Amazing service, Amazing music!
Chris did the disco at our wedding this weekend he was amazing from booking and throughout the day!
Pre wedding he met us at our venue to discuss everything we wanted for our day. We decided to upgrade to an uplighting package and soo glad we did as it looked amazing on the day!
Chris also created a photo slideshow on his screen for us ( our theme was travel so all guests were able to see our travel photos which was a lovely touch).
He came and set up early so everything was ready before the guests got there.
Chris asked us what music we wanted and he played a really good selection, would definitely recommend booking Chris for your wedding day!

Exactly what we wanted!
We didn’t want a Dj but still needed lighting, Chris supplied uplighting and disco lights and it was better than I had expected! Thanks so much!

Absolutely amazing!!
We used chris for our wedding in July and he was amazing! He took song requests from guests during the wedding and happily played them! He created such an amazing atmosphere and got everybody on the dance floor! The set up and lights were incredible and created such a party vibe! We couldn’t have chosen a better DJ for our wedding!

Amazing evening for both wedding and engagement party
Chris was so fantatstic at our engagement party we had to book him for our wedding too! We had to rearange due to COVID lockdowns but Chris was great at being able to swap the dates and we are very grateful for it because everyone had an amazing time!
Before our wedding Chris took the time to sit with me and my now husband and go through songs that that we did and didnt want on the night and the vibe of the evening we were looking for.
The lights, the music, the atmosphere was perfect and more than we could of dreamt of!
I would 1000000% recommend Chris to anyone!

Joint Wedding evening
Chris did our wedding evening and from visiting us, helping us choose our songs, getting our display on his screen to him arriving in good time setting up and being our DJ, he was so professional and smart and had some great ideas on how our evening would go. Our evening doo was shared with my brother and sister-law as they were married 2 days before us so Chris delivered not only our wedding evening but my brothers and so he had their type of music to mix in with ours. Putting the times together with both of our requests. I would recommend Chris for your Wedding evening and any other DJing needs. My recommendation is 100%

Everything we could have asked for and more!
From start to finish, Chris was absolutely amazing. He provides incredible value for money, replied so fast to questions, met with us before the day to ensure we were happy with everything. This was so helpful as he got to know the kind of music we wanted - it also showed how passionate he is about making the evening the best it can be!
All of our guests were so complimentary of the music, the vibe and Chris as a person as he kept the party going perfectly. The dance floor was NEVER empty! My main worry for the evening reception was that people wouldn't feel like dancing before it got dark (especially as we married in late July!).
I needn't have worried because Chris was spot on with judging the vibe of the room and the music that was getting people dancing - he even threw in a conga line to collect the remaining stragglers from outside enjoying the sunny evening to enjoying the dance floor.
He even took loads of photos which we really appreciated looking through during the wait for the professional photos.
Would 10000% recommend and will be using for other events in the future!

Lovely atmosphere
The lighting for our evening was perfect. The orange light chosen made a lovely ambiance to match our autumnal theme. Chris made sure to check with us that we liked the lighting before he left so it was perfect for our day. Lastly, the dance floor lighting went perfect with our spotify playlist no problems. The dance floor was never empty!
