Hire a wedding party host
Enjoy extra peace of mind. Professional wedding emcee
Paul Roberts is here to make your special day run smoothly.
Your friendly, experienced wedding host
Your wedding is the most important moment of your lives. It's normal to be nervous about how things will go on the day.
But with me by your side, you have nothing to worry about.
As a professional wedding emcee, it's my job to make things simple for you. I'll be there to welcome guests, make announcements and keep everything ticking along – right on schedule.
To get started, simply drop me a message. I look forward to meeting you.
More magic for your magic moment.
They call me an organisational wizard — but pulling events together is just my opening act. I’ll also work the room, break the ice, and conjure up unforgettable moments with my signature brand of comedy close-up magic.
For your guests, it means more laughter and lasting memories. For you, it means sitting back, relaxing, and truly enjoying the magic of the moment. Now that’s what I call priceless.
Not just a funny wedding emcee

Thank you so much for today. You really did bring the magic! You helped to make so many memories and, for that, we are truly grateful.
The new Mr and Mrs Ansonia
Just wanted to say 'thank you' for all your hard work at our wedding at Park Hall last week. You really made our day extra-special.
I hope our son Jack wasn't too annoying… I know he followed you around for most of the day. He was captivated by your magic.
He now wants to be a magician!
Lisa and Lee
Would just like to say a massive 'thank you' for being the emcee magician at our wedding. You were fantastic.
Everyone was saying how amazing you were and how you blew their minds. Thank you so much.

About me
A professional wedding emcee and magician with 30+ years of experience.
Hi! I'm Paul.
You'll get to know me as your trusty, never-miss-a-beat wedding party host. But I made my name as a magician – and it all started more than 30 years ago.
Since then, I've made it my mission to spread joy with my unique brand of comedy close-up magic.
My career has taken me around the world. I've won awards – and I've performed for the likes of Ant and Dec, the cast of Coronation Street and the Manchester United football squad.
But despite my adventures, I treat every show and every wedding like it's my first. I want you to feel comfortable, be amazed and go home with beautiful memories. If I can achieve that, I consider it a job well done.
Let's make it happen. Simply drop me a message with the basic details of your wedding plans and we'll go from there.
Frequently asked questions
What are your fees?
When you choose me as the master of ceremonies for your wedding, you get a completely tailored service. That's true even if you pick one of my great-value hosting packages.
That's why I don't publish prices. Every wedding is different, so I'll provide a personalised quote when you get in touch.
I'll say one thing, though – I'm probably more affordable than you think!
How does the process work?
Start by sending a message. At this stage, I just need to know the date of your wedding (if you know it), the venue (or the rough location) and the package you've chosen. We'll discuss the particulars from there.
Remember that all my wedding host packages come with unlimited planning calls included. I can even meet with your wedding planner if needs be.
Can you travel to my location?
Yes, absolutely. I can travel to any location in the UK or abroad. All I ask is that you give me enough notice to make travel arrangements.
Are you insured?
Yes. I hold public liability insurance for your peace of mind.
Can I book you as an Indian wedding emcee?
Yes! I have lots of experience hosting Indian, Pakistani and other Asian weddings. Just let me know if you have any special requests when you get in touch.
Do you host gay/LGBT+ weddings?
Of course. Don't hesitate to get in touch to discuss your particular requirements.
