Beats & Smiles - an Award Winning wedding DJ located in the Midlands! I DJ for Red Bull, Nando's and The BBC but predominantly focus on weddings. My DJ career has taken me across the globe from Italy to California, DJing with names such as Annie Mac, MistaJam, Scott Mills, Charlie Sloth, Malkit Singh and more headlining venues such as the O2 Academy before switching my focus to weddings. My sets are all bespoke, and I work with all clients beforehand to make sure we have the perfect playlist for your perfect day. Each set is specifically created for each event and all setups are fully customisable. I have a very vibrant personality behind the decks and aim to create an ultra fun atmosphere for the best day of your life!

Excellent DJ for our fusion wedding

Aamir from Beats & Smiles was great as our fusion wedding DJ. He accommodated all our music requests.
His enthusiasm, bubly personality and friendly approach was much appreciated and his use of the Dhol drum was just brilliant. He made our evening so memorable. Thank you Aamir.
Highly recommended.

Beats and Smiles put us straight at ease and helped us make our wedding unique and tailored to us

Our experience with Aamir was fantastic. From the initial call he put us right at ease and was able to help us with music ideas and suggestions.

He was able to tailor the evening playlist to our particular taste and took suggestions to weave into his set, even down to working in specific songs for specific people in the wedding party when he saw them on the dance floor.

Prices were competitive too, and we ended up liking him so much that we booked him for the full day to handle our ceremony music, speeches and background music, rather than just for the evening as we originally planned.

We had even kind enough to take some candid videos of the dancing from the booth and sent them on to us afterwards off his own back.

Would heartily recommend to any couples looking to get married in the midlands!

Oddhouse Farm, Nottinghamshire - Thank you!

We have been lucky to have Beats and Smiles DJ for us here at Oddhouse Farm Wedding & Event Venue, several times now and each time has been an absolute pleasure. Aamir is the ultimate professional and nothing is too much trouble. His positive attitude and smile is refreshing and your dance floor is guaranteed to be busy! From a venue's perspective, it is always a good sign if the guests hit the dance floor early and don't come off until the end of night, and the staff are finding it hard not to dance! We would not hesitate in recommending Beats and Smiles for your Big Day entertainment!

Worlds best DJ!

Having Aamir as our DJ was the honestly one of the best decisions we made for our wedding.

We planned our wedding in just 11 weeks and had originally decided not to have a DJ due to budget constraints and not really having time to find one. Then my husband to be decided we definitely did need a DJ to ensure there was a good atmosphere during the evening reception but this left us with less than 5 weeks before the big day.

My mum saw a post from Aamir on a local facebook page and sent his website over to me so I could give him a call and he instantly put me at ease. Luckily, he had a last minute space available and he was so friendly and bubbly. He was very helpful regarding finding the type of music we wanted at the wedding and although my husband had lots of songs he wanted played throughout the night, Aamir still made sure to include the 3 songs I had requested for the day.

He really set the mood for the evening event and kept the energy high all night! He even let my husband have a go on the decks which was brilliant. He also took a few videos from behind the decks and sent them to us which was so lovely to have as we couldn’t find a videographer at short notice so those moments are very special to us.

We couldn’t recommend him enough and we will definitely be using him again at any events we hold in the future. He is truly a ray of sunshine and a fabulous human, whilst also being the most amazing DJ anyone could ask for. We’ve bumped into him a few times since the wedding and we always end up chatting for ages!

Fabulous DJ

Aamir was incredible at our wedding. He understood our music tastes and really delivered on the night. I never left the dance floor and had an incredible evening. He was able to read the room to ensure everyone was involved and having a good time. Communication was great and we didn’t have any problems.

The perfect way to make your party

Aamir absolutely brought the party to our wedding, but without being "that cheesy DJ" or playing anything that alienated anyone. He took our favourite songs and created a perfect night with each song merging into the next without killing the vibe. He knew how to get people moving and made it the perfect way to end our wedding.
Operationally he was also great at keeping in contact, arrived on time, worked with the venue easily, set up quickly and quietly, took onboard all our special requests, always answered my questions quickly and amazing value for the money. Highly recommend!

Our Special Day

Aamir is the perfect DJ for all celebrations. He is so enthusiastic & nothing makes him happier than seeing everybody on the dance floor having fun. Aamir DJ'd at our Wedding Reception. Playing background music during the afternoon & then the atmosphere in the evening was amazing. He will play any genre of music you would like & always happy to play requests. The communication with Aamir is excellent, nothing is too much trouble, finding out & discussing the playlist of our choice. Our guests were so impressed & Aamir has been highly recommended & went on to play at a friends 60th Birthday Party. Rates very reasonable.

Unforgettable!

Communication and service were exceptional—10/10. Such a genuine person, and it was an absolute pleasure having him be a part of our special day. He really understood the vibe of the crowd and made sure everyone had a great time. We received nonstop compliments from our guests about how fantastic the music was! Made the evening celebrations of our wedding one to remember!

The best DJ we have ever come across!

Aamir recently DJ’d at our wedding and we honestly couldn’t have chosen a better person to do the job. Even with a last minute venue change, Aamir was nothing but accommodating! The set up was brilliant and he played songs throughout the evening catered to every single guest. He even handled the wild requests from all the kids brilliantly😂 everyone commented on how amazing he was throughout the night. Can’t wait to throw another party just to use Aamir again! Thank you so much. Chelsea & Scott x

This DJ is the Labrador of all vendors!

I hired Aamir for his multicultural attributes and he knew the assignment!
He was a huge hit with the guests, he’s super responsive and he’s so involved and very excited in everything you have planned for him!
I’d recommend him to anyone who wants a high energy, motivated, outgoing dude who will be an absolute gem with the aunties ;)

Amazing experience with Amir ✨

Amir is such a great Dj! He really got to know us before the wedding to understand our mixed culture vibe (Arab/Asian) and did not fail to deliver on the day. We had a packed dance floor the whole evening. Thank you so much Amir! ❤️✨
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to make your big decisions easier.
