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.

29/10/2020

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

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.

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 👍🏻🏆

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. 🇨🇳 🍊🧧

Oli came to perform at our wedding at the Vineyard in Holmfirth and delighted our guests, young and old! We had kept it a surprise and Oli’s tricks made for a wonderful afternoon of entertainment. Oli is friendly, fun and highly professional, and he made sure as many people as possible got to see a trick performed. Unforgettable experience that got everyone talking! Thank you Oli!

Wow wow a big massive Thank you Olly you was absolutely fantastic at r Laura n Chris wedding at Burntwood 20th Oct thanku our guest was amazed your brilliant xx
After seeing Olly at the crow hill wedding fair. We were blown away by his magic as were our family. We knew then we had to have him for our wedding. On the day Olly arrived for our drinks reception he amazed the guests, all everyone could say was how brilliant Olly was and couldn’t get over the magic he did. Not only were our guests blown away but so was myself and new husband (as well as the photographer taking the pictures)

Olly has everyone talking about him the next day too. Thank you for making our wedding day so memorable. We can’t recommend Olly enough.
Many thanks for making Emma's birthday party the best party ever. You were fantastic and everybody was in awe. Loved it, thanks again
Thank you so much Olly for a fantastic night at my daughters birthday party. Here she is with you utterly mesmerised, as we all were. The menfolk are still trying to suss it out 🤔. Once again thank you for making the evening a roaring success. All the very best to you
What a fantastic 50th bday I had the club was buzzing thanks to olly all my friends were amazed by your magic thank you x
