Can we choose the music?
Yes, and you can choose what I don’t play. You get a must-play list and a do-not-play list, and I take the second one as seriously as the first. All I’d ask is that you leave me some room to read the floor on the night — the best moments at a wedding are usually the ones nobody planned.
How far in advance should we book?
Most couples book me 9–14 months out, and Saturdays between May and September go first. If your date is inside six months it’s still worth asking — I keep a small number of dates back.
Are you insured, and will our venue need paperwork?
Yes — £5m public liability cover and PAT-tested equipment. I send the certificates straight to your venue as soon as you book, so it’s one less thing you have to chase.
Do you cover the ceremony?
No — I start at the wedding breakfast. Ceremony music is usually best handled by your venue or a musician, and I’d rather do two parts of the day brilliantly than three of them adequately. I’m happy to point you at people I trust, and I’ll coordinate with them so the day joins up.
What if the two of us like completely different music?
That’s most couples — it’s the job. We’ll build a night that moves through both, and your guests will never notice the joins.
Do you MC as well, or just DJ?
Both, on the Signature Wedding Host & DJ package. Speeches, cake, first dance, and the announcements that keep a day moving. Thirty years means I can do it without sounding like a game show.
