Testimonials

Dear Colin & Becky
Thank you so much for everything you have done to make our wedding day so special. We truly appreciate everything you did!From taking time to understand what we wanted, getting in touch with other vendors, researching everything for the monogram (which looked amazing), to setting up the lighting for the room and band and doing our personalised introduction and the DJing, it all came together brilliantly!Craig and Caroline

Dear Colin, Tim and I would like to thank you so much for the wonderful DJing you did at our wedding on 4th August. You were so absolutely professional throughout and allowed us to have the disco we really wanted. Thanks for playing our songs, ignoring the guests requests for rubbish (!) and keeping the volume where we wanted it. The whole event for us was obviously very special but what made it better was the compliments we received, many of which were directed at you. They all seemed to have had an absolutely brilliant time and we were therefore extremely happy with it all. We would be more than happy to write feedback on your website if you would like this. Once again, many many thanks for your excellent service!Tabby and Tim, Wedding at St Chads College, Durham

Dear Colin,We would like to say a very big thank you for providing us with a perfect evening reception at Eshott Hall on Thursday 16th August. Your advice, professionalism, personal touches and eagerness to accommodate our ideas provided us with a really enjoyable and smoothly run evening. Our guests commented on the fantastic selection of music played during the wedding breakfast and in particular the range played during the evening reception. Most guests were up on the dance floor at some point or other, most of them for at least a little while, and Uncle Ray (rarely goes near the dance floor) barely sat down all night! We can’t thank you enough for providing us with such an excellent service and contributing so much towards our special day. Your expertise and advice beforehand was especially appreciated. The atmosphere you created was perfectly measured for our venue and tastes and was exactly what we were looking for. Yours, a happy couple,Glyn and Claire Hicks. Wedding at Eshott Hall

Dear ColinJust a quick note to say thank you for all your hard work and everything you did to make our big day so special.From the outset, you were so helpful and easy to work with, answering our many questions and being willing to go above and beyond to make sure our day was perfect.And perfect it was! The Great Hall looked absolutely amazing with the Uplighting, the music was just spot on (even our ‘favourite songs’!) and you were a fabulous Master of Ceremonies , with your quick thinking keeping our day alive and on track! We really couldn’t have done it without you and had the best day ever – thank you! We have had a lot of comments from guests about how great (and unobtrusive!) you were too. Although it was a long day for you, we hope you had fun too!Thanks again,The New Mr & Mrs Booth xxxWedding Durham Castle 2015

In asking Colin to help with our wedding planning during 2016, he gave us so much helpful advice on how we could develop the format of our day and use a range of music choices, and his master of ceremony skills and personality, to enhance and make each part really memorable.Colin’s contribution helped us be more confident in planning the wedding ‘our way’ to ensure it really was as personal as it could be, involving humour, nostalgia and so many personal touches throughout our day that it ended up feeling totally perfect. We wanted to have, what we described when we met as an ‘informal but formal’ feel which would use the best of Crook Hall and its beautiful gardens during the day and ensure we had a cracking party in the evening. We did just that aided by some glorious sunshine!Leading up to the wedding Colin helped us develop and deliver a fantastic play list and on the day managed our music so professionally inside and outside the hall as well as providing a Master of Ceremonies role.I had not appreciated how much Colin was going to help ‘glue’ the different parts of our day together in his Master of Ceremonies role – His contribution made a huge difference to the flow of the day from chatting to guests on arrival, helping with our amazing marryoke, doing a personal introduction about us to our guests ahead of dinner, reading out comments on our postcards, dealing with the cake cutting, filming and capturing additional photos after the photographer had gone and even ensuring our dressing up box got maximum usage at the evening party – alongside effortlessly delivering the music – this left us with very little to think or worry about, so we enjoyed every minute of our day.Colin is a total professional and listened to what we as the Bride and Groom wanted our wedding to feel like, and his vast experience helped us achieve exactly what we wanted.He is professional, approachable and from our experience went the extra mile to help ensure our wedding felt unique – I would highly recommend Colin on both music and his master of ceremonies role.Thank you so much Colin Zoey & Kieron XX

Hi ColinCraig and I just wanted to say a huge thank you to Colin for our wedding night disco. Your professionalism and dedication to ensuring our night ran perfectly was there for all to see, having Colin as our DJ meant that we didn’t require any other entertainment on the night. My guests all commented that the music played was excellent and there wasn’t a moment when the dancefloor was empty.Colin also provides a service called Moodlighting, I would recommend that no matter what venue you have (our wedding was at Wynyard) use this service that Colin provides. The lighting changes the room into a magical place.I was looking at other comments from other happy customers of Colin and one thing I would reiterate is, you will find these services elsewhere, but if you want perfection, a gentleman that really cares about making your day special and someone who is happy to give advice but is also flexible in his approach, Colin is your guy!!Thank you so much again, ColinWith warmest regards and respectJustine and Craig Marshall, Wedding at Wynyard Hall

Hi Colin,Hope you are well?Just a quick note to say HUGE THANKS to you for being DJ and master of ceremonies for our wedding. Despite the biblical rain, we had a wonderful time and it actually only served to make things more intimate for us and our guests huddled in the bar and treehouse.I was blissfully unaware as to the very last minute “where will the ceremony be” dramas and understand from Andy and best man John that it was literally with minutes to go you re-set up and had everything good to go. I really can’t tell you enough how great you’ve been to work with, how great we felt your music choices were when we’d really just given a general idea for you and how fantastic a job you did motivating so many guests up on to the dance floor considering they’d all eaten such a big meal fairly late into things. The “I like big butts” was a particularly special touch and Kenn and Sheila managed to get a cracking shot of Andy all gorilla masked up with banana!I’m more than happy to share Facebook pages, or provide a testimonial etc. as to just how thrilled we were. Do let me know.Thank youLaura and Andy Wedding – Alnwick Gardens Treehouse Restaurant

Colin,So sorry im late in sending this. Just want to say a HUGE thank you to you both for making our wedding night unforgettable. The music was just amazing. Everybody loved it. What made mine and Johnnys night was the fact the dancefloor was never empty. You’re a brilliant DJ. Highly recommended.Thanks again Colin.Stacey and Johnny x

Hi Colin, Thanks for the photos, they’re great!We were both so pleased with your services throughout the day. You hear stories about the stereotypical “wedding DJ” so we were wary at first to even have a DJ. We found you to be professional and obviously very good at what you do.The music was spot-on all night and was exactly what we wanted, you tailored it perfectly!The information and correspondence before the event was very useful, particularly in getting us to think about what we did and did not want played. We particularly liked the way you ended the night with the circle and the final song. Its a really great idea!The mood lighting looked great and really added to the atmosphere in the marquee.Also the way you handled the speeches and general MC’ing was fantastic and ensured everything flowed really well throughout the day.I can honestly say that you went way beyond our expectations and we were more than satisfied with your service. I’d have no hesitation in recommending you to anyone else.You were slightly more expensive than some of the quotes we have, but I can see why. You get what you pay for!Thanks Vicky & Michael

Hi Colin,We just wanted to let you know how happy we were with the music you played on saturday and how you managed the lighting and sound throughout the day. You really understood our taste in music which allowed everyone to come up and have a dance (I don’t think we noticed one person who didn’t get up and dance for at least one song!)Your professionalism mixed with your friendly nature allowed us to sit back and relax through the day knowing you had it all under control!We will be passing on how pleased we were with you to Claire at Alnwick Gardens and will be sure to recommend you to anyone else who is getting married up in the North East!Thank you again for helping make our day so special.Mr & Mrs Williams (Nick & Silvia) Wedding at Alnwick Gardens
