My wife and I hired Xakary for my sons' combined birthday party (4 years and 1 year). I was a…read morelittle hesitant at first, but he exceeded my expectations. Xakary has developed an excellent routine that both engages and excites the little ones (and the not-so-little ones). A week later my son is still running around the house saying his "magic words" and asking me to make something magical happen. Besides entertaining, one of Xakary's primary strengths is the ability to keep a room full of excited young ones under some semblance of control. During the show the kids were absolutely squealing in barely-contained happiness (even the 1-year-olds were getting in on the action). Xakary kept a tight rein on the situation and kept it from getting out of hand. I wouldn't think twice about hiring Xakary for your party. Do it. You won't regret it.

I'm definitely the target market when it comes to magic shows/tricks - they blow me AWAY and I can't ever figure out how it's done! However, I'm convinced that Mark may actually just be a wizard because the stuff he does right in front of your eyes is phenomenal. He does all sort of tricks - visual, mind, predictions, etc. If I found out Mark was having a show that was something ridiculous like 4 hours long and a $500 ticket price, I would buy. Seriously. That's how great this guy is at what he does! Blown away doesn't begin to describe how excited I was about Mark's performance. Can't wait to be able to get the chance to check him out again!

Just to start, it takes a very good or a very bad experience to take the time to write a review…read more Although I have been busy, I knew I had to make the point to write Vince a review. I had a charity event that was located outside, unfortunately on a very cold and windy day. Vince gave me a checklist of everything he would need prior to the event. As long as all those things were available he said no problem. That's exactly how it went. Vince came out, was able to change in the back of a large moving truck we had, and he came out all Santa'd up and ready to hang out with our event for our time slot. Seeing this wasn't the typical office party or children's event I was a little worried Vince would feel out of place dealing with a different crowd and people that have been tailgating for the Seahawks game all morning... That wasn't the case. Vince did his Santa thing and had any size person come sit on his lap, have a conversation about Christmas wishes and posed for pictures. I believe I was told he politely asked people to set down their drinks prior to taking photos. Which I thought was a great touch (saving potential spills on him and also keeping a good professional profile of pictures. If you have ever taken a picture with a professional team mascot they use the same rule). We got some great photos and Vince was a fun and super easy Santa to have for our party. Even some overly drunk people probably talked Vince's ear off and he didn't care and kept his Santa face on and entertained their conversations and kept the spirit alive with every person. We had a couple veterans that related to his (Vince) family's involvement with the military as well that was mentioned to me. When Vince was finished he came out and visited with me and a couple others and had fun discussing other events we had in the books that same exact day! He also suggested other services they provide that may fit our charity tailgate party next year in case we were interested. Our event isn't always around Xmas so it was nice to hear about other things that might fit the bill. Vince adjusted to our needs to make our Santa visit go as smoothly as possible so I can definitely recommend him for that type of gig! I know a couple friends that kept his information for renting him for a company party in the future. Thanks for the great event Vince, and I hope this give assurance to people that are looking that Vince is the guy to hire! -Dan Linthicum
