YORKSHIRE WEDDING MAGICIAN

Yorkshire Weddng Magician Reviews

When you’re choosing a Yorkshire wedding magician, nothing is more reassuring than hearing directly from couples who have already experienced the magic. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of performing at thousands of weddings across North, West and East Yorkshire - from elegant hotel venues to rustic barns, countryside manors and marquee celebrations. The feedback I receive means the world to me, because it reflects exactly what I work hard to create: unforgettable reactions, shared moments of amazement and entertainment that lifts the whole atmosphere of the day.

My reviews highlight the same themes time and time again - how seamlessly I blend into the day, how naturally the magic sparks laughter and conversation, and how the experience becomes one of the most talked-about parts of the wedding. Couples often tell me their guests are still discussing the magic weeks, months or even years later. That lasting impact is what great wedding entertainment is all about.

Below, you’ll find genuine reviews from Yorkshire couples who have welcomed me into their day. Their words give you a clear sense of the style, professionalism and personality I bring to every wedding. If you’re looking for a wedding magician in Yorkshire who delivers not just tricks, but moments of real connection and joy, these stories will help you picture what your own day could feel like.

"We recently got married at Peckforton Castle in Cheshire and hired Mark to entertain the guests in between the Ceremony and the Wedding Breakfast and he was truly fantastic! The guests loved him, my husband and I loved him. Mark certainly has the wow factor and guests are still talking about how good he is now. He’s flexible, I changed the timings a day or two before our Wedding and Mark was more than accommodating.

Not only is he a truly amazing Magician that mesmerised us all, he’s got the personality to go with the magic! You definitely won’t be disappointed and neither will your guests! Highly recommend Mark Waddington"

"We first saw Mark at a friend’s wedding and was so impressed we booked him for a triple family party. EVERYONE was delighted with not only his fantastic performance, but his personality and how easy he could talk with every age group.

He was fun, entertaining, professional and just such a nice guy.

His magical tricks were excellent and had everyone on the edge of their seats. Happy laughing faces said it all. A night to remember.

Thank you Mark.
Absolutely highly recommend Mark to make any event fun and special."

"I mean, what can I even say?! Amazing is an understatement!

He is genuinely a real-life magic man! His tricks are STILL being talked about by our guests days later!

But it wasn’t just the magic that made him so incredible — he knew exactly how to work the crowd, had everyone laughing, and was genuinely one of the kindest, loveliest people to have at our wedding.

He was an absolute asset to our day and helped make it even more unforgettable. If you’re thinking about booking him, DO IT! You absolutely won’t regret it.

12/10 from us!"

"We booked Mark for our wedding on Saturday at Bagden Hall. I am so glad we made the decision to. Our guests were honestly wowed by him he was just amazing!!

Me and the groom were busy having photos taken but he made sure he saved time to do a couple of tricks just for us privately. One guest said “I don’t normally rate magicians but he is just amazing”

If you are thinking of booking Mark definitely do it!"

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

"What can I say other than WOW! 10/10 FROM START TO FINISH!!

I hired Mark for my partners 30th birthday and he was an absolute hit. I kept hearing people saying that he was the best magician they've ever seen, others asking for his contact details because they need to book him for their own parties. Communication with Mark was prompt and concise as well as being very friendly. If I ever hire a magician again, Mark will be the first and only person I'm contacting. Thank you for a magical night"

Kevin M - Manchester Party Magician

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

"We booked Mark for a 2 hour slot to fill the gap while I went to get photos done by the lake. I don’t know what I expected but it wasn’t that. I didn't want to leave to get my photos done, I was too busy enjoying seeing my guests faces as Mark blown their minds. Mark your people skills and knowing how to read a room was impeccable. The magic was another level and it was the best addition we had on our day. Thank you so much"

Cheryl K - Windermere Wedding Magician

"Mark is an amazing magician who we had entertain our guests at our wedding. Everyone was amazed and spoke about mark for months after (to be fair, they still do). He’s very friendly and has a laugh with you. If you are looking for a magician, don’t hesitate in booking mark! You won’t regret it!"

Ceri H - Priest House Barden Wedding Magician

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

"Where do we even begin… Mark is absolutely incredible. From start to finish he kept our guests entertained & engaged in his magic, even a year after our wedding people are still talking about Mark. He truly is one of the most down to earth, genuine people we’ve ever met & we feel so lucky to have had him as part of our special day. If I was ever a sceptic of magic, after seeing Mark’s tricks up close & personal I completely believe in magic now. He would make such a fantastic addition to your wedding day! Thank you again for being part of our wedding and we really do wish you every success in the future!"

Chelsea J - Middleton Lodge Wedding Magician

"Do you want something REALLY special for your wedding or event? Then book Mark Waddington! I had seen Mark at a birthday party years ago, and was adamant that if I ever got married, I wanted him to entertain my guests. (Many) years later, I got married, and I booked Mark straight away. My guests are still talking about him two years on! He is personable, funny, and incredibly talented - he will wow everyone at your event, and make it that bit more special. You won't regret booking Mark, I can guarantee it."

Michelle W - Falcon Manor Wedding Magician

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

"Just WOW! You are amazing!! Not only did you help us massively when someone else scammed us, you re-assured me this wouldn't happen again. You have been beyond helpful when it comes to changing our wedding because of the pandemic and communication was spot on. Me, Danny and all our guests were blown away by your magic. Not just that but the way you interacted with everyone was just outstanding. If anybody is looking for a magician then Mark is definitely your man!! Thank you so much!!"

Kirsty B - Monk Fryston Hall Wedding Magician

"My brother booked Mark as a surprise wedding present for me & my husband. Wow what an amazing surprise!! After already following Mark on social media I knew he was good, to meet him in person and see his tricks well he is just amazing!! The absolute star of the show and one of our highlights from the wedding. Mark is such a nice guy and got on with everyone from the moment he arrived. I would 100% recommend Mark for any event. One of our guests booked him after seeing him in action so we are looking forward to seeing him again soon."

Scarlett M - Gamekeepers Inn Wedding magician

"We were really excited to book Mark for our wedding day and he did not disappoint. He kept us and all our guests entertained and never failed to blow my mind with his tricks. He was funny, friendly, professional and just an all round nice guy. A lot of our guests have been raving about him ever since. Thank you Mark!"

April H - Devonshire Arms Wedding Magician

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

"Mark stepped in to perform at our wedding quite last minute, but everything happens for a reason and honestly we couldn't have been happier that he was a part of our day.

I think he'd been in the room for maybe ten minutes at most and we already had our guests coming up to us saying how amazing he was and when we got to experience it ourselves we were blown away.

From his happy and outgoing personality to his brilliant tricks, he really was the best entertainment we could've asked for.

Thank you so much."

Ruth D - Sandburn Hall Wedding Magician

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

"Mark was at our wedding Saturday , entertaining guests with his class tricks and quick witted banter , I had loads of positive feedback about him , everyone thought he was brilliant , I would highly recommended booking him for any event"

Mark M - Wedding magician in Durham

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

"Absolutely incredible performance from Mark! He was our wedding magician 11yrs ago and then we had the best surprise when we arrived at a friend's party and there he was. He was fabulous 11yrs ago but he is even more incredible now (didn't think it was possible). He was nothing short of amazing — every trick was executed flawlessly and left everyone completely stunned.

Mark is charismatic and has an excellent connection with the audience (whatever age). He doesn't just perform tricks — he creates an unforgettable experience filled with laughter, wonder, and excitement. Guests of all ages are captivated from start to finish.

If you’re looking for entertainment that will truly impress and leave people talking long after the event, I couldn’t recommend Mark more highly. A truly magical experience!"
