Preston wedding singer and dj – Martin and julie’s big day at Farington Lodge

Well, my job as a Preston wedding singer and DJ is never without event! An accident involving a lorry on the motorway nearly put my appearance at Martin and Julie’s big day in total jeopardy!

I was hired to sing at the drinks reception, after the first dance and to provide a DJ service for Martin and Julie.  I always set off early enough to leave two hours to set up my equipment when I arrive. It doesn’t take that long but I like to be there nice and early to talk to the staff, feel the venue out and see what the best options are going to be. Also, I don’t like to be rushed. I want to be relaxed as I set up so I’m relaxed as I perform. That’s the key to a good performance for me.

I always leave myself a good 90 minutes to play around with should anything pop up. And pop up it did!! I found myself sat on the M61, dead still, for about 17 years give or take! I called ahead to the venue as I really didn’t expect to make it in time, but mercifully, the traffic started to move and I was able to thrash my car within an inch of it’s life to reach the venue with 20 minutes to spare! That’s when the bride and groom were due to arrive in their very groovy VW Camper wedding car.

So, I started to sing the songs Martin and Julie had picked out for the congregated guests in the summer sun as they drank their champagne.  The selection they had picked worked well and everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves. 

After a couple of hours of sun and songs everyone went inside to enjoy the wedding breakfast and speeches. When they came out for coffee I nipped in to set up for the disco.

It was a great night that started with a lovely first dance to the Oasis song Songbird. It was really nice. Very fitting, very understated. A really nice moment that began a great evening.

As a wedding guitarist I can fit into ANY situation. From quiet instrumental guitar wedding music to upbeat covers to fill a dance floor! A chilled acoustic session to a guitar soloing, drum looping, bass pumping full band sound! From very quiet to VERY loud! 

I play over 300 well known hits from all eras! Including songs by artists such as Ed Sheeran, The Beatles, Oasis and George Ezra. All the way through to rock classics by Queen, Bryan Adams, Kings Of Leon and many more!
