MY DIFFERENCES
I promise all my couples that they will leave their wedding feeling like nothing on earth could have gone better, or their money back, and with an untouchable record having done over 1,000 events that’s just one of my passionate differences to the rest. It’s my way of saying I’m committed to my bride and grooms definition of excellence.

Here’s an example of my love for helping others in action…

I hosted a wedding at the fabulous Gaynes Park and was just finishing my final preparations before the marriage when the groom, Andy came into the barn and said: “Terry, Tracy (the bride) is the only person speaking today because I’m too nervous, but I learned a song on the piano 3 days ago, but I’m not sure If I should do it…”

I put my hand on his shoulder and said: “It will melt Tracy’s heart, I think you should, I also think you’ll regret it if you don’t.”

After the photos, and before guests entered for the wedding breakfast, Andy came back into the barn alone and said he would do it. A small piano was already set up in the bottom right-hand corner, and he asked if he could practise.

“Of course!”

Aimee, the coordinator and I sat down, and Andy began to play. It was a classic Luther Vandross ballad. He hit a wrong note here and there but continued to the end.

It wasn’t perfect, but somehow it was perfect for the moment. I said “Andy, even if you hit a wrong note while performing it, it won’t matter at all. Tracy will love the meaning.

After Tracy concluded her speech I announced Andrew would deliver a surprise to his bride.

When his applause subsided, he began to play.

About a minute and a half in, Tracy’s eyes filled with tears of pride and happiness. Shortly after Andy hit a wrong note, he dropped his head and shook it. I put my hand on his shoulder and said: “It’s OK; do it again.”

We applauded him on, and he started to play, but partway through the rerun he hit another wrong note and stopped for the second time, but this time the applause from his friends and family, and wife was so encouraging he looked at me and said, “Can I do it again?” I smiled and said, “Of course you can!”

When we all eventually stopped cheering him on, he played Luther for the third time… Andy went from the beginning to the end flawlessly. Can you imagine how he felt?

 

 



Dear Terry, Where to begin?

Thank you so much for everything on our wedding day – skill, talent, charisma, humour, fun and genuine care.

Your effortless charm and personal touches did not go unnoticed by us and our guests; so many of them asked if we actually knew each other prior to the wedding and if you were a guest due to your warmth and friendliness and how clear it was that it was more than just a job to you.

We loved the way you went round to every table and put all of our guests at ease and broke the ice for tables who may not have all known each other.

It’s a credit to you how many selfies we have been sent of you and guests who are now desperate to book you for their future weddings!

The bouquet game was hilarious and we loved seeing so many of our guests roaring with laughter and pointing at each other, and reading the pearls of wisdom the next morning was both very amusing and emotional (depending on the guest!).

We loved the way you integrated everything so seamlessly, and really helped make our wedding run so smoothly and stay stress-free.

The music itself was simply perfect; chosen so cleverly for every part of the day.

From meeting you for the first time at a Gaynes Park wedding fair, visiting your home for our initial meeting, talking through every step before the wedding to the actual day, you have just been incredible and we will be forever grateful for how special you made our wedding journey. Thank you doesn’t seem enough but…thank you.

Take care and please keep in touch!

Hi Terry,

I’ve been putting off writing this email for a while, because I don’t quite know how to put into words our gratitude for all you did for us in the lead up to our big day & on the day itself.

Quite simply, we don’t think our wedding would have been quite the same without you! You went above & beyond the call of duty & we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend you to anyone for your DJ or Master of Ceremony services.

As you know, I in particular was very stressed leading up to the wedding due to problems we were having with our venue with communication & with the timeline for the day. You took the time to speak to us on numerous occasions to find out exactly what we wanted for our day, guiding us with your wealth of knowledge & experience. You then stepped in & communicated with the venue directly, so that the stress was completely taken out of my hands. After knowing that you were dealing with the situation, I felt completely at ease & it made such a difference having that weight off my mind when there was so much else to deal with in those last few weeks.

On the day itself, you arrived early & came to see me & I genuinely felt that you were as excited as us to be sharing in the occasion.
Throughout the day you were on hand for anything we needed or any questions we had. You spoke to the guests & made them feel welcome, you co-ordinated everyone for pictures & ensured that we had all of the group shots we wanted, you communicated with our bridesmaids & ushers wherever necessary & generally did anything that was needed so that our day ran smoothly. Even when the pianist got up & left 30 minutes before he was due to during the wedding breakfast, you immediately stepped in with some background music so that the atmosphere was maintained.

The evening party was fantastic, because you made sure that there was something for everyone. You intuitively knew when to play what songs, without us needing to say a thing. We’re also thankful that you slipped those extra couple of songs in at the end when no-one wanted to leave, despite disapproving glares from the venue!

Throughout the day so many of our guests commented on how fantastic you were, from the day guests who you co-ordinated & managed in an entertaining way, to the evening guests who you greeted at the door & welcomed to our reception. Everyone kept asking ‘who is Terry’, and were shocked to be told ‘Terry is our DJ’!

You did all of this with a huge smile on your face. In fact, I can’t remember a single time during the whole day seeing you without a smile on your face. Your passion for the job is clear for everyone to see.

You were a negotiator, an organiser, a host and most of all an entertainer & we can’t thank you enough for all you did for us.

Hi Terry,

My husband and I can’t thank Terry enough for making our big day come together so smoothly in his role as the Masters of Ceremony and also our Wedding DJ ensuring the guests had the most amazing day to remember.

From our initial consultation with Terry over 6 months prior to our wedding, we knew we had come across someone we could trust wholeheartedly on our big day.

Terry has such a passion for Weddings, not just music and being a regular DJ but being someone that genuinely takes joy in making your special day even more special by connecting our friends and family.

We had so many people come up to us during our wedding day to ask who this friend of ours was as, Terry had given everyone such a warm welcome and helped the day run smoothly, building up the atmosphere and the mood of the party as the day went by and putting it into full swing and by just ensuring everyone was having a good time and enjoying themselves.

As an MC, Terry was also brilliant. He was able to really bring the crowd together whether that be setting the scene for our wedding guests on arrival before our marriage ceremony, to our entrance for our wedding reception or even for his build up and great introductions before each speech before sending our guests into full elation before our first dance Terry was truly amazing!

Thanks once again and hopefully you can host Weddings of our friends and family for years to come!!!! We can’t recommend you enough!!!

Best Regards,
San & Maria x

 

 



Hi Terry
Just a quick email to Thank you so much for providing such a brilliant night of music at our wedding back in May 26th, at Moreves Barn.
Everyone had the most amazing time and we’ve had so many people say how brilliant you were! You got people up on the dance floor who we didn’t even think would be up dancing, and Andy and I just had the most wonderful time!
We will be recommending you to anyone and everyone who is looking for a DJ and hopefully one day we will throw another big enough party to have you there for that too!
I have attached a few photographs from our wedding photographer Gemma Giorgio too… thought you may like to see them / use them if you ever need to!
Thanks again so much. You were amazing!
Love Georgia and Andy Folkes x

 

 

 


Hi Terry,

Thank you Terry for making our wedding an outstanding one. My wife and I were really impressed with your professionalism and how you made everyone enjoy the day (from the Pearls of Wisdom, to the speeches, to the first dance and more).

You were amazing both as the Master of Ceremony and as DJ. We couldn’t have asked for better.

You were so amazing that some of our guests thought the MC was a different person to the DJ and had good compliments for both personalities.

The venue manager also had kind words to say about your performance.

I for one am thankful that you understand music, your selection was a fantastic boost for me, my groomsmen as well as our guests.

You played music suitable for every age-group and ensured everybody had fun.

Kim and I wish you all the best and more awards for your outstanding performance.

Best regards,

Edafe and Kim
