Ray was fabulous, he was amusing and very polished, a great entertainer
I booked Ray as a surprise for my husband on our wedding day back in August - the man is definitely magic! He wowed all of our guests, of every age range. We've got a couple of mementos from Ray's act too which still boggle my mind when I look at them! Ray was a pleasure to deal with from start to finish, very friendly and professional and I'm so glad we booked Ray! Recommend 100% for parties of all ages!
"I assume a ranking of 5 is 'excellent'.
Ray's act was thoroughly enjoyed by all in our group. He arrived in good time and was very easy to get on with. He liaised with me before and during our event to ensure he fitted in with our timings. I would definitely recommend him as an excellent entertainer."
Ray was very proffessional and easy to work with throughout the process. The kids and also adults enjoyed his show very much. We would definitely recommend him.
I'm so pleased we booked Magic Ray, it was so easy and straight forward from start to finish. Ray was amazing at our party, great games and tricks with the kids and the adults loved the close up tricks too. I'll be recommending Ray to anyone planning a kids party.
Thank you for helping to make my mother's birthday special last evening. She really enjoyed it and we all enjoyed your magic.
We wanted to say thank you once again for a wonderful show for both kids and adults alike, highly entertaining and enjoyed by all.
Was absolutely fantastic at our preschool graduation kept 30 4-5 year old year children entertained for an hour which is amazing in its self. Everyone absolutely loved it and had great feedback from parents regarding the magic show. Thank you so much so a lovely guy also.
Ray provided a full day of magical fun for the children at our event. He was able to adapt to suit the varying ages and numbers who attended. They were spellbound by the close up magic, shows and balloon modelling. We wouldn’t hesitate to book him again. Many thanks Ray!

Brilliant! Definitely recommend for all occasions. Ray attended my sons(9yrs)christening and kept the children engaged with his magic and balloon making! Excellent with the children and very friendly!
Thank you for performing at Charlie’s 6th birthday party, all the children and adults enjoyed the show! Would highly recommend
A great magician - kept all ages entertained and engaged by his tricks. They surprised and enlivened the whole party. How he did them was anyone's guess! The children loved the whole show plus the tabletop antics. The adults loved the fact that Ray managed to create laughter through clean jokes and clever tricks. The adults were also wowed by the mesmerising aptitude that Ray displayed. Thank you so much Ray for making it a truly memorable experience for everyone involved. Until next time ... and there will be one. Can't wait to book you again.
Performed at my 30th birthday event. Everyone absolutely loved it. Thanks Ray
I very much appreciated Ray attending our wedding venue. It was a very small wedding reception and entirely not his fault, but I think he invaded people's personal space a bit when they were trying to chat to other guests. I know he was trying to give value for money and that was his job, so please do not take this comment to heart. In a larger group of people I think this would have worked better.
Did not entertain the children or adults we were very disappointed and embarrassed

Wedding Magic
A wedding or civil partnership is one of the happiest days of a couples life, and having a magician to entertain has become a very popular addition to this special day. The Bride and Groom will get a unique souvenir for their Special Day.
If you want to make your house party more memorable, then Magic is the perfect way to make your party stand out from the rest. Ray will give your family and friends a memorable and funny magical experience to take away with them.
Childrens Magic
As a children's entertainer I can provide a package of fun, games, a magic show, and balloon models for all the children. The games I do are non-elimination games (so none of the children feel upset because they have "lost") with prizes, and team games, followed by a bright and colourful magic show with lots of audience involvement. I provide all the prizes. The children take part in many of the magic tricks including with Chico the Monkey (puppet not a real monkey), and after the magic show balloon models for all children attending - dogs, giraffes, rabbits, swans, flowers, swords, hats, hearts, frogs, etc and magicians assistant stickers. If there is a Birthday Child, they can help create a painting magically which whey will get to keep, as well as a high quality magicians assistant certificate.
