  • Interview with Katie, from Pretty Please By Katie - Hair & Makeup Artist

    26 MAR 2021 · In this Episode I interview my good friend Katie. Katie has been a good friend of mine since 2016, we share very similar thoughts and believes on how best to run our businesses.

  • Why Photo Booths Are a Must Have At Your Wedding Reception

    18 MAR 2021 · For the couple and guests alike the evening reception is the part where you let your hair down, do away with tradition, have a few drinks and enjoy yourself. This is where the Photo Booth or Selfie-Mirror come into their own. After the speeches your day guests will be mingling, catching up and taking in the big day. Then your evening guests will start to arrive and suddenly your wedding becomes one big reunion. All your guests will want to share and look back on those memories. Having their photo taken in the Photo Booth or Selfie-Mirror and then afterwards pinning it on their fridge will serve as a constant reminder of your big day.

  • Which is best for your Evening Reception a Band or a DJ?

    10 MAR 2021 · In this episode Rob & I discuss the PROS & CONS of hiring a DJ and a Band plus explore the possibility of hiring both. Hiring a band is deemed to be expensive, but you get a lot for your money. Your guests will be entertained by live music. Which for me (even though I'm a DJ) there is nothing better. I love band music. As a DJ I have worked alongside many great bands, in doing so there is a lot which needs to be prepared beforehand. Again this is something we discuss. Also listen out for our First Dance tips and Rob's opinion on the Evening Buffet (Pork Pies)! Lighthearted as always..

  • How To Cut Costs For Your Evening Reception

    3 MAR 2021 · Getting married is incredibly expensive. The average wedding in the UK for 2019 was £32,000 with 40% of couples going over budget. With this in mind you can see why couples need to save money, it's knowing what to save money on. What is essential and what isn't? In this episode Rob and I discuss hiring a non-professional friend or relative to DJ at your wedding and why this can be a bad idea. Why a smaller wedding at a village hall or community centre shouldn't be considered any less of an occasion and why your wedding should be about what you want rather than the wants of others. A light hearted and informative chat as always

How many people are dancing? Not many. In this episode Rob & I discuss this as well as many other factors which stop your guests from dancing.
