✪ Most Frequently Asked Questions ✪



How much do you charge?



Each event is unique and the fee varies depending on several factors including package, venue location, date, access to venue and how much equipment is required so every quote is accurate to your event. Get intouch for a bespoke, accurate quote.




Do you provide all equipment?



Yes, I have a wide range of high end touring grade sound and computer controlled lighting systems to suit any venue size.


I also have custom ceremony and meal setups which ensure your guests hear every word plus your ceremony and speeches can even be recorded.


There is also a host of cool stage effects like cold spark indoor fireworks, Confetti Cannons and CO2 guns.



Have you played at my venue before?



Very likely. I have been DJing at Weddings, events and parties for a long time and have performed at thousands of events so there is a good chance i have been at your venue and may even have some footage from there. The venue page lists some I have worked at.



Do you provide a contract? Do you need a retainer payment?



All bookings are secured with a signed contract and initial payment to confirm your date. No date is reserved until both of those are received. Contracts are sent online for digital signature and payments can be made by BACS, Paypal, Card or Cheque so the booking process is quick and simple. The balance is due between 28 days prior to your event.



Can we come and see you play or have a chat before we book?



I love chatting with couples and answering any questions before they book. Infact I highly recommend this step. Meetings can take place over the phone, online or in person.

Unfortunately as all my events are private I cannot invite prospective clients to come and see me. At any event, I am 100% focused on giving my couples and their guests the best night possible in the moment. There is lot's of performance footage available on the socials.



What music do you play? can we choose music? Do you take requests? Can you properly DJ?



I play a massive range of music and it can change entirely from one night to the next depending on the crowd. I am more than happy to take requests before any event , infact anyone how books receives a planner to allow them to submit requests beforehand.

The music I play on any given night consists of requests given by the booker before hand, requests on the evening and my experience in reading the crowd and knowing what guests will respond to.

I can mix/DJ to a high level and don't just play one track after another like an autoplay. I worked as a professional guitarist for many years so interpreting music and crowd reaction comes second nature to me and I like to take audiences on a journey where everyone is in sync and there is constantly musical and transitional surprises thrown in to keep your guests entertained and guessing.



Can you pencil a date in for us?



Due to the volume of enquiries received unfortunately dates can only be reserved upon receipt of your signed contract and retainer payment.



What happens if you are ill/cancel?



In the extremely unlikely event that I cannot fulfil a booking I have a network of other highly experienced and rated DJs who can step in. All eventualities are covered and prepared for.



How do we book?



Get intouch via email, social media or call and I can get the ball rolling. I require just a few pieces of information to draw up your electronic contract which will be sent through to your email address.



How long do you take to setup?
When will you arrive?



Setup takes 30-45 mins on average from when I gain access to the setup area. This may be slightly longer if you book additional enhancements.



Do you have PLI and PAT?



Yes, I carry £10,000,000 Public Liability Insurance coverage and equipment is regularly PAT tested to ensure safety.



Have you worked with anyone famous/will you sign an NDA?



Yes, over the years I've entertained and worked with a number of celebrities ranging from J.K. Rowling, George Bowie, Alexander Armstrong, Jason Manford, the Still Game Cast, the Mrs Browns Boys cast plus a host of TV stars, Musicians, Politicians and Sports personalities to name a few.


If required, I am happy to sign an NDA.



Is there anything you can do to give our night the WOW factor?



I am all about elevating your special day and this can be done with special highlight moments, live sax/percussion sets or the range of enhancements.
