Wedding Magician for London, Kent & Across the UK
I’m Bob Pound, a professional wedding magician with more than 30 years of experience performing at weddings, private events and corporate occasions across London, Kent and throughout the UK, including performing at a Royal Wedding.
My style of magic is relaxed, interactive and designed to happen right in front of your guests. There are no camera tricks and no awkward participation — just strong, memorable magic performed naturally amongst your family and friends.

Close-Up Magic for Your Wedding
Close-up magic works particularly well at weddings because it can fill the natural gaps in the day and help guests who may not know each other start talking.
I can perform during:
The drinks reception
While photographs are being taken
The wedding breakfast
Between courses
The evening reception
The period between the wedding breakfast and evening entertainment
The performance can be tailored around your timings and venue.
“Thank you so so much for your magnificent performance at 100 Barrington. Wow, you were amazing ! The feedback has been wonderful, and fully deserved. You are simply the best.”

Magic During the Drinks Reception
The drinks reception is one of the best times for wedding magic.
While photographs are being taken, I move between small groups of guests performing close-up magic.
It helps keep everyone entertained and creates an easy way for different groups of family and friends to start talking to each other.

Table Magic During the Wedding Breakfast
I can also perform around the tables during your wedding breakfast.
Rather than putting on a formal show, I visit individual tables and perform directly for small groups.
This means the magic becomes part of the atmosphere of the wedding without interrupting the meal or speeches.
A Special Moment for the Bride and Groom
I always like to create something specifically for the couple.
That might be a piece of magic involving both of you, a photograph, a playing card, a borrowed object or something connected personally to your wedding.
The aim is to create a moment that feels like it belongs to your wedding rather than simply performing the same trick for everybody.
Wedding Magic That Brings People Together
One of the biggest benefits of having a magician at a wedding is not simply the magic itself.
Weddings bring together different groups of people — family, friends, colleagues and guests who may never have met before.
Magic gives them an immediate shared experience.
People laugh, react and start talking.
Very quickly, a group of strangers can feel like one group.
Experienced Professional Wedding Magician
I have been performing professionally for more than 30 years and have worked at weddings, private events and major corporate occasions throughout the UK and internationally.
Alongside performing, I have also worked behind the scenes as a magic consultant for television and live productions.
My approach is simple: the magic should feel impossible, but your guests should also enjoy the person performing it.
I never want guests to feel embarrassed or uncomfortable.
A Unique View of Your Guests’ Reactions
With permission, I can sometimes capture short moments of the magic from my point of view using smart glasses.
This can give you a completely different perspective of your wedding day — genuine reactions, laughter and surprise from your guests as the magic happens right in front of them.
Any footage is only taken with permission, and I can share suitable clips with the bride and groom afterwards as an extra memory from the day.
