Tony Poole Discos Full Description
Tony Poole Discos provide professional, experienced DJs, top quality mobile discos, singers, ambience uplighting, backdrops, dance floors, giant LOVE letters & numbers, and photo booths in Essex, Herts, London and beyond! Our CV is impressive! We have played at some of the South East’s finest venues such as Buckingham Palace, The Ritz, Grosvenor House, The Dorchester, Kew Gardens, Down Hall, Hanbury Manor, Luton Hoo and The Park Lane and Regents Park Hiltons, for the likes of Princes William and Harry, The England Rugby World Cup Squad, The Labour Party, and the Daily Mirror. And we have been on stage with Alexandra O’Neal, The Drifters, Heatwave, Mike Read and Barbra Windsor to name but a few. We have more Google reviews (over 200) than any other similar company in Essex or Herts, something we are very proud of. And that’s probably because, above all else, we keep our finger on the pulse where our clients’ wishes are concerned. It’s your once in a lifetime day and we feel we are here to enhance it. We have a wealth of experience yet still have a passion and enthusiasm for what we do. We are well versed in linking wedding days articulately and as part of our all day service, we normally set up before your guests arrive so they see none of it, control the ceremony music, act as compere making all appropriate announcements throughout the day (including introducing the speeches) and play background music while you eat!! Then, as we are already set up, we are all systems go to launch the party. Let’s face it, this is the part of the day when all the formalities are over and you want everyone to celebrate. The importance of playing the right music cannot be underestimated. People talk for years after about wedding days and sadly “a bad DJ” is often a topic of conversation. So be safe and book us, for the ultimate party experience on your special day!

The dance floor was never empty
Thanks so much for a fantastic night, the dance floor was never empty at any point. Communication with Tony was clear and quick. Benn played songs almost entirely from our playlist and they were expertly mixed. We had lots of compliments from people on the music. We paid extra for the up lighting which was well worth it to help create the party atmosphere, what a night!

His countdown to the first dance of the newly weds is brilliant
Tony is the go to DJ and sets the bar so high you’ll be hard pushed to find a better DJ for your party. Super easy to deal with, professional, flexible, reads the room and knows exactly what to play to keep everyone on the dance floor. His countdown to the first dance of the newly weds is brilliant. You will not have to worry about your guests standing on the edge of the dance floor with Tony, especially when he plays Zorbas dance! Having just had a fantastic wedding celebration, we are looking for excuses to have another party and book Tony again!! Thank you Tony.

We had to make a conscious effort to take a break from dancing to chat with guests
Book Tony. Just do it, he will get your guests on the dancefloor Tony DJ'd our wedding and we can honestly say that the dancefloor was packed start to finish. So many of our guests have said since that it was one of the best parties they've ever been to at a wedding, with every age group catered for. Nothing cliched (i.e. definitely *not* the DJ from Love Actually), instead he dropped plenty of classic tunes mixed with more contemporary chart hits. We had to make a conscious effort to take a break from dancing to chat with guests or get a drink, which is usually the sign of a great DJ Hiring a DJ is such a tricky thing to do, and it was one of the things I (groom) was most sensitive about as I wanted everyone to enjoy themselves and have a good old boogie. Even if the rest of the day is impeccable, if the DJ is only ok it can make the whole event a bit average... I am *so* glad we went with Tony in the end - I was a sweaty mess by the last tune, as were loads of others, so don't hesitate: get him booked.

Will Definitely Use Tony Poole Discos Again
A fabulous night of great music, dancing & fun. Set up was the day before the event (wedding reception) as the hall was available. No problems fitting in with our time allocation. On the day, the mood lighting was perfect, Murat our DJ was excellent and equipment was taken down quickly at the end of the evening. Excellent communication before and after the event. Will definitely use Tony Poole Discos again.

Frequently Asked Questions
(10)

What is your most memorable wedding?

There have been simply so many, but if you pinned me down, it would have to be one where we played an instrumental version of the chosen first dance and two primary school aged children beautifully sang the lyrics. There was not a dry eye in the house!!!

Describe your style in 5 adjectives.

Professional, perfectionist, calm, understated, feelgood

What about your business are you most proud of?

That we get repeat bookings from clients who first used us 30 years ago

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

Remember it's your day

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

Children singing to the couple

Describe your typical process with a couple.

Very simple. We talk (old fashioned I know!) to make sure couples get exactly what they want, agree a price, I send a reservation form, they email back confirming the booking, then nearer the day they send a musical wish list and then during the week of the wedding a final contact to check on all the arrangements. We are repeatedly told how thorough and prepared we are and how reassured this makes couples feel.

What makes a romantic first dance?

It doesn't have to be romantic. A First Dance is a personal choice for any reason at all

What is your number one floor-filler?

Varies from year to year, audience to audience. But if there was one I had to pick, that has been the most floor filling, it is probably Robin S - Show Me Love

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

The Beatles. They were simply huuuuuuuuuge! And so much of what they did has stood the test of time.

What is the soundtrack to your life?

A question I would rather not answer. The DJ is there for the clients and their guests. A wedding day is not about the DJ, although many in my profession think otherwise!
