So grateful to have had Press Record Live, DJ at our wedding

Press Record Live were a pleasure to work with, from start to finish, curating the perfect set from our song choices that kept the dance floor filled all night. The rustic DJ set up looked just the part in our tipi too.

A huge shout out to Matt for accommodating the groom's last minute requests to sneak in those hospital radio jingles from the bride's teenage years - it was hilarious and such a great surprise.

We’re so pleased we found Press Record Live, and not only because we got a top class DJ at our wedding, but they also manage Soul Gravy, who were insanely good. They made a great team, were thoroughly lovely folks, and created a vibe that was perfect for us and our family. Highly highly recommend!

Great music, everyone enjoyed the songs throughout the night. Fab atmosphere created!

Put 4 stars because at our first dance the DJ started to play the wrong song and then at the end of the night the DJ was complaining about the venue to me and my husband - not our fault they hadn't played theyre before and not really something we cared about on our wedding day. Other than these 2 things the music was great and everyone was up dancing. Would still recommend!

Fantastic DJ and set

Matt and Natalie were on point with their service, very friendly and flexible with their service, me and my husband planned every single song ranging from 70s/80s/90s/00s and asked for a “metal hour” at the end to indulge in our favourite genre. Matt organised the music perfectly throughout the night and it was a huge bonus to know he had similar music taste to us, the strobe light was very fitting towards the end! All our guests loved the music and had a blast. Thank you both for giving us a night to remember! Highly recommend!

The G.o.a.t 🙌🏻

We are so grateful to Press Record Live for helping make our wedding night unforgettable. Matt was absolutely wonderful — he kept the atmosphere electric from start to finish and read the room perfectly.

He worked seamlessly with our other suppliers, making everything feel effortless on the day. As a true one-man band, he set up everything himself and handled so many different elements without a hitch.

The music choices and DJ set were incredible, keeping everyone on the dance floor all night. And the cold sparks were stunning — they added such a magical touch to an already fantastic setup.

Thank you, Matt, for bringing our night to life. We couldn’t have asked for a better DJ!

The star of the night!!!

Matt from 'Press Rec Live' was absolutely phenomenal.
Our wedding simply wouldn’t have been the same without him. From the moment he arrived, Matt was warm, welcoming, and the consummate professional. He tailored his setup to our needs and consistently exceeded expectations throughout the evening.

Once the party kicked off, there was no stopping him, he curated the perfect playlist with precision and flair. Matt isn’t just a brilliant DJ; he truly understands the emotional connection between people and music. His intuitive song choices had even our most reluctant guests up and dancing, effortlessly creating an atmosphere of joy and celebration.

If you're looking for a DJ who can elevate your event and bring people together through music, look no further. Matt has you covered.

Feet ache from dancing all night

Matt DJ-ed our wedding on 11.10.25 in York.

From the very first consultation call, through to the day, Matt was an absolute pleasure to work with. The app made it incredibly easy to select songs we wanted (and ones we didn't!) and Matt understood the vibe we were looking for immediately.

On the day, he arrived promptly and liaised with the venue directly to avoid us becoming the middle people, making it all very easy and stress free. He mixed songs expertly, kept the dance floor full and energised all night, banger after banger. He timed it all perfectly and had everyone chanting for one more song.

The set up was brilliant - the lights added so much atmosphere to the dancefloor as well.

It truly made the celebration - we all had the best time.

Perfect DJ for our wedding

Natalie and Ben were so friendly and helpful when we were planning the music for our reception. The vrbo app they sent us was really useful for putting our song requests on for different stages of the night. They’re great value for money, we went with the classic package which was perfect for us.
Ben was amazing at reading the room and adapting the music to suit, our dance floor was busy all night thanks to him. And he kept us in the loop with regards to timings when our night do started later than planned.
We’d highly recommend them!

100% reccomend!

Press record live were absolutely incredible at our wedding. They are so so approachable, understandable, accommodating, and so easy to get along with. Hands down the coolest people ever. My wedding wouldn’t have been half as good as it was without them. We used their rustic package and hired them for the whole day, fantastic value for money and I’d recommend them to anyone. Thank you for the best day ever ❤️

Such a fantastic night!

We cannot say a big enough thank you for the most amazing wedding reception - the music was incredible, the atmosphere was fantastic and you made the whole event.
You absolutely read the room and it was exactly what we wanted - even though we didn’t know what we wanted! We can’t stop watching the videos of everyone having the most amazing time. We were worried people wouldn’t dance…how wrong we were! Even though our reception was small in numbers the atmosphere was incredible and the dance floor was full the whole night. We couldn’t have asked for more and everyone commented on what a fantastic DJ we had and how amazing the evening was. You really did make the day. Thank you!

Matt Made Our Day Unforgettable

Booking Matt from Press Record Live for our wedding at Wyresdale Park was one of the best decisions we made. From the very first chat he was warm, friendly and professional and really took the time to understand the kind of music and atmosphere we wanted for the day. It immediately made us feel confident that he would get it just right.

On the day, Matt was brilliant. He read the room perfectly, keeping everyone from our youngest guests to our oldest dancing all evening. Guests kept commenting on how smoothly the music flowed with no awkward transitions or sudden songs that cleared the floor as you can sometimes have. The playlist was a great mix of our favourites and classic hits and everything from announcements to special dances ran seamlessly. The rustic DJ booth fitted in beautifully with the style of our venue, adding to the overall look and feel of the day.

Matt was also incredibly easy to work with. Friendly, calm, and flexible he took away any stress about the music and made everything feel effortless. So many guests commented on how much they enjoyed the music and we couldn’t agree more. If you want a DJ who’s skilled, approachable and knows how to keep everyone dancing Matt with Press Record Live is the one.
