Paul Preager Full Description
A magician mixing and mingling with your guests is a great way of providing informal entertainment on your wedding day. I can be flexible, versatile I don't need any special equipment and I can mingle with guests at tables or standing both indoors or outside (weather permitting). I am very low maintenance and once I start you don't have to worry as I just continue to perform for all the guests. The are several times during a wedding day which are the best times for me to perform to your guests. The first is during the photograph session following your ceremony, or during the wedding breakfast meal; after the speeches as guests relax after the meal or for the early part of your evening party. Top of my list is after the speeches in that gap before the evening party. People have had a meal , drinks and can chill out to some fantastic magic keeping them entertained for a couple of hours. I can also continue into the evening as new guests arrive for the evening party. My props are small and all carried on me so I don't require tables or a stage as I perform close-up to people and seeing magic in real life is usually quite an amazing experience. It's better than seeing it on the TV! I've been performing magic at weddings and parties for 20 years so can vouch for its effectiveness at the right times. I know when to perform what to perform and how to perform for all ages. 20 years worth of experience is built in. Wedding days have times when guests need an entertaining distraction for a while and it helps to break the ice for people who have never met by providing a talking point and a lively atmosphere. I'm a member of the Magic Circle in London the club for the best magicians in the country and have won "The Close-Up Magician of the Year", award at three local societies (Bristol Society of Magic; Bath Circle of Magic; Cotswolds Magic Society). Rest assured I will look right and provide a great time for your special guests and add a lively atmosphere to the occasion.

Great entertainment from Paul!
Paul entertained our guests at my son's wedding last week and we were so pleased we chose him to join us. Beautiful sunny afternoon and Paul did a fantastic job 'mixing & mingling' with our family & friends and was a brilliant entertainer. Would definitely recommend Paul to anyone organising any event or wedding. * * * * * Julie Carter June 2019 Tewkesbury Park Hotel

Superb Magic from Paul!
Paul Preager (Magic Up Close) provided a jaw dropping service to our Christmas Party. The range of illusions (or is it really magic!) was superb, I could not recommend him highly enough. Capt. Mark Lambert, The King’s Royal Hussars, Wiltshire. * * * * * bark.com review
