PLEASE NOTE: AS FROM SEPTEMBER 2023 I NO LONGER PROVIDE A DJ SERVICE, THOUGH CAN RECOMMEND DJS TO MY CLIENTS

I'm fortunate to have the best job in the world, working with my couples to help you have the Best Wedding Ever!!!

As a Master of Ceremonies and Wedding Host I get to know my couples, their personalities and sense of humour so that I can help present a day which truly reflects their personalities. Using music, humour and my friendly, supportive personality to ensure that all guests are involved and join in, and giving my couples the time and space to enjoy their day knowing that someone is there to deal with whatever comes up.

I work with your venue team and other suppliers to help ensure your day runs smoothly

I can provide professionally presented music for your Ceremony, Drinks Reception and Wedding Breakfast

In addition to these I bring numerous ways to personalise your day, entertain your guests and am so convinced of the quality of my work and its value that I offer a money back guarantee

I can provide beautiful Uplighting to lift the atmosphere in your chosen venue and make it look even more amazing!

And I can also provide custom designed static or animated wedding monograms for that ultimate touch of personalisation.

What do my Couples say?

Colin is a total professional and listened to what we as the Bride and Groom wanted our wedding to feel like, and his vast experience helped us achieve exactly what we wanted

Hi Colin,

Just sending a quick email to thank you for everything you did for myself and Abbie at our Wedding and in preparation for it. We had an amazing day, and have you to thank for a lot of it.

From the first time we spoke at a Wedding Event, you provided me with all the information I needed, but more importantly took away any nerves or concerns I had when looking for this particular service. As you found out, I was worried about the thought of having some “Disco DJ” mumbling on the microphone, playing party Songs from when I was 3 Years old, with a huge scaffold lighting rig, but you instantly set my mind at rest with your advice, demonstrations and what you had to offer, which was perfect. Your set up was perfect for my preference and especially for the venue, where finding space in the tepee could have been difficult.

Having you there with us for the day, to us was a great advantage as it gave extra impact to the beautiful ceremony and gave us more comfort in knowing that there was another person there watching over us to make our day as smooth as possible, which it did for us in every way.

Your personal touches were fantastic, from the personal introduction to the Mr & Mrs Game (which got superb feedback from everyone) and also the last minute thought on the day to make the cake cutting a little bit more special after taking it upon yourself in finding out that it was my Auntie that made the Cake.

Let it be known to anyone that myself and Abbie could not recommend you and your services any higher. It’s not just about the Music, there is so much more to it which led to us having a Wedding Day we will never forget and we can’t thank you enough.

Colin - you were the last minute booking we didn't know we 100% needed. I will forever be grateful for the recommendation to book you as you elevated our day to another level and so many guests commented on the difference you made and the personal touches you added that most people had never seen before. I will never stop singing your praises and telling every bride I ever meet how much they need to book you. Your intro, pearls of wisdom, organisation and Mrs & Mrs game really set our day apart. So many people complimented your work and presence. Thank you so much.

If you are looking for a fun, relaxed and unique wedding then please get in touch. My normal geographical area is the North East - Durham, Northumberland, Tyne & Wear, Teesside, or North Yorkshire but I am regularly asked to travel further afield.

olin is amazing!

Colin was our Master of Ceremonies and DJ for the day/night. He has an amazing personality and a great sense of humor. He kept everything nice and organised throughout the day so I didnt need to worry and could just enjoy myself with my new Husband! He was in contact regularly from the day we contacted him which was great and helped guide us through the whole process. Brilliant gentleman and would highly recommend.
