From party anthems to ambient background music, our DJs can cater to your music tastes and provide a mix of music to suit the evening.
How much does it cost to hire a DJ?
Prices vary depending on your event location and the DJ you choose, but prices generally start from around £500 for the evening inclusive of sound system and lighting.
Local fees are usually based on an evening of entertainment to finish by midnight, but there’s usually the option to extend this for an additional fee.
Many of our DJs are also happy to arrive a little earlier, allowing you to make use of their PA system and mic for speeches and background music during dinner.
What will the DJ need from me?
If you’re looking to book a wedding & party DJ, there are a few things you’ll need to provide for them on the day. Most DJs require the following:
- A simple hot meal (a microwave option is fine)
- Soft drinks/water
- Somewhere to change and leave their belongings
- An electricity supply
- Enough space to meet their minimum requirement (this varies between performers)
- Parking or reimbursed costs
Our DJs all provide their own sound and lighting equipment and come with Public Liability Insurance and PAT-certified equipment.
Can I request songs on the night?
Absolutely! Our wedding DJs are happy to take song requests on the night and before the event.
If you have some favourite tunes or a general steer on what kind of music you like, you can submit a list of songs to your DJ a few weeks before, and they’ll put together a playlist based on your preferences.
Can I hire a DJ alongside a band?
Yes, many of our customers book a DJ to play music whenever the band aren’t on stage. This usually covers early evening music from around 7pm, music between the band’s sets, and music to take guests up until midnight.
Be sure to discuss specific timings with both your DJ and band during the booking stages to ensure they can meet your requirements.
Do you offer DJ Live bands?
One of the current hottest trends emerging on the wedding and party scene are DJ live bands. These hybrid acts consist of both a DJ and live musicians offering a unique live experience that’s certain to entertain. The flexibility of the lineup offers the client a choice of various musicians to perform alongside the DJ.
Options include:
- Singers
- Violinists
- Saxophonists
- Guitarists
- Live Drums

Live DJ bands with musicians are also a great option for wedding venues with sound restrictions, as they can easily work with sound limiters while maintaining excellent sound quality.
