Tom & Carrie, 27th October 2022: The Ashes Barns Wedding Venue & Country House Accommodation
Wonderful photography by: Nikki Cooper Photography

Lovely words from Tom & Carrie whose evening reception was fab not least because it featured Carrie’s classic Mini (we’re big fans of Mini’s) and lots of great music that was a pleasure to play. Our couples have the best taste in music…fact.

“Hi Karl and Kate, Just want to say a huge thank you for being part of our big day. Everyone complimented what a fantastic DJ you both are. With music being so close to our hearts it was so nice and easy to have you on the decks for requests and keeping the party going. Apologies for our singing, I’d like to say we were tone deaf that night, but it’s a recurring thing now!

Thanks again for all your efforts and communication over the years.

Tom and Carrie (Mr and Mrs Brown)”

Lovely words from Sarah & Tom whose evening reception was an incredible cauldron of fun in the basement at Sidney And Matilda.

“Karl and Kate,

What can we say?!
You were absolutely amazing on Saturday!
Everyone has been raving about you and they said it was the best party they’ve ever been to.
Martha and Felix had a ball too, they’ve never danced outside of our kitchen before so it was extra special for them, especially as you played some of their favourite songs!
You really made it a night we will never forget!

Thanks so much!”

The Lancaster Canal is literally at the bottom of our garden so we were excited to DJ at Kirsty & Adam’s wedding at Standedge Tunnel Visitor centre which next to the Huddersfield Narrow Canal. We had a wonderful day in this beautiful setting playing music for a couple that absolutely love their music.

Zoe & Jon: 19th February 2023 The Normans

We received a lovely thank you card from Zoe & Jon whose evening reception was incredible. Always great to hear good things about the music we play but it’s wonderful to read that our professionalism in the planning stages helps couples in what can be a very stressful time
Wonderful photography by http://www.mandgweddingphotography.co.uk

Thank you so much for making our day so special. Our guests keep telling us how they never danced so much at a wedding before, and our sore feet the next day suggested they were right! You kept the floor filled all night with an epic selection of bangers and it was the perfect blend to keep guests of all ages partying all night long.

Special thank you to you both again for the kindness and support in all the planning,

Love from Zoe and Jon x

Today we received a request list that could have been a playlist from one of our own kitchen discos and it has this track on it - one of my (Karl) favourite songs from one of my favourite albums.

Have a great bank holiday.

This time last week we were getting into the spirit of things at Kendal Calling.
It was our 14th time playing at the festival and it was a cracker.

We closed the festival on the Calling Out stage doing our annual INDIE DISCO from 11pm - 3am.

We hope to be back next year to make it 15 years in a row.

10/07/2022

So excited for our return to Kendal Calling for the 15th time.
We're closing the festival on the Sunday in the big Calling Out tent - 11pm til 3am doing the INDIE DISCO.

Spiritually, I'm already in that tent belting out Mr Brightside 🔥

We love receiving thank you emails and this one landed before we'd even got out of bed the morning after the wedding.
Jackie & Andy's requests were brilliant, they requested this absolute disco banger as the last tune of the evening.

What a way to bring your wedding day to a close...

"Hi Karl & Kate,

So nice to meet you both and a huge huge thank you from Andy and I for the music.

Everyone that attended our wedding said how brilliant it was and that it was the best wedding ever because the music was incredible.

Music is such a huge part of our lives, and as you saw last night, our families love to dance, so Andy and I want to say a massive thank you for keeping the dancefloor full! It was incredible and I will be recommending you guys to everyone!!!

Jackie and Andy"

What can we say about last Saturdays wedding at Manchester Art Gallery? There are no superlatives good enough so just check out these fab photos by Autumn Stone Photography.
I honestly don’t think I’ve ever seen a busier dance floor which is testament to Jacky & Andrew’s ace requests.

Mark & Steph - 29th May 2021, Yeldersley Hall.

We’re really chuffed to have received this lovely ‘thank you’ card from Mark & Steph. We love it when couples write to us and these words, not only about the night we DJ but about us as a business really mean a lot.

“We wanted to say a huge thank you to you both for everything you did for us along the journey to our wedding day.
You were a pleasure to work with throughout, from the moment we first spoke to you, in what were incredibly challenging circumstances for suppliers and couples alike.
It was the best decision we made to go ahead with you as a DJ; the background music really elevated our reception and created a fantastic atmosphere, bounce & positive energy. We really loved the way you blended some of original disco requests with the softer, more intimate tunes we asked for; (it was a fantastic mix).
The Oasis & Beatles mash up turned out to be a dream too :-)
.
Wishing you both all the best for the future - you are both amazing people and it was a privilege to have you play an integral part in our wedding”.

Big ❤️ Mark & Steph.

The next in our series of amazing dance floor photos taken by the block-rockin’ photographers that we work with.

Capturing the dance floor action is so important to us and we love it when a photographer stays after the first dance and documents the mayhem.

Neil & Natasha’s wedding on 8th September 2018 at was a blast. Neil is quite the music obsessive and this made their requests an absolute joy to play. Any groom who wants to hear George Michael is good with us.
Incredible photography by who captured the dance floor perfectly.

Hannah & Nick’s wedding in August 2019 at .court Hereford was fab. Hannah’s family are quite the extroverts - something you might expect seeing as her father is legendary musician, producer, artist and all-round polymath Brian Eno so the dancing was an incredible & joyous sight.

Colourful, Informal & Eclectic Summer Wedding

Great to see our couple Hannah & Nick featured in Rock 'n Roll Bride.
Check out the Bowie inspired dress by our best pal Jo at The Couture Company Designer wedding gowns and the amazing Alan Partridge styled wedding cake.

Hannah and Nick chose Dewsall Court in Hereford for their summer 2019 wedding. They wanted an eclectic and colourful day and when they visited the venue and found out they had a canopy already set up outside that they could have their ceremony under, they were sold!

Kate and I would like to send a quick message to all of our current couples/bookings.

Firstly, we are doing everything we can to continue working with our current bookings. You are the reason we do this and we have put some measures in place, especially around postponements and moving dates should you need to. Please get in touch.

This is gonna take all of us pulling together but if we do, we'll be on that dance floor with you soon.

All our love and support - Karl, Kate and Claudia Jean (the cat).

Thank you so much for DJ'ing our wedding!

They were super accommodating of our music taste and were able to effortlessly blend our music with our guest's requests! Couldn't recommend them enough, thank you for providing the backing track to the best day of our lives!!!!!
