Excellent show of magic on a magical day.

Richard provides an excellent display of close up magic. He kept all the guests entertained with his amazing tricks and engaging personality. Really enjoyed his final special trick just for the two of us and the presentation cards with people’s lovely messages.
Would recommend Richard’s services to everyone.
