous entertainer - I would highly recommend you. Thanks again 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Lovely wedding today for Stephanie and Cam at Crowhill in Marsden. Warm work but some great reactions. If your thinking about having a wedding magician or close up magic at any event then please get in contact early to avoid any disappointment.
Thanks Sally’s Mum 😊 I’m always grateful for any feedback but this email was particularly nice to read 👍🏼
Had the pleasure of performing walk around magic at a fantastic wedding this weekend for the new Mr and Mrs Sally and Scott Irwin. I have to say Crow hill in Marsden is a brilliant venue. Congratulations once again.
Wedding season is truly upon us! On Saturday I had the pleasure of entertaining the guests of the new Mr & Mrs Brown. And on Sunday I had the honour of being both guest & magician for the new Mr & Mrs Earnshaw. Both fantastic days, genuinely great fun to perform to such lovely people! Congratulations again to both couples 👍🏻🥂
