Do you travel outside Hertfordshire?

Yes – while Hertfordshire is my home base, I regularly perform for weddings in Essex, Cambridgeshire, and London. I also travel across the UK for select events, with travel expenses and accommodation added where applicable.

How far in advance should we book you?

Popular wedding dates can book up to 12–18 months in advance, so it’s best to secure your date as early as possible. However, I occasionally have short-notice availability – feel free to check anytime.

Can we choose our own music?

Absolutely! Every playlist is personalised to match your taste and the energy you want for your night. You can share must-plays, genres, and do-not-plays, and I’ll handle the flow, mixing, and crowd-reading on the night.

Do you offer lighting and setup options?

Yes – I provide a range of lighting and setup options to suit your venue and style, including wireless uplighting, elegant booth designs, and complete sound systems for ceremony, dinner, and evening reception.

80s Pop Classics DJ – The Ultimate Throwback for Your Wedding or Event

If you want to bring a burst of retro energy to your celebration, an 80s Pop Classics DJ is the perfect choice. The decade delivered some of the most iconic, feel-good tracks ever made — the kind of anthems that get every generation dancing, singing and smiling. Whether it’s a wedding, birthday or themed event, 80s music brings nostalgia, fun and an atmosphere no other era can match.

Why 80s Pop Classics Work at Any Party

The 1980s produced some of the most unforgettable chart-topping hits. From Wham!, Culture Club and Duran Duran to Madonna, Prince and Michael Jackson, the era is packed with upbeat, catchy songs that instantly lift the room.

These tracks work brilliantly for mixed-age crowds because they’re familiar, energetic and universally loved. It’s one of the rare decades where you’ll see grandparents, parents and friends all singing the same chorus together.
