I was booked by Victoria and Julian to DJ at their wedding at The Olde Bell in Hurley in December. I met up with Victoria at the venue a few months before their wedding day to sit down and discuss timings, our various set ups and music choices.
Victoria explained that she and all her friends are regular visitors to ibiza and not only love the clubs but are really into the music too. This was great news for me! Having been the resident DJ for Hedkandi I was more than happy be the DJ for the evening!!
Victoria and Julian wanted a house style wedding disco with a few classics and requests thrown into the mix.
We decided on the white starlight DJ booth with our giant rustic love letters. this really did make the Malt House look amazing. I used 2 moving head lights with one overhead lighting unit. I always try to go for minimal lighting that sweeps a room rather than tacky red, green and blue dots flashing everywhere!
Victoria and Julian also decided that they didn't want the traditional first dance so instead I announced to guests that the evening disco had started and that all requests were welcome! We kicked things off with the ibiza classic 'Anthem' by N-joi and from there I mixed in more house classics including 'To be In love' by Masters At Work, Spiller by Groovejet & 'Dreamer' by Living Joy. It really was a great party and to get more of a mix of ages onto the dance floor I started to work in some disco classics to the set finishing off with Madness and then Wonderwall by Oasis. This really was a great night to be part of and I am happy that everyone had such a good time!
