Totally Amazing. 100% Recommend Carl 🤩

Carl is a total star. Right from his initial communication to the actual event. We were so lucky to get Carl for our wedding. And WOW, it was totally amazing. He worked with us before the event to make sure he got our vibe and totally delivered. The music was fantastic, he’s a lovely guy, very professional and a total pleasure to deal with. As the bride you hope you’ve done your best in the planning, the rest is in the hands of the people you’ve trusted. Carl did us so proud. So a big THANK YOU from us. You totally made our day perfect.

Brilliant experience from start to finish

Carl was superb from the outset all the way through to the day of our wedding. From the first contact he was easy to communicate with, taking the time to talk about what we wanted and what he needed to best prepare for that. We shared a list of songs that we liked, and he used that to plan for the evening.

Carl was quickly contactable at all times and we used that in the run-up to talk about first dances, specific song requests and how we wanted to finish the evening. He used our timings for the day to plan when he would set up - and did so seamlessly while guests were upstairs.

All in all, it was an extremely smooth experience and brilliant value with the DJ booth set-up, lights and disco ball. The performance was great - and our guests loved it. We'd highly recommend Carl!

Smashed it!

We went with Carl off the back of the great reviews here, and now that our own wedding is over we are happy to be adding to them!

He was friendly, professional and quick to respond to anything we sent him.

With regards to the music he was on point all night with Carl really playing to the tastes of both us and the crowd, playing banger after banger to keep everyone on the dance floor. We would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for a DJ for their wedding, you can't go wrong!

What a DJ 🤝🏼

Carl kept the dance floor busy all night long, had an amazing energy to him and was so accommodating - building a fantastic playlist from our suggestions but happy to take request and factor these in. Only negative is he is an arsenal fan ! Thanks Carl for a great day

Absolutely Brilliant!

When Carl started his set it was our first dance. We decided to dance the first part and then halfway through, then my friends and I danced - however , I didn't indicate when the change would happen. He just say to give him a signal and he would change it. The way he handled it was just brilliant. We had a english and Indian wedding and he played a variety of Bollywood and English music. All the wedding party loved every moment. We could not recommend him enough for your wedding/party and we have no doubt that we would book him again!

Phenomenal!!!

I couldn’t recommend Carl anymore! He was incredibly professional, quick with responding and provided an amazing service at my wedding. He brought along his fellow musicians (saxophone player and drummer) and arranged my LED dancefloor for me - it made my wedding and had so many compliments for the whole thing.

If you’re considering a DJ - you’ve found your guy!

Just simply brilliant ⭐️ Carl will turn your celebration into an event !

Where do we even start..we cannot possibly put into a few sentences just how brilliant Carl is. From enquiry to event Carl was THE most engaging, empathetic & confident person to deal with , he was interested in us and that not only mattered but also came across on the night - he got us & our guests!
Every one of our guests mentioned Carl after our party, in particular one friend who also attends lots of weddings as a photographer - he has never witnessed, ever, the dance floor being full ALL night … Carl nailed it and then some 🙌🏻
Carl also organised bongos & sax and both were amazing - book Carl and let him do his thing, he knows his stuff and we will always be grateful for having the best night with memories that will last forever

True Professional

Carl was the best decision for bringing not only the party vibe and making sure the dance floor was filled all night on the night but for easing any stress pre the big day too.

Super knowledgeable, flexible, friendly and professional.
