Communion Party

Chris & Luis were absolutely fantastic! We booked them after finding them online for our daughters First Holy Communion party, we knew the event was going to be longer than the usual party, but Chris had no issue with accommodating to the extra time we required. They were both so patient and attentive to my little girl, playing all the song she continued to request, she had an absolutely fantastic day and literally didn’t leave the dance floor all night! Thank you both again! If you’re thinking of booking with Chris, stop thinking and book now, you won’t regret it!

Amazing DJ

From the start Chris was very easy to communicate with and book. Forms really easy to fill out to give an idea of music you want, could have and don’t want. Chris was there from the ceremony till the end of the night playing our ceremony music and getting people up for a dance! Chris also assisted with speeches (use of microphones) and announced our entry!
We also used the LOVE letters Chris supplies which looked amazing

Best wedding dj ever!

We can't thank Chris enough for his DJing at our wedding. He absolutely nailed it. From the song choices, entrainment and his general friendlyness. If anyone is looking to hire a DJ for their wedding, hire Chris. You won't be disappointed. Thank you Chris for everything.

Wedding reception DJ 26.10.2024

We had our evening Reception on 26.10.2024 and Chris was an amazing DJ! He was so responsive leading up to our event, answering any questions or queries we had. He provided so much information.

Chris arrived early to our venue to set up and make sure he was ready for our Guests arrival. He constantly encourages guests to be up on their feet and joining in and makes a big effort with showing off the Bride and Groom.

He played exactly the music we wanted, whilst adding extras in there which worked so well. He was happy to take requests on the night from our guests too.

Highly recommend for your special events!

XRUK corporate event

Chris was so friendly and helpful, even after being thrown in at the deep end at the last minute. Even more important, he had everyone up dancing and was able to read the room and ramp up the music at the right time.

Great atmosphere

Chris was a great dj he catered to exactly what we were after.
He was very friendly and professional and I'd highly recommend him.
We had a few chats on the run up to the big day to talk about things such as timings, music for the wedding breakfast, first dance etc.
Chris was prompt and all set up by the time we got to the reception venue.
He kept the atmosphere alive and read the room well.
Thank you Chris for helping to make out wedding so special.
