21st Party in the Kent countryside

This weekend saw me DJing in the lovely Kent Countryside for the 21st Party of a professional golfer. The event run very efficiently by Georgie Lilwall  of Ethereal Events and was set in the grounds of a beautiful country house near Ashford Kent.

Choosing music to play at your wedding reception

  Probably the first decision is not surprisingly, what will be your first dance if you having one. For some couples, the choice is obvious, for others its harder. Maybe a medley of tunes (I have arranged several first dances made up of the combined bride and grooms favourite tunes) or a unique cover version.

Choosing a Wedding DJ

Thoughts on choosing a Wedding DJ. A friend of mine asked me recently what advice I would give to someone looking to hire a wedding DJ. After initially saying tell them to hire me, I started to think about a more constructive answer. The wedding reception is, in most instances, the longest part of the celebrations. So choosing the wrong DJ can have a big impact on the day. So I would suggest to an enquiring couple that the first

Finding that perfect Wedding Venue

There are a lot of resource out there to help you find the perfect wedding venue. In reality though is there such a thing? What you, the bride and groom consider perfect will it be seen as by your wedding guests as such? In my experience, and I have been to a great many weddings, people tend to hire a venue that is too big for their needs. This results in people being spread very thinly around 20 at the

What songs actually work for a Party???

What songs should be played at a Party or Wedding? It really depends on the guests, the more varied the guests the more varied the music, unless the party is themed or the person paying the bill requests a particular style or musical genre to be played all night. Here are some links to some suggestions. Dance-party playlist: 100 greatest songs for an epic party   For a wedding reception: 1. "I Will Survive" - Gloria Gaynor (1975) 2. "Don't

  After DJing at an 80's Party a at the RED LION in Godalming a few months back, I was asked back to DJ for the pubs own 80's night on the evening of the Xmas light switching on.
