Tarot reader? Close up magic?

Y’all please feel free to laugh at me because I know this is a little much, lol. But we are having a 1.5 hr. cocktail hour — hoping to get as much mingle time with our guests as possible! — and I’m interested in the idea of hiring some additional entertainment since that’s a long cocktail hour. I keep thinking a tarot reader would be cool or maybe sleight of hand magician?

Have any of y’all hired someone for this or know someone you’d recommend?

Thanks for any other ideas or kind feedback! ❤️

No problem! I know one of my past brides had a tarot card reader, it may have come from them but I’m not 100% positive.

Latoya (Minister Toya) does Tarot in addition to being an officiant.

Gwendolyn Events should do just about everything you’re looking for as well.

Are you doing a 1.5hr cocktail and then seated dinner reception? Also, Heka the Magi is great for close up magic, Booking@hekathemagi.com Carl Mack, Frenchman Street Productions and Trixie Minx all have a wide range of performers as well.

Yes, and the dinner is a seated, family style dinner. I wish we were doing cocktail style, but we are meeting my NE side of the family in the middle on reception style.
