Wedding Magician North Yorkshire – Magical Entertainment for Your Big Day

​

​

​

​

Planning a wedding in North Yorkshire and looking for unforgettable entertainment for your guests? Close-up magic is a brilliant way to add fun, atmosphere and genuinely memorable moments to your wedding day. I’m Mark Waddington, a professional wedding magician based in Yorkshire, and I regularly perform at weddings throughout North Yorkshire.

​

From elegant country house venues and rustic barn weddings to coastal celebrations and historic locations, close-up magic fits seamlessly into weddings of every style across the county. It creates shared moments of laughter, surprise and amazement that guests remember long after the day itself.

​

​

Why Choose a Wedding Magician for Your North Yorkshire Wedding?

 

 

North Yorkshire weddings often take place in beautiful, spacious venues with relaxed schedules and stunning surroundings — and close-up magic works perfectly in that setting. There are always natural pauses during the day: while guests arrive, during photographs, or between different parts of the celebration. A wedding magician fills those moments effortlessly.

​

During the drinks reception, I mingle with guests performing close-up magic that sparks conversation and laughter. Throughout the wedding breakfast and into the evening reception, I create magical moments at tables and around the room, helping to keep the atmosphere lively and engaging without ever interrupting your plans.

​

Whether your wedding is in a rural barn, a luxury hotel, a stately home or a countryside estate, close-up magic enhances the experience and brings people together naturally.
