MAGIC THAT BRINGS EVERYONE TOGETHER
From “nice to meet you”
to “did you see that?”
When two families come together, not everyone knows each other yet. Mike gives them an instant connection: a shared laugh, an astonishing moment and something to talk about. Before long, guests from both sides are joining in, comparing reactions and feeling part of the same celebration.
From the first cocktail to the final toast, he works naturally around your planner, photographer, speeches and dinner service. He fills the little pauses with fun, keeping the energy going while the focus stays where it belongs — on you.
Mike was one of the best decisions we made for our reception. He had people from both sides laughing together within minutes, and weeks later our guests were still talking about the magic.

The Reception Deception
Your guests don’t need to take their seats for the magic to begin. Mike mingles during cocktails, visits tables and creates personal moments of astonishment right in their hands. Cards, coins and borrowed objects become the spark for laughter and conversation.
It’s award-winning close-up magic with plenty of personality: clean, funny and engaging for guests of every generation. Everyone gets to enjoy the fun without being embarrassed or made the target of a joke.
One year later and I’m still hearing from the guests at our wedding about Mike’s magic. I have 2 friends that have booked him for their weddings.
A PERSONAL TOUCH
Something borrowed,
something bewildering.
A familiar object. An impossible surprise. A memory that feels like it belongs to your celebration.
Custom tricks and scripts can feature the couple, wedding party or someone special in the family. Mike can weave personal details into the magic, creating a moment that’s funny, surprising and uniquely yours — whether it’s for the newlyweds, a proud parent or a much-loved grandparent.
Mike created a special trick featuring my husband and me, and it felt like it had been made just for our wedding. It was funny, surprising and one of the moments our guests remember most.
MORE REASONS TO CELEBRATE
A great party deserves
great entertainment.
The fun goes beyond the wedding day. Showers, bachelor and bachelorette parties, anniversaries, birthdays and small home gatherings are all opportunities to give your guests something unexpected.
Choose strolling magic that moves with your party, or bring everyone together for a stand-up comedy magic show. Mike combines laugh-out-loud comedy, impossible magic and playful audience participation in a performance that feels personal to your guests.
The humor is clean and non-offensive, the participation is never embarrassing, and the laughs come naturally.
I hired Mike for my sister's bachelorette and he was the highlight of the weekend! He brought humor and unbelievable tricks that we are still trying to wrap our heads around. I definitely recommend hiring him for any event - he will customize his show to exactly what you need for the occasion. Thanks again Mike!
