Chris was more than a magician; he was a pillar of support throughout our wedding journey. From planning and timing to his seamless coordination, Chris went above and beyond.
Phil & Madison, Happy couple
From beautiful country estates and historic houses to elegant hotels and contemporary wedding venues, Kent offers an incredible choice of settings for your wedding.
But the venue is only part of creating an unforgettable celebration.
The atmosphere, the way your guests interact and how effortlessly the day flows can make just as much difference.
I’m Chris Dodd, a professional wedding magician and emcee, and I combine both roles to help create a wedding that feels relaxed, entertaining and beautifully organised.
Magic And Hosting In One
Most couples don’t want to spend their wedding day worrying about what’s happening next.
That’s why my role goes beyond simply performing magic.
I’ll work with you and your venue before the wedding to understand your plans, timings and priorities.
On the day, I’ll help welcome your guests, make announcements, introduce speeches and keep the celebration moving.
And between those moments, I’ll entertain your guests with sophisticated close-up magic.
The Perfect Entertainment For A Kent Wedding
Close-up magic is particularly effective at weddings because it brings people together.
Perhaps two families are meeting for the first time.
Maybe your guests are waiting for photographs to finish.
Perhaps there’s a short gap before the wedding breakfast.
These are exactly the moments when magic works beautifully.
I’ll move naturally between groups, performing interactive magic and mind-reading that gives people something to talk about and creates genuine shared reactions.
No stage. No complicated equipment.
Just memorable entertainment that happens right in front of your guests.
Your Wedding Emcee
As your emcee, I’ll help make sure your wedding runs smoothly without making the day feel like a formal production.
My hosting can include:
✦ Welcoming your guests
✦ Making key announcements
✦ Introducing speeches and special moments
✦ Helping keep the day’s timings on track
✦ Coordinating with your venue and wedding planner
✦ Guiding guests between different parts of the celebration
✦ Helping create energy before important moments
✦ Providing PA equipment for speeches where required
Most importantly, I’ll understand your plans before the wedding so that on the day everything feels natural.
From Drinks Reception To Evening Celebration
Your entertainment can be tailored around your day.
You might choose magic during the drinks reception, table magic during the wedding breakfast and more close-up magic for your evening guests.
For couples looking for a more complete experience, I can combine all of this with full wedding emcee services.
The result is one consistent experience from the moment your guests arrive until the evening celebrations begin.
