Coventry Wedding Magician
Andy Field brings a quarter of a century of experience, close-up magic and comedy to weddings and events in Coventry and the surrounding area.
Your wedding day should be full of laughter, great memories and moments your guests will still be talking about long after the last dance.
As a wedding magician in Coventry, I bring people together with incredible close-up magic, comedy and plenty of interaction — without dragging everyone away from the celebrations.
I'm Andy Field, a professional close-up Coventry magician with over 25 years of experience and more than 1,000 weddings behind me.
I've spent years entertaining guests at weddings of all sizes, from intimate celebrations to large-scale events where getting everyone talking can be half the battle.
My magic has also reached a rather larger audience online, with more than 20 million YouTube views.
I've worked as a magic consultant and hand double for the BBC drama Hustle, helping bring the magic on screen to life.
But enough about me. Let's talk about your wedding.
Why hire a wedding magician in Coventry?
A wedding brings together people from different parts of your life. Family members meet friends, work colleagues meet relatives, and some guests may not know anyone beyond the person sitting next to them.
That's where close-up magic comes into its own.
Rather than asking everyone to sit down and watch a formal show, I move between groups performing astonishing magic right in front of them.
Cards change, borrowed objects do the impossible, and people find themselves wondering how on earth something happened inches from their eyes.
And because the magic is interactive, your guests become part of the experience.
There's usually plenty of laughter, a few mock accusations of cheating, and at least one person determined to work out how everything was done. Good luck with that!
When is the best time to have a wedding magician?
From the drinks reception to the wedding breakfast and evening celebrations, close-up magic gives guests something to enjoy and talk about throughout the day.
There are several opportunities to include a magician during your wedding day, depending on your plans and timings.
During the drinks reception
This is one of the most popular times for close-up magic. While you're having photographs taken, I'm entertaining your guests and giving them something to enjoy rather than leaving them wondering when the food is coming.
Magic also gives people an instant conversation starter. Even guests who have only just met can share the same impossible moment.
Between courses
If your wedding breakfast includes a natural gap between courses, close-up magic can add something unexpected to the occasion. I work around your schedule and the needs of your venue, rather than interrupting speeches or important moments.
During the evening reception
As more guests arrive and the atmosphere builds, magic can help get conversations going and bring different groups together before the dancing gets underway.
The right time depends on your wedding plans, so it's worth discussing the schedule before deciding what works best.
What makes close-up magic different?
Close-up magic happens right in front of your guests.
A stage performance asks everyone to look in one direction. Close-up magic comes to your guests.
I perform just a few feet away, often using ordinary objects and a spectator's own hands. The reactions happen naturally because people can see, touch and take part in what's happening.
My style combines sleight of hand, psychology, showmanship and comedy. I'm not there simply to demonstrate a collection of tricks.
I bring the same approach to private celebrations and parties, too. If you're planning another type of event, take a look at my party magician in Coventry page.

I'm there to entertain people, read the room and make sure the experience suits the occasion.
Some groups enjoy a bit of friendly banter; others prefer to watch quietly and try to catch me out. After more than 1,000 weddings, you learn that different groups respond in different ways.
The trick is knowing how to entertain them without making anyone feel uncomfortable or putting them on the spot.
Will a wedding magician suit our guests?
Andy Field’s close-up magic makes guest feel relaxed and motivated.
Close-up magic works particularly well when you want your wedding to feel sociable and relaxed.
It can be a great fit for:
- Traditional weddings with guests spanning several generations.
- Modern weddings where friends and family are meeting for the first time.
- Larger receptions where guests are spread across different areas.
- Drinks receptions where you want to keep the atmosphere lively.
- Evening celebrations where a little extra entertainment helps break the ice.
You don't need to be a magic fan to enjoy it, either. In fact, some of the best reactions come from people who start by saying they don't believe in magic!
My job is to entertain your guests, not lecture them about how clever a trick is. If they're laughing, reacting and sharing the experience, we're doing something right.
Experience matters when you're hiring a wedding magician
Andy worked behind the scenes on the BBC drama "Hustle"
Your wedding isn't a rehearsal. You want someone who knows how to perform for real people, work around a changing schedule and adapt to the atmosphere of the day.
I've performed at more than 1,000 weddings over a career spanning more than a quarter of a century.
I'm also a two-time S.A.M.S. Champion of Close-Up Magic, and my work has attracted millions of views on YouTube.
My work behind the scenes on the BBC drama Hustle gave me another perspective on how magic can be presented convincingly.
Live wedding entertainment is different from television, of course, but the same attention to detail matters.
You can also read feedback from couples and clients in my Google reviews. Reviews are worth taking the time to read because they give you a sense of how a magician actually performs at real events, not just how impressive their promotional photographs look.
Booking a wedding magician in Coventry
If you're planning a wedding in Coventry, the first step is to think about the kind of atmosphere you want to create.
Would you like entertainment during the drinks reception while photographs are taking place? Perhaps you'd prefer magic during the wedding breakfast or as part of the evening celebrations.
Once you have an idea of your timings and guest numbers, it's much easier to work out what will suit your day.
Your budget is another consideration, and my guide explains how much a magician in Coventry costs, including the factors that can affect the price for different types of event.
You can find out more about my performances, the occasions I cover and how I can entertain your guests on my Coventry wedding magician page.
I'm based just outside Bristol and perform at weddings and events across the region, including Coventry. If you're looking for close-up magic with strong showmanship, comedy and plenty of audience interaction, I'd be delighted to hear about your plans.
Give your guests something to talk about
Powerful and comical magic with showmanship all day long
Long after the wedding cake has been eaten and the decorations have come down, people remember how a wedding made them feel.
The laughter, the shared surprises and the moments nobody can quite explain are all part of that memory.
A good wedding magician doesn't take over your day. He adds to it, helping people relax, connect and enjoy something a little out of the ordinary.
And if your guests spend the journey home trying to work out how a signed playing card ended up somewhere it shouldn't possibly be, well, that's all part of the fun.
