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!

Best man for the job!

Mike how can we thank you enough?
You were brilliant on the day! And throughout our planning journey, So organised and professional.
The leading up to the wedding you made sure we could have meetings when suited us, which was perfect considering how busy we were with work commitments!
On the day you helped everything flow so easily, you helped us with song choices and what would work better where. Our toast man, our mc, our music man!!
Everyone who attended said “how good is your dj?! He does everything!”
We were so glad we had you through everything! You really are the best at what you do!

The best DJ we could have asked for

Mike was absolutely fantastic from start to finish - my wife did some searching around for someone to handle our evening entertainment and found Mike as a highly recommended wedding DJ - so we set up a call to talk through the services he offers and how it all works. By the end of the call myself and my wife were totally convinced there was no reason to speak to any other DJs as Mike had completely sold us on what he offers.

Communication leading up to the wedding was ideal, we knew what was needed from us and we had a couple of final meeting calls with Mike to wrap up the last of the decisions we needed to make, which he offered a lot of help and advice on to make sure that the vibe of the wedding flowed perfectly.

On the day of the wedding he delivered exactly what he had talked us through on the original call and all the follow up calls between booking him and the wedding itself - Everything went smoothly and we couldn't have asked for a better DJ to entertain our guests for the evening.

The Manners 22.05.2026

We were lucky enough to have Mike DJ at our wedding in May and we couldn’t have asked for better! From our first conversation through to the last song of the night, Mike handled everything professionally and made our day run so smoothly! He took time to understand exactly what we wanted and he created an incredible atmosphere for our whole day! We have had soo many compliments from our guests about how good the music, the saxophonist and the vibe was throughout the day! Mike made our wedding day so memorable! We would highly recommended Mike to anyone who is looking for a talented, reliable and genuinely brilliant wedding DJ! ⭐️

More than a DJ!

At the start of our wedding planning, we were undecided about having Mike for the whole day, but choosing to do so turned out to be one of the best decisions we made.

Mike made the entire day run seamlessly—we genuinely didn’t have to think about a thing. He understood exactly the atmosphere we wanted to create and was incredibly helpful whenever we were unsure about music choices or timings. His example playlists are endless and were such a useful resource during the planning process.

We also chose to have a live saxophonist, Dom, and it was an amazing addition to the evening. The combination of Mike and Dom created such an incredible atmosphere.

Mike didn’t just play music we liked; he knew how to read the room and keep everyone on the dance floor all night long. He brought so much energy to the celebration and helped make our wedding unforgettable. We couldn’t recommend him more highly.

Magic Mike!

We honestly couldn’t have asked for a better DJ and MC than Mike for our wedding day.

From the moment the day started, Mike kept everything running smoothly and effortlessly. He did an incredible job as MC, making sure everyone knew what was happening, when it was happening, and where they needed to be. There were never any awkward lulls or moments of confusion – he kept the energy high, the atmosphere fun, and the whole day flowing perfectly.

What really stood out was how well he engaged with our guests. He kept everyone entertained, created a fantastic atmosphere throughout the day, and made sure the momentum never dropped. So many of our friends and family commented on how great he was and how much he added to the overall experience.

Then came the evening party, and Mike absolutely nailed it. The music was spot on from start to finish, and he seemed to know exactly what songs to play to keep people dancing and having a great time. We received countless compliments from guests about the music and the atmosphere he created.

Mike played such a huge part in making our wedding day unforgettable, and we genuinely can’t thank him enough. If you’re looking for a DJ and MC who is professional, organised, engaging, and knows exactly how to keep a crowd entertained, we couldn’t recommend Mike more highly.
