Ben Enright20 September 2026Wedding reception Ian came to our wedding reception & entertained guests for the first few hours, including during the wedding breakfast. His performance helped to get the party atmosphere going, and also broke some of the ice between guests who were strangers. Superb skills and a very charismatic performer—we didn't realise we needed a magician until we spoke to Ian!Posted on Google

Henry PJ19 August 2026We booked Ian to perform at our wedding last week and he was absolutely fantastic. As the groom, I was being pulled in every direction on the day so unfortunately didn’t get to see as much of his magic as I would have liked. He did, however, perform an amazing card trick for just both me and my wife. The feedback from our guests was brilliant. Everyone I spoke to said how impressed they were, and several made a point of telling me how good he was. He managed to get around plenty of different groups throughout the day and clearly left a real impression with many of our guests still debating how he managed some of the tricks. Ian was also a pleasure to deal with and fitted seamlessly into the day. We’re really pleased we booked him and would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking to add something a little different and memorable to their wedding or event. Thanks again, Ian!Posted on Google
David Anstiss31 July 2026Ian did an amazing job at our celebration! His magic and mentalism were brilliant — slick, entertaining, and full of genuine “how did he do that?” moments. Everyone was completely engaged and left with big smiles. It really was pure magic. Highly recommended — we’ll definitely be booking him again!Posted on Google

Susan Shayler18 May 2026Ian gave a fantastic magical performance at my 70th birthday party. He mixed so well with all the guests doing his magic to small groups moving around the room ensuring everyone was enthralled.

Ian is simply amazing. He worked his magic at our wedding and was our 'Master of Ceremonies'. He supported us throughout, from lead up to the whole day. He even looked after our dog who was in attendance. His professionalism and skills in making even the shy guest relax and watch/interact with his slight of hand magical experiences is exceptional. We had the best of days and it was made even more special by having Ian there.Posted on Google

David Heath4 March 2026Amazing! Just recently my wife and myself attended a Magic Show with friends, by Ian Souch, Magician and Illusionist. Seven of us were positioned round a table and Ian came to individual tables and performed Magic and Illusions at close hand. None of us were more than a metre away from Ian and we sat there in awe of his ability to perform this Magic at such close proximity, performing Illusions and Magic that we just could not comprehend! He was extremely professional in all of the Magic performed in front of us and none of us could possibly even begin to work out how he had done any of these tricks. When tricks are done on T.V., on stage or performed at long distance, there is always an element of not being able to give it your fullest concentration but when these were done, almost next to you in such close proximity, it leaves you spellbound and awestruck, which it did with us all who were sat around our table. All of us agreed that we would like to see Ian perform again. Dave and Norma HeathPosted on Google
Mark Heath2 March 2026From the outset it is completely apparent that Ian is a world class magician, and has truly earned his place amongst the elite performers in the magic circle. No sooner has he commenced with the first trick, we were all gasping in amazement, wondering how he could perform such magic right under our very noses at our table. If this was instead seen on television, insistence upon camera trickery would be suggested beyond doubt; and yet here, we are asked to assist in the tricks, selecting cards, words, numbers, and handing over various other objects to include in the magic, with us participating fully! Ian has a tremendous sense of humour and rapport with the audience too, of all ages, interacting with great wit and enthusiasm, truly living the role. For days we were chatting about his tricks, and will all definitely ensure we see Ian as soon as we can again at his next performance, without exception. I defy anyone not to be completely blown away and in awe, left with a very satisfying feeling, that there are simply just some mysteries in life and the universe that we fail to comprehend and just simply cannot work out, however clever we feel we may be!!

Lee Allpress25 July 2024We met Ian at a wedding fayre and was astounded by his close up magic. We met to discuss Ian being part of our wedding entertainment and quickly realised Ian was much more than a magician. From the moment he was on board with us he put both our minds at rest. We knew he had it all under control. On the day of our wedding Ian was nothing less than amazing, his close up and table magic and mentalist show was brilliant, all our guests loved it. But just as important for us was knowing Ian was in control of the day, our guests, the running order of the day and other suppliers knew exactly where to be and when, we could relax knowing it was all in hand. Even when we chucked unexpected surprises and changed some of the running order (on the day) he just managed everything. We could not recommend Ian highly enough, if we could give 10 stars we would. Thank you Ian.Posted on Google

My guests all spoke very positively about the magic tricks, some tricks were amazing and it was impossible to see how he did it, I had a mixed age group and Ian was able to engage everyone from 4 years to 89 years young.

janet barkus6 June 2022I booked Ian to do his magical best at our Queen's Jubilee Street Party last Saturday afternoon. I am so glad that I did. He was superb. He was friendly and professional throughout the entire transaction from first engaging him, to saying cheerio after his wonderful stint. Communication was never an issue. His time of arrival was precise, and he certainly gave us value for money. The 45 or so guests were enthralled. This was definitely the way to get the party started - within moments people who had previously only waved to each other in passing were chatting and laughing together. Sullen teenagers were transformed into engaging and interactive young people! Ian entertained everybody from 5 years of age to some very senior adults. He left just after 4pm and everybody was still talking about his magic and his personality at 10pm. Thanks Ian.Posted on Google

Ian was also incredibly supportive during the booking process as we went through numerous date changes thanks to Covid.Posted on Google

Emily Martin4 July 2021Having Ian do magic at our wedding added a special touch to our special day. During the drinks and canapes he was dressed as a Jedi (definitely the Grooms choice!) and the more Sci-Fi orientated guests and kids really responded to it. It was a wonderful ice breaker. Ian interacted well with all guests young (the youngest was 7) and old (eldest was 70) and it really made no difference. During the sit down meal we had Ian performing between courses and again was a wonderful ice breaker and Ian spent equal time at each table. This time he was dressed much more formally but this was our personal choice. I am sure if you would Jedi or formal dress for all of it then it would not matter. I won't spoil it for any other brides/grooms that may want to book Ian but from one of his tricks we got a keep sake with a playing card which we will definitely keep and was a wonderful touch,. Overall myself and my wife are incredibly happy with what Ian added to our wedding and would 100% recommend adding him to yours. Simon and Emily MartinPosted on Google
