Feedback from The Wedding Industry Awards TWIA
There was a moment on my wedding day where I was sat outside alone as the guests filtered into the Cedar Suite, and Toby immediately made his way over to chat with me, making me laugh with a couple of stories of previous weddings he had worked. Toby also offered so much care as our wedding was running a bit late, even helping the hotel staff with carrying in dessert plates to help keep things moving. He went above and beyond anything we could have hoped for, and the support he offered was amazin

Toby was excellent and extremely responsive to the reception. The quality of his work stayed consistently brilliant throughout the evening and everyone really enjoyed themselves. He also adapted very well to situations that we had not warned him about (e.g. we started tossing the bouquet informally and he announced it) which was very appreciated and made the evening more special. Great service throughout the entire process and would gladly hire him again.

Toby was absolutely amazing, I could not recommend him enough to anyone else. He helped us sort our playlist before the wedding & the service that we received from him was exceptional. On the day of the wedding he did not disappoint us, he played the songs we chose, he played a few more songs to get our guests on the dance floor & he was very involved which we loved.

Toby was fantastic from beginning to end. He really got to know us as a couple, understood our vision of the day as a whole and accommodated in every way possible. Toby’s knowledge and experience in DJing and the wedding industry is incredible. He made great suggestions for things we hadn’t even thought about and made sure that every detail was exactly how we wanted it. Toby delivered in every way – and he’s SUCH a nice guy!

Toby was outstanding, he was able to quickly work out the best songs required for our wedding to get the dance floor full. Can’t recommend highly enough. He was also very friendly and the Eagle wedding party enjoyed the night

Toby was a truly outstanding DJ and played a large part in making our day so special. From the moment of our first inquiry he was fantastic and seemed genuinely to care about making our day special. He made everything completely seemless and thought about things that we hadn’t even considered ourselves. His DJing throughout the day was sublime, and following our event, friends who have been to a great many weddings said that he was the best music they’d even had. I cannot recommend Toby more.

Toby was amazing on our wedding day filling in any role we needed on the day with some added special extras. He gave an introduction to our speeches, managed the order and introductions. He made sure to bring some dry ice for some added flare. He was very attentive and allowed my daughter to do a solo. He was very approachable and flexible ensuring both myself and my husband as well as our family and guests had a fantastic time.
Toby is miles apart from other DJ’s we have seen at other weddings

Toby is an outstanding DJ and he was one of the highlights of our wedding day. His charisma is memorable. The choice of music, the effects he created, his interactions at the right time, absolutely everything was spot on!

Toby did an excellent job for our wedding! He was very punctual and organised and took all of our ideas into consideration! Toby mingled with our guests and made everyone feel welcome! We were very relaxed during the day and felt at peace knowing Toby had everything under control! He’s amazing at what he does!

Toby was excellent from booking right through to the big day. He clearly knows how to do his job very well and really put us at ease knowing he had everything in control. Nothing was too much trouble and he accommodated all our requests. I wouldn’t hesitate to use him again and would recommend him to anyone.

Toby was incredible. From start to finish he knew exactly what we needed. The music and timing of the songs kept the dance floor full. We had a very mixed taste of songs and he blended them brilliantly! His kit was well positioned and the lighting was awesome. During the ceremony he tucked himself away but always attentive! His compare skills were amazing and everything ran on time, came in on cue and kept the energy up.
Genuinely an amazing human and brilliant at his job.

We had heard about Toby through word of mouth from other wedding suppliers and he did not disappoint! After our first enquiry he sent out a detailed brochure of what he could offer and we were quick to secure a date with him. He was incredibly professional in our meeting prior to the wedding and put us at ease. He was incredibly quick with setting up and he judged the dance floor very well. Everything ran like clockwork throughout the night thanks to Toby’s guidance! We were so grateful!

Very pleased with Toby as DJ for our wedding. We didn’t know where to start and were recommended by Lainston House and I can see why! Very responsive by email and appreciated our chats. His website is very easy to use, very simple process to complete and was very pleased with his services overall. On the day of the wedding he was there in very good time, we had a chat about the evening – first dance, cake etc and more generally about how the day was going. Pleasure to meet him!

Toby was absolutely fantastic on not only the wedding day but also the lead up to the wedding. His booking system was very easy and clear, with a variety of different packages to choose from. About 2/3 weeks before the wedding day he got in touch to book a pre wedding meeting and during the meeting he was very informative and made us feel really comfortable and confident in his ability to make sure the atmosphere was perfect on the day.
The wedding day wouldn’t have been the same without Toby.

Our DJ went above and beyond for your day. Not only did he deliver what we booked but he even went the extra mile and done extra things for us which weren’t part of the booking. We couldn’t have been happier with our choice of DJ.

Toby was great to deal with. He was really accommodating and happy to play a (long!) list of favourites we’d sent him. We asked him to keep the dancefloor packed after our first dance and he certainly did that, judging the mood and the tastes of the crowd perfectly. It was a party tailored to us and our friends/family, definitely not a cut and paste from another wedding. We also loved the first dance fireworks and we appreciated Toby’s suggestion of what would work in our marquee

Toby was amazingly professional and maintained excellent levels of communication throughout the whole booking process. Toby listened to our request and delivered a DJ set that we felt reflected our musical taste well and was adaptive to the energy level of the room. Toby had to contend with a rugby match on at the same time of some of his set and was able to adapt well and keep good energy in the room before finish the night off after the match. Overall we felt the entertainment perfect!

Toby was fantastic from start to finish! The set up was so quick and the room looked fab with the up lighting. Toby was super fun and our dance floor wasn’t empty once. He listened to what we wanted and delivered to the max! We asked for a half hour of power, including ACDC, Iron Maiden, Metallica,which everyone loved! It was such a good party and Toby kept the vibe going. People have commented that in was the best wedding and party ever!!

He was excellent at reading the room and judging the guests responces. We had a diverse wedding party and everyone felt they could vibe with what was played throughout the evening

We personally didn’t feel the need to give Toby a full list of songs we definitely wanted to hear as just after speaking with him for 15 minutes, he already had us down to a tee! We put complete trust in Toby and wow, he did not disappoint!! From the sheer perfection of timing from the moment the helicopter arrived, to the last moves on the dance floor, Toby was absolutely outstanding! We have received multiple compliments on how he entertained and was the perfect DJ!
