Corporate Events
“David was so easy to work with and made our company event awesome for all age groups in attendance. He was able to personalize the show for our group and integrating him with the event was so easy. The final trick was amazing!" “We hired David for our company Holiday party. He was early to set up, and jumped into the action right as the party was starting. His tricks not only blew my mind, but also everyone else's. I received a lot of positive feedback from my coworkers as well. I would highly recommend his services and he will be my first call the next time we are in need of a magician." “David was the highlight of my corporate team building day. He was great to work with, full of ideas and helped shape a combination of magic act, stories, and magic education. It was a big hit with a bunch of engineers. I would highly recommend David for a corporate event.” "We hired David as a surprise guest at our company holiday party. Even prior to the event, he was on top of communication and finding out what we were looking for and tailoring his services to such. On the day of the event, everything went seamlessly from his arrival, working with the DJ, and starting his show. He tailored his show perfectly to our mixed crowd of adults and children of all ages. Our company really enjoyed being a part of his interactive show. Definitely would recommend!!!" “We were looking for walking magicians for a department happy hour (roughly 900 people were invited!) and I found David. He was able to bring three other magicians with him to walk around the crowds and perform their magic. From what I observed, our team members were engaged and had great reactions! I also forgot to mention that working with David was great! He's responsive to emails/calls and answered all my questions in a timely matter.” “David was great! He was very professional and amazing at what he does. He engaged the audience and had people o the edge of their seats. We would highly recommend him if you want a magical evening!” |
“Had such a wonderful time having David as our evening entertainment/activity for a corporate retreat this week. He was so easy to work with in preparation for the event and he goes out of his way to make a unique experience for the team and type of event he's working with." “David was very professional, entertaining and has this easy good-natured personality. I'm very glad we hired him for our corporate party last week. He showed up on time, looked the part and worked the crowd as needed. The guests were very entertained by his close-up magic. My colleague said she felt like we were at an America's Got Talent episode and we were the guest judges! Not only that, invoicing and billing was very professional, up-to-date and easy, which is definitely preferably when booking for corporate. Would highly recommend!" “We had David perform during the cocktail hour of our black tie holiday party. He was always in communication as to what we wanted, amazed our guests and dressed for the party. He is highly recommended.” “David was absolutely wonderful at our holiday party this year! We started off the evening with some intimate strolling magic, during which David was captivating and entertaining. Later in the evening, he performed a 25 minute magic show for our team of about 25 and their spouses... David did a wonderful job of keeping the audience of all ages entertained and intrigued. I would happily recommend him for any event and look forward to hosting him again in the future!” “David performed 'close up' magic at our company holiday party, captivating each group he engaged with. I appreciate that David had done a bit of homework about our company so that some of his punchlines included key buzz words and phrases from our high tech industry. David showed up early, performed throughout the designated time and stayed to ensure he had met my expectations. He was extremely prompt in responding to my initial request. I highly recommend David!” |
Virtual Events
“Our group enjoyed it so much that I am booking this activity for other groups in the company as well. David was great to work with and everyone loved the magic tricks. I would recommend David for your next event.” “David was awesome! He kept us all engaged through out his whole act and and loved that he has people participate!” "I love magic but was skeptical that this show would be well executed virtually. To my surprise, the magic was great and David was phenomenal! He was engaging with attendees and children, respectful of attendees' boundaries (wiliness to participate), and an excellent magician and teacher. I truly enjoyed how the show was split up into watching magic, participating in tricks and learning how to do a few tricks myself." “It was really fun! I enjoyed the jokes and participating in the tasks with David and the team. Recommended!” “This was so much fun! A really entertaining way to have a group team working session. I would def. book again!!! We laughed through the whole hour.” “David Martinez was so fun and entertaining!!! LOVED IT!!! The puns are HILARIOUS haha This was a really fun experience!” “We enlisted David for a virtual event to entertain a large group of about 75 people. He was the most responsive magician out of the few inquiries made and his easygoing, down-to-earth, and professional demeanor was immediately felt. The entire experience of enlisting his services (which were by far the most reasonable in rates) to execution could not have been smoother or easier. He is very well-versed in using Zoom, met with us prior to the event to learn about the group of people at the event, showed up on time, and put on an engaging and entertaining show. Everyone was delighted and it was a much needed lightness during these COVID times. We truly look forward to using David's services in the future not only at our annual event, but possibly for other staff events as well!” “David was great for entertaining our team with his magic and humor! We will definitely have him entertain us again in the future!” |
“David was extremely responsive, kind, attentive and organize prior to the event. He engaged each team member to make them feel comfortable and laughed with us along the way. His magic left us stunned and we really enjoyed his silly puns. I highly recommend booking David if you are looking for a good way to bond with a group of people and laugh for an hour straight.” "We were left laughing about it afterwards on our slack channels, what a great show! We loved it." “David did a great performance for the team and community. The staff members really enjoyed him and his humor. He is professional and responds quickly to emails and questions. He is amazing to work with. I definitely recommend anybody to hire him.” “David was amazing and kept all of us engaged and laughing through the entire show; it was a great event for the team.” “I brought David onboard to provide some virtual magic for my team at work. He was incredibly easy to work with in planning, providing a handful of options for what the show could shape up to be based on our attendees, and was very flexible and communicative to work with. The show itself was AWESOME! Whatever initial hesitations my team had around a virtual magic show went up in smoke within the first few minutes. David was engaging, funny, and included members of the audience in ways we couldn't have imagined. He was respectful and inclusive and truly magical. He comes highly recommended for anyone looking to spice up their day-to-day spent working virtually with a dispersed team!” “David put on an amazing show that was interactive and had some great twists!” "I was looking for fun entertainment for my team and I to engage in virtually and discovered David! I am quite a skeptic when it comes to magic but still love the shows and get bowled over by tricks I just can't figure out!! Seems like my team felt exactly the same way. Not only is David entertaining, he's personable and includes the audience in so many tricks that really keep the audience engaged and in hysterics! David did a phenomenal job with our motley crew and even went over time to complete his act. Highly recommend David if you're looking for group entertainment for virtual (and some in person) events!!.” |
Weddings
David performed at our wedding cocktail hour and all our guests couldn’t stop raving about how amazing his tricks were. Not only that, David brought an amazing energy and positivity to our event. He made us feel extra special as the bride and groom by doing a special trick for us and giving us a deck of cards to keep. He absolutely elevated our cocktail hour and we are so happy we had him play such a big role in our special day! “We booked David 48 hours before our wedding because our original cocktail hour entertainment option was outdoors, and there was a 100% chance of rain. From the start, David's genuine and kind personality shone compared to the other vendors. He was extremely responsive and asked questions about the event so he could tailor his magic to it. We were initially skeptical about having a close-up magician at our cocktail hour, but it ended up being one of the best decisions we ever made. Honestly, having David around almost made us grateful for rain on our wedding day -- otherwise we never would have had the chance to have him!” I hired David to perform walking magic at my wedding cocktail hour last year and was not disappointed. From the get go, David was extremely professional and responsive. What sealed the deal for me was that in our first email exchanges. he understood that the focus of the day would be on the wedding and making guests feel comfortable and happy during an otherwise awkward hour of mingling. In addition, David prepared a special magic trick for me and my husband, which was just delightful. I would hire David again for any event!" |
“David is simply an awesome entertainer and all round human! He provided 2 hours of magic at our wedding and it was a blast. People were laughing and crying out during his performance because the magic was so good (he has a magic plunger...). But more than that - he is the kind of person you actually want at your wedding. Incredibly warm, personable, funny, respectful and socially aware. He looked after and entertained all our guests and children but was particularly sensitive to those who were there by themselves and made them feel included and comfortable. I can't recommend David highly enough - a total gem!! ” "We hired David to do strolling magic at our wedding reception (6/25/22), and what a great decision that was! From the very first correspondence and phone call, he was responsive, communicative, and personable. Everyone was so impressed with him, and he made so many people laugh and smile! People came up to us and kept saying how awesome he was, because it was so unexpected and surprising! He created the perfect balance between having fun while at a more formal event. Beyond the magic itself, he was very easygoing and friendly. He managed to entertain our guests without being imposing, and had strolling magic for all ages. He was punctual, prepared, and flexible. Highly recommend, would definitely hire him again for a special event! What a great icebreaker and it was socially engaging for all guests. Thank you, David, for adding more magic to our magical event! A+++!!! “We're big fans of magic and loved the idea of hiring a magician for our wedding. David made it easy, he's very thoughtful, responsive, and professional. He went around doing close up magic in small groups during our reception and even did a trick for us when we entered. We heard nothing but good things from the guests, couldn't be happier!” |
House and Adult/Teen Parties
“David the Magician is extraordinary. He completely baffles and amuses guests at intimate and larger gatherings. He works the room beautifully, so no one is missed, and everyone dazzled. He is excellent at his craft and very amiable to boot. Totally recommend his services.” “We couldn't have asked for a better entertainer for my friend's bachelorette party. David took his time to learn all about the bride to be and the guests, and crafted a truly magical experience that was tailor made to us in every way. I wish I could give him six stars.” “I asked David to do a magic show at a milestone birthday for my husband who LOVES magic. My husband was thrilled with the surprise entertainment, and the other guests were enchanted by his performance. He added so much to the party. (Note: Many of the guests were "seniors," prone to a "been-there-done-that" outlook that evaporated as he won them over with his easy manner and entertaining tricks. Afterwards, they raved about him too.) David puts on a wonderful show, but he himself is not a "showy" showman. He fit right into the casual feeling of the party. In other words, in his acts, he was talking with us and not at us. David was also easy to deal with in the planning--very professional. He responded to all of my emails immediately, asked about the party and the party-goers to get the lay of the land well ahead of time, stayed late after the show to show my husband how to do a certain card trick, and was generous in his total approach. I hope we have occasion to cross paths again. I would highly recommend him.” “Could not have asked for a better entertainer. David was so funny and his magic was mind-blowing. He involved our guests and even did close up magic before the show. Afterwards everyone talked about how great it was and wanted to know how I found him. I would definitely hire David again.” “We just had our dad’s 99th birthday celebration and David truly was a highlight to the day... If you are looking for a thoughtful, “non-cheesy”, fun and low keyed entertainer that delights ALL ages, David is the man! You will not be disappointed!” “David was fabulous. We had him perform for my 13 year olds birthday party, which also had many adults in attendance. David showed up early and set up and started right on time. His sense of humor during the show was top notch. The magic was great and impressed the teens (and you know how teens can be) and the adults.” “We hired David for a high school graduation for 200 students. He was easy to work with and responded promptly to our messages/texts. David “the magician” (as the students called him) was one the highlights of the party. He was friendly and connected with the students with his impressive tricks. We highly recommend him for your event.” |
“A big fan of magic here and I have been to many magic shows before. I have witnessed close-up magic of David twice. Both times have been great. I highly recommend David Martinez for any corporate events or special occasions-he is punctual, responsive, respectful and professional. He is totally worth it. He should be on AGT or the Penn and Teller show.” “We had David over for an adult birthday party and he was AWESOME. He was super funny and incredibly engaging with the group, but most importantly he is just highly, highly skilled. He had entirely-sober MIT engineers losing their minds and shouting with glee at his truly incomprehensible magic. His close-up magic in particular is just truly ridiculous. He's a great partner to work with: he and I synched about the party beforehand and he made sure that for this crowd he showed up with some math-heavy stuff, a rubiks-cube-based set of magic, and other stuff that really appealed to the group and the birthday girl. I know for a fact he has enough up his sleeve to do an entirely different show, too. I will 100% work with David more!” “What a great find! David answered my questions so fast and acted so professionally all the time that I would definitely hire him again and recommend him to anyone.” “After the show, everyone kept asking me where I found him and how amazing he was. He had tricks that impressed everyone. I would definitely hire him again!” “I invited David to perform at a surprise birthday party for my brother's 54th. David put on an interactive and engaging show with just the right amount of humor for our all adult audience. Many of us took part in the experience and his act is a great opening for a memorable birthday party.” David was a fantastic magician and entertainer for my 50th birthday party. I loved how he spent part of his time mingling with small groups and doing slight of hand, followed by a show suitable for kids and adults alike." “David performed as a surprise at a birthday dinner. It was a great performance under semi-chaotic circumstances. Everyone enjoyed the close up magic. He works with you to create a magical experience. Definitely recommend hiring him for your next event!” David's show was so fun and magical for all ages. His performance for a 40th birthday was pitch perfect for a family gathering. So grateful for his professionalism and amazing talent." |
