1st Dance Events

Wedding DJ, Bespoke Themed DJ Booths, DJ & Sax Duos, High Quality Sound System, Controlled Lighting Setup, Starlit Dancefloors, Light Up Letters & Numbers. Formed and owned by Jay, 1st Dance Events is a family run business providing the ultimate entertainment package to your event throughout Essex & Suffolk. Recommended by many and totally dedicated to nothing but the Wedding & Corporate Event industry, we pride ourselves on not being your average ‘Fifty Quid Sid’s Roadshow!’ Often, a DJ is sometimes the last thing thought about when planning a wedding. We totally understand that the ceremony, venue, dress and suits come first but why leave planning the guy/girl that’s hosting often the most memorable part of the day ‘til last? Too often, we see happy couples experience the most amazing day followed up by a somewhat mediocre night hosted by a dj who ‘does this every night’, whacks on the ‘housework playlist’, makes little to no effort to keep the party on it’s toes and adds no personalisation to the night. This is supposed to be the best day of your lives, not an average night out that could be repeated and improved next week! Jay is a devoted family man and dad of two partnered by Leanne. Working his way up from the bottom hosting small family gatherings to larger parties, private functions, school proms, long-term residencies in pubs/clubs and weddings, Jay has gained a wealth of experience for over 12 years in the industry. With every occasion different, Jay has played to a huge variation of crowds of all ages gaining skills and understanding in all music tastes and genres. Huge amounts of effort is put into the design and theme of a wedding, why should the DJ not contribute too? From floral to rustic, we have 4 totally unique to us, different themed DJ booths to choose from to not only blend in but ultimately provide the perfect centre piece to any Wedding. Better still, all of our dj booths come at absolutely no extra cost to our quoted prices!
