Highly Recommend - “He’s Magggiiccccc!”

We were truly blessed to have Frank entertain at our wedding. He was absolutely phenomenal.

As a former student of his 15 to 20 years ago, I was already familiar with how friendly, organised and warming he is as a person. What we didn’t know was how much we would be blown away by his Magic.

So many guests have since commented how they were amazed by his tricks and skills! A couple of our favourites include the bespoke romantic tricks for our parents and family along with the special adaptations for Brides and Grooms on the day!

It was truly our pleasure and privilege!

Communication and organisation was second to none. We highly recommend Frank to anyone looking for a magician for any time of occasion. We certainly will book again when the opportunity arises!

Thank you Frank and we hope to see you soon.

Exceptional

We hired Frank for my brother’s wedding and honestly, he completely exceeded expectations. From the moment he arrived, he had everyone laughing, amazed, and fully entertained. The magic itself was incredible, but what really stood out was how personable, professional, and engaging he was with all of the guests.

One of the most special parts of the day was when he took the bride and groom aside for a more intimate, personal performance just for them. They were absolutely blown away by it and said afterwards it was one of the most memorable moments of the whole wedding. To top it all off, he even gave them a personalised gift to take home, which was such a thoughtful touch and made the experience feel even more unique and meaningful.

He managed to bring together people of all ages and created such a fun atmosphere throughout the reception. Even guests who said they’re “hard to impress” were genuinely speechless.

If you’re thinking about booking entertainment for a wedding or event, I genuinely couldn’t recommend him more highly. Worth every penny and a huge part of why the day felt so special. Thank you again for making my brother’s wedding unforgettable!

Great entertainment

Had Frank at our wedding, very entertaining with both adults and children, worked the tables and room at quiet moments between parts of the wedding to fill those gaps that can occur on a long day.
Polite, poffesuonal, easy to book, easy to contact.
Would highly recommend

Perfect Addition to our Wedding Celebrations

We booked Frank after having a Zoom meeting with him, for our wedding, and were amazed at the magic tricks he did for us during the meeting.

We booked him to perform table magic as our evening guests were arriving, and the function room was being prepared. People were both fascinated and entranced by him with his magic skills. He also performed a special magic trick for us, which quite astounded us.

We would highly recommend Frank for anyone who was planning to have a magician at their wedding. It really is a great addition to the special day.

A Magical Experience

Frank entertained our guests delightfully. During the photos, when everyone was getting to know everyone, Frank was the bridge that brought us all together with his easy going attitude and slick performance, we were all in awe and the laughter was infectious. Well done Frank. You blended perfectly into our dress code of black tie with great understanding. We very much enjoyed your company and the entertainment you brought to our son’s fabulous wedding day. You even managed to delight the beautiful bride and her groom in a personalised moment so no one was left out! Thanks - we would recommend you to anyone.

Unbelievable

We had our wedding party recently and I knew I wanted a magician to add that something extra and fun for our guests. I searched and enquired with several magicians in my quest to find the right one. After my initial phone call with Frank I knew I’d found the magician I’d been looking for. And wow is all I can say he did not disappoint!! Everything was just amazing, from the communication prior to the event, he even sent a text on the day to say when he was setting off and to say he’d arrived at the venue! And then the magic! Unbelievable! He had our guests mesmerised by the tricks. I had messages from my guests the day after one of them said ‘I still can’t get over frank’. My mother in law was stunned how he managed to turn a pack of cards in between her hands into a clear box. I really cannot thank you enough, you were fantastic Frank. If you are searching for a magician for your event I promise you will not disappointed with Frank, he’s phenomenal. Thankyou once again Frank, all the best for the future

Magic Frank

We booked Magic Frank for our wedding and he did not disappoint. He really entertained us and our guests, personalising tricks to us and family members. He made the experience even more special by finishing with a magic trick for us, leaving us with a special momento of his magic and the day.

Wedding Party Magic

Frank graced us with his presence at our wedding reception. He managed to weave his way between all of the dad dancing and clamorous music to provide everyone with an exceptionally magical experience. His communication prior to the day was top notch too, we had every confidence that he'd be providing the extra special touch to our evening.. and he really did! Thanks for everything, Frank!

Frank had everyone amazed!

From the beginning Frank was very friendly and professional. He kept regular contact right up to the event, asking for information that would help with his illusions. He did a personal trick for us and gave it to us as a momento of our wedding day to take home, other guests also took home momento’s. He arrived well before the allotted time and stayed slightly over as well. We would definitely hire him again, in fact I’m looking for an excuse!!

Unbelievable close up magic.

What a brilliant way to start a night!!!
We employed Magic Frank to get our Golden Wedding party off with a bang and boy, did it work .
Our guests were all mostly of a certain age and they had all been around the block a few times, see it all and done it all - seen magicians on TV, on cruise ships, weekends away, dinners, wedding and whatever else - but Franks close up magic floored them all. There was not a person in the room who did not compliment us on the magic show. There were two or three devotees of the art of magic and had Frank doing extra tricks at very close range trying to trip him up but they never managed it.
He was brilliant with both the magic and his easy approach and style.
If you are looking for a magician who is guaranteed to deliver and entertain your guest in the most amazing way, look no further. Magic Frank is your man!!!

Simply Magical! Highly recommended

Magic Frank will be providing entertainment for our guests at my wedding in December. We've had a demonstration by video call and he's amazing. The magic takes your breath away and he's such a personable, likeable chap that you feel relaxed and entertained throughout.

I can't wait to see how amazed our guests will be on the day.

The communication has been prompt, friendly and professional. Magic Frank has been very flexible and the fee is very reasonable. I cannot recommend him highly enough; he's been a delight to work with and should the need arise, I would not hesitate to book him again.

An absolute pleasure!

Magic Frank did a fantastic job at my brother's walima ceremony. He made everybody feel very comfortable and was incredibly entertaining! He also stepped in when were were running late due to an overturned lorry on the motorway. I will always recommend Frank.

Hi, I’m Frank — the person behind Magic Frank.

I’m a professional close-up magician and mind reader based in Manchester, performing at weddings across the North West. My style is relaxed, sociable and quietly sophisticated, with magic happening right in your guests’ hands.

I’m drawn to weddings because of the atmosphere — bringing people together, helping guests feel comfortable, and creating those shared moments of surprise and laughter that naturally lift the room.

You’ll usually find me during the drinks reception or between courses, moving effortlessly among small groups, helping guests connect and keeping the energy flowing throughout the day.

Outside of magic, I’m an easygoing and personable individual, and I aim to bring that same calm, friendly presence to every wedding I’m part of.

If you’re looking for something elegant, engaging, and genuinely memorable for your guests, I’d be delighted to be involved.
