Kelly & Martin’s Real Essex Wedding
A Perfect Celebration at St Osyth Priory
This weekend I had the pleasure of being Wedding DJ for Kelly & Martin’s beautiful wedding at St Osyth Priory, one of Essex’s most historic and romantic venues.
It was the kind of evening every couple dreams of, laughter everywhere, a full dancefloor from start to finish, and the perfect blend of timeless classics and modern favourites.
The First Dance
Kelly & Martin chose John Denver’s “Annie’s Song” for their first dance, a gentle, heartfelt moment that stopped everyone in their tracks. They’d clearly rehearsed it with care, and it set a truly emotional tone before the party began.
The Music That Made the Night
As an experienced Wedding DJ in Essex, I always build each set around the couple’s personality and taste. Kelly & Martin’s playlist mixed soulful favourites, Motown classics, disco grooves and just the right amount of pop and party anthems to keep every generation on their feet.
Disco & Funk Favourites
- Stevie Wonder – Signed, Sealed, Delivered (I’m Yours)
Cheryl Lynn – Got To Be Real
Barry White – You’re The First, The Last, My Everything
Earth, Wind & Fire – Boogie Wonderland
Gap Band – Outstanding
The Whispers – And The Beat Goes On

A Classic Essex Celebration
Kelly & Martin’s wedding at St Osyth Priory was everything a wedding should be: elegant, relaxed and full of life. It was a real honour to be part of their day and to create a soundtrack that reflected their love and energy.
