Your wedding day is the most important day of your life and having the right music and atmosphere for the evening entertainment is essential.
With over 25 years experience of providing music for wedding receptions you can rely on REMEMBER THIS DISCO to provide the right mix of music for you and your guests whatever their ages. Whilst your guests may not remember what they ate, their last memory will be of the music. We will entertain your grandparents and your coolest of friends with a tailor made mix of music for them. It has to be perfect and as Sarah & Adam said: "just wanted to say a massive thank you for putting on such a good disco on Saturday night, everyone had an amazing time, you were just perfect! "

We will usually set up before your guests sit down for the wedding breakfast, subject to the venue and timings permitting, to ensure you and your guests are not disturbed. Background music (BGM) can be supplied with your choice of genre(s), which could be easy listening, classical, love songs or any other theme you choose. If BGM is provided, microphones will be available and radio microphones are available for speeches at no extra cost. As we have two sets of sound equipment, we may be able to provide BGM in a seperate room.
For those operating on a tight budget, we can also perform "Toastmaster" duties and introduce the speakers.
Barns, marquees and village halls can be transformed by uplighters and coloured spotlights and our fog machine*. We can colour wash any venue to co-ordinate with your wedding colours. If external uplighters are not provided by the venue, we can arrange these at an extra cost.
If you are expecting lots of children for your wedding celebration, we can also help you source a face painter or entertainer to help entertain the children. If we know in advance we can do a few children's games to keep them amused.
Using our laser text we can, subject to venue size and layout, put your names up in lights.
You could have your own gobo slide too! This is a great way to personalise your event, and we can arrange this for you. Images like this these cost around £200 + VAT each for you to keep. We can also provide similar gobos using a laptop and projector for a fraction of this cost.
A current trend is to play the wedding shoe game - a version of Mr. & Mrs. where the bride and groom sit back to back and answer question by holding up either their own or their partner's shoe. We have a great list of questions to ask and like to customise the game by getting some special knowledge about the Bride & Groom. If you would like us to do this, just ask.
It is traditional that the bride and groom start the dancing with a special love song and if you wish we will help you choose from our extensive music library. Remember that you need to have a wedding song that you can move to! If you have no idea, listen to Westlife's "Beautiful In White" or there is Nathan Sykes of "Wanted" fame's Over and Over Again" or John Legend's "All Of Me" (we have an uptempo dance version of this too), and this apparently was the first song at Kim Kardashian's wedding. Ed Sheeran wrote "Thinking Out Loud" to be a friend's first dance, and "Perfect" has also now become popular. For traditionalists there are Nat King Cole's "When I Fall In Love" or Van Morrison's "Have I Told You Lately" , for "Crooners" try Andy Williams' "Hawaiian Wedding Song" (featured in Hawaii 5-0) or for a country tear jerker try Gretchen Peters - "When You Are Old" or Brett Young - "In Case You Didn't Know" . We can help with songs for father/daughter and mother/son dances too. As a tip, if you want your guests to join you for your first dance or for the second song, pick a track that is well known and that your guests, who are usually of all ages, will feel comfortable with.
Some bride-to-be magazines tell you that if you have a good DJ he will take a playlist. We are always happy to help you with your playlist to ensure that you hear the music you want to hear and that your wedding party is one to remember. We think a really good DJ will read the crowd and the best evenings are where we balance a small playlist with our blend of favourites and current hits, and requests on the night. Please don't ask 100 guests to each choose a song for us to play in a 3 hour set as about 16 tracks per hour is the norm and half will be left disappointed! It is worth pointing out from years of experience that party guests like to be able to request music on the evening and are usually disappointed when they cannot do this because a full playlist is provided.
If you would like a pre-wedding meeting for an hour to discuss music, timings, or anything to do with your special day this can be arranged within the quotation. Our wealth of experience of wedding days may be useful in your planning process.

"Thank you for a great night on our wedding. You were great, we all loved it" - Camille
"Just a quick note to thank you for your disco you supplied for us at Dale Hill Golf Club on the 23rd August. Graham was fantastic . From telling us when there was a break in our first dance, so as to invite others onto the floor saving us from the spotlight for too long!, to his choice of music, the dance floor was packed all night. " - Loz and Ally
"Thank you so much for all you did for us at our wedding..all our guests were dancing the night away. We will highly recommend your amazing service to everyone we know" - Becky & Martyn
"We would like to thank you for the disco you provided at our recent wedding. I don't think I have ever been to a wedding where so many people have danced and had such a fabulous time! Thank you for making our reception so special" - Troy & Carl
"You provided the disco for our wedding at XXXX on the 9th September and both Ellen and I would like to thank you very much for the superb job you did despite the venue's best efforts to scupper the evening! Everyone we have spoken to was impressed with the disco and we both know the efforts you went to make the evening a success, for which we are extremely grateful" - Ellen and Richard Bradley
"We wanted to say a big thank you for the music at the wedding. You really entertained everyone from the children right up to my grandad who is 83- and who was dancing the longest!! You really made our day special so thank you very much." Emily & Gareth
* Some venues, particularly hotels, do not permit fog machines although we use water based product.
If your function is in a marquee, please remember to instruct the marquee erectors to leave sufficient space for the disco to work in. We ask for 4m frontage and 2.5m depth. Marquee companies often forget to leave space for the DJ and his equipment.
As a rough guide, it is advisable to allow about 0.25 sq m per guest as dance floor space. Not everybody will dance at the same time and all the time, but this should give you just about enough space. Danceoholics need 1sq m per person. A dance floor can transform any venue, especially marquees.
Using LED lighting, REMEMBER THIS DISCO can change the appearance of a room or marquee, and co-ordinate with wedding or party colour schemes. Uplighters will dramatically change the appearance of a marquee or room.
Setting the atmosphere is important with lighting effects that include using the wedding colour theme.
We prefer to set up before your guests arrive

REMEMBER THIS DISCO can also supply a CANDY FAVOUR STATION which is a cost effective way of providing your guests with favours as well as an addiitonal activity for the evening. A small chocolate fountain is also available.
