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.

Great all round Dj
There is not one bad thing I can say about chris. He was quick, knowledgeable, professional and freindly. He worked with us to get what songs we liked and played all the songs me and my partner liked all throughout the night.
He was flexible with times and even helped to get the night back on track due to a hiccup earlier in the day. He was kind and firm with guests and let me know if there was any problems so they could be sorted quickly.
He even did a slide show of our many pictures to show during the night which was a very nice personal touch. I can't reccomend him more for any event.

Chris was super professional and absolutely amazing.
From the beginning, his communication and planning were brilliant and made everything so easy.
On the night, the music was perfect and kept the atmosphere going all evening.
I couldn’t have asked for a better DJ and would highly recommend Chris.
Thank you so much

Excellent DJ
Chris big band DJ was fantastic. I had a small intimate wedding down in Scarborough, I live in Scotland. Chris was so accommodating, and easy to contact, he kept me update with the plan for setting up and went over music, me and my now husband wanted. Chris knows how to read the room, and what to play and when, would definitely recommend him for any occasion. 5 stars for sure.

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!

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! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

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.
