No better DJ about. We and all our guests absolutely loved Ryan and his music. He had the venue rocking from start to finish. A night we will always remember and cherish. Thank you Ryan for making our special day that bit extra special.

We couldn't have picked a better DJ for our wedding day. Ryan was absolutely fantastic. He fully understood us and what music we wanted. It definitely made our day to see all our family and friends ending the night in style. Memories that will last a lifetime. Thank you Ryan.

We couldn’t have asked for a better DJ than Ryan from Impress Events. He worked seamlessly with our venue (Tapyard, Hoults Yard, Newcastle) and helped us create the exact first dance moment we’d dreamed of—even editing the song to shorten it perfectly. Ryan kept the energy high and the dance floor full all night. He even made space for a surprise “dog dance” that my best friend requested, and our must plays were peppered into the mix perfectly! He was always easy to get in touch with, understood our vibe right away, and truly delivered the perfect soundtrack for our celebration. The lighting provided helped set the mood, and helped with our photo corner too! We danced the night away, and our guests had an incredible time too. Thanks again, for making our evening unforgettable!

Ryan was a fantastic wedding DJ. He listened to the types of music that we liked (a combination of classic wedding disco, pop and alternative) and seamlessly integrated them all including some ‘definite’ songs we had. Ourselves and guests had a wonderful time at the wedding and the dance floor was never empty for five hours thanks to Ryan! Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him, an excellent DJ. Professional and didn’t miss with song choices, thank you so much!

Hi Heather,
Thank you so much for the lovely review! I had such a brilliant time DJing your wedding, the mix of classic disco, pop, and alternative tunes worked perfectly with your crowd. Having the dance floor packed for five hours straight was incredible, and I’m so glad you and your guests had such a great night. I really appreciate you having me there and it was an absolute pleasure!
Best wishes,

We booked Ryan for our wedding at Runa farm, and he was nothing short of amazing! He completely nailed the tone of the evening — reading the crowd perfectly and keeping everyone on the dance floor. He took us on a musical journey from Dolly to Evanescence, letting us all relive our teenage years in the best way possible. We wanted a more alternative DJ and Ryan did not disappoint. After the wedding, so many of our guests told us how much they loved the DJ — everyone had an incredible time! Ryan truly made the evening unforgettable. Highly recommend!

We couldn’t have found a better DJ for our wedding! From start to finish, Ryan was absolutely brilliant — friendly, professional, and completely on the ball. He catered to all our picky requests and perfected the music on the night! The lights were spot on too, exactly what we were after, and our guests were complimenting him all night. We honestly couldn’t have asked for more — highly recommended!

Dan Jenkins 2025.10.29

     

Ryan was our DJ in July this year for our wedding at Grantley Hall, and wow what a day! From start to finish he made everything so easy for us. He got in touch before the wedding to go through everything in detail and even made suggestions we hadn’t thought about that worked perfectly on the day. You can tell he’s done thousands of weddings because the whole thing ran so smoothly, and he just gets the whole flow of a night so easily. The dance floor was full from the first dance to the very last song. Every generation was up dancing with us and even the people we never thought we’d see on the floor were loving it. Ryan, you honestly made our night special, thank you very much for that! You will have a lifetime of recommendations from us!

Ryan did an absolutely brilliant job DJ'ing at our wedding. Once booked we arranged a call, and as soon as we spoke, I knew we were in safe hands. He was very professional, and asked about our music preferences, but was full of suggestions on what works well. He did a great job and the dance floor was full all night, across all ages. I've since had loads of compliment about how good the music was. So many people were dancing that I haven't seen dance for years. Even my brother - nothing short of a miracle!

Thank you so much, Tania! From our call I knew your night would be special, and I’m glad the planning made everything feel easy. I loved seeing the dance floor full across all ages, and hearing that even your brother got up to dance made my night. Really appreciate all the lovely compliments from your guests too. Thanks for having me!

Ryan, what a DJ! You absolutely smashed it from start to finish and we can’t thank you enough! The music was non-stop bangers all night, and when you threw in a Christmas song for us, we loved every second!💃🎄 Your communication in the lead up to our wedding day was amazing and you really took the time to understand our likes (and dislikes!). You created the perfect playlist, that kept everyone dancing! All of our guests even commented on how incredible your mixes were. The fact we even got an encore at the end of the night, is something we’ll remember forever! 🙌 Your setup and lighting made the barn look stunning and you brought the perfect vibe from start to finish. We honestly can’t thank you enough for making our evening reception everything we hoped for! You were incredible and we can’t recommend you enough!🎶🪩

Ryan was amazing! We couldn’t have asked for a better DJ for our special day. We had a call with Ryan a few days before the wedding and spoke about what type of vibe we wanted and any songs we didn’t want and he listened to us and delivered that vibe to a tee! Couldn’t recommend him enough to anyone who is looking for a DJ to provide you exactly what you want and make that special day even more amazing.

We can’t thank Ryan enough for being part of our big day, his expertise and choices of music were exactly what we wanted! I, the bride, barely left the dance floor all night and everyone commented on how much they loved the music choices. We worked closely with Ryan before the wedding to ensure he knew what we liked and this really showed through the set he produced. Also, where possible and appropriately Ryan put our guests music request into his set, which was great.

Ryan recently DJ'd at our wedding. We wanted the dance floor to be full all night with songs that we both love and he achieved exactly that. So many guests commented on how amazing Ryan was and how fun the dance floor was. It was exactly what we imagined the reception of our wedding to be and couldn't recommend him more. Thanks again Ryan

All bangers all night!! We couldn't be happier with our experience with Ryan as our wedding DJ! From the start, he was incredibly friendly, chill, and easy to work with. We asked for a wide variety of music to get everyone on the dance floor, from our parents/ older guests but also songs for age group too, and he nailed the brief perfectly! The dance floor was packed all night and Ryan read the room and kept the energy going perfectly So many of our guests told us he was the best wedding DJ they’ve ever seen (we couldn’t agree more). A lovely bonus: Ryan even took some candid photos of us dancing at the end of the night. Our photographer had left and our guests were a bit too tipsy to capture anything usable—so having those extra pictures was really nice! We can’t recommend Ryan enough. If you’re looking for the perfect wedding DJ, he’s the one!
