It’s been a few years since I’ve DJ’d at Leigh Court, but it hasn’t changed a bit. This time I was the Wedding reception DJ for Abi & Cole and set-up in the Tapestry room.
With the number of rooms at Leigh Court and with the bar the opposite end of the building it can sometimes be difficult for the Wedding reception DJ to see what guests are around. If there are quieter times all you can do is keep playing some great tunes and hope that it can be heard around the corridors in order to draw them towards the dancefloor. As you can see from the Instagram clip this strategy worked out well.
There are a few more clips in my Instagram post here: https://www.instagram.com/reel/C_ms7B2Nv4a
With one half of the happy couple being Canadian there was a country feel to some of the playlist along with some more traditional Wedding songs. The songs played on the night are shown in order below.
