I have been providing cocktail Hour Magic for Weddings in Boston, Mass. and New Hampshire for quite a few years…Having successfully entertained hundreds of people, I just recently came upon an article which gave me a reality check. It seems just when you think things are running smooth, you realize no amount of marketing will get you over a mind that is already “made.”

 Here is a quote from the article

“We were thinking of hiring a magician for our cocktail hour to keep guests interested and to fill in time. Is this lame?” 

What I’ve learned about humans offering advice is that you will hear mostly, if not exclusively from individuals who have zero experience in the subject at hand.   

Conclusion: Lame!

                                                                                     Here’s another open minded answer…

“I think any form of entertainment other than music is unnecessary.  Adults should be able to interact and carry on conversations with people and entertain themselves.”

There is no question that a good time will be had at a wedding without additional entertainment…face it, it’s not a funeral. But…maybe…just maybe, various entertainment might make an event memorable, unique, or dare I say “more fun.”

Whether you hire a magician or a string quartet, it will not make your event worse. If your budget allows, you can ramp up the Cocktail hour.

Conclusion: O.K. people…entertain yourselves.

 
Here is an answer from someone who has witnessed a real pro in action. (Sarcasm)

“I find magician's tacky and I would find him annoying and out of place at a wedding.  More something for a birthday party.”   

Conclusion: Annoy at a Wedding, less annoying at a Birthday Party.

 And finally, it’s really about semantics.

“Definitely not tacky, but maybe on the cheesy side.” 

Conclusion: O.K. Cheesy

 

Do you need a Magician at your Wedding? Definitely not…here’s a link to other thoughts of mine.
