For example, coins will appear, forks will bend, cards can change or disappear – all while being held in a guests’ hands!
When booking a close-up magician, it’s extremely important to hire somebody who is experienced and skilled in audience management. The last thing you want at your wedding or party is for your guests to feel uncomfortable or embarrassed when they are supposed to be having the best time.
