This magician was jaw-droppingly amazing! His tricks had people stunned! We had him for our wedding and he was so brilliant, I would absolutely, definitely recommend him! He also gave great service before the day, taking a call with me to run through everything and checking he wore the right outfit for the day. 10/10 - I would definitely recommend. Thank you Dvishan!

"From the minute I chose Carl I knew I wouldn’t be disappointed and I wasn’t. He completely blew our minds with his work and I still can’t understand how he did his magic that was in front of our faces. Not tv, our faces! I’ve always been able to guess and call out magicians I’ve seen - (I’m cheeky like that ;) but Carl was on another level we can’t explain. True MAGIC!! He’s the best magician I’ve ever come across and will absolutely be using and recommending to anyone I know having an event in the future. Worth every penny and more. As an extra he’s so friendly, professional, punctual and was a really blessing to have on our big day. Thank you very much. :)))"
