A little different

Not a show happening at your guests, but with them.

A borrowed object. A surprising choice. A moment nobody quite knows how to explain.

I love magic that starts conversations rather than interrupts them. The best part is often what happens between the people watching.

Where the magic happens

Good company. Unexpected moments.

From intimate celebrations to large events, the best magic happens when people get to experience something extraordinary together.

Weddings

Close-up magic during cocktail hour, receptions, and the in-between moments that bring guests together. Plus an optional moment just for the two of you that ends with a keepsake you keep.

Private gatherings

Birthdays, anniversaries, and gatherings where everyone can be part of the experience.

Bachelorette parties

A rental, a rooftop, a brunch, or a living room. The whole group gathers around, and the bride gets a moment she’ll remember.

Corporate & special events

An easy win for holiday parties and company events. There's nothing to set up or manage, and it gets coworkers talking to each other. It works for a small team dinner or a big company celebration.

In a bride’s own words

“Hiring Brandon for my wedding was one of the best decisions I made when it came to making the day memorable. He is extremely talented and even managed to impress me with a trick over FaceTime. Brandon was professional in all of our communications and arrived on time, well-dressed, and ready for the occasion.

I received nothing but positive feedback from my guests, and I can still vividly remember hearing the awe and wonder throughout the room during the reception. Brandon was generous with both his talent and his time, and I genuinely look forward to working with him again in the future.”

For the host

You get to enjoy your own party.

I show up on time, dressed for the occasion, and need nothing from you. No stage, no setup, no schedule to juggle.

Your guests get something to talk about, and you get to be a guest too.

Kind words

From people who were there.

A little about me

Hi, I’m Brandon.

I’m a close-up magician based in the Chattanooga area. I enjoy the kind of magic that gets people talking, laughing, and wondering together.

I’m less interested in being the center of attention than in helping create a moment people get to share. Some of my favorite performances are the ones where something unexpected happens between me and the people watching.

When you invite me to your event, you’re inviting someone who genuinely enjoys getting to know the people in the room.

I've performed at occasions ranging from intimate celebrations to Delta Air Lines' Centennial Bash at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta.

A starting point

What does it cost?

Every event is a little different. Here are a few starting points to help you plan. Once I know a little about your event, I can recommend what fits and send a clear quote.

Private gatherings & bachelorette partiesFrom $350
WeddingsFrom $450
Corporate & special eventsRequest a quote

These are starting points, not fixed packages. The final quote depends on location, timing, performance length, and format.

How booking works
  1. Tell me about your event. Use the form, email, or text. No need to have every detail figured out.
  2. Get a clear quote. I usually reply the same day with a recommendation that fits your guests and schedule.
  3. Hold your date. A deposit holds your date, and then it is yours.
Good to know

A few things people ask.

Have a different question? Just send me a note.

What kind of magic do you perform?

Close-up magic and mentalism, often with cards, borrowed objects, and choices made by your guests. People participate, and the magic happens right in front of them.

Is it family-friendly?

My magic is geared toward adults, but everything I do is clean. If kids will be there, I'll make sure I have a few things that work well for them too.

How does it work at an event?

I can move from group to group, sharing close-up magic as people mingle. Or we can gather everyone together for a close-up show, whether that means sitting around a table or finding a comfortable spot in the room. We can decide together what fits your event.

Do you need a stage or any special setup?

No. For strolling magic, I work right in the middle of the room, moving from group to group. For a close-up show, we can gather around a table, kitchen island, or wherever makes sense for your space. I don’t need a stage or special equipment.

All I need is guests.

Do you perform for large groups?

Yes. I can mingle with guests at larger events as well as perform at smaller celebrations. We'll choose a format that fits your guest count and schedule.

Where do you travel?

I'm based in the Chattanooga area and travel throughout Tennessee and North Georgia, including Cleveland, Dalton, Knoxville, Nashville, and the Smokies. Further out? Tell me where, and I'll let you know what's possible.

Prefer email?

You're welcome to reach out directly. I usually reply the same day.

Prefer to call or text?

Calls and texts welcome. Texting is the fastest way to reach me during the day.
