Sheldon had everybody up and dancing

My husband and I had a joint birthday tea dance last week at the Grimsdyke Hotel. Sheldon provided fabulous jazz and soft music on guitar and keyboard during the tea. After this he became our DJ and had everybody up and dancing for 2 hours! I have had so many wonderful comments from my friends and family all citing the great job Sheldon did.
I would not hesitate to have Sheldon supply the music for any parties or functions we have in the future.

Superb

Sheldon's wedding trio were superb, covering the songs we picked for our playlist as well as some well-chosen gems that captured the mood perfectly, all performed in their own unique funky style. Great soundtrack for our special day, highly recommended

Just fabulous!

Everyone said to us before the wedding "make sure you have a good wedding band, because that will make or break the day'" (no pressure at all!!), but you totally blew our expectations away. Song selection, instrumentals, and vocals were outstanding. We really wanted a wedding with a lot of dancing and you kept the dance floor packed all night. All our guests have been raving about you - we had friends who hadn't been on a dance floor for 15 years going for it! The transition from ceremony, to dinner band to full-on dance band and then DJ was seamless - awesome. Special thanks to Alex for the acoustic guitar and vocals in the ceremony and then the cover of "The Wonder of You" for our first dance - just perfect.

Thank you so much for being a part of our wedding! We really enjoyed having you there.

Just fabulous!

Everyone had such a good time

I was a bit worried about arranging music for our wedding but from the first phone call with Sheldon I knew it'd be fine. He was very relaxed and really helpful and it all worked out brilliantly at our reception - everything from the music during the meal to the first dance to a special request for us leaving was perfect and the fact that the dance floor was so popular was very much down to his and the band's energy, enthusiasm and talent! You never know if people will be up for dancing but as soon as he invited couples to join us after the first dance it was packed and stayed packed for the rest of the evening. He even arranged some uplighters for us which really transformed the dance floor and everyone had such a good time, both the guests and the band because you could tell they were enjoying playing as well. What a night, thank you Sheldon!

Great fun

We saw Sheldon and his trio perform at two friends weddings and had such a great time, we knew we wanted to book him for our special day. Now, since having him perform at our own wedding we have experienced the joy of both sides, great fun on the dance floor as well as the ease of working with him to prepare for our day. He and his trio were, professional, dynamic to change based on the flow of the day, charismatic, and they looked sharp! We had a fabulous day! Thank you.

Couldn't have done it without him

My eyes and ears genuinely lit up the day I found Sheldon, he had the most professional website, he was passionate and tech savvy enough to have video blogs. For a future bride to bride I loved watching them and picturing my own big day. It wasn't just that though because the first time I emailed Sheldon, I had an instant and helpful response and within a day, we were speaking on the phone. He knew exactly what to say and even explained that rather than paying for a DJ, he could do it all in one. This made perfect sense to me, as my experience juggling suppliers for events, I was desperate to hire one pro to take over one element of the wedding. And choosing Sheldon to organise the audio was the best decision I could have made.

After our first call I knew I'd made the right decision, as he was an absolute pro. I couldn't help but tell everyone just how much I'd hit the jackpot!

In the six months before the wedding, Sheldon often got in touch, to catch up and reassure me. This was an amazing touch.

The day itself was perfect, and having someone like Sheldon on hand to run the full audio throughout the day was an absolute god send. We didn't have to worry that the music would cut out at points, he had it covered. He was also always there with a smile and listened when my drunk friends requested songs, but all in all he chose songs that improved the night.

What would I rate Sheldon out of ten? I couldn't he was too fantastic!! All I wish is I could do it all again and I would hire him all over again.

Just brilliant

We got married in Italy and Sheldon was very very easy to deal with. He was on time, did exactly what he said he was going to do. Just brilliant, he's incredibly talented.

We were delighted

We chose DJ Shel for our wedding party after an exhaustive search on Google. We were looking for someone to create a really intimate party atmosphere with a wide range of music to cater for all age groups and had been encouraged by his website and Instagram posts. Following a couple of ‘get to know you’ phone calls, we decided that he was the DJ for us, so we went ahead and hired him. This turned out to be an excellent decision.

DJ Shel hit the nail on the head. He played all our requested music and we were delighted with the overall feel of the night. The party was very successful and we had a lot of compliments from our guests for how fabulous the whole wedding was including the party.

We would be very happy to recommend DJ Shel to anyone.

You helped make our day perfect and so special!

Sheldon performed 3 45 minute sets at our wedding, our first dance and then was our DJ for the rest of the evening. From our first conversation, Sheldon was fantastic. He even learnt a song from a YouTube video for our first dance and it was perfect! All our guests have commented how good he was. The choice of songs was perfect and he had everyone dancing until the end of the night. Highly recommend!

Thank you again for everything. You helped make our day perfect and so special!

Would recommend to anyone

Our wedding was an intimate occasion in a small hotel in Henley on Thames. Sheldon was an integral part of this, playing and singing live for our reception drinks and later DJ for our party. His live act was outstanding- creating a convivial atmosphere for our reception and complimented by many of our guests. We appreciated Sheldon's versatility and helpfulness - filling in gaps when needed with great background music for our civil ceremony and over dinner, changing plans due to bad weather and the time he took to understand what we were looking for before the day. We think Sheldon was a real 'find' and would recommend him to anyone!

A massive thank you

I would like to say a massive thank you for your performance at mine and Nicola’s wedding – I believe the two sets that you played in the courtyard really made the wedding, and is one of the main things that people have been commenting on.

Having our first dance sung rather than played by a DJ was really special, and your level of professionalism was second to none.

I would recommend your services to anybody having a wedding, or any other special occasion, and once again would like to thank you for making our day that little bit more special.

Set the Tone

Just a quick note to say thank you for your performance on Sunday afternoon at my engagement party. I was surprised by how many people kept coming up to me and asking about you because they were all really impressed with the performance. Although I knew you were good which is why i booked you in the first place! ??

You set the tone perfectly and completed the atmosphere to make a great engagement party

You were fantastic

Hi Sheldon. You were fantastic to deal with; so professional and reliable. You managed to do 5 jobs
in one evening :- MC, DJ, pianist, guitarist and singer! You were always calm and took on board all
our requests and needs from start to finish. Thank you so much. We would happily recommend you
to play at our friend’s functions in the future.

He is a great guy

We’re so glad we had Sheldon DJ at our wedding. He played every single one of our favourite tunes
and threw in his own ones which blended perfectly with what we wanted. His mixing was seamless
and he kept people of all ages on the dance floor from the 1st track to the last. He is a great guy and
very easy to work with. If you want a wicked DJ for your party, then Sheldon is your man!
