Manchester based musician for weddings and events

Absolutely! I’m happy to take requests in advance from you or your guests on the day or night. You can browse my set lists HERE and email me with any specific requests.

Another great idea is to include a section on your wedding invites where guests can make song requests. If there’s a song I don’t perform, we can always include it in the playlist or DJ Sets.

I’ve tried to make this super easy for clients. Most venues already have access to my details but for those who aren’t familiar with me simply direct them to HERE and all the information they require will likely be on there. All insurance and PAT certificates are renewed annually in August and in a similar way to how your own personal insurances work the new documents are only available once the policy is due to start therefore don’t worry if the certificates on there expire before your wedding date, just inform the venue that these will be updated on that page once they are valid.

The ceremony performance will  usually consist of a total of 8/9 songs these include:

• 4 or 5 Songs whilst the guests are seating
• 1 song for the isle walk (can be chopped or edited ‘on the fly’ to best fit the brides arrival)
• 3 songs during the signing of the register
• 1 upbeat song to walk out to

I’m always happy to learn new songs that would personalise the experience for you. I normally would have to limit this to one per booking but if you have a special song you would like for the first dance / ceremony I’d be happy to work on an arrangement for you. The arrangement would always be my interpretation of the song  done in a way that would best suit my performance style but where appropriate I’ll always try and send you a recording a week or so in advance of the the date to check that it is what you are looking for. I do have to limit songs learnt to 1 per booking which is usually the first dance.

The client call usually takes place about 2/3 months before the booking. This allows us to chat either by telephone or zoom usually  and we would look at putting together a schedule to make sure you get exactly what you want from the package you have booked. We can discuss anything from a running order to song requests. It also gives me time to learn more about you and your guests. The meeting would usually take no longer than an hour. I’m also super keen to meet in person if it’s logistically possible. We can meet at a cafe / bar somewhere in between both of our addresses but must be within 30 Miles of Manchester. Whatever works best for you!

I’m always happy to get people involved in the performances and if you as the person booking the entertainment are happy for people to join and sing a song or 2 with me then so am I. I find it is a great way of bringing your guests in to the party and making the entertainment more personal but we do always have to be mindful to not cheapen the experience by turning it into a Karaoke free for all.

I always load in and finish off the night in branded work wear which makes it easy for venue staff and organisers to know who I am and what I’m doing. During any front facing aspects of the day such as performances / hosting – both myself and any additional crew members will be wearing appropriate outfits that are suitable for the event we are working on. It’s often worth mentioning that after the final live evening set, I tend to change into branded T-Shirts again for the finale as trust me with the energy and sweat that comes off the evening performances it’s for the best! I have in the past been able to customise my attire to your theme or if you have any questions or concerns with my usual clothing please do mention this during the consultation.

Superb! Visit my booking enquiries page and drop me a line to check my availability.

If I am available, I do require a 50% deposit to secure the date which can be paid easily online. Payments are secured via Stripe. There is also a simple online booking form where you can submit the details and check the package and agreement. Upon receipt of the deposit and booking form I will put together a booking confirmation for your records and provide you a login to the ‘Client Portal’ area where you can manage all aspects of your booking.

From then we’d arrange to meet up/call for the consultation nearer the booking date and tailor your chosen package to your special day. As stated above, the final balance can then be paid anytime on or up to 30 days prior to your event either Online by Card, Bank Transfer, or PayPal.
