Amazing DJ
Amazing DJ! Ross was so helpful over the phone and responded very quickly on email! Our DJ for the night was DJ Andy, who did an incredible job at keeping everyone up on the dance floor until the end of the night! We had so many compliments on the DJ and his music selection. Thanks so much again for helping make our special day even more amazing!

We can't recommend him highly enough
Ross from RCT Entertainment was the DJ for our wedding in September. We can't recommend him highly enough! The setup looked fantastic, he played all the songs that we requested, and his own song choices really fit the vibe of the party. All our guests were very happy and it was a full dance floor all night!

I can't rate this company highly enough
Ross at RCT Events was amazing for our Wedding. He was super friendly and the music flowed all night. The website allowed you to pick your songs prior to the event and include dedications. I can’t rate this company highly enough. Will definitely use again. 5 star service

Exceptional Entertainment Package
We recently had the pleasure of experiencing an exceptional entertainment package from RCT at my wedding. From the DJ to the Mr & Mrs lights and the magic mirror, every element exceeded my expectations. What initially drew me to RCT were their packages offered and I must say, they did not disappoint. From the very beginning, their professionalism shone through. The DJ put together an amazing playlist, ensuring that everyone was on their feet and dancing the night away. It truly made my wedding day that much more special. Overall, RCT delivered an unforgettable experience from start to finish, and I couldn't be more delighted with their services. If you're looking for top-notch entertainment for your event, I highly recommend RCT without hesitation.

So glad i found this company
We hired RCT back in December 2023. We wanted to create a magical atmosphere. So we hire Ross as our DJ, accompanied by Dry ice, Cold Spark machines and uplighting. The atmosphere was electric all night and i can't fault Ross as a DJ. He kept me, my husband and all my guests dancing all night.

What is your most memorable wedding?

There are so many, but most memorable is performing on the Beach in Dubai. Magical!

Describe your style in 5 adjectives.

I am a very polite, confident DJ. I have been at DJ for 16 years now and have DJ'ed for so many different events including Weddings, Corporate events, Pirivate Parties and club abroad. I'm very versatile when it comes to playing music and confident on the microphone. Don't say to much and don't say to little in my motto! My music always flows throughout the evening, keeping you and your guests on the dance floor all night.

I have been in the business for 16 years and met so many people along the way. I love that my business is very personal to both me and my family. Setting it up with my Wife, Charlene has been great as she also have Wedding organiser experience. Hense the name "RCT" Ross, Charlene Thurston

What is your No. 1 wedding planning tip for couples?

Tell suppliers what your looking for and what your vision is. Don't just let them sell you something. Never go for the cheapest! Look at their background, read reviews and if they have a promo video showing them in action, even better!

What is your favourite personal touch you have seen at a wedding?

We are a family business and every Wedding is personal to us. We also send all our couples a little something in the post when booking one of our packages.

Describe your typical process with a couple.

When a bride and Groom make contact they would normally receive a personanised quote from via email. I would follow up with a phone call the following day to introduce myself and see if they have any questions. Following on from that if they would like to book a one to one meeting in person can be arranged or we can book everything over the phone or email. You will receive a unique login so you can access your event portal allowing you create playlists and timelines for the day.

What makes a romantic first dance?

Setting the scene when adding other things like our Dry Ice Machine, Cold Spark Machines or Confetti Cannons. It makes a perfect picture.

What is your number one floor-filler?

Its very over played but you can always fill a floor with Robin S - Show me Love or Whitney - I wanna dance with somebody. However every audience is different. its all about reading the crowd.

Which band from the past would you most like to have been part of?

Take That! Still going strong and they we awesome, back in the 90's.

What is the soundtrack to your life?

My favorite song is Prince - The Most Beautiful Girl in The World. Our Wedding First dance at our wedding
