Why most of the weddings you go to suck

It's always a happy feeling when I see an email of a couple getting married and they start to consider entertainment.But first,  who are we?  We are professional entertainers that have done over 1000 events and a lot of them are... weddings.  We got into the industry for a very simple reason, To make people happy with laughter, amazement, joy, and astonishment.  What we found was, wedding after wedding that we were hired to do a small part of we found the same problems revolving around entertainment.  Guests were on their phones, speeches were too long and contrived, and most of the guests smiled politely and left feeling relieved that they survived another boring wedding.  So here are some main points I'd like to share with you to help.

Daisy and Lily Photography

​In April of 2022, I had spent the day driving east to Hope BC where I had performed one of my funnest (is that even a word?) weddings of the year. I rare never get a chance to see myself perform or work since I mostly work alone, but here because of the incredible photographers, Kiera and Amanda at Daisy and Lily photography, they were able to capture and document this day beautifully.

2019 THANK YOU!!!

Yesterday, I have a friend who has been constantly listening to podcasts, reading e-books, and consuming loads of knowledge yet he hasn't been able to improve.

We fall into a syndrome called FOMO and this applies to all aspects in life. It's also called the shiny object syndrome where we are told to keep adding tools in your tool belt.

It is difficult to talk to this friend as he keeps re-assuring me that he has learned and he's better than yesterday and he's more mindful and more present and the story goes on. I'm constantly being sold that he is better than yesterday.

FIRST BLOG POST

My first blog post here on Kel - Modern magic. It's been 19 years since I first picked up a deck of cards and learning magic. One of the most beautiful things that this art allows us to do is to express our emotions, artistic creativity, our passion into a vehicle that transcends all language barriers. Are we really doing real magic? well... no. Of course we are learning the art of deception, sleight of hand, and trickery.
