Wedding Receptions- it’s all about your guests!

Phil Smith 28th August 2023
You've been planning your special day for some time now, it's getting real close. The venue was booked a year ago, the flowers ordered, the caterer, but what about the reception? An open bar/cash bar isn't entertainment, and not everyone drinks. What do you do for your wedding reception? Wedding receptions in Maine often hire me (wedding magician) to help make their guests relax and enjoy the reception until the bridal party arrives to the venue. A wedding magician helps transform the atmosphere from a dull wait into something memorable! You want to keep your guests happy so you can…

Festivals happen in the summer and fall for all kinds of events; like town celebrations, schools end of school or fall festivals, to holiday festivals. In a nutshell it's to allow the school, community, or towns to celebrate something they are proud of or want to highlight in a positive way.

The Magic of Project Graduations

Phil Smith 14th October 2021
Parents of High Schools back in the 80's created a chemical free night on graduation night for seniors. To many drinking and driving accidents happened with seniors on graduation nights; so a totally fun night was started to make graduations safe. Entertainment, food, and fun are the building blocks of seniors fun times on these events. Entertainment comes in the form of DJ's, Hypnotists, magicians, bounce inflatables, caricature artists, comedians, temporary tattoos, to chair massages. Depending on the fund raising of that senior class will depend on how many extra fun activities they can provide:) I have been performing at…
