“Alastair thank you so much for being part of our day. You can see your experience completely shine through — especially with such a challenge of Nepali, Arabic and English songs, you somehow weaved it all together. Can’t recommend this guy enough!” — Wedding, Lartington Hall
Full Day or Evening — Your Choice
Unlike some DJs who only cover the evening disco, I offer full day packages that take care of everything. Ceremony music, drinks reception background tracks, dining music, speeches, first dance, and a full evening disco — one supplier coordinating your entire day, with no handover stress and no wondering who’s turning up next.
My packages start at £350 for an evening disco, with full day and ultimate all-day packages available. View all packages here.
