NoLIta

Laughter in every booth at NoLIta

At Simon and Kate's wedding at NoLIta, Jamie moved from booth to booth with a deck of cards. Studio Brown's photos show the result: hands over faces, a high-five across the table and guests bent double laughing.

Jamie knows NoLIta from company events too. In June 2022 he performed there for Irish Life at a summer function.

NoLIta has rooms over several floors, from the Front Bar to the Garden Bar & Terrace. Close-up magic needs no stage, so it suits every one of them.

Jamie is a three-time weddingsonline award winner, from 2022 to 2024. In 2026, weddingsuppliers.ie named him Wedding Entertainer of the Year and LetsTalkWeddings.ie named him Wedding Magician of the Year.

He also holds the rank of Associate of the Inner Magic Circle with Silver Star from The Magic Circle.

Your day at NoLIta

Magic for the drinks and the tables

Pre-Dinner Presto brings close-up magic to the drinks reception, so guests who have never met have something to laugh about together.

After the meal, After-Dinner Presto takes highly interactive table magic to each booth and table, and keeps the energy up until the party starts.

Choose one or book both. Send Jamie the plan for your day at NoLIta, and he will suggest where the magic fits.
