The experience

Daytime hosting

  • Ceremony music precisely cued
  • Drinks reception soundtrack
  • Warm announcements that keep things moving
  • Wedding party introductions that break the ice and unite both families
  • Your Love Story, tastefully told during dinner
  • Pearls of Wisdom cards on tables
  • PA and wireless mics for speeches, with quick support for nervous speakers

Evening celebration

  • Crowd-reading, live-mixed sets across decades and genres
  • Uplighting to elevate the room
  • Optional interactive moments you approve, such as Mr & Mrs or a short DJ Battle
  • First-dance edit or remix so the moment feels perfect

Tailored for introverts and extroverts

I personalise every service to you. If you love a bit of fanfare we will lean into it. If you prefer to keep the spotlight soft, I will adjust the format so the fun stays high and the pressure stays low.

  • Wedding party introductions can be upbeat or gently understated
  • Love Story can be a short nod or a mini feature
  • Mr & Mrs can be a quick seated version, questions pre-approved
  • Announcements kept warm and brief, unless you want a bigger moment

The point is simple. You feel like yourselves, your guests feel involved, and the room connects naturally.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between a DJ and a professional MC?

I handle the flow as well as the soundtrack. A professional MC welcomes guests, steers the timeline, introduces key moments and keeps the energy right between them.

Can you guarantee the exact version of our first dance?

Yes. I source and test the exact version you want and hold verified backups, so there are no surprises when you step onto the floor.

Can we choose the music?

Yes. You get a simple five-list system, must-plays, play if it fits, dedications, do-not-plays, and vibes you love. I read the room on the night so the energy never dips.

We prefer low-key hosting. Is that OK?

Absolutely. Hosting can be warm and unobtrusive with minimal mic time. You set the tone and I follow it.

Do you provide sound for speeches?

Yes. Discreet PA and quality wireless mics. I also give quick coaching so speakers feel confident and are heard clearly.

Can you work with a band?

Yes. I coordinate handovers and keep the atmosphere between sets so momentum is not lost.

What happens if timings change?

I adapt on the day and keep suppliers aligned so you are not stressed.

We are introverts. Can you keep us out of the spotlight?

Yes. I set the spotlight level to what suits you. For example, I can deliver Mr & Mrs as a short seated version with hand-picked questions, keep announcements warm and brief, and use subtle ice-breakers that get people chatting without calling you forward.

How much can we personalise the interactive bits?

Everything can be tailored. I write Love Story and introductions using your words, I match the tone you like, and I adjust or skip any element you do not want. It is not a sales line. It is genuinely how I work with every couple.

Why are your prices higher than some DJs?

Because the outcome is different. You are hiring planning expertise, professional hosting and club-level programming. Without meaning to sound like I am bragging, I am in the top five percent of wedding DJs in the UK, judged by experience, client outcomes and breadth of service.
