About Darren:

Darren is a High Quality Wedding DJ and Wedding Entertainment Specialist, however he is also equally at home working a corporate event or private party.

Darren has always had a great passion for music, and as a boy would look up at a Disco and know that it was something he wanted to do.

It was for his sisters wedding where he offered to provide the Disco using some hired equipment that really gave him his first experience doing his Dream Occupation. Well that really gave Darren the bug and it was not long after, that he was fully kitted out with the latest equipment and working at all styles of events. 

Within a couple of years Darren had made it onto the club circuit playing at the now legendary London Limelight Club as twice weekly resident DJ. 

Although Darren has worked at some fantastic venues, it was the mobile disco that really was where his heart was.

Today Darren still gets a buzz from seeing the guests dancing and smiling on the floor, and helping to make the bride and grooms or party host have that once in a lifetime event.

At home Darren is a Husband to wife Iva and a proud father to daughters Kimberley and Lucy, and would describe himself as a very happy family man!.

Darren has a buzz for life, and a passion for delivering high customer service. Darren believes this is the key to his success.

Brian Connor, 50th Party, Croydon
Matt, Once again you have come up trumps with DJ Darren and the Elvis act that you arranged for my wife’s 50th Party on Saturday night. The arrangement DJ and Disco with the LED dance floor and lighting System were amazing and the Elvis act was the icing on the cake with everybody’s comments being of high praise . Both Elvis and Darren had the dance floor busy and once again many thanks for supplying your service and acts for another memorable night. Unfortunately it’s going to be quiet for a year or two but  “I'LL BE BACK"!

Genevieve Baldwin, Wedding, Basingstoke
Hi Darren / Matt, Thank you so much for yesterday. Music was fantastic and you helped create an amazing atmosphere. Many thanks!

Alana and Lee Cashmore, Wedding, The Moat House, Reading, Berkshire
Hi Matt, I would just like to say how fantastic Darren was at our wedding which was at the Moat house. He arrived early and set up very quickly. My partner spoke to him about the music and he changed some music which we didnt like. So many people commented on what a great DJ he was throughout the night. He listened to everything we wanted and put them on in a great order, the dance floor was always packed. I would like you to pass on to him how grateful I am to him for making our wedding so extra special and unique to us as a couple. We will be recommending him to many of our couples who are getting married in the near future. Again thank you so much for providing us wityh a great DJ who provided a unique service to us.

Andy Taylor (Father of the Bride), Wedding, Berkshire
Hi Matt, Just a note to say that Darren was fantastic at the above event – he really responded to what people liked and did very well at keeping a decent crowd on the dance floor. Please thank Darren on behalf of us all for helping make it such a memorable event. Best wishes.

Massimo Bastinelli, Wedding, London
Hi Tracey, Thank you so much for getting in touch! The day went well!! Firstly I'd like to thank you for all your help with booking our artists! You've proved extremly helpful and always ready and available when I'd needed anything! I wouldn't hestitate to use Warble or recommend them in the future. With respects to Darren, he was superb!! He stuck to our playlist, diversified when asked, and was able to gauge the audience perfectly. I'd have no hesitation to recommend his services in the future or use him myself again for any other parties.

Jamie Hustler and Douglas Campbell, Civil Partnership, Brighton
Hi Matt, Just a quick email to let you know how happy we were with Darren and the service in general from yourself. What we were expecting was a 'cheesy wedding' DJ. What we got in Darren was an intelligent talented approachable guy who through his skill and experience managed to keep the dance floor busy all night!!! From the moment we first spoke to you we knew we were in safe hands. Thanks to you and Darren and if we ever get married again we would be more than happy to use you both!!!!

Brian Connor, 50th Birthday Party, Croydon
Matt, many thanks for the email, and I would like to take this opportunity to praise both Stephen and Darren for there first class performance. Everbody said how outstanding Stephen was with his tricks and I would highly recommend him to anyone. Unfortunately I was worst for the ware to appreciate Stephen and what I can remember was well worth the price, and Darren's set up was quite impressive. Once again Matt many thanks for arranging a memorable night. Next year its my wife's 50th? Lets see...

Brian and Chloe, Special Wedding Disco Package, Berkshire
DJ Darren was excellent. Darren played everything we asked for, and we had a brilliant evening. Please pass on our thanks to him for ensuring the evening went with a swing.

Stuart & Adele, Special Wedding Disco Package
Just a little note to say thank you for making our special day all that more special. I can't thank you enough for your services on the day, the DJ truly excellent. He was very professional and helpful, and very well presented, he made sure he spoke with us and put us at ease straight away, nothing was too much trouble for him, and he really got the party started, keeping all of our guests happy with his great selection of music - truly professional. Once again thank you very much, we will certainly be keeping you in mind for any future occasions.

Richard & Ivette, Moat House Hotel, Sindlesham, Reading
Everyone commented how fantastic the disco looked with all the lights. My old boss got a bit of a shock when the cannon shot past his ear lol! We were really impressed with Darren from start to finish. The thought of booking a DJ who will provide quality entertainment was a bit daunting to start with - there are so many to chose from. But your website helped us to see the end result and it didnt disappoint! Darren was really helpful with the song choices and managed to find the song that Ivette wanted to be played (her late step Dads favourite-) - thanks Darren. We wont hesitate in recommending your services to our friends - I do believe one of Ivettes colleagues will be booking you for next year! Thanks again for all your help.

These are the 2 packages that Darren Provides

i) Special Wedding Disco Package

Darren welcomes playlists and always make sure the dance floor is kept full. 

Your wedding day is one of the most important days of your life, that is why Darren created this Special Package to cover the whole days music in one unique package.

The Ceremony
Darren arrives at the venue to set up before your guests arrive, playing the music for your Ceremony if required. Often playing the music for the Ceremony is done by one of the venues staff or even a wedding guest, which can easily go wrong, however Darren will professionally work with your registrars to make sure the music is played at the correct times for the following important moments:

  • The entrance of the bride
  • The signing of the register
  • The exit of the bride and groom

The Drinks Reception and Wedding Breakfast
Darren will then play beautiful background music during the champagne reception and meal (creating a more relaxed and fun atmosphere).

The set up during the daytime is both compact and discrete and can fit into any size venue, keeping the room looking stunning without lights or wires showing. Darren sets up the full disco later on, ready for the first dance. 

Playing a mixture of Jazz and Classic Love Songs from the likes of Michael Buble, Jack Johnson, Eva Cassidy and Sarah McLachlan to name just a few, however Darren is also happy to play any music of your choice.

Announcements
Darren will professionally announce any key proceedings if required including the following important moments:

  • The Bride and Grooms Entrance (You might like Darren to play a special song for you as you enter the wedding breakfast room)
  • The cutting of the cake
  • The speeches
  • The 1st dance

And naturally any other announcements that may occur.

If you have booked a professional Toastmaster, then Darren will provide a microphone if required.

Speeches
Darren will provide you with a crystal clear radio microphone for use during the speeches.

First Dance
Darren will professionally announce the bride and grooms first dance as husband and wife 

Evening Disco
Darren will then supply the evening Disco to ensure your guests dance the night away in style.

This package will transform your wedding into the most memorable event that will stay with you forever. 

This wedding package represents excellent value for money.

Location
Darren mainly covers Berkshire, Surrey, Hampshire, London, the South East.

Something Different
Your wedding day is unique, and as such so is Darren's service. Darren can happily cater for your requirements if you would like something different.

For example;

  • If you do not want a general multi colour lighting show and would like something to match your colour scheme, or something more simple, then Darren can offer you a computer controlled light show that is fixed on a colour of your choice. 
A soft pink or elegant white light show looks very stunning.
  • If you do not require traditional disco lighting, Darren can offer a sophisticated and elegant light system using his led uplighting mixed with colour wash lighting to give you that modern, elegant look.

You can book the Special wedding disco package with or without Led Uplighting.

ii) Evening Disco Option

A professional DJ package with a quality light show and a sound system.

Playing a great selection of music that will guarantee to keep the dance floor busy all night long.

Darren always welcome playlists, as he know how important it is to be able to play all of your favourite songs. Darren naturally welcomes requests from your guests during the party.

 He will always professionally make any required announcements during the function, but rest assured, Darren is not the sort of DJ who likes to talk unnecessary over all of the songs!

 The light show is often described as 'Elegant' or 'Funky', using the best modern equipment. This light show is computer controlled so that Darren can easily create stunning colour lighting to match your colour scheme or enhance your venue. 

If you would prefer the light show a little more tailored Darren can offer the following;

  • If you do not want a general multi colour lighting show and would like something to match your colour scheme, or something more simple, then Darren can offer you a computer controlled light show that is fixed on any colour of your choice. 
A soft pink or elegant white light show looks very stunning.
  • If you do not require traditional disco lighting, Darren can offer a sophisticated and elegant light system using led uplighting mixed with colour wash lighting for that modern, elegant look.

You can book the Evening Disco with or without Led Uplighting.

Karaoke and Dance floors:

Darren is able to add karaoke to any of the above functions if required for a small extra fee.

Darren also provides dance floors should you require one to be added to your event. Parquet, Black and White, All White, All Black and also the Black and white, black or white twinkle dance floors with the white led twinkle lights that flash to the music - a perfect complement to any party.

  • The Special Wedding Disco Package is typically a whole day event. Darren will set up before the ceremoy until the end of the evening.
  • Darren does charge an extra fee per hour after midnight.
  • The Evening Disco is based on up to 5 hours.
