Sarah and Adrian were introduced to me via my link with Eltham Lodge where I am the preferred entertainment supplier. We quickly hit it off and had a good mutual understanding of what was required for their wedding celebration - helped by Sarah's mum Lynn, a great organser! Sarah's father is a golfing member of the Royal Blackheath Golf Club aka Eltham Lodge, and so between them they had a good knowledge of just how good a celebratory venue this is.
My contribution to the event was
supply of sparkling white LED dance floor
blue mood lighting for the dance area
vibrant mood lighting for the mid reception and stairwell
organisation of special moments e.g. grand entrance for the Bride and Groom, cake cutting, First Dance, Bride and Father of the Bride dance etc
wedding reception DJ
Their music policy was fairly broad with a focus on the 90s and 00s. As the age range was dominated around the 30 - 45 ages I played less older music and concentrated on the 90s forward to the current charts. See the full playlist for the evening below.
Once the venue mood lighting, dance floor and Classic DJ package was set up the venue looked superb and this was commented on my many people.
