September weddings

Just to say … I’m back and these two great events are happening!

Just to say … I’m back and these two great events are happening!

I’m just about to rush off for a meeting but I just wanted to post a quick update to get a couple of things on your radar.

When I say I’m back that’s because we’ve just had a fabulous break away in Fuerteventura (I don’t want to make you too jealous so I won’t post a picture … no, I’m a horrible person, so here’s one!)

So it’s back to work now and I’m preparing for two excellent events in the next few days

First, on Sunday …
Brockenhurst Village Hall wedding fair. It’s FREE entry and there will be plenty of great wedding experts on hand to chat to. I understand there will also be a welcome drink and a goodie bag. Brockenhurst Village Hall is in Highwood Road and the postcode is SO42 7RY.

Then on Wednesday evening I’m hosting another of my “Your The Man” Bridegroom’s workshops, which isn’t really a workshop at all. It’s just an evening for the gentleman when I run through their responsibilities and help them with great ideas so that everybody thinks they are a “top bloke”. I could tell you more but then I’d have to kill you – so, if you know anyone who might be interested (even if they aren’t my client and don’t need a DJ) tell them to email me paul@thepartydj.co.uk and I’ll tell them more.

I actually haver lots to tell you but I’ll get to the other stuff later I just wanted to let you know about these two great events before I went to my meeting ~ Cheers! x

Diary Dates

April is looking like a busy month with lots of planning meetings, weddings, and much more! Here are four special events for your diary.

Sunday 12th April ~ Filming
You’ve probably seen some of the footage I’ve been sharing of my fabulous clients talking about their wedding experiences. Well we’re shooting some more on Sunday 12th of this month, so if you are one of my clients (wedding or party) and you can spare half an hour I’d love to get you on video too. Just let me know what time would be best for you! paul@thepartydj.co.uk

Then it’s two wedding fairs – both at venues that I haven’t DJ’d at for a long time …

Finally at the end of the month Tuesday 28th April ~ Your WOW Wedding event
The second time this year I’m presenting this evening to run through the wedding day timeline and how you can put the WOW guide into action – if you haven’t got a copy email me today for a PDF version. Here’s what Hannah had to say about the last event …

I really loved how Paul cared so much! He really showed that he wanted to help us all make our wedding day special! Paul gave some great tips and ideas which I had never even thought about! The real life testimonials were such a lovely touch and really insightful of what you could do for us!

    Sunday 10th ~ Lovely and Vintage Wedding Fayre

    IMG_4195

    It’s been a very very busy week, especially considering that I don’t have a booking this weekend. I’ve had meetings with two couples whose weddings are fast approaching and two more with couples who have now booked me to play at their weddings.

    Gary, my colleague from The Party Hosts and I also had a very exciting meeting with a very prestigious venue to talk about mood lighting and entertainment. Meanwhile Alan, the other Party Host, has been in Vegas at the annual DJ convention and training with the amazing Mark and Rebecca Ferrell – Gary and I have to wait until May for our next sessions with mark and Rebecca when they visit the UK again.

    I’m eally looking forward to my first wedding fayre with Lovely and Vintage on Sunday at Victoria House in Hamble. I was over that way yesterday visiting one of my new couples and it was great to see some nice big yellow signs directing people to the event. Gary’s at the Southend Barn’s wedding fayre So come and say hello ~ bonus points if you come and see BOTH of us!
