Ensuring the music is perfect for your wedding is a key focus of ours.
We understand it’s one of the essential ingredients to an amazing day.
There are so many options out there, but here are a few points to consider when selecting your Berkshire Wedding DJ.

The music played at a wedding is something guests will remember for years to come, so it’s important to get it right. Another point worth considering is music can be a subjective topic, and often partners will have different tastes themselves. So how can you make sure you and your guests have a fabulous evening?
Begin by looking for a DJ who understands the link between emotion connections and songs.
Music is very powerful and can take you back to a different time or place. It’s the reason you feel happy when a song gets played on the radio and brings back memories of school, your first car, a fun holiday or a wild night out at uni.
Listening to songs from your mid-teens to early 20s can instantly turn you into a time traveller.
It’s the perfect place to start when compiling your playlist, especially if a large number of your guests shared your life during this time.

A Night Of Amazing Music
Most mobile DJs don’t recognise the importance of emotional connections.
They turn up with the same set of songs they’ve played for years and can’t understand why less people are dancing each time.
Everyone has been to one of “those” weddings and its fear of their own turning into one which has seen more couples booking bands recently.
Bands supply a set list so a couple have total control over which songs are played. Choose one with a charismatic frontman or woman and they will create a fun atmosphere.
The problem is they are usually more costly than a DJ, but you really don’t require a large budget to hear the music you love. Simply find a DJ who’s willing to work with you to build a great night of music.

Find An Amazing Berkshire Wedding DJ
Search for a DJ who will:
* Play all of your pre requests and is happy playing YOUR songs even if they are not familiar to them.
* Stick to YOUR brief because they care about customer satisfaction.
* Understand and recognise trends.
* Prioritise YOUR happiness instead of their ego.
Let’s look at those points more closely.
Unfortunately suppling a DJ with a list doesn’t always mean you’ll hear those requests on the night. If the DJ if unfamiliar with the songs it may take them out of their comfort zone, and they’ll get left off. This is the DJs issue, not yours. The DJ not turning up with your requests is also not your issue. Your expectation is you’ll be able to hear those songs on the night.
Recognising trends is also an important skill and by this we don’t just mean downloading the latest hits. Knowing why particular older tracks are popular again and knowledge of popular themed club nights will help influence the evening.
Those nights out will have created positive emotional connections to music outside of their party-going years.

Prioritising Your Happiness
The final point is about prioritising your happiness, and this is the most important. You’ve booked a wedding DJ to do a job.
The job could be to deliver an amazing night for your guests, and you’ve given them full creative freedom. Or it could be you only want a certain style of music playing and have a particular list of songs you want them to stick to. Some DJs struggle with this. Their mindset is of a club DJ whose main purpose is to make everyone dance.
A great wedding DJ will follow what you’ve asked of them and will not be looking to fill their own personal pleasure in pursuit of a full dancefloor.
Although we generally get one.
That’s what makes us one of the most popular Berkshire Wedding DJ teams.
It’s the reason we receive so many positive testimonials.

Here’s What Our Clients Say
All our guests had a brilliant time.
Charlie did an absolutely amazing job at our wedding last week! He was our all day DJ and went above and beyond to really help the day run smoothly. He is also just a genuinely lovely guy, would definitely recommend!
Sophie, September 2023
It was a great set and everyone really enjoyed the music!
Wow! What an amazing DJ! Charlie put us at ease straight away and even came to check when it was ok to play certain songs and what we’d like to end on for the night! There were no awkward pauses and the music just flowed.
Amy, 2023
We had the best time and everyone has since been saying how amazing the music was.

Rachel, Wasing Park, December 2023
A great mixture of songs across all decades.
Charlie DJ’d for us at our wedding on 10th June and he did an absolutely amazing job!!
He went above and beyond to help us with our playlist and our first dance music before the big day which really took the pressure off. Having him there truly made ours and everyone’s night so special.
Natalie, June 2023
100% recommend them. Thank you so much!
They were the dream team. They were constantly on the ball keeping the whole night running smoothly and seamlessly. Genuinely lovely people too. My sister’s planning was made easier with their advice and experience with what works best. So many jams in the evening too. 100% recommend them. Thank you so much!
Emily, September 2023
The dancefloor was busy all evening which was exactly what we were aiming for!
We used Berkshire Event DJs for our wedding at the Elvetham Hotel, and couldn’t recommend them more. Simon made the organisation effortless and was very quick to answer any of our questions. It was also possible to suggest plenty of songs that we were keen to hear. On the evening our DJ was fantastic and our guests loved the music. The dancefloor was busy all evening which was exactly what we were aiming for! Thanks again for making sure we had an amazing time.
Brennen, October 2023
Slick, seamless mixing of all our favourite tunes.
What a wonderful time! We chose Berkshire Event DJ’s for our wedding based on recommendations from the venue. Up to the event, we had great communication from Simon and then Charlie who DJ’d on the day was superb – slick, seamless mixing of all our favourite tunes and he worked so well with the band that we had too – we didn’t have to worry about a thing. There were constantly people on the dance floor having a great time. Would highly recommend them for any event.
Simon, October 2023
The reviews weren’t lying when they said you were the best in the business.
Simon and Charlie what a fantastic evening – without you guys there wouldn’t of been a party. The song choices were absolutely fantastic and everyone thoroughly enjoyed themselves with quite a few guests not being able to step away from the dance floor! Charlie was absolutely top notch and we are so glad we had you guys orchestrating the evening and can’t thank you enough for keeping the party going! The reviews weren’t lying when they said you were the best in the business.
