Looking for a Photobooth?
Want something exceptional ?
Check out Mary’s Google review from last Weekend:

I had the photo booth for my 50th recently and the experience from start to finish was amazing! It was such good fun with all the guests commenting on how good the photo booth was and how nice Ashley was. I myself found Ashley very friendly and personable and made the whole experience soo good. Definitely think the photo booth was a great add on brought people together and was busier than the bar 😂😂. Thank you Ashley, highly recommend.

Award winning?
Do you think these awards are credible?
Read on!
I’ve not entered these for years after I realised they are just a money making scam for the organisers!
Anyone can set up an awards company! Did you know that?

So Here We Go... Again!

Well, it looks like I’ve somehow been listed again as a finalist in the Scottish Wedding Awards, courtesy of Creative Oceanic (aka the puddle-dwelling crowd who run these so-called “awards”).

Let’s be clear: these awards have ZERO credibility.

Anyone can vote. Your granny, her dog, your neighbour’s budgie, and yet, finalists don’t even need votes at all. I tested this myself a few years back: one of my businesses received 90 votes, another just 4… and guess which one made it to the finals? Yep, the one with 4.

After calling them out publicly back then, I was blocked from their socials. So imagine my surprise to see my name pop up again as a “finalist” in something I haven’t even engaged with. How that happens, I’ll let you decide.

ITV even investigated Creative Oceanic after countless suppliers were left chasing refunds for cancelled events. It’s a long-running scam dressed up as recognition, and I refuse to be associated with it or any other Vanity Award. Being on the leadership group of the Scottish Wedding Industry Alliance, this is hopefully something we will be actively fighting.

I want to make this very clear, I will never support or promote vanity awards that exist solely to make organisers money off the hard work of genuine businesses.

If you see me shouting about something, it’s because it’s real, honest, and worth celebrating, not because I paid to play.

And yes, I’ll say it plainly: any supplier still pushing or boasting about these “awards” while knowing the truth won’t be recommended by me. Integrity matters.

I’ll keep doing what I do best, creating beautiful work for couples who actually care about authenticity over appearances. I have a moral compass and I know exactly what way it's pointing as do plenty of my wedding supplier colleagues who have posted about these awards and many others out there. You know who you are and I'll always applaude you for speaking the truth.

Couples...these awards are paid for by bums on seats at the 'dinner' and mean nothing. Every year I have to post this and then contact the scammers at Creative Oceanic to get my name removed from their sh*t!

Don’t get me started on the ‘other’ awards.

Have you booked your Christmas party yet?
If you haven’t, I will be DJing at the Atholl Palace in Pitlochry again this year for the first three weekends in December!
Many people say this is the best Christmas party night in Scotland, I would agree!
If you’re fed up with typical Hotel Christmas party nights with average food, poor service and lacking proper decorations etc, then come to the Atholl Palace and experience the ultimate Christmas party night where everything is done properly!

As a DJ, who has worked for over 40 years in many of Scotlands’s top hotels and other venues I can safely say that I believe the Atholl Palace is the best by far!
I’ve had lots of Christmas dinners there and every one has been exceptional! The staff are fun, friendly and efficient and the hotel is stunning and it’s decorated from one end to the other with Christmas decorations!

As soon as you walk in the door, you will feel in the mood to celebrate with your friends, family and work colleagues.

You can opt to stay over in a beautiful room or you can buy just a ticket for the Christmas party night and make your own way home afterwards.
If you are staying over the hotel has a stunning swimming pool, steam room and whirlpool bath and everything else you’d expect in a four-star hotel!

Entertainment is provided by me and I share the night with the Alba Ceilidh band who will get you all up Dancing to some classic ceilidh music

I hope to see you there!
Ashley

What about this for an amazing Christmas party night setup!

13/10/2025

My biggest job I do every year!
In my 16th year of doing this event!

13/10/2025

What will I do differently this year? I’m toying with the idea of bringing 12 moving heads to this years event as well as all the other lighting!
This has been my favourite event every year for the last 16 years! I can’t believe how much it’s evolved since the first one! I love putting on huge shows like this!

Thanks for all the get well soon messages yesterday.
Surgery went well and I’m surprised that this morning I don’t have any pain in my eyes which I was told to expect. It was a bit of a scary moment this morning when I woke up and couldn’t see a thing apart from a blurry light. I had to feel my way to the bathroom and find the bag of cleaning stuff the hospital gave me.
Once I cleaned the mucus and blood off my eyes I could see clearer.
I took the eye patch off the other eye and now I can see enough to read messages and type.
So hopefully from here the swelling will go down and my eyesight will improve. A few days of rest and no lifting for a while.
Got to put anti biotics in my eyes 4 times a day and put ice packs on my eyes 6 times a day to reduce the swelling.
Overall not a bad experience.
Hospital and staff were excellent!
