Magicians in Somerset

Hire a magician in Somerset

Every wedding has a gap while the photos are taken. In Somerset, a close-up magician fills it, moving between guests at the drinks reception and the tables at the wedding breakfast.

Whether your wedding is near Taunton, Bath and Wells or further afield, the magicians here cover the whole of Somerset. Local venues include Wick Farm, Sparkford Hall and The Cider Barn at Dillington Estate, and it's worth checking with your venue where the music or entertainment will be set up. You'll find more Somerset venues below, including St Audries Park, The Roman Baths and Priston Mill, each with its own page.

Magic is a great ice-breaker. While the couple are having photos taken, a close-up magician can bring together guests who have never met, and the tricks become something people talk about for the rest of the day.

We've been booking wedding entertainment since 1999, and every magician on this page covers Somerset. You can check your date and price straight away with the instant quote button.

The essentials:

• Prices usually from £350 up to £800
• Many acts can cover more than one part of the day in a single booking
• Summer Saturdays book up first, so it pays to enquire early
• The quote you receive sets out exactly what's included
• 14-day change-of-mind refund on every booking

A close-up magician moves between groups, spending a few minutes with each and performing tricks with borrowed items as well as cards. For larger weddings, tell us the guest numbers so we can make sure the booking is long enough for everyone to see them.

Expect to pay from around £350 up to £800. A single drinks reception slot sits at the lower end, while a magician covering the drinks reception and the wedding breakfast sits towards the upper end. Busy Saturdays in summer and December sit at the top of the range, and your quote shows exactly what's included.

Every act's page has video and audio of the performer you would actually book, along with their repertoire and written reviews from couples who have booked them. It's the easiest way to check the style and the sound before you commit.

The instant quote button gives you a price and availability for your date straight away. From there, we manage the contract and deposit and keep you updated until the day. Every booking is covered by a 14-day change-of-mind refund, and there's an emergency contact line on the day in case anything needs sorting.
