I recorded the following sample of my DJ Playlist from an evening wedding reception in Christchurch just over a week ago. It was a fairly young audience and from the wedding music requests given I got an idea of the sorts of songs to concentrate on. The song order shows how I mixed them on the night and contains the guest’s requests (Marked in bold) Everybody dance – Bob Sinclar I

CIVIL PARTNERSHIP HEN NIGHT I can honestly say that this was the longest consultation I have ever had. The girls who are getting married in July wanted the perfect playlist for their up and coming Hen Night. We had an enormous amount of fun batting ideas back and forth and we finally came up with the ultimate playlist for their big Hen night. I am sure that some of them will make their way

NEW SONG ADDED: ‘HAVEN’T MET YOU YET’ This song is a well overdue but as I performed this live for the first time at a wedding last weekend I consider it officially READY and so am now adding this to my current Wedding Singer Repertoire. ‘Haven’t met you yet' is the first Single from Michael Bublé’s fourth album Crazy Love. It performed very well in the charts and deservedly so as it has a

LA VIE EN ROSE All first dances are special, but every now and then a certain song is chosen that is simply perfect.

If you have spent even 10 minutes crawling the web recently you’ll know that there are tons of wedding entertainers out there promising to ‘make your day’ and ‘wow your guests’ . The question is which are genuine class acts and which are, shall we say, faking it!? If you are fortunate enough to be able to preview a Singer, Band, DJ etc at another wedding here a few things you might want to look

Having a large and varied repertoire/ song list is essential for any professional Wedding Singer who wishes to produce unique and tailored shows. Before thinking about your demos, stage clothes, equipment and even advertising you should put some serious time in and come up with a show – a list of songs that are compatible and that will make for some great listening when performed live.

NEW WEDDING MUSIC ADDED My apologies for the lateness of this post. With it being such a busy year in 2009 I’ve only just managed to make this update to my repertoire/ Song List. These are all great songs, some of which were learnt especially for clients who purchased a ‘New Song Add-On’ for their first dance or otherwise.

STAINLESS STEEL, TUNGSTEN AND FASHION JEWELLERY I recently came a cross a store on Amazon that sells a nice range of various types of Jewellery.
