My Experience as a DJ at Coltsfoot Country Retreat
I've performed at Coltsfoot Country Retreat many times and know exactly how to make the most of its acoustics, layouts, and vibe - especially within the ceremony and reception spaces, where ambience and lighting play such a huge role.
Whether it's creating a magical moment during your ceremony or keeping the dancefloor buzzing in the reception area, I tailor everything to match the feel of your day.

Exclusive use across 40 acres of Hertfordshire countryside, with 15 boutique suites so your closest guests can stay on site without the venue feeling like a hotel. The Main Barn transforms through the day from ceremony to wedding breakfast to evening celebration, hosting up to 120 for dining and 180 for the evening party. Minimum 70 day guests, easy reach of the A1M and mainline trains to London King's Cross.
What Couples Say
Tony did such a wonderful job for our wedding that 10 years later we booked him again for my wife's 60th birthday. We had a pretty large house party and Tony had the perfect setup that didn't take up much space, packed a punch when and where it was needed. The revolving slideshow of personal photos we uploaded in advance and on the night was a wonderful fun addition. We can highly recommend Tony - he adjusted the vibe perfectly to the ebb and flows of the party and what we needed.
