Thanks to all my clients

Recently I found myself in hospital and have had to have some rather major surgery.  It has put me out of action for a good few months and I’m still in hospital as I type this.

I just want to say thanks to all my clients who I was able to work with to transition them onto new DJ’s for their Weddings and Parties.   I pride myself on my service and I understand the stress that happens in the lead up to your big day.   Having a supplier cancel such last minute is not what you want to hear.  I was able to sort out 15 events with new very respected DJ’s that the client was happy with and all went very smooth.

 

I now look forward to making a full recovery and getting back to what I love and do best DJing!!!

Norton House Wedding DJ

Norton House Wedding DJ

This Sunday past I had the pleasure of DJing at a Gibraltarian wedding.  This was a first for me where  all 100 Guests had travelled to sunny Scotland from the slightly warmer climate of Gibraltar to experience our beautiful country.  The venue, Norton House Hotel which is situation just on the outskirts of Edinburgh has serval suites to host weddings.  On this occasion I was in the Garden Suite.  This 1840’s built house is one of Scotlands top wedding venues and with the weather playing ball our Gibraltarian visitors were in for a treat.

Spanish

There was a fair few requests with a Spanish influence which was really new to me.  I must say though I really enjoyed playing that latin style of music. Who know if or when I’ll get to play music like that again.

Of course, this is Scotland and I had to introduce them to some of our local Scottish culture at a Wedding.  We finished the night off with Runrig’s Loch Lomond, this was completely new to all the guests but they gave it a very good effort for a first attempt.

My favourite part of the evening was captured in this short video when I played the proclaimers 500 miles.  Not actually a track I play that often but got an outing twice this weekend.

Seamill Hydro Wedding DJ

Seamill Hydro Wedding DJ

This Saturday past I was at the gorgeous Seamill Hydro.  The Sun was shining and the place couldn’t have looked any better.  The staff were fantastic and from my view point everything ran like clock work, I highly recommend this venue.  Everything about the Seamill Hydro is first class.

On this occasional I was DJing along side Irish folk band Tir Chonaill, I started things off with the first few dances and Tir Chonaill took over until 9pm.  Check out this short video of their first song

 

She’s a Belter

Tune of the night was Gerry Cinnamon’s  – She’s a Belter, This is a video from the 2nd time we played it.  I played the song again as one more tune following the traditional Loch Lomond. On the first play of the video we had the bride and groom on stage leading the singing.

First Dance Last!

When a appropriate I like to start the end of the night off with the first dance again and Erin & Sean’s Deacon Blue – Dignity is a perfect one for that.

 

I loved this quote from one of Erin’s friends, best tunes ever!

Paisley Wedding DJ

This is a throw back Thursday post, going back to 2016 for Mr and Mrs Reid’s wedding in Paisley.  This was the first time I had DJ’d in the historic Paisley Town Hall.  Its a beautiful building inside and out and one of Paisley’s biggest wedding venue’s.

I was on after a ceilidh band, the large floor lends it’s perfectly to traditional Scottish dancing.  They really did get the party started and left it perfectly for me to finish off the night in style.  This was a a gig I actually picked up last minute as the original DJ was ill.  So glad I got the call as it was an excellent night.
