Sound, lighting and tech support for Show Me Love

Two weddings and a milestone birthday party — this time on the rig rather than the decks, providing sound, lighting and technical support for the Show Me Love production.

A different hat on this run of dates: two weddings and a milestone birthday party, all spent providing sound, lighting and tech support for Show Me Love.

The clip here is from the birthday. There was a live act on stage, so the desk was running far more than background music — the band, the radio mics, the playback and the lighting, all mixed from the same position while the room partied.

It is a different discipline to DJing — you are there to make someone else's show look and sound its best — but the preparation is the same. Get the rig in early, test everything twice, and have it all running long before the first guest walks in.

The last of the 2026 weddings, milestone birthdays and Show Me Love

The last of the big weddings for 2026, a run of milestone birthday parties, and a night on sound and lighting for the Show Me Love team.

It has been a very busy few weeks. The last of the big weddings for 2026 are now behind me, mixed in with a run of milestone birthday parties — and, in between the two, a night running sound and lighting for a good set of friends.

The weddings took me from a beamed Essex barn to a hotel function room with a white starlit floor. Different rooms, the same job: get the rig in early and quietly, light it to match the scheme, and have everything set long before the first guest walks in.

The milestone birthdays were the other half of it. Marquees under star cloth, mirror balls and balloon arches, and the sort of crowd who are on the floor from the first track and stay there.

Here are a few pictures and clips taken behind the desk and the booth — the rooms before the doors opened, the first dances, and the floors that followed.

Aryan & Molly at Pembroke College, Cambridge

A closed college, an exclusive venue, and a crowd who simply would not leave the dance floor.

This weekend I had the privilege of performing at the wedding of Aryan and Molly at Pembroke College, Cambridge — a very exclusive venue, and a closed one during term time, so it is a rare opportunity to play there at all.

The celebration had everything you could want from a wedding. A lovely venue and a beautiful room, a fun-filled first dance, and a proud dad doing his thing with a pre-planned dance that had the whole room watching.

Then the party crowd took over. They stayed on the floor and partied all night long — the kind of room that makes the job easy. This was a joy to perform at. They were there to party, and they meant it.
