Real magic!!!!!

Where do I begin with Sam as he is truly phenomenal! From first contact he was friendly, informative and strived to adapt to whatever we wanted to make his performance perfect for the day. Once the day came everyone was blown away. There’s nothing cheesy about Sam, he’s such a cool guy that just blends in seamlessly, his tricks were mind boggling, the kids show was engaging and amusing, our “special trick” during the wedding breakfast left everyone baffled and gave us with some wonderful keepsakes and all of the ice between our guests was broken with his mix and mingle talking point. He was the stand out thing from our day and every single guest has spoken about him since - my MOH even booked him for her wedding next year! Sam you are amazing and I can’t wait to see you again when I’m not the bride so I can enjoy even more of your amazing magic!
