Extremely Professional, and Organised.

Extremely professional pre wedding planning, Chris went through everything with us before the day detailing things we hadn’t even thought about that would make our evening even more special. Then the night event itself, Just Wow, the deejay set up added to the elegance of the venue, the perfect wedding set up, the dance floor was never empty, there was everything, songs that had everyone at the wedding evening on their feet, young generation and older generation, they were all up dancing, it was lovely to see. This deejay certainly knows his stuff and I wouldn’t even hesitate to book him again. For me he is the best around by far. Thank you so much Chris for making our evening so special.

Fantastic communication and lovely bloke

We hired Chris after he was recommended through a wedding fb group and we had checked out his reviews. His communication was fantastic from the get go, in an industry where we have had to chase almost every other vendor, this was so reassuring. We had no idea what to expect, but Chris kept us updated throughout and let us know what he needed from us and what we would be getting from him. We had an initial whatsapp video call where we discussed timings and tastes of our guests and he followed up regularly. On the evening, he was extremely flexible as we wanted to start the set earlier, which Chris sorted for us no problem. We took advantage of the karaoke and it went down an absolute storm, all of our guests loved it! His set up was professional and complemented our decor really well. He even sent us some videos and photographs he had taken for us on the evening. Thank you Chris for helping to make the night such a good one, we would definitely recommend!

Emergency DJ lighting hire

I contacted Chris in a bit of a panic as we needed to hire some DJ lighting for our wedding disco two weeks before our wedding day. Chris responded very quickly and sent pictures of the lighting that he had available for hire to check if it was what we needed. He provided us with a high quality lighting rig that was perfect for what we needed. Chris arranged the installation and collection at the venue and arranged a tutorial to show us how to work the lighting if we wanted to alter it during the night.

Overall it was an excellent experience with Chris and he provided us with a top tier service and really helped us out, especially given it was last minute. I would highly recommend using Chris for lighting hire if needed. With hindsight, I wish we had contacted him earlier and booked him for the whole the evening as it would it would have made our party a more seamless experience and caused less stress in the lead up.

Amazing service 🙂

Would definitely recommend Chris as a DJ not just a wedding DJ. He was really good at keeping in contact right up until our big day.
We had a meeting about what requests we wanted and what sort of music we wanted playing.
Loved his set up it looked really nice.
He also took some pictures of people on the dance floor which he sent to us via email.

Highly recommend!

Chris was brilliant! He made a set that was absolutely perfect for our wedding, included all of our must plays and flowed with our evening better than we dreamt of!
He allowed a don’t play list which was a huge relief. We also chose last minute to have the up-lighters in our room, which made such a difference
Chris was super professional and smart throughout, his equipment and attire on the night elevated our dance floor
No one was ready for our wedding to end and that was thanks to Chris, THANK YOU!

Outstanding Wedding DJ Highly Recommend!

We honestly couldn’t recommend Chris highly enough to anyone looking for a wedding DJ!

From our initial enquiry, through to the consultation and every bit of communication in between, the service was exceptional. Chris is incredibly professional while still making everything feel personal and relaxed. Whatever you ask for, he finds a way to deliver, and often goes above and beyond.

The slideshow and uplighting added such a magical touch to our day and made the venue feel even more special. Chris also hosted a kids’ party hour and went out of his way to keep the children entertained, they absolutely loved it!

What really stood out was his attention to detail. He captured key moments throughout the day that we hadn’t even thought about, giving us even more wonderful memories to look back on.

And to top it all off, at the end of the night he even gave my husband a lift home! 😂

Chris genuinely went above and beyond from start to finish. An outstanding DJ, fantastic with guests of all ages, professional, friendly and an absolute pleasure to have as part of our wedding day.

Thank you, Chris!! We would recommend you in a heartbeat! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

G&T Wedding

Chris was a fantastic DJ, he was very responsive in his communication, he listened to our wants and don’t wants which he accommodated. We had a zoom call prior to the day for him to introduce himself and go over some of the finer details which was reassuring. On the day Chris arrived early and very smartly dressed to look the part and the music was perfect! The dance floor was full all night.
An added bonus was that he recorded our first and last dance which he sent over a few days after the wedding. We highly recommend Chris.

Incredible!!

Chris was our evening DJ for our wedding, and we honestly couldn’t have asked for anyone better.

The whole process was smooth, simple and straightforward. Simple booking over email, quick responses and great communication. Also much cheaper than we expected!

We had a video call to go through all our plans, song requests, timings, lighting etc. He then checked in with us three, two and one week before the wedding to make sure we were completely happy with the plan. he was really flexible around our availability for this. He even offered to come along to our venue meetings to make sure all the timings and plans were perfect. He asked questions we hadn’t even thought of — the guy genuinely knows what he’s doing!

On the night itself, everything was spot on. We sent images over to create a slideshow which was simple to do and the pics were great quality. The guests loved this (almost as much as the karaoke which our guests still talk about how fun this was and was definitely the highlight of the night)

The dance floor was full all night, and Chris was beyond expert at reading the room and knowing exactly what vibe to go for. Everything flowed perfectly, and he made the whole evening feel effortless.

We genuinely cannot thank you enough Chris. You played such a huge part in making our wedding evening so much fun and so memorable.

Wedding DJ

Chris’s experience is clear to see, his communication throughout the planning process was exceptional and he made sure to understand exactly what we wanted for our evening. The must plays and do not plays were extremely important to us and Chris couldn’t have done anything better on the night- his timing was perfect and I had so many compliments from our guests about the music choices and how ‘us’ it was. Value for money truly surpassed our expectations. Could not recommend him more highly!

The Best Wedding DJ We Could Have Asked For!

We honestly couldn’t have asked for a better DJ for our wedding!

From the very beginning, the planning was incredible. We had as many meetings and FaceTime calls as we needed to talk through everything from music choices and lighting to the overall setup. Nothing was ever too much trouble, and the advice and knowledge gained from years of experience really helped us create the perfect evening. We also loved the complimentary slideshow of our memories – such a thoughtful touch that everyone enjoyed.

What really stood out was how everything was tailored to us. Rather than waiting until the last minute, he regularly checked in throughout the planning process to make sure we hadn’t forgotten anything and that he knew exactly what we wanted. It made the whole experience completely stress-free.

On the day, everything was set up well before the reception started, so there wasn’t a single thing for us to worry about. He was also incredibly flexible and even offered to help when we had an unexpected issue with the venue, which says everything about the kind of person he is.

A huge thank you as well for working so seamlessly with our sax player. The way you adapted throughout the evening was brilliant, and together you created an amazing atmosphere. Every song we’d asked for was played, and the dance floor was full all night!

If you’re looking for a wedding DJ who genuinely cares about making your day perfect, we can’t recommend him highly enough. Thank you for helping make our wedding so memorable!

Thank you for keeping the dance floor busy!

Chris was personable and professional throughout the whole process, from booking, lead up to the big day and throughout the whole evening.
He helped me with the planning, which really took away the stress and made it really easy to choose a plan for the evening.
Chris is so easygoing and will answer as many queries as you need, offering a truly flexible service. He was able to meet our needs on the day and kept our guests entertained during the evening. Thank you for bringing the vibes!
Please book Chris - you won’t be disappointed x

Amazing DJ!

Chris absolutely brought the party to our wedding! From the moment we booked, he took the time to get to know us and understand exactly the kind of atmosphere we wanted. We always knew we didn’t want the typical cheesy wedding playlist (sorry to those who do! 😂) – we love house and dance music, and Chris absolutely nailed it.

One thing we really appreciated was that he struck the perfect balance. Earlier in the evening, he played plenty of family favourites to keep everyone happy and get all generations involved, before seamlessly transitioning into the house and dance music we love later on. It meant everyone had an amazing time.

The dance floor was packed all night, and so many of our guests have since told us it was the best wedding they’ve ever been to. The music was a huge part of that.

One of our favourite moments was our first dance. Chris created the perfect mix of Pull Me Out of This by Fred again.., starting with the beautiful acoustic version before seamlessly blending into the original track. It was so unique and so “us” – we couldn’t have asked for anything better.

As an added bonus, he also sent us videos of our entrance to the evening reception and our first dance. They’ve already made us smile so much, and they’re memories we’ll treasure forever.

Chris was professional from start to finish, clearly knew his stuff, and made the whole process effortless. He also offers fantastic value for money – the service and experience we received were worth every penny.

Thank you, Chris, for creating the best atmosphere and giving us a night we’ll never forget. We only wish we could do it all over again! 🤍
