Parties – James Maidment Dorset Close up wedding magician

Party Magic

Wether you are hosting a special birthday party, an anniversary celebration, a company Christmas party or celebrating for the sake of it.
I can provide magical entertainment that will blow your guests away and get them chatting, laughing and in to the party mood.
Wether it’s Aunt Rose, your little nephew Daniel or your hard to impress friends. I’ll make sure they are all having a great time and will be talking about the party for months to come.
Everyone has seen magic on T.V. but seeing it in front of your eyes will make your brain explode.

Not only can I provide close up magic, but I can also provide a comedy mind reading cabaret show. Great for after dinner or before speeches and presentations at awards nights.

“True professional who made everyone at the tables feel part of the act. Really got people talking and helped to generate an amazing atmosphere in the room. Well worth investing in Jamie for your party or event. Totally recommend”

Mr & Mrs Adcock – RNLI College, Poole

The most popular times for me to entertain include;

As part of a drinks reception and meet and greet
Between courses during the meal
After food during coffees and before any evening entertainment (quizzes/DJ etc)

From having attended hundreds of events, wether it’s a school prom, military ball or family gathering. The entertainment is always important part of the time together and I will make it one to remember.

"He absolutely blew people's minds and was the topic of conversation for days after!"

- Beth, Corporate Event, Dorset

For larger events I can provide additional magicians and alternative entertainers such as stilt-walkers, caricaturists, jugglers, musicians, fire performers and many more.

I can also suggest suppliers for stages, sound and lighting hire, casino tables, photo-booths, DJ’s, bar hire and other extraordinary ideas.

In the past 20 years of professional performing I have experienced a lot of events, I would love to help if you have any questions or would like any suggestions.

We cannot recommend James highly enough! He was absolutely incredible at our wedding ant English Oak Vineyard and had everyone completely captivated by his amazing magic. Our guests were left in awe of his skills, but it was especially wonderful seeing the reaction of our sons, who simply couldn’t believe their eyes and still talk about it now! We really appreciated the time James took to share his magic with them and make them feel so involved - it was such a special part of the day for us. James has a phenomenal ability to capture a crowd and his attention to detail is second to none. He was a huge crowd-pleaser and had everyone talking! What made the experience even more special were the personal touches. The personalised bottle of wine and the framed keepsake card trick were such thoughtful surprises and genuinely meant so much to us (still baffled as to how you did it!!) They are wonderful mementos that we will be able to treasure and look back on as a reminder of our special wedding day. We would wholeheartedly recommend James to anyone looking for something truly memorable - not just for weddings but for all kinds of events. His talent is amazing and his ability to connect with people and make them feel part of the magic is what really sets him apart. Thank you so much, James, for helping make our wedding day even more magical!

We honestly couldn’t recommend James enough! ✨🪄 He did a fantastic job of keeping our wedding guests entertained with his amazing magic throughout the day. He was brilliant at getting everyone involved, and our guests are still talking about some of the tricks he performed! James was also our Toastmaster and did an absolutely fantastic job. He kept everything running smoothly, made sure everyone knew what was happening, and brought such a fun, friendly and professional atmosphere to the day. He went above and beyond to help make our wedding day so special, and we couldn’t have asked for anyone better. Thank you so much, James, for helping make our day truly unforgettable! ❤️✨

To have a magician of this quality for my 80th Birthday was the best... we all had a fantastic time, he kept us laughing as well as some outrageous magic and James was having a ball, it's the best thing we could have done, enjoyable, fun, laughter the time went by so quickly but the show was something we will all remember for years to come....

I booked James as a surprise for my now husband on our wedding day. James was absolutely incredible and my husband was in awe of all his tricks. He also kept the children entertained with balloons. Wedding breakfasts can be a little bit mundane but James made it into another amazing fun filled part of the day.

If you are planning a special event and get the opportunity to book James, do it! He is amazing. Not only a fantastic magician but so funny, kind and personable. He had our wedding guests dumb founded and roaring with laughter. He even did a special trick just for the bride and groom which was very touching and so clever. No idea how he any of it but it was so entertaining. Thanks James, ur a star!

First class magician and entertainer for a wedding we recently attended. James made the whole day so enjoyable. Trying to think of my own excuse to host a party so we can enjoy the experience all over again!
