House and Ibiza classics, R&B, garage, disco and the songs everyone sings along to.

We will talk through your first dance and guest requests, then your DJ will mix live and read the dance floor on the night. You do not need to choose every track, and we keep microphone use to the announcements you want. Listen to our music playlists for ideas, then meet Darryl Green, our founder and a DJ since 2006, or browse our wedding DJs.
Real weddings, with reviews from the couples who booked us.
At Apton Hall, we’ve provided DJ, sax and bongos. At Houchins, Darryl has played alongside Mike on percussion. You can read the couples’ reviews and see more on our venue pages. Wherever you are getting married, we speak to the venue about access, sound limits and setup times. For outdoor music, we also check power, shelter and what happens if it rains.
Live sax, house and Ibiza classics, with room for your other favourites.
If you love the idea of live music on the dance floor, pair your wedding DJ with a saxophonist. Sax works with house and Ibiza classics as well as soul, disco and R&B. You can add live bongos, book DJ, sax and bongos together, or choose The Ibizans DJ live band with a singer.
Good sound matters, and so does how the setup looks in your wedding photos. We choose speakers and lighting for your venue and guest numbers, with a white DJ booth available for a clean, understated finish.
Lighting options include a soft wash of colour around the room, moving lights and LED effects for the dance floor. We will talk you through what works for your space and confirm the setup before you book.
