Myself and Luke would just like to say a massive massive thank you for our incredible gold Dj Package at our wedding in November, everything was absolutely incredible!! The uplighters and LOVE letters were absolutely stunning and really uplifted an already stunning venue! The lady and Gentlemen who were running the selfie mirror were both lovely! Lastly, the DJ John was just brilliant, from start to finish, so friendly and bought our night to life! You really did create an extra special evening reception for our wedding day and for that we are so grateful so Thank you so much! Becca and Luke
