When I met Kyer & Ben we discussed what they were looking for and their wedding certainly was the "Spring Countryside" theme they wanted at Chilham Village Hall.

With the BBQ finished I played a few background tracks to liven the mood ahead of the first dance.

We'd discussed their music tastes and the music reflects a lot of their requests.

We had planned in advance to have a false ending as it was expected a few of the guests would want to leave earlier and this is a great way of allowing all the guests to see the "final dance" while continuing the party afterwards with an after party.

Here's the full list of music I played during the evening:

A fabulous wedding at the Silver Country Hotel in , Chloe & Joe's wedding started with a bang and continued through till the end.

I'd chatted with Chloe and Jo a couple of times to discuss the music they wanted to dance at their wedding reception, giving me a good steer on the music choice.

With the first dance completed, they'd chosen the amazing (and a personal favourite of mine) "N-Trance - Set You Free" to kick start their party (and I can't wait to see N-Trance this summer!). Following on from this I had to slip in a few other bangers from the same era before easing back to a few family favourites and wedding classics.

It was a great evening and shows how speaking before hand can make all the difference as I was able to start with the positive bang and keep the party going.

Here's the full playlist from the evening:

Mimi Webb - Freezing
The Kid Laroi & Justin Bieber - Stay

Last weekend I was over near Hawkinge for a marquee wedding. One of the advantages of a marquee on your own land is you get to choose the finish time and we rolled on until past 2am. Been a while since I got home as the sun was rising but totally worth it for a great evening!

Back in August I was at Swarling Manor for Jennie and Greg's wedding. Having chatted with Greg I knew there were certain songs that would be key.

Swarling Manor is set in the Kent countryside on the outskirks of Canterbury.
