Last update: June 2026

Your wedding day should be filled with unforgettable moments, laughter, and memories that your guests will talk about long after the last dance. That’s where I come in.

I’m Andy Magicman, a full-time professional close-up magician with many years of experience entertaining at weddings across Essex, Hertfordshire, London and throughout the UK. My style combines incredible sleight of hand, mind reading and interactive magic that happens right in your guests’ hands, creating genuine moments of amazement and bringing people together.

One of the biggest challenges at any wedding is keeping guests entertained during the natural gaps in the day. Whether it’s during the drinks reception while photographs are being taken, between courses during the wedding breakfast, or as evening guests arrive, I help break the ice, spark conversations and keep the atmosphere buzzing.

What makes my performances special is that every moment is personal. Guests don’t simply watch a show; they become part of it. Cards appear in impossible places, borrowed objects vanish and reappear, thoughts are revealed, and memories are created that become part of your wedding story.

From intimate celebrations to large weddings with hundreds of guests, I tailor my performance to suit your day and your guests. For larger weddings, I can provide additional professional magicians from my trusted team, ensuring every guest experiences the magic without feeling rushed. This is particularly popular for weddings with 150+ guests or where entertainment is required across multiple areas.

I also understand that popular wedding dates can book up quickly. If I am already committed to another event, I can often still help by providing one of the exceptional magicians from my team. Every magician I work with has been carefully selected and performs to the same high standards of professionalism, reliability and audience engagement that my clients have come to expect from Andy Magicman.

I work closely with photographers, videographers and venue staff to ensure everything runs smoothly, allowing you to relax and enjoy your wedding while I keep your guests entertained.

Many couples tell me that booking a magician was one of the best decisions they made for their wedding, and it’s easy to see why. Great magic creates natural laughter, stunning reactions and those candid moments that make a wedding truly memorable.

If you’re looking for something unique that will leave your guests amazed and talking about your wedding for years to come, I’d love to be part of your special day. Let’s create some magic together. ♠️

Amazing addition to our wedding and it wouldn’t of been the same without him

Best decision we made having Andy. It really added to our wedding day and guests were raving about how amazing he was, and comment on how he is the highlight of the wedding still trying to work out how he did certain tricks.
Andy was at the wedding for a considerable amount of time but knew when to interact with guests at all the right moments. We couldn’t have asked for more and will defintly be booking Andy for future events!

Just Magical!

We booked Andy for our wedding in May to entertain our evening guests. We had so many lovely comments from our guests saying that they were absolutely blown away by Andy’s magic and that he was the best magician they’d ever seen!
Andy is a genius at reading his audience and knowing what he can get away with. This caused some absolute belly laughs all round!
We would highly recommend Andy for any occasion, if you are looking for an amazing and professional magician, who has totally mastered his art!

A magical experience.

Andy blew our mind at a wedding fair which is why we didn’t even have to think about asking him to do his thing on our big day. We did not get to see much of his act on the wedding day as it was when we had our photos, the one trick we did see was amazing and our guests are still talking about it!!! Everyone was very impressed.

A thoroughly great chap, and an amazing magician!

We had the delight of Andy joining us at our wedding on the 19th April 2022 in Coggeshall, Essex.

Andy is an absolute gent, and a pleasure to be around, effortlessly gliding around our guests and wowing them with his magic. Everyone was amazed by his work, leaving Andy the topic of many a conversation throughout the day.

Andy held a consultation in the days leading up to our wedding, ensuring that his magic was pitched at all age groups. On the day, to us, Andy was first and foremost a guest. His ability to mingle with everyone, showing off his brilliant magic as he goes is unparalleled.

My only gripe is that my wife and I couldn’t have his magic all to ourselves! I could happily watch Andy work all day and still be equally astounded through the sheer number & variety of his tricks.

A thoroughly great chap, and an amazing magician. Look no further than Andy Jamieson!

Just absolutely epic

Andy was professional and personable from the first meeting. He arrived early as our ceremony was near the entrance. Our guests were literally in awe of his trickery and honestly he was such a pleasure to have around. If only we could do it all over again.
If you’re considering hiring Andy, just do it. You will not regret it. Just the perfect addition to our wedding.

Highly recommend

We booked Andy for our wedding back in Sept 2019. He was absolutely brilliant and all our guests absolutely loved him & his magic. He was especially great with my brother & nephew who are deaf … he interacted with them & got them involved in the tricks making sure that they not only were left gob smacked but that they understood what was happening. We recommend Andy to everyone for any event they have coming up.

About Andy

Hi, I'm Andy.

I'm a professional close-up magician who has spent years helping people create unforgettable moments at weddings, corporate events, trade shows, private parties and special occasions across the UK.

My journey into magic started the same way it does for many magicians: with curiosity. I became fascinated by the idea of creating moments that seemed impossible, and what began as a hobby soon developed into a lifelong passion. Over time, that passion grew into a full-time career that allows me to meet incredible people and perform at some truly memorable events.

What I love most about magic isn't fooling people. It's the reactions.

Seeing someone burst into laughter, stare in disbelief, or look at their friends with a completely baffled expression never gets old. Those genuine moments of amazement are what make every performance worthwhile. Whether I'm performing for a wedding couple and their guests, entertaining clients at a corporate event, or helping exhibitors attract attention at a trade show, my goal is always the same: to create memorable experiences that people will talk about long after the event has ended.

My style of magic is modern, interactive and personal. There are no rabbits, top hats or elaborate stage props. Instead, the magic happens right in front of people, often in their own hands. Guests don't simply watch the magic; they become part of it.

Over the years, I've had the privilege of performing for major brands, celebrities, professional sportspeople and thousands of guests at events across the UK. However, whether I'm entertaining a small group of friends at a private party or hundreds of guests at a large corporate function, I approach every event with the same enthusiasm and attention to detail.

Away from the magic, I'm a husband, father, football supporter and keen nature photographer. Photography gives me the opportunity to slow down and appreciate the world around me. I love spending time outdoors, camera in hand, capturing wildlife and moments in nature that many people walk straight past without noticing. In many ways, photography and magic have a lot in common. Both are about creating and preserving moments that make people stop, look and appreciate something extraordinary.

One of the things I enjoy most about being a magician is meeting people from all walks of life. Every wedding has its own story. Every company has its own culture. Every audience is different. That's what keeps the job exciting and why I still look forward to every event as much as I did when I first started performing professionally.

I believe great entertainment should do more than simply fill time. It should break the ice, bring people together, create conversations and leave guests with memories they'll still be talking about weeks, months or even years later. That's exactly what I aim to achieve every time I perform.

If you're planning your wedding and would like to find out how close-up magic can help create an unforgettable experience for your guests, I'd love to hear from you.

I look forward to helping make your wedding truly memorable.
