We had Shane perfom at our wedding on New Years Eve 2018. We had never seen Shane perform before and had booked him purely on reviews that we had read and seen some of the reaction photos. We wanted some pre-dinner entertainment and was seeking something a bit different to the norm. We were a little apprehensive in the lead up to the day as we weren't sure how the show would go and if it would be a hit. We needed have worried it was AMAZING! It was the best decision to book Shane!! On the day of the wedding, the next day and since our friends and family have not stopped talking about his performance. They were blown away by his skills and it was a great ice breaker at the wedding and a great way to bring our guests together. Shane was very professional, and appeared really enthusiastic to give a great performance. He definitely stayed over the allocated time that we had agreed and got around to all tables. We booked his assistant photographer also and have since got the reaction photos posted to us, over 200 photos which are so hilarious and capture the brilliant reactions of our guests. If you are considering booking Shane for your wedding i would strongly advise that you do, you can't go wrong and everyone will love it from little children to older guests and it's a great way to bring groups together from across both your families.

Julie & John, it was a pleasure to spend NYE with you all, and a great wedding to end 2018 on! Thank you so much for taking the time to share your thoughts here, and for having me as the entertainment for your big day. There certainly were some hilarious 'reaction shots' taken of your guests. I'll let Karine know you enjoyed the photos, she'll be thrilled. Wishing you the very best in your married life, and I really hope to see you both again in the future.

Shane was the star of the show at our reception. People still talking about his performance and offering their views on how he did it! Highly recommended.

Shane performed at our wedding and was truly amazing. We couldn't have asked for better entertainment for our guests. Amazing, mesmerising and truly talented were just some of the words our guests used to describe him. We would definitely recommend Shane to anybody, he truly is at the top of his game.

We booked Shane for our wedding on the 17/11/2018. Simply put, it was without doubt the best decision we made. Finding words to explain how incredible his performance was is proving to be difficult. They say a picture paints a thousand words; well I can still vividly picture the look of amazement on our guest’s faces and also hear the shouts and gasps of disbelief as he moved through the room performing a huge variety of magic and mind reading . We opted for the 4hr performance; this allowed Shane time with our guests at the drinks reception prior to the meal, and then further time during and after the meal. We had 210 guests in total, and amazingly everyone got to witness his talent. During the meal you can also request particular tables for time to be focused on such as those of close family/friends. Shane is an absolute gentleman, friendly, funny and very professional. An example which confirms all was when one of our guests embarrassingly mistook him for a hotel manager and asked him for some gravy! His reply was ‘leave it with me’, and then discreetly passed the message onto the hotel staff. Such was the quality of his magic I was nearly expecting him to conjure up a boat of gravy from somewhere! Throughout the evening each and every guest we were speaking to commented on how much they enjoyed the magic and how they had never seen anything like it. Even at the end of the night and the days after, our guests were still raving about it. I would like to make a point of emphasizing how high level Shane’s magic and mentalist work are. His work is multiples classes above other magicians I have seen at functions. The things he can do simply blow your mind, leave you awestruck, questioning reality and wondering how is that even possible? I highly doubt there is anyone else out there that even comes close to his level. My final advice would be, put less emphasis on selfie mirrors, sweet carts, doughnut walls etc. Invest your money in booking a performance from Shane, I assure you it will be the best decision you make. It will make your wedding day stand apart from all others and also make it a day you and your guests will never forget. Thank you again Shane. Darren + Aine
Response from Shane Black Magician
Wow, thank you so much for the wonderfully detailed review Darren & Aine. I'm so pleased you felt booking me was the best decision you made - that means the world to me. It was my pleasure to a part of your wedding, and I'm delighted I that I was able to help you to create a memorable day. I am constantly working on innovative ways to improve my act, and it's feedback like this that lets me know I'm on the right track and makes it all the more rewarding - so thank you. Wishing you both all the best for the future, and I hope to see you again soon. P.S. I better start working on my gravy conjuring skills as I'm getting confused with hotel staff a lot recently!

They say that the food and the band are the most important and talked about part of a wedding, that is until you encounter Shane!! 1 month on from the wedding and our guests are still blown away by him!! He was so professional to deal with and made sure that he spoke to all 148 guests at the wedding!! He was 100% worth every penny and I'm so glad we had him as part of our day!! Thank you for everything Shane!

Shane - we just want to say a HUGE Thank You for making our wedding BBQ so special and unique. You made day number 2 of our wedding just as magical as day number 1. Our lasting memories are the smiles (and shock!) on our guests faces as you mesmerised them with your talent. Even the biggest sceptics among our guests (and there were quite a few !!) were amazed and bowled over. We can't wait to see you in action again ! Ciara & Noel

People spent the day constantly asking us about him and we could hear groups of our guests clapping and being genuinely mind blown by him. Shane you are amazing and your talents are outstanding if i could give you 100 stars I would!! Im getting hounded with texts and calls about how fantastic you were. I hope to see you in the future again. So thank you sooooo much for adding to the best day of our lives, you have a serious talent and are so easy to work with! All the best! The Hartes

I’d been a wedding coordinator for 7 years and had seen Shane several times and always thought he was so amazing. Then our bridesmaids organized him as a surprise at our wedding and oh my god what a present!! He had guests both freaked out and in awe in equal measures. Everyone young and old enjoyed it. I would absolutely recommend him!! He is amazing and a very down to earth lad too which makes it all even better.
Response from Shane Black Magician
Thanks Eimear for the fantastic review. I'm so glad to have been a part of your big day and delighted that your guests enjoyed my act. Wishing you and Stephen the best for the future. Shane

Shane was amazing from start to finish. He had all our guests mesmerised. They were still talking about him the next day. Absolutely excellent addition to the entertainment of the wedding. He stayed for the drinks reception and then went around the tables during the main reception so that every table had been seen. In total he spent close to 5 hours with us. I cannot sing his praises enough. He had so many mind tricks that nearly every table had a different mind blowing experience. I can’t recommend him enough.
Response from Shane Black Magician

We got a recommendation to have Shane entertain at our wedding and he did not disappoint. Our guests were mesmerized by his talents it was great entertainment for the guests at the hotel reception and during dinner would definitely recommend Shane to anyone he is very personable and great to deal with. The guests were raving about him that night and the next day some of the things he said and did were totally mind blowing.
Response from Shane Black Magician
Hi Laura, thank you so much for the 5-star review. I'm glad to hear you all enjoyed my act, it was a pleasure to be a part of your big day. Best wishes to you and Mick for the future.

Shane entertained our wedding guests on the 3rd of August. Three weeks later the guests are still on a high talking about him and how he amazed them. I heard Shane was good but you really have to see him in action to believe how good he is. Even the guests that doubted him wer left gobsmacked. He’s definitely not your average magician. Shane is a lovely person and brilliant to deal with. So relaxed and easy going but great fun too. I would definitely recommend booking his photographer karine. She captured some brilliant shots, mostly hilarious ones of shocked faces. I really hope to see Shane at an event or wedding again soon, he really made our day that bit extra special!
Response from Shane Black Magician
Roisin, thank you so much for your amazing review. The pleasure was all mine, your friends and family are a performer's dream audience! I really appreciate your feedback and I'm delighted I could help make your day special. Hope to see you and Alan again. Best wishes, Shane

We hired Shane to entertain at our wedding reception last month and he was fantastic, we had 250 guest so it was a lot of people to get round to. Shane was able to gather larger groups at a time and absolutely wow the crowd. Our guest are still talking about how amazing he is and still can’t work out how he is so good. He got the crowd excited and set a really good atmosphere for the rest of the evening. Would highly recommend Shane Black for any occasion or event. Absolutely fantastic so thank you very much Shane. Thomas & Sinead Dunne
Response from Shane Black Magician

Wishing you both the best for the future and hopefully, I'll see you both at another event soon. Shane

Unfortunately Shane had a death in the family a couple of days before my wedding and was unable to attend it himself. I found him so professional and helpful throughout an awful personal time for himself. He had already organized a backup magician before contacting me and made the change so easy. I would highly recommend him due to this professionalism.

Shane was amazing. Our guests were raving about him for months afterwards.

Thank you Siobhan for your 5-star review. I'm so glad to hear your guests are still raving about me! I hope to see you and Denis again in the future, Shane

I was between minds about booking Shane as he wasn't in our budget, but I am so glad I did, Shane was an absolute talking point on the day, and the days after. He got around to everyone and he blended in so well with each group. Shane was beyond professional throughout, from my first email inquiry right up until when he left us on the night. I would recommend anyone who is considering it to go for it, forget the photo booth, light up lights and extras that all add up and go with Shane, you won't regret it!
Response from Shane Black Magician
Hi Emily, thank you for the fantastic review. I had a blast with you all, and I'm so pleased to hear everyone enjoyed my performance. Wishing you and PJ a lifetime of happiness together and I hope to see you both again somewhere down the line. Best wishes, Shane.

Hi Shane I just wanted to say a massive thank you for entertaining our wedding guests on our wedding day. You were fantastic from start to finish. We came home from honeymoon a couple of days ago and in the last couple of days with all the analysis of the wedding your name tops everyone’s list and a month on you still have people wondering!! You are such a great guy, non- intrusive with a perfect blend of professionalism and fun. We wanted someone who would entertain our guests but not put a halt to proceedings or delay the meal etc and you were the perfect choice. We had 370 guests at the wedding and you managed to get around on all of the different groups and I heard there were people following you around to see what you would come up with next! When we were looking for someone to entertain last year it was the reviews on here that made up my mind and if anyone is unsure I could 100% recommend Shane- he was the highlight and talking point of the day. I already know a couple of guests who have booked you for other events since the wedding which is testament to how brilliant you were! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for making our day so special- we will be recommending you to everyone! Andrea and Keith
Response from Shane Black Magician
Hi Andrea. Wow, thank you for your kind words and great feedback. I really appreciate your comments and I’m delighted I could help make your wedding special. Hope to see you and Keith again soon. Shane

Shane absolutely wowed both us and all of our guests. People are still talking about it and wondering how he did all the amazing tricks right in front of their eyes. Shane was an absolute pleasure to deal with and I would most certainly recommend anyone to book him looking for that extra bit of magic for their special day.
Response from Shane Black Magician
Ken, thank you so much for taking the time to leave a second review for me here. I really appreciate it. I'm so pleased to hear your guests are still talking about my act. All the best for the future, Shane.

Shane was amazing. My first time seeing him I hadn't heard of before but I am so glad that I had the privilege of only seeing him but he also done a trick with me which was unbelievable. Everyone was talking about how amazing he was. We were in awe of him and a lovely guy as well. He just went through the wedding guests so discreetly and was in no way intrusive. Would highly recomend him. He was just brilliant!
Response from Shane Black Magician
Hi Una, it's very flattering to receive feedback like this. It was lovely meeting you at Andrea and Keith's wedding last Saturday, and thank you for your kind words.

I first saw Shane at an event in the 3Arena in Dublin about three or four years ago. When he first approached our table we were very wary as we didn't know what to expect but he absolutely amazed us all so much so that I kept his card and it was the best decision I ever made. Shane was the first Supplier we booked for our wedding. In fact as soon as we booked our date I checked to see if he was available and to my delight he was! When we arrived at our hotel reception after pictures he was all that our guests were talking about! They are still talking about him to this day!! Shane was extremely professional from the minute we booked him and always kept in contact in the run up to the wedding. He completely amazed our guests and moved from table to table in an unobtrusive manner. It really made our day to look down at our guests from the top table and see them all laughing and enjoying themselves! I would have no hesitation in recommending Shane to any couple considering booking him for their wedding. You won't be disappointed!!
Response from Shane Black Magician
Hi Dairine, thank you so much for your detailed review and recommendation. I'm delighted my performance made a lasting impression on your guests. Wishing you and Chris all the best, Shane.

I knew when it came to my only Brother's wedding that booking Shane would be the perfect gift. Shane was, as always, truly amazing. He is the quintessential professional, greeting guests with equal amounts of finesse and charm, fascinating each and every one he met with his incredible talent. He moved seamlessly from the drinks reception, through to dinner, with whispers of "he's amazing!" "have you seen him?" "you have to see him!" before arriving at the top table to astonish the bridal party. Even the most sceptical of quests were intrigued and amazed and everyone had a story or a memento. I cannot recommend Shane enough, there is no doubting Shane's brilliance, he is the perfect addition to anyone's perfect day.
Response from Shane Black Magician
Hi Aisling, thank you for your incredibly positive feedback on my performance. It's reviews like this that put a smile on my face and make all the blood, sweat and tears worth it. It was my pleasure to be a part of your brother's wedding and I hope to see you again soon. Take care, Shane

We saw Shane at a birthday party and a wedding so we knew we had to have him at our wedding. We sent a mail checking availabitly and we got sorted all in one day it was so straight forward and he was great to deal with. I have to say we are delighted we had him as part of our day, people are still talking about how amazing he was!! I highly recommend him to everybody.
Response from Shane Black Magician
Hi Aisling, it's great to hear your guests are still taking about my performance. I really appreciate you taking the time to leave me a 5-star review. Thank you so much - Shane
Review by
Shane recently performed at our wedding reception and literally blew our guests away with his amazing talent. We had been looking for something exciting and unique to entertain our quests during that "downtime" between the ceremony and the meal. Shane certainly ticked that box, everyone that witnessed his performance still cant stop talking about it! We really can't express how exciting and jaw-dropping it is to see such talent up close and in the flesh. It was spine tingling to witness such a performance that you only expect to see on TV! We had a slight concern that this kind of entertainment might lead to a "carnival" atmosphere as guests might get over excited. However this was not the case. Considering the extent of his incredible talent, Shane is a very humble and down to earth guy. He moved through the reception seamlessly, blending in with the quests in a non-intrusive manner, always polite and charming. We were lucky that the entire day went off really well, with an amazing band but its pretty clear from chatting to our guests that Shane's performance was the highlight of the day for many. We really can't recommend the guy enough!
Response from Shane Black Magician
Wow Danny! Thanks for your incredibly kind words. I really appreciate you taking the time to write such a detailed and glowing review. It's feedback like this that makes it all worthwhile for me. I'm thrilled that my performance had such a positive impact on so many of your guests. Thank you again for having me, and I wish you and Louise all the best for the future. Shane

Shane performed at our wedding in The Millhouse, Slane, County Meath. Shane clearly loves what he does and this circulated around the room from the personal craft he showed both of us, right through to the 120 guests we had. He was the focal point of our reception and kept our guests entertained and guessing while we were getting our photos done. Shane created a moment in time for us and for everybody involved in the wedding that we will never forget. We would recommend Shane in a heartbeat. Thanks for everything, We hope to cross your path again, Stephen & Denise
Response from Shane Black Magician
Stephen, thank you for your kind words and recommendation. I put a lot of time into developing my act and reviews like yours are what make it all worthwhile. You and your guests were great craic and a joy to perform for. Huge congrats again to you and Denise, Shane

Shane was an amazing part of our day and so easy to deal with. Our guests were astonished by his magic and he was a huge talking point for weeks after the wedding! Both myself and my husband agreed that Shane was an amazing entertainer and 100% worth having as part of our wedding day! We'd recommend him to any couples thinking of something different for entertainment.. the trick is don't let anyone in on the plan and enjoy the fantastic reactions from your guests! It's so worth seeing the looks on their faces.
Response from Shane Black Magician
Louise, thank you so much for this wonderful review. I'm so pleased to hear my act created a such a big talking point for your guests. It was a pleasure to be a part of your big day, and I wish you and Gerry a lifetime of happiness together. Hope to see you at another event very soon. Best wishes, Shane
Review by
When I say I cannot recommend Shane enough, that is an understatement. He entertained 130 people at the wedding pre-dinner reception. It was such a great start to the reception, everybody was talking about it for the rest of the day and on the second day. His talent in doing what he does is amazing. I have seen Shane entertain at different functions about 5 or six times now and he still leaves me in awe. Would highly recommend you book if you want a class act for your guests.

Shane black is truly mind boggling when it comes to his work. We got great feed back from our guests after the wedding with what he had done with them. If you are looking for people to be talking about your big day he is the man for the job no doubt.

Having been to a few weddings myself I really wanted ours to be a bit different and not the cliche boring drinks reception so having seen Shane at events before I knew I had to book him for our wedding. To be brutally honest my husband wasn’t keen at all...he felt the cost was too much...but I can tell you now he has since ate his words and admits he is worth every single cent!!! I would actually pay double for the reaction he got from our guests. He is 100% money well spent without a doubt. Our guests are still talking about Shane and trying to figure out how he does it, we actually got phone calls the next day asking about him, people were just baffled. He blew them away. He genuinely is amazing at what he does. He has a lovely manner about him dealing with guests of all ages young and old. Even the hotel manager said he will be strongly recommending him for future events. So do yourself a favour and book him you will not be disappointed :-)
Response from Shane Black Magician
Niamh, I was delighted to be a part of your wedding. Some of your guests' reactions were hilarious - especially Thomas! He was following me around for half the afternoon :) Thank you for placing your trust in me, and for taking the time to leave this very generous review, it genuinely means a lot to me. Wishing you and Liam every happiness for the future, Shane

So yet another (boring) wedding was on the horizon but this time is was my own. I didn't want my wedding to be yet 'another' wedding and dreading seeing my guests yawning. So off I went on a mission, trawling through weddings online trying to find not only the best entertainment but something that was a little different, a little exciting and a major wow factor. I came across Shane Black, his reviews had me a little excited and he has won best entertainer but the cost was working out the same as my wedding dress!! I took a leap of faith and booked him. Shane was probably the one that I was concerned about the most on the day as I hadn't had the pleasure of seeing him in action before. Concerns soon drifted away he ended up being not only the best entertainer of the day but the most shocking and still 3 weeks on my guests are still talking about him. I'm just raging I wasn't part of the guests who got to enjoy his company a bit more !! Our money well spent and please if booking I'd recommend Shane's own photographer also, she picked up reactions that I now able to keep for a lifetime.
Response from Shane Black Magician
Wow, thank you for this AMAZING review, Colette! You've made my day. I had a brilliant time with you all and it means a lot that my performance had such a positive impact. I will pass on your thanks to Karine also, she'll be very pleased to hear you like the photos. Wishing you and Jon the best and hopefully, I'll see you both again soon at another event. Shane

We booked Shane for our drinks reception and it was the best money we have ever spent! Not only is he amazing at what he does but a real ice breaker for people that don't know each other as well. Can't recommend Shane enough this was the second time I have seen him and nothing was the same. I'm now looking for an excuse to book him again :) if you want everyone to be still talking about your wedding weeks later definitely have Shane as entertainment for your guests.
Response from Shane Black Magician
Emma, thank you so much for your kind words and this amazing review. It was a pleasure to be a part of yours and Robbie's special day, and I'm so pleased to hear your guests are still talking about your wedding.

Shane was absolutely fantastic. We couldn't recommend him enough. Our guests are still talking about Shane & how Brilliant he was. Personally I think you'd be mad not to get him. We had Shane just as guests were finished dinner, so they could relax after they're meal. Best decision ever.. Brides/grooms I HIGHLY highly recommend Shane. Ye will not regret it.

Shane was the best decision of our whole wedding. Even from when we had a preview at our house we were blown away. He was at the wedding early and even stayed a bit late to accommodate us. He has some of the most amazing tricks and I truly believe he is magic! My guests are still talking about him to this day. There was a massive crowd around him all day. Every one was so impressed! it was like he was famous as many said "omg cant believe Shane Black is here!" Definitely worth every penny, Cannot say enough good things about this entertainment. Its something different and if you want that added extra to be different Shane Black is the way to go. Absolutely unbelievable. I cannot wait to get my video to look back at peoples reactions again. Do not hesitate in booking this guy! 10/10. Thank you Shane for a whopper of a day!
Response from Shane Black Magician
Hey Fiona! I'm very grateful for you taking the time to leave to leave yet another fantastic review for me. Although, I'm not sure what you meant by "it was LIKE he was famous" !! Don't you read the newspapers? Don't you know who I am? LOL, I joke =) I'm glad your guests enjoyed my show and I made a true believer out of you. I'll leave you with a quote from one of the greatest Mind Readers that the world has ever known, Joseph Dunninger: "For those who believe, no explanation is necessary. For those who do not, none will suffice." All the best, Shane

The first time I seen Shane was at a work night. Myself and all my colleagues thought he was amazing. I couldn't believe what I was seeing. Shane also interacts so well with people. I knew then that I wanted to surprise my Sister and I booked Shane for her wedding. Yet again Shane did a superb job. He made sure he got around to every guest at the wedding and gave the Bride and Groom some extra special treats to enjoy. I could see nothing but enjoyment on everyones faces. Also I could see people going up to Shane and would say please come to our table next. Everyone was speaking very greatly of Shane and still are. He went above and beyond our expectations. My Sister and Hubby were delighted. I would highly reccommed Shane to anyone.

What a wonderful review, Colette. Thank you SO much for taking the time to write it. I'm happy to hear everyone had a great time - I did too. I hope to see you at a future event. Take care, Shane

Shane was amazing, people of all ages loved him and were talking about him all night. He was not at all cheesy either (which my husband was worried about when he heard 'magician'). Shane didn't do any big performances, he just moved discreetly from small group to small group and got as many guests as possible involved. His tricks were really incredible as well - Derren Brown style! We felt he added so much to the day and was such a talking point.

This was one of the best choices we made for our wedding! Shane Black is just amazing! He dealt easily with our guests of many different cultural backgrounds and went down a treat with all. If you are looking for someone to entertain, wow or simply freak out (in a good way) your guests, then we'd highly recommend Shane be part of your day. Our guests loved him and he even made time for us and ensured we enjoyed the experience too. We really hope to get invited to a wedding/event soon, where Shane is entertaining :-)

We booked Shane for our wedding based on previous reviews and having seen him perform at a previous Vegas themed party. We have to say that we couldn't recommend Shane enough! Everyone at the wedding was amazed and are still talking about him. His tricks are unbelievable and go way beyond your average card trick. We also had kids attending our wedding and he went out of his way to entertain them too. Shane also stayed on way beyond the previously agreed time, even after we insisted he was free to go! ???? Thanks a million for entertaining us all on the day!!

Having seen Shane perform at a wedding a few years ago we had no doubt we wanted to book him for our own wedding day and he did not disappoint. All of the guests loved him and were amazed by him!

I would highly recommend him and hopefully we will get to see him perform at another event in the future.

We had Shane Black perform for 3 hours at our drinks reception the day of our wedding and it really enhanced the atmosphere and helped mingle our guests together. I have booked Shane on numerous occasions and would highly recommend him for any event - he really is amazing and so impressive. Everyone was blown away with his performance the day of our wedding and it remained a talking point with many of our guests for hours after he had left. You will be amazed! I would also highly recommend hiring his photographer who managed to capture our guests at their most natural and are some of my favourite photographs from the day of the wedding.

OMG...WOW!!... Both myself & Sean could not recommend Shane Black enough, as we were amazed by his preformance & professionalism. He entertained 100 guests to the highest level and has been the topic of conversation since our wedding. Our guests were left totally amazed & dumbfounded by his tricks, as we both were too. The only regret we have is not having him entertain us for longer, or posing for a photo together. ???? We will definitely be keeping an eye out and our diaries free, to catch one of Shane's performances in the future. Thanks again Shane. A true gent and a brilliant preformer.. Ps thanks to my lovely husband Sean for surprising me with Shane's attendance at our wedding.. ?

Amy & Sean, thank you so much for the fantastic review. It was a pleasure to perform for your friends and family. I'm happy to hear everyone enjoyed the show!

I booked Shane Black for my sisters wedding. Shane was brilliant, I can not recommend him enough, one of the highlights of the wedding. He mingled with all the guest and entertained everyone throughout the reception. All the guest were talking about Shane after the wedding saying how amazing he was. Shane was very professional in all my dealings with him. The bride and groom felt he was a great addition to their day.

Shane was absolutely amazing on our wedding day, everyone was talking about him. He got around to everyone old and Young and had everyone engaged in his act. He had a great sense of humour and made everyone feel relaxed . He did both tricks and mind reading and IT was unbelievable what he was able to do. When we were called in for our meal nobody wanted to go as everyone wanted more time with Shane . He even did a group piece for my whole bridal party that had us all laughing , amazed and intrigued . I'm so happy we booked Shane as he gave our day another special memory , I would recommend him to anyone , you won't be disappointed ????????

We had Shane for our wedding in Kells on 12th August this year. He was very professional and friendly at all times. We would highly recommend him to anyone looking to provide your guests with awe inspiring moments and to keep your guests entertained and talking about it for the night and wondering how he did his amazing magic! Even our guests giving a fake name did not throw him off the scent!! He turned a deck of cards into a plaque with our names on it right in front of our eyes without touching our hands, just amazing. Price wise it seems expensive at first but take a look at his videos on you tube... And trust me it's the best money you'll ever spend on your wedding entertainment ????

What we really liked was that he endured the wedding party got a taste of his fantastic show before we went for our meal and he left us in total bewilderment at how he does things.

We had previously met Shane at another wedding & a corporate event a few years ago! From those moments i knew we would have to have him perform at our wedding!! We asked Shane to perform at our drinks reception - he mingled with the crowd indoors & outdoors & made sure not to miss a table. It was the best thing we done, our guests were amazed! A week later & the conversation is still about the magic! Everybody loved it! E're still asking ourselves HOW! To anyone thinking about booking Shane, you will not be disappointed! It was well worth it! Thanks again Shane

When we were planning our wedding, we were looking for something different to entertain our guests at the drinks reception. From the minute Shane came into the venue, he mingled through the crowd almost unnoticed in his sharp suit. However it wasn't long before word spread through the crowd about his amazing card tricks and illusions. He was polite and he worked his way through the crowd providing a couple minutes entertainment at each and leaving everyone amazed. Shane didn't leave us out either, coming up to our top table to show us a number of things before he signed off for the night. Since the wedding day people have been raving about what they saw. Though it might seem a bit expensive you will not be disappointed!

Shane was highly professional from the very start. I have been to weddings in the past where that pre reception gap was left with nothing but guests looking at their watches, I booked Shane to fill this gap and guests couldn't of been happier with lots of compliments and positive feedback leaving guests with their jaws dropped. What impressed me most was the letter he had written that morning about two guests at the wedding, how it all came together amazed me! Then myself, Stephen and his niece thinking we were holding a deck of cards and when we lifted our hands it was something else. Just amazing, I would highly recommend Shane for any event and he fit in perfectly at our wedding.

Although it's taken us a ridiculous amount of time to get round to reviewing Shane's performance at our wedding last year (and never normally write reviews at all!) we cannot recommend him highly enough. We took a bit of a punt on hiring him - we had not seen him perform, but had heard rave reviews from others - and we are so glad we did! Shane was engaging and charming and put everyone at ease. He appealed to absolutely everyone and really tailored the performance to the audience. The performances themselves were absolutely incredibly and we still cannot fathom how any of the tricks were done. The guests were so impressed and have been talking about Shane ever since. The only downside to people being so enthralled and wanting to see more was that he didn't manage to get round all the tables during the meal, so not everyone saw him, but he certainly did his best! Some guests from England were so impressed they wanted him to come to their son's wedding and would have booked him on the spot, but unsurprisingly he was already booked! Shane also stayed slightly later than agreed so that he could include more guests, and although we would happily have paid extra to have him stay all night unfortunately he had another booking! We can also say that Shane is a really honest guy - we had inadvertently sent him the deposit twice and he let us know and refunded us the extra money immediately when we wouldn't even have noticed we'd done it (wedding brains!). Overall we are SO glad we booked Shane for our wedding - it made an amazing day even more special and we would definitely urge you to book him for yours!! His magic really is mind-blowing.
Response from Shane Black Magician
Hi Sophie, Thank you for taking the time to write such a detailed and wonderful review for me. I’m so pleased to hear my performance was well received and your guests are still talking about it. If I didn’t have another show that directly afterwards I would have happily stay on and get around to everyone for you. With groups constantly ebbing and flowing at the drinks reception, it can be challenging to keep track of who I’ve seen as people change groups, join other groups and so on. Hopefully I’ll have the opportunity to perform for you at another family event in the future. Again, thank you for your kind feedback, I really appreciate it. Wishing you and Martin the best for the future. Kind regards, Shane

We booked Shane for our wedding as he came highly recommended. We weren't sure if we wanted to spend a lot of money on this type of entertainment, but it ended up being the best decision we made! Shane was an absolute hit among all of our guests, and 2 months after the wedding our family and friends are still talking about the amazing tricks he performed. You won't believe how good he is until you see him in action!! Thanks for everything Shane!

Shane performed at my brother's wedding three years ago, and, having experienced his capabilities first hand, I had little trouble in convincing my fiancé that we simply had to secure his services for our recent wedding - and we were not disappointed! From my initial contact with him right through to his departure from our wedding, Shane's professionalism was second to none. And the experience he provided our guests with still has them mystified and talking about it - his skills are mind boggling and you will be left scratching your head indefinitely trying to figure out how he's done it. We always knew where Shane was in the room as every minute or two shrieks of excitement and surprise would erupt at one of the tables! Whatever the event, Shane can add something very special. I hope to book him again one day in the future and have no hesitation in recommending him.

We booked Shane after seeing him at a few family weddings. He is absolutely amazing and our guests are still taking about him!

We are absolutely delighted that Shane was available to perform at our wedding. He added an incredible atmosphere to the whole event and was extremely entertaining. We had a lot of different groups of people at the afters who didn't know each other so watching Shane perform provided them with a great way of mingling with each other. It really brought the whole crowd together and absolutely everyone loved his show....even Gráinne! To top it off Shane is also a really decent and nice fella. He was a pleasure to deal with in the run up to the wedding and on the evening itself. I would have no hesitation in recommending him. Thanks again Shane. Debbie

Shane entertained our guests and made sure to get round to as many of them as possible. Everyone who experienced Shane's act at our wedding was blown away. Sceptics and those who tried to outwit him were stunned by what he could do. What made the day even more special was that when our friends and families were being seated for dinner we had a private show from Shane for 15 minutes that included a particular trick just for us. I would not hesitate to recommend Shane comfortable in the knowledge that everyone who experiences his show will enjoy it.

We would just like to say a huge thank you to Shane he was absolutely amazing at our wedding. All our guest talked about him all night. We even have a bride for 2017 asking all about him. Well worst every penny, entertained all our guest while we were busy, and it is a great opportunity for both families to mingle together and get them talking to each other. I just wish I had got him to do it during dinner too as he is that good. I would recommend him for any wedding. Glad I chose you Shane to entertain.

Shane; your 'appearance' on Saturday at my brother's Wedding was all we expected and much much more. The guests (and my family!) were all truly amazed. The positive feedback was both phenomenal and fantastic so Thanks for that!

Furthermore, he gave the bridal party a special performance while the guests were being seated! He was so entertaining and a true gentleman! I'm still talking to family/friends about his tricks! Highly recommend! Bonus points: Shane made some of his magic tricks personal to the wedding couple which really made their day and provided lasting memories!

We had Shane preform at our drinks receptions and through out the meal at our wedding and everyone was amazed by his magic, we had alot of sceptics in our party but by the end Shane had converted them. Everyone kept telling me how amazing he was and what a great idea it was to have him there. He included as many people as possible in his preformance and brought everyone together, it was a real ice breaker, I could not recommend Shane highly enough and if you have an event get booking because I can guarentee you will not be disappointed

Shane performed in fantastic fashion for us at our drinks reception in early October & our guests are still talking about him & I have no doubt they will be this time next year!! I had seen Shane perform at a work event & could not believe my eyes, right then I knew he would be a massive hit at our wedding. Everything was so easy and straight forward with Shane, his site is great plus he responds quickly to any questions. As I had seen Shane before I though I would know all his tricks and mind games, but know my friends are still telling me about different tricks which I hadn't seen, Shane has a spectral range to suit all personalities & age groups in his repertoire!! Im really looking forward to seeing Shane perform again at another event & we are so glad we had him at our wedding - such a friendly & personable guy who really acts as another host, entertaining & amazing everyone as he goes. A huge thanks to you Shane & best of luck for the future :-) Liz & John

We had Shane booked for the couple of hours post ceremony and pre meal. From the minute he arrived, he was entertaining guests, and bringing people together and including as many people as he could. He was charming and funny, but most of all his magic was amazing. Everybody loved his tricks and illusions. We would highly recommend him.

We booked Shane Black for our wedding in July and we can't recommend him more highly to any other couple planning their big day. Shane performed during the cocktail hour before we all sat down to dinner. We got amazing feedback from guests - they were all blown away by the illusions and tricks he performed. It was great fun and people said the cocktail hour just seemed to fly by. Throughout the day guests were coming up to us saying how much they enjoyed the magician! It was a great talking point. We would highly recommend Shane. He is a lovely guy to deal with aswell.

Shane performed during the drinks reception at our wedding on June 26th. I am still hearing from guests about how amazing Shane was - people are still struggling to figure out how he does what he does - it seems magic does actually exist! My hubby and I also get to witness some of what Shane did and to say it was mind blowing was an understatement. Everyone was so well entertained and he was the talking point of the day. We would like to thank Shane for being such a big part of our special day. If I was to do it again, I would have hired you for the full day and not just 3 hours! Money so well spent!

Shane was one of the main highlights of our day. The bridal party went off to get photos done when Shane had started. When we got back, we had a load of our guests coming up to us to say Shane was amazing, a brilliant entertainer. I loved that all our guests mingled together watching him - a real icebreaker for both sides of the family to interact! HIGHLY recommend! Our guests are still talking about Shane! (On a side note, my now husband was very wary of this type of entertainment but as soon as he saw Shane perform, he admitted, for once, that he got it wrong!!)

We thought Shane black was excellent. The entertainment provided something a little different from other weddings. It set the rest of the night up perfectly because young and old loved it. Genuinely nice guy and he stayed until the last person was leaving for dinner. The tricks were amazing and he could easily be on TV . Thanks again Shane
Response from Shane Black Magician
Thank you again Claire and Alan. It was a pleasure to be a part of your big day.

I can not recommend Shane black highly enough, a brilliant performance was delivered and he was the talk of the wedding. A true professional with excellent talents, excellent interpersonal skills, and excellent communication. My only regret is that we didn't book Shane for longer as people wanted more of him. An absolute gentleman who will only enhance a couples big day.

I can not recommend Shane highly enough!! Shane performed at our wedding in Kilkenny on 02May15. I contacted Shane initially to see if he was available for our pre-dinner drinks reception but he was already booked for another event. Instead he performed in between the courses of the meal and after the meal while the band was setting up. This actually worked out really well as it was a great talking point during the meal and it meant that there wasn't a lull in between the meal and the band as Shane was there to entertain!! Our Wedding party and our guests thoroughly enjoyed Shane's performance. Some of our guests even offered to pay Shane extra to stay on for longer!! Not only did he have everyone captivated, he also has a great way about him and is a true professional. A huge highlight of our Wedding day!

We had seen shane about 2 years go at a friends wedding and when we got engaged we had to make sure shane was part of our big day. We arrived to hotel on our big day and already people were commenting on shane doing tricks. He adds alot of atmosphere to the room. We found it helped people mingle that did not know each other it was a conversation starter for people. We had about 15 mins left before going to room for speeches and meal and shane sat down with myself and susan and had a few tricks for us. The one that blew our mind was were he asked susan to think of a holiday where she was on holidays with somebody that is not in the hotel at the wedding. Susan picked her friend showed me(PERSONS NAME WAS CAT)and then shane ripped up the paper gave to susan and asked were was the holiday susan had said santa ponsa and then asked what year susan said 2009. Shane then out a little envolpe stapled 20 times handed to susan. It was opened by myself and read inside "DONT ASK HOW I KNOW ABOUT YOYR HOLIDAY TO SANTA PONSA WHICH TOOK PLACE IN 2009 I JUST HOPE YOU AND CAT HAD A FANTASTIC TIME THERE" we could not believe it was amazing u really cant put a price on quality was really worth the fee AMAZING MIND BLOWING are just 2 words that can describe shane.

If you are thinking about hiring shane for an event i really wouldn't hesitate! We booked shane for our wedding in february and prior to seeing him a few years back at a family wedding he had so much more new mind boggling tricks to show.. Everyone's still talking about him! We were both really impressed with how he made sure we both got our value for money before he left by showing myself and paul some new material!! ???? definitely money well spent!!!

I booked Shane to perform at my wedding (pre-dinner time) having seen him at a work event previously. I wanted something different and to entertain people before the dinner reception. The feedback I got from the guests was that Shane was the best part of the wedding!!) He had everyone’s attention, so much so they didn't want to go for their dinner! He entertained the entire crowd including the children, taking time to perform to individuals as well as the small groups. It was possibly the best part of the day and one no one will ever forget. The next day and the few weeks after the wedding I got so many calls and texts asking me for his details, that speaks for itself. Great entertainer, lovely person and I could not recommend him enough to people for their weddings or other events.

We were both blown away by Shane on the day of our wedding. His professionalism was second to none and everyone we've met since our wedding has mentioned Shane to us. We would recommend him very highly - definitely a must for your wedding day. Our only regret is that we only had him for the drinks reception and not for during the meal, although it has meant that people were left in suspense. A very talented guy and we are so grateful to have had him there on our special day!

I booked Shane for our wedding last October and as it was last minute I didn't hold out much hope. However as it was a Sunday I was in luck and along he came to demonstrate his amazing skills to the wedding guests at the drinks reception. This is an excellent time to have Shane there as everyone is relaxed and it is the perfect ice breaker for families and friends. It is something different from the norm and people are still talking about it. The tricks were amazing ... It definitely added a new dimension to our wedding and made the day in fact! Irelands answer to David Blaine! Thanks again Shane - delighted you were able to perform at our wedding!

I had shane black for our wedding last September and he was just amazing. My friend had him the previous year and I said I had to get him myself. He kept all the guests occupied while photos were been taking, I didnt want them to get bored and he did a great job. He was worth every penny and all the guests couldnt stop talking about him. They were all amazed at his talent and it was something a little different to have at our wedding. I would highly recommend him for any event.

Shane, Thank you so much for your amazing and unique entertainment on our wedding day in The Village at Lyons. It was fantastic to walk into the champagne reception and hear people laughing and shouts of disbelief with your magic.

On behalf of Cliff and I we wish you all the best and we highly recommend you to anyone planning a wedding

We booked Shane based on reviews alone and it's easy to see why he has won awards! We had a small wedding (32) we wanted something different to entertain our guests after our meal, and before the DJ started. Shane was a pleasure to deal with and his performance was amazing!! Everyone young and old thoroughly enjoyed it and it is still often talked about now! We'd have absolutely no hesitation in recommending him for any function.

If you are wondering what entertainment would be best during your drinks reception then forget about music (that is what your band/DJ are for) and choose Shane Black. All our guests were blown away and are still talking about him. As illusionists/magician's go, Shane is the best we have ever seen. On top of this he is extremely professional, very approachable and delivers an astounding array of tricks/illusions. It is also a great ice breaker and talking point for the dinner table conversation. We can't recommend him enough.

We had seen Shane perform at my brother's wedding and were absolutely blown away so we immediately booked him for our wedding the following year! He added such a fun element to our day and was a huge hit with our guests. Having him there during the drinks reception was great entertainment and a real talking point and so many of our guests came up to us on the day telling us how blown away they were by his tricks. Shane is very friendly and personable and I would highly recommend him for your big day or special event.

Shane was a great highlight to our wedding day at the pre meal drinks reception. He blew people's minds with his repertoire. Shane is also a very easy going, easy to get on with guy, who shows up on time and does what he says he will. We also got photos from someone working with Shane and they captured our guests reactions brilliantly. We have since seen other magician type acts at subsequent weddings and they did not compare. Would recommend to anyone.

Thanks a million for performing at our wedding on Friday. When I told everyone I had a magician coming to the wedding, they all assumed you would be pulling rabbits out of hats or something! They were shocked when they saw what you really do. Everybody loved you and some are still a bit afraid of you, but they’re all still talking about you. Best money ever spent to entertain a crowd and get them mingling with each other. I would highly recommend booking this guy to anybody who’s thinking about it. Thanks again!”

Shane, thank you so much from both Karl and I for being part of our special day. All I can say is if you are looking at this page thinking about booking Shane... stop thinking and DO IT NOW!! Everyone was amazed by Shane, it was so much fun looking at everyone's reaction and listening to them talking about it. It gave such a different twist. Dinner was called, Shane was still there doing his thing and people didn't want to leave for dinner. I have booked so many entertainers for company events and Shane is by far the best we could have picked!

Our guests were completely blown away and you were the talk of the weekend. In fact, they are still talking about the mind blowing tricks you performed!

Hi Shane, I would just like to thank you for an amazing afternoons entertainment at our wedding. Everyone was talking about your performance and how well you worked the room and entertained our guests. People are still talking about how good your act is and you turned some very cynical people into wide eyed children with your magic! Some of the stuff you did genuinely caused a few goose bumps and raised the hairs on many a neck of our guests. Thanks again for a brilliant performance and for adding so much to our big day

Everyone was truly amazed by your extraordinary talents you were just fantastic and you are still the talk of the wedding! The amount of people asking how we found you was amazing. You were the talk of each table at the meal and really helped to break the ice with our guests. Thank you once again you were amazing and to anyone out there who's thinking of having you at their wedding, function, party etc. don't THINK about it just BOOK Shane, he is fantastic

Dear Shane, Where do we start? I had seen some of your work through booking you for other functions in my work capacity and when I said to Aidan that I definitely knew what surprise entertainment I wanted for our guests on our wedding day he said I was mad!! But I raved on nonstop about how good you were he said ok we'll book him! I was thrilled. And SO excited as I knew our guests would never have seen anything like it before! So the big day arrived and the big day ended and since, meeting people from very late that night and very early the next morning, every single person mentioned how gob-smacked they were with your performance. Shane you had grown men fearful of you and your tricks..... At one stage during the night I looked around and as you moved from one group to the next you laid in your wake faces of disbelief, excitement, tears of frustration and people with no words to explain what just happened to them. Words actually can't describe how amazing and unbelievable you and your act are!!! You amazed and entertained our guests as I knew you would and to this date you still are the talking point of that night!! You stunned so many people and gave them an amazing time and the most wonderful memories for us. Thank you so do much for adding a twist of the unknown and a sprinkling of magic and intrigue into our evening entertainment - our wedding was very different and special and you were a huge part of it. Your professionalism and dedication to your job makes you an excellent entertainer but also as a person you are a joy to deal with. Thank you so so much for taking the time and travelling to our wedding evening after already working up the country at another wedding!! Shane you astounded so many of our guests with your amazing skills & talent – thank you for everything

Thank you for such an entertaining performance at our wedding on the 17th May in Rathsallagh. It was a huge success, everybody had a great laugh. I thought it was such a good act because it worked for all age groups, didn't offend people and made opportunities for good photos. We got the photos back recently and your act allowed the photographer to capture all the guests unaware, the reactions are great. We are delighted we booked you for our wedding.

Shane, just wanted to say a huge thanks from Dave and I for the amazing performance you gave us and our wedding guests at the Shelbourne.

If there is anyone even thinking about booking you I would definitely say to them “stop thinking and book quickly”! Thanks again for giving us such a memorable highlight on our big day

We both loved all your tricks during the demonstration at the wedding fair but the reaction from the guests on the day was unbelievable, they loved it! Everybody was talking about it after you left and we really appreciated the time you took with getting around to the Bridal party and making sure everybody got to join in the fun. I will definitely recommend you to anyone looking for something different for their entertainment.

Thank you again and we will definitely be going to see one of your public performances

“To anyone considering hiring a magician for their party or event, I cannot recommend Shane Black highly enough. He is absolutely amazing. I contacted Shane when my partner and I were organizing our wedding party, and after I had carried out a lot of research into other acts, I was very intrigued as to what Shane could do. He promised something different and wow, did he deliver! Our guests were blown away with his skills and they are still talking about him now. Shane seems to have been the most memorable part of our party, and that’s saying something when you consider that our party was Las Vegas style with all the trimmings. Shane actually worked the whole theme to his advantage and was at home with the cards and tables around him as he worked his magic. Shane's strengths are in his abilities and how he engages guests. I won't give away any details but Shane performed two signature effects in particular which just made everyone’s hair stand on end. Shane is a terrific magician but also a really nice guy. He puts you at ease from the first moment of contact, he is very easy to deal with and very funny too. Don't bother with any other research into other acts, I've done that. Take my word for it, book Shane. You won't be disappointed. I just want to express my deepest thanks to Shane for his work and for making our party so memorable.”

"Hey Shane, I just wanted to say a huge thank you for performing for our guests the night of our wedding. You were unbelievable and all our guests loved you and couldn't get enough of you. They are blaming you for our first dance being so late as no wanted to leave you in the bar! My dad was just completely taken aback by you I don't think he could believe his eyes, he has been talking about you ever since! People ask how the wedding was; he says Shane Black was amazing! Also I wanted to say thank you so much for staying on way past your scheduled time, you are a pure professional and a pleasure to be around. Also we would like to thank you for waiting on Ryan and I to do our first dance and then taking us aside for our private magic performance. We really did appreciate that, as I would have been sick if I missed you. Thanks again for everything Shane; you are a true gent and pure talent."

Shane, anyone I have seen since the wedding has not stopped commenting on your entertainment that evening. I think you left a few people shell shocked! All along I was looking for something different for the entertainment in the evening rather than the usual and I found that in your performance, you are a great entertainer. Wishing you all the success in the future and I will be recommending you to others. Once again thank you so much for entertaining us on our Big Day.

Surprise surprise that there isn't a negative comment on your page and nor will there be, we got married on Aug 18th and had Shane do the entertainment at our reception whilst we were having our photographs done, this was by far and away one of the best choices we made in organising our wedding, when booking most things for our wedding we looked for recommendations, well if you are considering Shane you are lucky to have come across him and go no further, I only hope that my recommendation is a help to all involved as just a small thank you to Shane for making our special day even better. Thank you again Shane.

We had Shane at our wedding on 6th May 2011 and he was brilliant. We kept it a surprise for all our guests and they were all thrilled with the entertainment he provided, especially my mother who was astounded with him able to guess a school colleagues name totally at random! It was great for people at tables who didn't know each other that well, real ice breaker. He was great with everyone and kept all the tables talking, and they still are. Thanks again Shane

We had Shane along as an entertainer to our wedding on St Patricks Day. Based on the feedback he is one of the most memorable parts of our wedding. Our guests loved him and you cannot ask for more than that. Our only regret was that we did not get to spend more time with him ourselves. It was not in our original budget but definitely our best investment. Amazing and mind bending, we’ll definitely find an excuse to see Shane again.

Thank you so much for doing such an incredible job at our drinks reception on New Year’s Eve. Everyone is raving about you. Even the groom (who was very dubious about getting a magician- he was SO impressed- and you even got a mention in the speech!) You were a true professional and really made the day special for us. So many people have asked me for your number as well so I am sure 2012 is going to be an incredibly successful year for you if you keep on doing what you are doing! Thanks again, and best of luck!

Thank you so much for performing at our wedding on 1st May. It was brilliant and we have heard nothing but glowing reports from all our guests. I believe your new number one fan Niamh managed to get her boss to book you for a function later in the month. Best of luck there. Thanks again for everything.

I’ve been told by a number of people... “the best money you’ve ever spent!”... You changed the whole atmosphere of our wedding reception (in a great way!!). Our guests enjoyed every minute of your performance. You have a wonderful presence and manner and created a wow factor that will stick with both Yvonne and I, and all our guests for many years to come. I will be highly recommending your performance to as many clients and friends for any functions that they may have in the future. I also will definitely be engaging your act in the future for any corporate events that may arise. Shane, thanks for creating the atmosphere that we were looking for on our special day.

We had Shane Black for our wedding in July 2011 and it's easy to see why he won entertainer of year 2011! He was fantastic and really was one of the talking points of our wedding. The guests really enjoyed his tricks and we would highly recommend him to anyone considering something a bit different for the pre-dinner drinks reception.
