NEW FOR 2026 - WE DO BINGO! AN AFTER WEDDING BREAKFAST BINGO RAVE

THE WEDDING INDUSTRY AWARDS REGIONAL 'WEDDING DJ OF THE YEAR 2026 & 2025' ONSET DJ'S - A CONTEMPORARY EXPERIENCE

Tailoring your wedding specifically to you. This isn’t some run-of-the-mill event DJ, your wedding is supposed to be special to you. We work with you and your partner to curate a playlist unique to your relationship, mixed, blended and cut to perfection with certified dance floor fillers to create a once-in-a-lifetime vibe. From Kisstory to Motown, 80’s soul to House, disco to UK Garage, certified pop & rock bangers to dancehall, afrobeat to hip hop, with everything else in between, we cater specifically to your vibe, expertly mixed by a 15-year club & bar veteran of the industry. Whether it's a Saxaphone Wedding for that Sax-House experience or a modern DJ wedding, we have you covered.

BOOK WITH CONFIDENCE

The hardest part about booking the DJ for your Wedding Day is the risk of never seeing the DJ perform before they set up and press play on your first dance.

When you book a DJ, it helps to understand their prestige, the venues they have rocked, and the brands who have booked them so you can book with confidence.

The BEST wedding DJ!!

Well, what can we say, if you’re thinking of booking Jon, don’t hesitate, just do it!
From first enquiring, Jon was quick to respond and this communication carried on right up until the wedding, always keeping in touch. When we booked, we then arranged to meet in person for drinks. During this, Jon really took the time to get to know us as a couple and what was important to us at our wedding. Me and my husband keep saying that it was our favourite part of wedding planning, because Jon made it really easy and fun!
We trusted Jon to play all our favourite music, that would get everyone up dancing and he definitely did that! I genuinely didn’t leave the dance floor the entire night and our guests are still talking about how great he was. His ability to read the dance floor and keep people dancing was brilliant.
My husband and I love Ndubz and wanted a specific song to be played but I said ‘there’s no way that can be played at a wedding and not clear the dance floor, it’ll be a no go’. We mentioned this to Jon a week before the wedding when we were catching up. Jon did infact play that song and somehow made it amazing. It was one of ours, and the guests favourite part of the entire night!
Jon isn’t your stereotypical wedding DJ, the set he played for us was totally tailored to our taste and songs we thought our friends and family would enjoy.
And putting all that aside, Jon is genuinely such a nice person and someone we’re really glad was part of our wedding!
Don’t hesitate to book, highly recommend 🙌🏻

Lottie and Joe’s Wedding.

This man is a musical genius and genuinely added so much magic to our wedding. Jon is so genuine, so passionate and clearly really cares about the experience of every couple that he works with. We feel so blessed to have found Jon. What a joy it has been. We will never forget how much you added to our big day. Thank you so much to the best DJ we know! 🙏❤️ x x

Incredible DJ!

Jon is an absolute pleasure to work with. His communication and determination to tailor the music to you as a couple while making sure the guests are having the time of their lives are second to none.
The dance floor was not empty once during the whole reception (even when food was served).
He is also just a great guy! So easy to get on with and such a great presence.
If you are looking for a DJ at your wedding, I would 100% recommend Jon.

The perfect wedding package!

We wanted something unique and Jon built our perfect package with Dom as our DJ! Both went beyond expectations, getting to know us, our likes and dislikes and organised our playlist perfectly suited to us. This helped make our wedding unforgettable! Dom had everyone on the dance floor dancing the whole night, even a few people who “never dance” were up there having a blast! Can’t thank you both enough for giving us the most fantastic night, everyone had such a great time! Wish we could do it all again! Thank you Jon and Dom!

The best day of our lives!

I don’t know where to begin! Everything was completely seamless when working with Jon. The building of the set list, the first dance ideas, wedding entrance ideas were all second to none. Jon was absolutely perfect throughout the whole process and we would absolutely recommend him for any couple looking for a DJ for their wedding day. He incorporated every request and every idea and was genuinely excited to create our set list with us and play our wedding. We have an eclectic music taste, there’s a bit of everything in there and he somehow managed to capture everything we wanted and more. Best day of our lives and Jon absolutely smashed it. BOOK HIM, YOU WON’T REGRET IT!

The perfect DJ

Jon could not have provided a better service, he was incredible. From the initial interviews getting to know us and building us the perfect playlist for us and our guests, to staying in contact throughout the whole process and getting every detail spot on. We could not have asked for anything more and he absolutely smashed it. We had guests telling us all night how awesome he was, he got everyone dancing all night and made it the perfect evening. Could not rate him any higher and would recommend him to anyone, you can't go wrong.

Great DJ!!

Booking Jon was fantastic—he truly made our wedding reception perfect. He created a tailored playlist featuring all of our favourite songs, then added his own DJ magic to make everything flow seamlessly throughout the night. He got the vibe exactly right and read the room brilliantly, keeping the dance floor full and the party going all evening.

A few months before the wedding, we had a call with Jon to discuss our music tastes, our must-play songs, and the tracks we definitely didn't want. He was incredibly helpful, offering suggestions that complemented our choices perfectly and helped create the ideal soundtrack for our day.

We couldn't have been happier with the experience and would highly recommend Onset DJs to anyone looking for a professional, talented DJ who knows how to make a celebration unforgettable.

Brought the vibes!!!

Booking Onset DJs was one of the best decisions of our wedding planning! Jon was friendly, helpful and such a vibe from Day 1. The initial
Playlist meeting over cocktails was such a nice touch and helped us to get to know Jon before our big day.

Our wedding fell on an exceptionally hot heatwave day but Jon managed to keep our dancefloor full all night with banger after banger! He was also really helpful in recommending several other suppliers including a dancefloor company and an amazing sax player.

Thank you so much Jon! 10/10 would recommend 🙌🏼

Jon is amazing!

We first met Jon when he was recommended to us for our engagement party, he was so good we knew we had to have him for our wedding! We never had any doubts he wouldn’t deliver us the most amazing night!! Thank you so much for all the time and effort and the planning beforehand. Nothing was ever too much trouble. We can’t wait to have another party just to use him again!! ❤️

Need a party, a vibe, an all-round class act professional? Onset have you covered.

Hiring Jon is the best decision we made for our entire wedding. We knew we wanted our wedding to be a big party, a celebration and the dance floor to be popping all night. Jon absolutely made that happen - working with Jon he leads you through his expert process, consults with you on the vibe of your day and helps curate a perfect set from start to finish. There wasn’t a single “lull” on the dancefloor all night, and all our guests were included from our parents to our friends. If I could give 100/10 I would - he just absolutely nailed the brief.

We wanted a mix of classics (think your Earth wind and fire) and new bops (Taylor Swift, Tiny Tempah, cheese room) and everything R&B in between - Jon made this absolutely seamless on the night.

A fair few of our guests said that it was the best dancefloor they’d had at a wedding!

Don’t even consider it, just book with On Set!!!!
Thank you Jon!

Omg wow wow!

Jon was the best DJ ever. From the moment we saw his profile, we knew he was something special and getting to chat with him just confirmed this for us. He was so professional and reliable in the lead up to the day and shown great friendliness and enthusiasm for our playlist choices. We were amazed with how easily he caught our vibe and helped us to bring it to life. He even went as far to reach out to another DJ with more experience in our music genres and brought him along to DJ our wedding. The result of which was an incredible night with endless memories made! We were blown away with how well Jon captured us as a couple and he kept our dance floor active all night. I (the bride) was running on 2 hours sleep and yet I was unable to stay off that dance floor because it was just so good. So many other guests raved to us after about how amazing he was too! We could not be happier. Thank you so much Jon!

The best wedding DJ!!

We booked Jon for our big day and have zero regrets in doing so. We saw that he had already worked with Eve (Music with Eve) who we already had booked so this filled us with confidence they would work well together and it’s safe to say they did the most incredible job. Right from the start Jon’s communication was as amazing! In no time we had a time organised where Jon took us out for drinks to go through our playlist. Jon clearly has lots of experience so was able to give us advice, as well as making our ideas all come together. Jon maintained regular contact, right up until the big day, putting our mind at ease. On the day he was nothing but amazing. He ensured the atmosphere was buzzing all night and the dance floor was never empty. Any footage he captured from the day was sent across to us promptly. We would highly recommend Jon to anyone! Thank you for being such an important part of our big day!

You won’t find better

Where do I even start!?

Jon has been AMAZING from the beginning. He invited us out for cocktails to build our playlist. We met at a local bar and spent the evening chatting about Jon’s background and our taste in music. From there he was able to build a playlist to our taste. We were worried we would have to think of songs but Jon just knew what we would like from our conversation.

Leading up to the wedding Jon checked in with us regularly which settled any concerns about a supplier not turning up!

Jon arrived early on the day, checked in with us about the first dance and got the whole wedding party excited. From there we DID NOT leave the dance floor!

We had comments all evening about how amazing our DJ was and two friends asked for his details. We actually got his details from a wedding we went to where we danced all night!

Jon’s previous experience in the nightclub scene really comes through and he knows how to keep people on that dance floor. On top of that he is a genuinely lovely guy.

You won’t find better.

Best night ever

Jon absolutely smashed our wedding party. He understood what styles we liked and on the evening really picked up the vibes from the guests! He was open to requests and worked with my MOH to mix our first dance song so she could sing. Can’t thank him enough!

Smashed it !

Everything for us was spot on, from all the communication leading up to the wedding to the day as well. For what we paid the show was fantastic, from the quality of sound to the light show, the party/ dance floor was never empty ! We requested a few extra things and John was more than happy to accommodate and help.

Definitely recommend onsetdjs for weddings and parties !
