Meet the Key Person

Meet Chris Well, hello there! It's me, Chris—your go-to guy for making your wedding unforgettable. Sure, this gig pays the bills, but my passion for making people laugh, have fun, and create memory-making moments truly drives me. I've been performing magic since I was ten, and let’s say I've gotten pretty good at it over the years. Whether it's a crowd of your fun-loving friends or your critical in-laws, I adapt to any audience. Except for kids—I hate kids. But I'm guessing you do too, so we'll get on famously! All jokes aside, the best compliment I ever received was, "The best thing about you as a magician is you just GET IT." You see, it's not just about pulling off magic tricks; it's about how you make your guests feel. That's the real magic, and it's something most magicians overlook. So, if you want your wedding to be an event full of laughter and unforgettable moments, I'm your guy.
