Wedding Magician Surrey

Close-up wedding magic for Surrey's country house hotels, manor venues and Surrey Hills celebrations.

About Wedding Magician Surrey

Surrey’s country house hotels, manor venues and golf club function rooms make for some of the most elegant weddings in the South East – and the Surrey Hills, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, provide a stunning backdrop for outdoor drinks receptions and photographs. Close-up magic fits naturally into that kind of refined, relaxed atmosphere.

Pete performs at Surrey weddings from Guildford and Reigate to Dorking and Egham – including country house venues like Barnett Hill, Great Fosters, Smallfield Place near Horley and Macdonald Frimley Hall in Camberley – adapting the act to whichever moment of the day needs filling – the drinks reception, the wedding breakfast, or the evening reception once the dancing takes a breather. The result: guests genuinely talking about the magic days, sometimes years, later.

Why Surrey Couples Book Pete

  • Experience at country house hotels, manor venues and marquee weddings
  • Elegant, clean close-up magic suited to a refined wedding atmosphere
  • Fully insured, punctual and used to working alongside venue schedules

Surrey Venues Where Pete Has Performed

Booked by the couple getting married, not by the venue:

  • Great Fosters, Egham
  • Barnett Hill Hotel, near Guildford
  • Macdonald Frimley Hall Hotel & Spa, Camberley
  • Smallfield Place, near Horley
  • Coltsford Mill, a converted watermill near Oxted
  • Nonsuch Mansion, Sutton
  • Royal Mid Surrey Golf Club and Kingswood Golf Club
  • The Jockey Club at Epsom Downs Racecourse

When the Magic Fits Into the Day

The drinks reception is the most popular slot and the one that solves a real problem: while you’re having photographs taken, your guests are standing around and half of them have never met. Close-up magic turns that hour into the part people remember.

The wedding breakfast works differently – Pete moves table to table between courses, so each group gets its own performance rather than one show everyone watches at once. He never performs over the speeches or the first dance. Surrey’s country house venues often have gardens and terraces worth using, and close-up magic works just as well outside as in.

What Affects the Cost

  • How long you need, and which parts of the day you want covered.
  • Guest numbers. Above roughly 150 it is worth discussing timings or a second performer.
  • The date. Saturdays from May to September book up first.

No travel surcharge anywhere in Surrey. There is a fuller breakdown in the guide to what a wedding magician costs in the UK.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

I am based in Orpington, Greater London, UK, but regularly perform at high-profile events nationwide and internationally - including regularly across Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Essex, Hertfordshire and Buckinghamshire.

Most bookings run one to two hours of mixed-and-mingled close-up magic, though I offer flexible packages from a short 45-minute slot up to a full day's entertainment - whatever suits your event.

The Magic Circle is Britain's most respected society for magicians, founded in 1905. It isn't a membership you can simply pay for - every applicant has to pass a formal examination (or submit a thesis) in front of a panel of existing members, demonstrating real skill and knowledge of the craft, before being admitted. I've been a Member since 2016.
