It was a pleasure to DJ for Sian and Billie, their family and guests as all were in a great party mood on a beautiful June evening in a west facing garden room venue. They had requested a selection of party hits from the 80s and 90s, plus modern tunes and a little rock n roll. In addition, and as a special mix, they wanted to recreate memories of a fabulous Hen celebration abroad and they asked for a 6 song mix in the middle of the evening as a tribute to the Hens - see the full playlist below. As ever I was delighted to deliver my Sussex Wedding DJ Classic evening only service.
The guests mainly ranged in ages from early 20s to 50s, plus a few elders and so the music mix reflected this. They made some excellent requests and it is just this type of rapport I look to establish - playing meaningful tunes that reverberate throughout the group.
