Celebrations with Alan Marshall Full Description
Alan Marshall is the National Wedding DJ of the Year (2019) and with over three decades’ experience working with couples to create their dream wedding days, he understands that every celebration is as unique as the couple themselves. For Alan, it’s more than just about music and dancing. As a DJ and host, it’s about creating and highlighting magical moments that tap into the emotion of the day, for the newlyweds and their loved ones to remember long after the first dance (or Nanna wows everyone with her rendition of YMCA!). It’s about establishing flow using natural transitions, to bring different parts of the day together, without the couple having to worry about what comes next or what needs to be done. Having worked on hundreds of weddings over the last thirty years, Alan prides himself on effortlessly leading the celebrations, authentically and naturally, with all the attention on the real reason everyone is together: celebrating the loved-up couple! In the run-up to the big day, Alan’s on-hand to help with not only planning music choices but also giving reception game ideas, speech advice and even to retell your love story so far (guaranteed to get guests giggling and dabbing their eyes with hankies simultaneously). He loves working with a select number of couples every year to uncover what’s important to them and help them to create a beautiful, memorable wedding day filled with love, laughter and great music! To find out how Alan can help you to create the day of your dreams, contact him today!

Not only a great DJ and MC, but helpful wedding adviser
Alan was Master of Ceremonies and DJ at our New Year's Eve wedding and was absolutely fantastic! Our wedding would not have been the same without him. His DJ Set was brilliant and really got the party going. However, not only did Alan and his son ensure that the day ran smoothly, but his support and advice throughout our wedding planning process was invaluable. If we were to do it all again, one of the first things I would do is hire Alan, and I'd recommend anyone else planning a wedding to do the same. Not only will you end up with a brilliant DJ and MC, but you will have someone that can help guide you through the process and put together a great wedding!

A true Professional that loves their work. Amazing Addition to our Wedding
Me and Gemma Mansfield Recently had Celebrations with Alan Marshall provide our evening music and entertainment at our Wedding and couldn't recommend them highly enough. From the beginning of the process Alan has been extremely easy to work with, and provided amazing advice and guidance that have clearly been developed over many years within the industry. When it came down to the day, Alan was almost immediately set up, without any impact to our wedding breakfast, and before we knew it our evening was rocking away. With a mixed age group, and music tastes, Alan navigated this ensuring that everyone had a great time and also a memorable evening. Thank you for providing such a reassuring presence and a great evening for us!

Unforgettable Magical Wedding
Alan made our day unforgettable, we are so overwhelmed with how amazing the day went. It was the best day of our lives! And we cannot thank Alan enough. Just knowing Alan was at the venue in the morning making sure everything was ready. He was like a guardian angel looking over us the entire day. The day was faultless the music, the love story, the shoe game, arranging for my husband to serenade me, to getting everyone up dancing. It was all like a dream.

It was a decision we did not regret at all!
Natalie and I got married back in August this year and chose Alan to be our Master of Ceremonies and DJ. It was a decision we did not regret at all! Many of our guests complimented how professional and nice he was throughout the day, which was great to hear. The day was perfect and ran so smoothly; we did not worry about a thing, which is all you can ask for from a Mater of Ceremonies! Alan also had contacts in other related services such as dance floors, photo booths etc which was very handy when organising such an important event. We would definitely recommend Alan to any of our friends getting married in the future! Thanks,​ Alan
