@OliverWardMagic www.OliverWardMagic.co.uk World record holder and multi-award winner in Entertainment and Magic Because every wedding deserves a touch of magic OLIVER WARD Magic Oliver Ward is a professional wedding and event magician, specialising in close-up, interactive magic that brings guests together and creates unforgettable moments. Tell us a bit about what you do! I perform across the UK and internationally, using sleight-ofhand, mind-reading, and visual illusions to add excitement and atmosphere to a couple’s big day. My style is modern and highly engaging - magic to get people laughing, talking, and connecting. What does a standard wedding package entail? My wedding packages are designed to fit naturally into the flow of the day. Most couples book me for the drinks reception and wedding breakfast, where I mix and mingle with guests, performing close-up magic at tables and in groups. It’s the perfect way to break the ice and keep energy high during those natural lulls. I handle everything needed for the performance, and I’m always happy to tailor the experience! What a lot of couples are doing recently is having me there for the full day so both the day and evening guests are all entertained and allows quicker socialising for the different guests. Can you describe a trick that always blows guests away! One routine that consistently amazes people involves completely imaginary dice. A guest freely imagines rolling some dice in their mind and names the number that appears - there’s no physical object and no influence. Two more guests do the same, each thinking of any number they like. Despite the choices being entirely in their imagination, I reveal that I’d already predicted all three numbers before we even began. Because nothing is touched or selected, guests are left stunned at how something so free and so impossible can be so perfectly foretold. It always gets huge reactions. What’s your greatest achievement to date? I’m proud to be an award-winning magician performing for thousands of guests. But the achievement that matters most is hearing couples say that the magic became one of the highlights of their day - those reactions, memories, and shared moments mean everything. And having a world record is always a great achievement to have up my sleeves. Creating wedding wonder OLIVER WARD MAGIC @OliverWardMagic www.OliverWardMagic.co.uk
