Booked for Birthday party

We booked the DJ and Photo Mirror package for our Mum's 50th Birthday party and I can't tell you enough how pleased we were with the service! Richie was very professional and a lovely guy, who stayed in contact throughout the duration of the party prep. Arrived on time and was a big hit with all of the guests, happily playing any requests. Everyone loved the photo mirror too (Rob was very friendly and encouraged people to use it!) We loved the photo album that came with it. If in any doubt, book with Richie, you wont be disappointed! 😁

Booked for Birthday party

Absolutely perfect! This made my birthday really special and I’m so glad I found Dave on here. From start to finish he was great. Communicated the whole time, arrived exactly as planned and really made an effort with all my friends and family. The music set was exactly like the video posted online and he had everyone up and dancing. Just brilliant. This could not have been any better, we just wish we had booked him for an even longer set. Don’t hesitate to book - great singer, reliable, professional and very personable. Thank you so much for making my birthday special.
