Brilliant Entertainment for All Ages!

I hired MKP Entertainment for my wedding renewal, and they were absolutely fantastic! David was the magician during the day and we had the photo booth for the evening, and everyone was blown away by the personal one-on-one magic. The photo booth was a huge hit too! I highly recommend MKP Entertainment. They made the wedding day truly unforgettable! Would recommend.
