Wedding Magic
Kerry's stunning scenery — from the Lakes of Killarney to the dramatic Dingle Peninsula — creates one of the world's most romantic backdrops for a wedding, and Steve Spade adds yet another magical dimension to that setting. His close-up magic during drinks receptions at Kerry's finest hotels and castle venues consistently creates the warmest, most connected atmospheres — getting every guest smiling and talking within minutes of arriving.
What to Expect
While you're taking photographs, Steve circulates among your guests — performing astonishing close-up magic that breaks the ice, warms the room, and gets everyone smiling.
As guests are seated for dinner, Steve visits each table with intimate, personalised magic — creating moments so special your guests will still be talking about them at the anniversary.
For after-dinner entertainment, Steve can perform a full stage show including his legendary escape acts — a breathtaking, romantic finale to your perfect day.
Kerry
Kerry's wedding venues are among the most photographed in Ireland — and a Kerry wedding has a character all of its own. Steve's magic fits naturally into that warmth and celebration, making every individual guest feel part of something genuinely extraordinary rather than just attending a beautiful event.
