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.

I met James at a party for my father in law's 80th where he delighted adults and kids alike with his tricks. He has a very easy going nature and was great with children. Would highly recommend.

James performed at my 80th birthday party. He really entertained the guests with his magic and has a great personality to really entertain. I would highly recommend him to make any party go well.

We had James perform at our wedding during cocktail hour and in-between courses of our meal, and he was absolutely fantastic! Some of our guests were a little sceptical when we mentioned we’d booked a magician, but every single one of them has since told us it was one of the best parts of the day. The tricks were mind-blowing, and James was so engaging, funny, and easy to talk to. He created such a fun, magical atmosphere and added a truly memorable element to our wedding. We couldn’t recommend him highly enough!

James has a perfect combination of skills and personality. He kept adults and children enthralled. He also worked as the MC at my son's wedding. I would willingly use James again if I need an entertainer.

James was so easy to work with arranging his attendance at our son and daughter in law's wedding. From the first contact to the amazing tricks and fun that he made happen on the day, everything was so relaxed. A truly nice person it was obvious he wanted to help make the day special and cared about what he was doing and the role he took in the celebrations.
And the day itself, I really cannot put into words how much of an impact he made with the guests, putting everyone at ease, making them laugh and wonder at the tricks. He helped the day run so smoothly liaising with the wedding planner and other suppliers. I would totally recommend James for any event, you won't be disappointed.

WOW what a guy !!! Not only is he an exceptional magician / host , he is genuinely a great guy.
We hit it off almost immediately, flowing into a lovely bit of banter and camaraderie.
This leading on to conversation about sharing a very similar performers mindset and outlook on going above and beyond for our couples.
Him being an expectant father again also gave us a connection, exchanging performing father stories as part of the DAD club lol. We had such a laugh.
You can really see how much he loves his job , the guy didn't stop smiling and embracing the magical moments he was creating and it was great to be part of that.
However it didn't stop there... He was more than happy to help be my ‘sound tech’ for my opener and also allowed me to use his insanely clever meta glasses during my performance.
I have to say entrusting me with those was in my opinion such a generous act of kindness,
a trait in which I hold above most.
In a nutshell not only Is James a next level magician and host but also has a kind and caring character which reflects in his manner and work. if you want a personable magician / host then look no further.
I really do hope we have the pleasure of working together again in the future.
Best wishes

Absolutely thrilled to leave a 5-star review for our wedding host James! From the very start, James was incredible—always staying in touch and making sure every detail was perfect. Nothing was ever too much trouble for him. We’re so grateful he even rearranged his schedule to fit our wedding in.

On the big day, James was out of this world. He kept everything running smoothly and took all the stress off our shoulders. He also brought along his circus gear to keep the kids entertained, which went down an absolute treat—even the adults had a good go at it! 😂

To top it all off, he wowed our guests with his incredible magic—everyone was totally blown away. We couldn’t have asked for a better host and would 1000% recommend James to anyone looking for someone professional, talented, and genuinely caring. Thank you, James, for making our day so special and unforgettable!
