​

Popular locations include:

• Winchester

• Portsmouth

• Bournemouth

• Salisbury

• Guildford

• Chichester

• London

• ​

Travel further afield can also be arranged for destination events, luxury celebrations and corporate bookings.

​

Do you offer both DJ and live vocals?

​

Yes — this is one of my signature services.

​

I combine professional DJ sets with powerful live vocals to create a high-energy, immersive entertainment experience. Unlike a standard DJ service, live vocal performances add personality, atmosphere and a true “wow factor” to your event.

​​

I also offer traditional DJ services and solo vocals as well.

​

Options can include:

​

• Ibiza-style dance vocals

• Live dance anthem performances

• Elegant drinks reception vocals

• Classical crossover performances

• First dance live singing

• Corporate party entertainment

• Background lounge vocals

• Party anthems and floor-fillers​​

​

This makes my performances particularly popular for luxury weddings, corporate events and upscale private parties throughout Hampshire and the South Coast.

​

What types of events do you perform at?

​

I provide entertainment for:

​

• Weddings

• Corporate events

• Awards evenings

• Private parties

• Luxury birthdays

• Christmas parties

• Brand events

• Drinks receptions

• Gala dinners

• Charity events

• Festivals and public events

• ​

Whether you’re looking for elegant background music or a packed dance floor atmosphere, performances can be tailored to suit your event style perfectly.

​

Can you perform our first dance live?

​

Absolutely.

​

Many couples choose to have their first dance performed live to create a more emotional and memorable moment. Songs can be performed in their original style or adapted into a more cinematic, acoustic or classical crossover arrangement depending on the atmosphere you’d like to create.

I’m also happy to learn special songs for key moments where possible with sufficient notice.

​

Can we choose the music?

​

Yes — every event is tailored to you.

​

You’re welcome to provide:

​

• Must-play songs

• Favourite artists or genres

• Special requests

• A do-not-play list

• First dance choices

• Cultural or family favourites

• ​

I carefully curate each set around your preferences while also reading the crowd to keep the atmosphere flowing naturally throughout the evening.

​

Do you take guest requests?

​

Yes, guest requests are welcome unless you’d prefer otherwise.

​

I always balance requests carefully with the overall atmosphere and music style of your event to ensure the dance floor stays cohesive and high energy.

​

If there are any songs or genres you definitely do not want played, these can be discussed before the event.

​

How long do you perform for?

​

Performance lengths vary depending on the type of event and package booked.

​

Options may include:

​

• Ceremony music

• Drinks reception entertainment

• Wedding breakfast background vocals

• Evening DJ sets

• Full evening entertainment

• Corporate event entertainment packages

​​

Typical evening wedding DJ performances are up to 5 hours, with full-day wedding entertainment packages also available.

​

Do you provide sound and lighting equipment?

​

Yes — all professional sound and lighting equipment is included within your package unless otherwise stated.

​

This includes:

​

• Professional PA systems

• Wireless microphones

• DJ equipment

• Dance floor lighting

• Elegant setup presentation

• Backup equipment

 

All equipment is PAT tested and fully insured for venue compliance and peace of mind.

​

Are you insured?

​

Yes.

​

I hold Public Liability Insurance (PLI), and all equipment is PAT tested. Most professional venues require this documentation, and certificates can be provided upon request.

​

How does booking work?

To secure your date, a non-refundable booking fee of approximately 25% is required alongside a signed booking agreement.

​

Bookings are managed using dedicated event booking software, making the process simple and professional from start to finish. This allows you to:

​

• Secure your date online

• Review your booking details

• Complete payments securely

• Submit music preferences

• Access event information easily​

​

Your remaining balance is typically due closer to the event date.

​

Why is a booking fee required?

​

Your booking fee secures your event date exclusively in the diary.

​

Once a booking is confirmed, that date becomes unavailable for other enquiries. The booking fee also covers preparation time, administration, music planning and event coordination leading up to your celebration.

​

How far in advance should we book?

​

Popular wedding dates — especially Saturdays during spring and summer — can book up well in advance.

​

For weddings and corporate events, booking 6–18 months ahead is recommended where possible.

However, last-minute bookings are occasionally available depending on diary availability.

​

What happens if equipment fails?

​

Professional backup equipment is carried wherever possible to minimise disruption in the unlikely event of technical issues.

​

Reliability and professionalism are extremely important, particularly for weddings and corporate events, so contingency planning is always part of the preparation process.

​

What makes your service different from a standard DJ?

​

My performances combine the energy of a live performer with the versatility of a professional DJ.

As a professionally trained vocalist with extensive live performance experience, I offer a far more interactive and personalised entertainment experience than a playlist-only DJ service.

​

This unique combination works particularly well for:

​

• Luxury weddings

• Corporate events

• High-end private parties

• Brand experiences

• Elegant evening reception

​

Live vocals create memorable moments while keeping the atmosphere dynamic and engaging throughout the event.

​

Do you provide wedding ceremony music?

​

Yes.

​

Live vocals can be provided for:

• Guest arrival

• Bridal entrance

• Signing of the register

• Exit songs

• Drinks receptions​

​

Music choices can range from contemporary love songs and acoustic arrangements to musical theatre and classical crossover repertoire.

​

Can you provide entertainment for corporate events?

​

Absolutely.

​

Corporate entertainment can be tailored for:

• Awards ceremonies

• Networking events

• Product launches

• Christmas parties

• Staff celebrations

• Luxury client events

• Brand activations

​

A polished, professional presentation is always prioritised, with music tailored carefully to suit your audience and brand atmosphere.

​

How much does a wedding DJ cost in Hampshire?

​

Wedding DJ pricing in Hampshire can vary depending on:

• Event duration

• Travel requirements

• Lighting setup

• Guest numbers

• Live vocal add-ons

• Full-day coverage requirements​

​

My packages are designed for couples and clients looking for a premium entertainment experience with professional presentation, live performance quality and personalised music planning.

Do you perform at venues with sound limiters?

​

Yes — many modern wedding venues operate sound limiters.

​

I’m experienced in working professionally within venue sound restrictions while still maintaining an enjoyable atmosphere and quality audio experience for guests.

​

Can you work alongside other musicians or suppliers?

​

Absolutely.

​

I regularly collaborate with:

• Saxophonists

• Violinists

• Wedding planners

• Venues

• Photographers

• Videographers

• Production teams​

​

Creating a seamless experience with your wider supplier team is always a priority.

• Event type

• Estimated guest numbers
