The best in the business!



We had the absolute pleasure of having The Boombox as our wedding DJ, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience! From the moment we first contacted Bruno he was professional, responsive, and enthusiastic about making our day special. He listened to our preferences, understood the vibe we wanted, and crafted the perfect playlist that kept the energy high all night.

During the reception, they seamlessly read the crowd, blending our favorite songs with requests, and making sure everyone—from our older guests to our friends—was on the dance floor. The transitions between songs were flawless, and the lighting they provided really added to the ambiance.

Several of our guests commented on how amazing the music was, and we couldn’t agree more. If you’re looking for a DJ who will keep the party going and create unforgettable memories, we highly recommend The Boombox

Great DJ for Reception

Boombox came recommended to us by our wedding photographer, and we were thrilled when we learnt that they had availability for our wedding reception.

We had a Zoom call with Bruno, who was our wedding DJ. Bruno was so lovely to talk to and clearly both passionate and experienced. Bruno didn’t ask much of us, just our first and last dance, a list of songs to give a sense of the sort of music that we would want (which he would use as a reference point), and (even better!) a ‘Do Not Play’ list.

Bruno really energised our wedding reception, and I was genuinely surprised at some of the people that he managed to get up and dancing! Thank you Bruno for helping us keep the energy going through to the end of our wedding day.
