I was back at Melville Castle this weekend to be the wedding dj for the October wedding of Lisa & Tim. Surprisingly sunny and warm, the weather was as good as it gets in October near Edinburgh.
It was my pleasure to play at the wedding of a wonderful couple and their amazing guests.

I arrived in the early afternoon to set up the equipment out of sight before the guests arrived. Nice easy access and helpful staff are always a plus for me. The stage at the far left of the marquee is the ideal area for a DJ to set up. We can keep the noise to the dance floor and still allow the guests to chat comfortably at their tables.

First Dance

The choice of music for the first dance of the night, by the bride and groom, was John Legend – All Of Me.

Lisa and Tim took their place on the dancefloor circled by their friends and family giving them a rapturous welcome. It was easy to see that everyone was close.

Wedding Shoe Game

Before the party gets started we have a quick wedding shoe game. Many of the guests had travelled a long way to attend the wedding so a quick game was organised to help break the ice.

This time it was with a wee bit of a difference, the questions were set by the guests. Everything started off fine but then came the risqué questions. Lisa and Tim are a great couple with a great sense of humour so they played right along, shocking some of their families but all in good fun!

Party Time

I was armed with a playlist provided by Lisa & Tim via their planner page on my website. A good eclectic selection of music including some Italian songs. Although Lisa is a London resident, her family originated in Italy and many family members travelled to see Lisa married.
Other music included Spanish, Hip Hop, R&B, Dance and good old disco.

It is always good to have an energetic audience, especially on a Sunday night, that really wants to party. Party they did from the very start right up until the last song. There were a number of requests to keep the music going but the time had come to end the night.

An amazing night for a special couple and their guests.

Best wishes to the newly married Lisa & Tim Blunn, it was my pleasure.

Archerfield Waterfront was the venue for the wonderful wedding of Pauline & Derek Smith.

Our First Meeting

Little did I know that the initial contact from Pauline and Derek would have ended on such a fantastic night for an amazing couple. At our, relaxed, initial meeting I could see the plans falling into place.

I have rarely seen such a relaxed couple.

So well organised with a definite plan for the correct outcome would be an understatement. They both knew exactly what they wanted and seemed very happy with my proposal on how to go forward.

Booking made, now to get everything in place.

Planning

By using their very own wedding planning site, part of the package of services we provide to our couples, Pauline and Derek set to work on their soundtrack for their special day. We ended up with a very eclectic selection of music for me on the night. With a bit of my imagination and requests from guests, the whole night was amazing.

From the very first dance, there was a dancefloor more or less full to the end of the night, just the way we all like it to be.

I enjoy doing what I do, but a night like this makes it extra special.

First Dance

It was very important to Pauline and Derek that the first dance should involve as many of the guests as possible. Something romantic, with the right message but something everyone would feel comfortable enough to dance to.

The final choice of Andy Williams’ Can’t Take My Eyes Off You was perfect for that result. A slow starter for the bride and groom then bursting into life just in time for the guests to join in.

Setup

To be absolutely certain of everything being ready in plenty of time and to make sure I was ready technically, the set up started at 11 am.

Having plenty of time I didn’t need to rush the setup I could make it just right. Normally I am given maybe 45 minutes to do a full set up and start the first dance. That is a challenge! Getting changed into fresh clothes after set up takes 10minutes alone.

I drifted in ready for the reception nice and early to start everything up for the final check before the cake cutting.

Archerfield is an amazing venue for a wedding reception. The staff are the friendliest you could meet and it is always a pleasure to work with them to make a magical night.
