The best DJ

Mike was amazing, from the first call we knew he was the right dj for us! He listened to what we wanted, incorporated our crazy range in music so easily! He played the best music so much so I didn’t leave the dance floor basically all night. We had so many compliments after our wedding about how amazing he was and one of our guests has even booked for their wedding! The best dj there is and couldn’t recommend highly enough!

Could not recommend Mike enough!

If you’re looking for a DJ and MC for your wedding day that has every aspect of your day covered it’s Mike. He is personal, thoughtful and ensures each part of your day runs smoothly. We couldn’t have wished for a better day.

We had a few special requests for our day that Mike was really accommodating with and helped prepare. Our guests really enjoyed their day. The music flowed well, with a mix to suit everyone. The dance floor was never quiet.

Thank you for making our day everything that we dreamed of and more🥰

Excellent Wedding DJ

DJ Mikey was great from start to finish and not just on the wedding day but before and after our big day.

He was attentive to our needs and made sure he knew what we wanted for our music, and helped build a playlist we loved.

He went beyond our expectations showing an interested in our whole day providing hints and tips to make our day special.

I would highly recommend this guy he was great value throughout.

The most incredible Wedding DJ!

We honestly cannot recommend Mike highly enough. He was absolutely incredible as both our DJ and Master of Ceremonies and played such a huge part in making our wedding day as amazing as it was.
From the build-up to the wedding right through to the end of the night, Mike was supportive, organised, reassuring and completely reliable. We are lucky enough to know him personally, which made having him there even more special. When things inevitably became a little chaotic, having Mike as that friendly, familiar face to calm us down, reassure us and make sure everything was running smoothly made such a difference.
His attention to detail was fantastic. Mike went above and beyond in so many ways, including making sure my bouquet was kept safe and even finding a way to keep it watered throughout the day! It was little touches like this that showed how much he genuinely cared about making our day perfect.
As Master of Ceremonies, Mike was brilliant. He kept everything moving, brought loads of energy to the wedding reception and came up with some fantastic ideas for games that had everyone involved and laughing. He struck the perfect balance between keeping everything organised while still making the day feel relaxed and fun.
Then there was the party! Mike read the room brilliantly and knew exactly what music to play and when to play it. The dance floor stayed alive and he adapted the music to the atmosphere throughout the night rather than simply working through a set playlist.
What stood out most was how much Mike genuinely cared. He did far more than we ever expected from a DJ or Master of Ceremonies. He was someone we could rely on throughout the whole day and nothing ever seemed like too much trouble.
Our wedding genuinely would not have been the same without him. Mike helped create the atmosphere, kept us calm, kept our guests entertained and made sure we could simply enjoy ourselves knowing everything was in safe hands.
We cannot thank Mike enough for everything he did for us. If you are looking for someone who will do far more than just play music and will genuinely invest himself in making your wedding day special, we could not recommend him more highly.

Mike was an absolutely massive part of our perfect day!

Fun experience from start to finish!

Mike was a great addition to our wedding reception! We really enjoyed working with Mike, from the first introduction call where we talked through the various options to using the DJ app which was really good fun and helped us to build the evening that we wanted. For our final meeting, Mike was great too, his knowledge of the venue was really helpful - he gave us a couple of pointers on where to set things up and suggestions to raise with the venue. On the day, it was seamless, and so many of our guests complimented his music and set-up on the day. Thanks Mike!

The BEST there is!!

Oh my gosh, where to start! Mike is exceptional at what he does! Not only is he the best DJ you could ask for, he is also an incredible MC. It’s easy to underestimate how important that is but it allows you to totally relax on your wedding day and let him make sure everything runs like clockwork. Mike is so flexible, knowledgeable and just such a nice guy too. We had a vision of getting our guests to the beach after our ceremony and Mike ushered everyone there with ease, but also brought the tunes! Book him and i guarantee you will not be disappointed. Thank you Mike for everything, we are so so grateful!

Could not recommend enough!!

The best wedding DJ you will ever find! Mike was recommended to us by many wedding venues we visited and also by friends. We are so glad we listened, all the reviews are true! From the first Zoom meeting with Mike we were impressed with his knowledge of weddings and were sold instantly. The communication going forward was so professional too! Mike is incredible, the music was perfect and the dance floor was full all night, he knows just what to play to pull people back! But he’s not just a DJ, Mike was at our wedding all day helping it to run smoothly - playing the music for the ceremony, orchestrating the confetti walk, helping the photographers and liaising with the wedding coordinator. Mike also was our MC, who introduced us to our guests for the meal, and the energy he creates in the room is amazing. He hosted some games too which the guests loved. We received so many compliments from guests about our DJ (Mike). So much more than just a DJ.
We could not recommend Mike enough 🙌🏼

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

We honestly can’t thank Mike enough for everything he did for our wedding. He was so much more than just our DJ and played a massive part in making the whole day what it was.

From the very start Mike was brilliant with us — friendly, funny, incredibly helpful and always there when we needed him. He helped organise everything from start to finish, including the light-up dance floor, selfie station and violinists, and made the whole process feel completely stress-free.

The advice cards he brought along were absolutely hilarious and such a great little touch — we had a proper laugh reading through them afterwards!

Then came the evening and Mike absolutely smashed it. The dance floor was rocking all night and he knew exactly what to play to keep everyone up dancing. The atmosphere was unreal and exactly what we wanted.

More than anything, Mike is just a genuinely lovely bloke who clearly cares about making your day special. It never felt like we’d just booked a supplier — he felt like part of the wedding.

One of the best decisions we made. If you’re thinking about booking Mike, just do it!

Thank you for everything!

A MUST HIRE for your wedding!!

All we can say is WOW! From meeting Mike 2 years before our wedding I knew we had to book him and have him DJ our wedding. He made us feel instantly at ease and just knee deep down he was the one for us!! You don’t just get a DJ you get A co ordinator, a helping hand, an MC and a friend! He made our day so wonderful and run so smooth and I felt I could trust him from the off! By far one of my best decisions we made on our wedding day! We love you Mike! Thank you for everything

Best dj & mc ever!

If you want a packed dance floor from the first song to the last, Mike is your guy.

From the very first call, to the moment he came to our house to go through the final details, Mike made us feel completely at ease. He listened to exactly what we wanted, and using his app to add our own songs and preferences was so simple and made the whole process stress-free. He even helped us pull off one of our favourite moments of the day by playing a pre-recorded voice note during our wedding breakfast entrance to prank our guests—it went down perfectly!

As both our DJ and MC, Mike kept everything running seamlessly. His timings were spot on, he was incredibly attentive throughout the day, and everything flowed exactly as we'd hoped. We hired Mike's optional Photo Booth which went down an absolute storm!
The music was absolutely brilliant. The dance floor was full all night with guests of every age, and seeing my nan in her 70s dancing alongside everyone else says it all! We honestly couldn't have asked for better music, better vibes or a better person to help make our day so memorable. Thank you, Mike!

Mike is a master of his trade!

Mike is hands down the best DJ! We booked him for our wedding and we’re so glad we did. He genuinely is a master of his trade.

From the very beginning, Mike took the time to get to know us as a couple and really understand our favourite artists, genres and the kind of atmosphere we wanted for our wedding. The whole planning process was seamless, helped by his incredibly professional app, and by the time our wedding came around, we felt like Mike knew our music taste like the back of his hand!

You could tell how much time, thought and energy he’d put into crafting the perfect set for us – and he absolutely smashed it. His energy on the night was unmatched and we had the absolute night of our lives. The dance floor was everything we’d hoped for and more!

So many of our guests have reached out since to say how incredible Mike was and how they genuinely didn’t want to leave the dance floor all night – which says it all.

If you’re thinking about booking a DJ for your wedding, Mike is absolutely your guy. You will not be disappointed!

Thank you, Mike, for playing such a huge part in making our wedding celebrations unforgettable. I’m already thinking about the next big occasion I can book you for… see you in five years for my 40th, Mike! 😂❤️

Absolute wedding pro

With Mike at the helm we always had total confidence our wedding celebration was going to be a day to remember. In our first meeting with Mike after a few questions he played a sample of the kind of tracks he would play on the night, perhaps 20 songs he chose, he nailed every single one. Mike was so on it we decided we had to have him as the MC for the day and promptly booked Liz the saxophonist too. His Vibo app worked brilliantly to help him gather more information. On his second meeting with us Mike was great at helping us pick a first dance song and a plan for little parts of the day and had great ideas about where it was ok to break with tradition to do something that was a bit different. Thanks Mike for helping make our day so special.

Absolutely amazing, from start to finish.

DJ Mike was absolutely amazing, from start to finish. We had an initial meeting with Mike where he got to know us, worked out what we wanted for our day and informed us how he could deliver this. His app was brilliant and enabled us to let Mike know what music we were into (and what music we’re not into!), as well as iron out all timings for the day/night, which made things run like clockwork on the day. We had Mike with us throughout our entire day and we were extremely glad we did - Mike was organised and energetic, brought the vibes and make the whole day run seamlessly. In the evening, the vibes continued and despite England being involved in a quarter-final of the World Cup, youu wouldn’t have known it, as everyone was on the dancefloor! For anyone considering DJ Mike’s services, we would wholeheartedly recommend, as our special day would have certainly been less special without DJ Mike being there. Thank you once again, Mike, from a grateful and newly-wed Mr & Mrs Arthur

Without a doubt,book DJ Mike!

We absolutely hit the jackpot when we booked Mike for our wedding. From our very first meeting, we knew he was going to make our special day unforgettable and that he did, in every single way.

Mike has an incredible passion for what he does, so much knowledge, so genuine and all round nice guy.

We trusted him completely, and he went above and beyond in every way. One of the most meaningful things he did was stream parts of the day so my mum could watch and feel included. I’ll be forever grateful for that. ❤️

The music is what most people think of when booking a wedding DJ, and Mike absolutely nailed it and the epic encore was the perfect ending! So many of our guests have commented on how fantastic he was. But Mike offers so much more than just great music, he helped make the whole day feel truly special.

We honestly couldn’t recommend Mike highly enough. Thank you for everything you did to make our wedding so memorable.

You’re an absolute legend!

You were brilliant on the day! And throughout our planning journey, So organised and professional.
