I was delighted to be invited back for the second year running to supply my Sussex Party DJ classic service and mood lighting for Charlotte's Grand Charity Ball in aid of two very worthy cancer charities. Last year had been an absolute blast and sometimes that can be a hard one to follow. However, I needn't have been concerned; it was another great night.
As always I matched the mood lighting to the table decor - pink - to give a cohesive feel to the venue. As many said, the venue looked lovely.
