On Hitched.co.uk since 2023

Last update: March 2026

Marvellous Disco isn’t just a DJ service. It’s the moment your quiet uncle ends up doing air guitar at midnight.

I’m Simon, the face behind Marvellous Disco, and for over 21 years I’ve been helping couples turn “we hope people dance” into “we didn’t leave the dance floor all night.”

From your first dance to the last song of the evening, I read the room, mix live and build the energy properly. No cheesy clichés, no awkward silences, just packed dance floors and the right song at the right time. Whether it’s 90s throwbacks, R&B, indie, dance, Motown or a bit of everything, your wedding soundtrack is built around you.

I cover weddings across the North of England, the Scottish Borders and beyond, bringing a clean, modern setup with stunning lighting and crystal-clear sound that looks incredible in photos and feels amazing on the dance floor. Over 240 genuine five-star reviews say more than I ever could.

Something very unique that you will rarely find with other wedding DJs? I record every wedding mix, so you can relive your first dance and that wild final song years down the line.

If you want a DJ who genuinely cares, blends seamlessly into your day, and knows how to fill a dance floor without stealing the spotlight, we’ll get on brilliantly.

Let’s make your wedding the one everyone still talks about.

Wedding night

I cannot recommend this DJ enough. We had the option of just a standard DJ or an additional silent disco. We went for the silent disco which was great, we were able to select 3 channels, meaning the different genres kept the dance floor going all night. It was budget friendly and by far the best value for money quote that we received. Also, there was a website we used where you could submit which songs you wanted, and more importantly, ones you didn’t! It was easy to get in touch with Simon via WhatsApp, he was professional and always prompt with his responses.

Simon tailored the whole night around us, I know for a fact that I will never use a better DJ!

Thanks Simon!

Fantastic DJ and Silent Disco

Booked Simon for our wedding, couldn't recommend his service enough. It was easy to select our song choices on his website and easy to communicate with him on WhatsApp. He also organised our silent disco which was fantastic and ran seamlessly on the night, the equipment was top notch.

Best wedding DJ in the North East!

We hired Simon for our wedding and couldn’t recommend him enough!

His communication was great from our initial emails until the big day. We had to change the timings of our day slightly after our final venue meeting and Simon was more than flexible.

Having an individual portal on the website to upload our song requests and compile a do not play list meant that on the night every song was a hit. Our dance floor was full the whole night and Simon knew how to keep the party going.

In terms of value for money I do not think you will find better in the North East, it was truly five star service.

The most amazing disco

We can't rate Simon highly enough, from start to finish he was superb!
The website was fantastic and we loved the fact we could select a playlist with as little or as much music on, it was a lovely touch.
The music he played was fab and got everyone up on the dancefloor, it was such a lovely atmosphere.
Thank you again Simon for being part of our special day, couldn't recommend enough 😊

Fantastic Disco!

We got married in October 2024 and we asked Simon at marvellous disco if he would be our DJ as he came highly recommended from a couple of friends who had him DJ at their wedding.

From the offset, Simon was helpful and professional. If we had questions he responded within hours, sometimes even minutes. On the day itself our dance floor was never empty. He catered for everybody and allowed us to have the kind of night we wanted, which was laid back, fun and full of drunken dance moves!

We would recommend marvellous disco to anyone. He was great value, easy to deal with and made things a lot less stressful and more enjoyable. Thank you so much for making our day even more memorable... From the Glendinnings 🙂.

Wedding DJ Adam and Lara

Absolutely fantastic service, kept in touch frequently, used out playlist and made it flow and work considering it was quite a range of music. Very fair on price and couldn’t have been a better day for us. Made the party at the evening part of our wedding and would highly recommend to anyone!

5 stars all round

This was the second time I’ve booked Marvellous Disco with Simon – first for my engagement party, and most recently for my wedding – and once again, he absolutely smashed it! From start to finish, the service was top quality. Simon is professional, friendly, and really knows how to read the room to keep the energy high and the dance floor full. The setup looked fantastic, and the music was spot on all night.
Prices are very reasonable for the level of service you get!
Couldn’t have asked for a better DJ – thank you for helping make both of our special days unforgettable!

Perfect Wedding Disco!

Simon was a complete professional from
Start to finish. Any questions and queries we had we received quick answers via email. The online portal to add ourselves and our guests requests was so easy to use and made the process so much more enjoyable. Our wedding party had so much fun and that was all thanks to Simon. Couldn’t recommend him more!

Thank you!

Perfect day

Simon (marvellous disco) was brilliant, from the enquiry, his amazing Web page, wedding day count down to the floor fillers we couldn't have asked for more.
I would highly recommend booking Simon for your event, reliable, communicates to ensure the perfect disco.
We had loads of feedback from our guest who loved the disco, didn't want to sit down, danced all night.

Great wedding DJ

We received several quotes for wedding DJs when planning ours and Marvellous Disco was very reasonably priced. We received a very detailed email outlining available services on the day, and were happy to pay our small deposit. This also granted us access to the website where we had our own client portal. As our wedding approached I started browsing the portal and found it incredibly easy to use, and it allowed us to not only list songs we would like to be played, but also those we would not. We were also able to allocate certain songs to certain dances, and provide dedications if we wished. I had a few pre-wedding queries and received detailed responses within 24hrs each time. On the night, Simon introduced himself before starting so that we could put a face to the name, and he did a great job all evening of keeping everyone entertained. The dance floor was full most of the night, and we and our guests all had a fantastic time. We were so pleased that we chose Marvellous Disco to DJ our wedding!

Brilliant DJ

Would thoroughly recommend Simon as a wedding DJ. My wife and I chose him as our DJ wedding and he was brilliant. Allowed us to create a very thorough playlist (and choose any songs we didn’t want to played) - we chose enough for 8 hours of songs! He was great on the DJ, really nice guy and very professional- got setup himself quickly and without drawing attention. Was good with the guests and allowed requests and read the room well - genuinely don’t think the dance floor was empty at any point during the evening. Thoroughly recommend!

Simon Jobson
Simon Jobson
Business Owner and DJ

My journey as a DJ began at 17, as a resident at a nightclub in my hometown of Alnwick, Northumberland. Alongside spinning tracks at various local venues, I also launched my own radio show on community station "Lionheart Radio."

Soon after, I invested in mobile disco equipment and quickly became a highly sought-after presence on the North East scene, playing at some of the region's most exclusive venues.

A few years later, my path evolved. In addition to mobile discos, I took on the management of "Hedfone Party," a silent disco company under the umbrella of Marvellous Festivals. This exciting opportunity led me to relocate from Northumberland to Winnersh, Berkshire, where I focused on orchestrating large-scale silent disco events.

Inspired by the reputation of Marvellous Festivals, I created Marvellous Disco, a mobile disco company serving the home counties, with their kind permission. Over three years, I built a stellar reputation, delighting countless clients at diverse venues and events across the South East.

My career has offered some incredible highlights, including DJing at the Geordie Shore house in Newcastle and for a "gypsy wedding" featured on Channel 4. Beyond the decks, I even had the unique experience of becoming the voice of "Big Brother" for a day, going backstage to chat with housemates via the diary room – a truly amazing experience!

In June 2013, thrilling news arrived: I was going to be a dad! While I cherished my time in the South East, my heart remained in the North. I decided it was best to raise my daughter, Luella (now 11!), closer to family, making those occasional babysitting gigs much easier! For this reason, Marvellous Disco has been thriving back in the North East since 2013.

Since returning, the business has flourished. I have the pleasure of regularly DJing in stunning North East locations such as Alnwick Gardens and Castle, Doxford Hall, Newton Hall, and Ellingham Hall, among many others.

I'm committed to providing an exceptional experience, constantly upgrading my equipment to deliver a fantastic sound and light show. I take immense pride in offering great value to every client.

In 2022, I was thrilled to be nominated for a North of England Wedding award by a grateful couple, and even more delighted to win "Best Wedding DJ" in October of that year! I was also proud to be a finalist in 2023 and I once again won "Best Wedding DJ" for a second time in 2024!
