- They suit indoor and outdoor venues and need very little space or setup.
What are mirror men?
Mirror men are roaming performers dressed head to toe in costumes covered with small mirror tiles. Under venue lighting they sparkle and throw reflections around the room, and they interact with guests through movement, poses and photo moments rather than words.
They are a popular choice for Asian wedding receptions, sangeet nights, Christmas parties and brand events because they create atmosphere without taking over the running order.
What affects the price of mirror men?
The number of performers is the first factor. One mirror man can cover a drinks reception, while two or more give you presence across a large room and better photo opportunities. Time on site is the next factor, because mirror costumes are heavy and warm and performers work in sets with breaks.
Travel, date and costume style also play a part. Some performers offer LED mirror suits, coloured tiles or stilt versions, which change the look and sometimes the price.

Tip from our team: If you only have budget for a short booking, focus it on the drinks reception and the entrance. Those are the moments when every guest is looking in the same direction.
How long do mirror men perform for?
Mirror men typically perform in sets with breaks in between. The costumes are heavy, hot and restrict movement, and short, energetic sets keep the performance sharp.
In our experience the best approach is to plan the sets around the moments you care about most: the drinks reception, the couple's entrance and the first hour of the dancefloor.
Tip from our team: Ask your venue for a private changing room close to the main room. It saves time between sets and keeps the costumes out of sight until the reveal.

What is included when you book mirror men?
A standard booking includes the performers, their costumes and their time on site. Performers arrive in time to change and should be vetted and insured, which is the case for all Party Central partners.
Because mirror men do not need power, staging or a sound system, there are few hidden costs. Your main job is to share the running order and confirm where they can change.
It is worth confirming timings in writing, including arrival, first set, breaks and finish. That way everyone, including the venue team, knows exactly when the mirror men will be in the room.
How can you get better value from mirror men?
Put them where the lighting is best. Mirror costumes need light to sparkle, so uplighting, moving heads or a spotlight on the dancefloor make a big difference. Your DJ or lighting supplier can help.
Venues with dark wood panelling or low lighting, which is common in some older hotels in Manchester and London, benefit most from a focused light. In a bright modern ballroom the costumes will already catch plenty of light.
Pairing also works well. Mirror men alongside a dhol player for the entrance, or with stilt walkers on the dancefloor, give you a bigger moment for a small increase in planning.

When are mirror men not the right fit?
In bright daylight with no lighting, the effect is softer, so a daytime garden reception may not show them at their best. They are also a visual act rather than a show, so if you want something guests sit and watch, a magician or a dance performance may suit better.
We are always happy to talk through what works for your venue and timings.
Frequently asked questions
How much are mirror men for a wedding?
Most mirror men bookings start from £495. Exact pricing depends on availability, your exact requirements, time on site and location, so we quote each booking individually.
Do mirror men talk to guests?
Usually not. Mirror men perform through movement, poses and interaction, which adds to the mystery and makes them great for photos.
Do mirror men need space or setup?
They need very little. A private changing area near the main room and a clear route to move through guests is usually all that is required.
Can mirror men perform outdoors?
Yes, although they sparkle most under artificial light. Outdoor performances work well in the evening or with good lighting.
