Weddings- the Rehearsal Dinner, it’s about connections!

Phil Smith 27th April 2023
So much planning goes into the day of event; location usually many months to even 2 years booked ahead of the wedding date. The flowers (meeting with your florist so they can help you bring about your colors, style and vision. The food (at hotel/destination) or professional caterer help plan the perfect meal, etc... The rehearsal dinner is all about connections; family and friends that perhaps have not met till this event. What kind of planning has gone into the rehearsal dinner? Of course it depends on budgets, themes, etc... Last year one of the rehearsal dinners I performed at…

High School Graduation parties ideas-

Phil Smith 9th February 2022
Holy cow it's time to get all your ducks in a row for your seniors Project Graduation night. That's their chemical free fun night to hang with fellow classmates in a safe environment. It's up to you (the parent committee) to choose fun entertainment that will keep them entertained and engaged. Magicians are a terrific solution to the nights plans; roaming magic (Strolling) is that WOW factor that brings the entertainment to small groups of seniors as they are eating, doing other activities, etc...

Halloween & Magic entertainment (2 things that go together.)

Phil Smith 7th September 2021

Magic is a natural because it started out as Trick or Treat (trick is in the phrase kids all say while dressing up in costumes on the hunt for free candy.) Who doesn't remember dressing up and trying to bob for apples, eating candy corn, or trying to win the best costume at your school Halloween party?:) Witches and Warlocks create magic so the symbol of magic is a big part of the fun for those of us just looking for candy and…

Wedding Magic

Phil Smith 21st June 2021
Planning your wedding is challenging, because it's your big day and you want it perfect. A wedding magician working the cocktail hour is the perfect start to your reception. I often work the cocktail hour(s) at wedding receptions to help couples relax as they take all the time they need to get the bridal photos correct at the ceremony spot/venue. Most couples worry about getting back to their reception where their family and guests are waiting for you (I know I did when I got married.) Imagine, instead you have some time to sip some champagne in the limo with…
