Tracey's Wedding at the Mercure St Helens: Magic Mirror Magic

What a day it was. We had the absolute pleasure of being part of Tracey's wedding at the Mercure St Helens on 6th June 2026, and it was one of those events that reminded us exactly why we love what we do.

A Brilliant Venue for a Wedding

The Mercure St Helens is a fantastic setting for a wedding. With its smart, well-appointed function spaces and professional service, it gives couples a venue that handles the big day with ease. The atmosphere struck the perfect balance between elegant and relaxed, making it a great fit for the fun, celebratory energy our Magic Mirror brings to a room.

St Helens sits in the heart of the North West, well within our regular coverage area across Lancashire and beyond. It is always great to work in a venue where the team clearly takes pride in what they do.

The Magic Mirror at Tracey's Wedding

We set up our Magic Mirror in style for Tracey and her guests, and it was busy from the moment the reception got going. The Magic Mirror is always a crowd-pleaser at weddings, and this one was no exception.

Here is what guests had access to on the day:

• A striking Red Carpet with Ropes and Silver Stanchions to set the scene and make every guest feel like a VIP
• A Fun Prop Box packed with accessories to get even the shyest guests laughing
• Bespoke Print Design tailored specifically to Tracey's wedding, so every print was a proper keepsake
• A choice of hundreds of print templates to complement the design
• Double Prints so guests could keep one and pop one in the wedding guest book
• Unlimited Visits throughout the hire period, so no one missed out
• Space for 4 or more people in each shot, perfect for big family groups and friendship squads
• A Download Link with High Quality Digital Copies for every image taken
• An Online Gallery so guests could revisit the memories long after the day was done
• Our Friendly Attendant on hand throughout to keep things running smoothly and get the most out of every group
• Full Setup and Takedown handled by us, with PLI and Insurance Certificates provided

The red carpet and stanchions in particular added a real wow factor to the room. Guests were queueing up from early on, and the prop box meant there was never a dull shot taken all evening.

A Keepsake for Everyone

One of the things we love about the Magic Mirror at weddings is how it becomes a shared experience. Groups of friends, families across generations, the wedding party, even the little ones all piled in for their moment. With double prints on offer, guests walked away with something tangible from the night.

The bespoke print design made a real difference too. Having Tracey's names and wedding date woven into every print turned a fun activity into a proper memento of the day.
