for most DJ's a quiet day, but as I also provide AV equipment for conferances & meetings it meant that I had to at the venue for 7am, so that I could set up all the equipment, which was a sound system for 100 attendees, and a wireless lapel microphone for the speaker to use.

Sunday morning we had a very early start as we needed to be at Orwell Park in Ipswich for 9am, for their wedding open day, we were showcasing our wedding disco and Mood Uplighting.

So we managed to get set in plenty of time at this truly outstanding venue, and wow what a fantastic day we had with over 50 bride & grooms visiting the venue throughout the day, and Sharon & I managed to chat with most of them, and by the end of the night we had received an enquiry already, so hopefully it was a productive day

Friday 20th February
This was a civil partnership for two relly nice guys, Matthew & John, I arrived at Stock Brook Manor at about 6.30pm, in plenty of time for my 7pm start in the rosewood.

As I arrived I could tell that the entire room was in the mood for a party, so we got things underway very quickly, with the cutting of the cake & first dances, which was followed by a micture of the music that they had previously chosen, by using my online music selector (see Below), and music that I chose myself to compliment their list, and wow what a fantastic night was had by all

Saturday 21st February

Part 2 of the perfect weekend for me, I as in the same room, at the same venue 2 nights running, so I had most of the day to day as I wanted.

So the morninng was spent back at Stock Brook Manor, as I had a brief planning meeting with members of the commitee of the Basildon Round Table, as there were technical things that we needed to discuss before their Ladies night next Saturday.

That was folowed by a brief trip around the shops with my daughter & her boyfriend, as they are setting up home, and so we went to but them some things, then home to listen to BBC Essex so that I could listen to the commentary for Colchester v Southend, and what a game as the MIGHTY SHRIMPERS won the game 1-0.

Then it was off to Stock Brook a little early, as the bride & groom had booked a singer to entertain for the early part of the evening, and he was using my sound equipment.

And wow what another great evening with a packed dance florr to the following music that was chosen by the bride & groom
