Hi everyone! I thought it was about time to introduce myself properly!

I’m David Marken, live music and DJ supplier for weddings and events. Born and raised in Belfast and trained at The GSA Conservatoire, I’ve been living and working in London for the past 14 years but will be relocating back to Belfast in a few weeks and can’t wait to get started planning amazing wedding days over here!

Over the years I’ve performed at hundreds of weddings across Europe, countless private events, thousands of hours as a solo entertainer on cruise ships, all over the world, and held long term residencies at hotels in London such as The Dorchester, The Four Seasons and The Savoy.

My live music covers everything from instrumental to solo acoustic/vocal, live looping (think Ed Sheeran style live recording layering to make a full band sound) and upbeat evening party sets, performing live guitar/vocal alongside backing tracks to get your guests dancing! You can make song selections from my repertoire (currently 500+ songs) and I can put together bespoke arrangements of your dream songs for your ceremony and first dance.

My couples are also able to take advantage of my FREE wedding planning spreadsheets, which are incredibly helpful for budgeting, timelines, guest lists, food choices etc. These are included free of charge for any couples that book me for their wedding day.

It’s been a busy week of full dance floors! All different styles at three weddings last week, from one couple who wanted classic Disco, Motown and 80s anthems all night, to another who wanted to create an Ibiza club feel, and even a couple who love Rock and Metal, if you’re looking for varied and energetic live music throughout your day and a full dancefloor for your DJ set, look no further!

Love is the best 😁 Had a great time performing at Chidham Barn for Jodie and Sam. This was supposed to be the “light background” music so you know it was a real party when I started the DJ set!
