ADAM AND AMY'S wedding | Yarra Valley Lodge | Chirnside Park

G'day kwenda

We just got back from the honeymoon, sorry for the late reply

We had a great night, you were brilliant and lots of people commented how good the night was and how heaps of people were dancing etc 
I was concerned that the types of people we had at the wedding we may have had an empty dance floor most of the night but most people got up and had a dance, even I did, and I'm a self confessed stick in the mud when it comes to dancing lol even Amy doesn't really dance in public too much but I saw her dancing away and having a ball. 

I was going to ask if there was a review site I could write a nice review for you, or if you like, I can write one up in an email for you to use on your site. 

I must confess, that prior to booking you, we had a young guy (dj) visit us and I couldn't stand him and Amy quite liked him, long story short, every time I did a Google search for a great wedding DJ your name kept appearing and I put my foot down and booked you way back when. I remember Amy saying she wasn't sure about you because we couldn't meet you until a couple weeks out from the wedding, but after the wedding I knew I got the right guy and she agrees. 

Your MC work was great too, as in I thought you spoke well when you had too, and engaged the crowd, but when it was time to get the music going again it was already playing. Your clearly a professional and take the stress out planning a night like that. Oh and the music fit the bill perfectly.

We had a great night, the venue worked out and thanks to you all our friends had a great time. 

Thanks once again mate, 

Kind regards Adam

John and Rachel's wedding | Inglewood Estate | Kangaroo Ground

Hi DJ Kwenda,

I don't know if you remember doing our wedding over 5 years ago now (Rachel and John at Inglewood Estate on the 24th of April 2010) I know it's very overdue but I just wanted to say how amazing you were at our wedding, without even asking, you knew exactly what music to put on to get everyone up and dancing.  To this day everyone tells us how much fun they had at our wedding.

Thank you so much for helping to make it a totally unforgettable night and for obviously loving what you do.

Rachel.

Alister and ally's wedding | the park | albert park

Hi Kwenda Ally and I just wanted to send a quick thank you for Dj'ing at our wedding on Saturday.

I must say, you got the place rocking. There were plenty of complements from our guests, and we were amazed that you managed to get our parents up dancing.

Also, we will make sure that you are recommended to any of our friends should they require a DJ.

Thanks again, and all the best Cheers

Alister and Ally

Hi Kwenda!

I was just doing a search for something in my e-mail and found this e-mail from November, I must have missed it whilst I was on honeymoon!!!

You had DJ'd at our wedding after party at Kaz Reitops Dirty secrets in Smith street.

We all had a really amazing night and the music was spot on, wished we could do it all again!!! I'll be very happy to recommend you to any of my friends looking for a DJ for a function!! Will see if we have any photo's that I can send through!!

Thanks, Lara

Bianca and Adam's Wedding | RIvers Edge Events | Melbourne

Hi Kwenda,

Thank you so much for Sat night, we had a blast. We honestly had at least 30-40 people tell us on the night how good the music was, and I think the fact that the dance floor was full the entire night speaks for itself! The music really catered to everyone's taste and really add the night. I'm so glad we booked you.

Our professional photos are due to be printed in our 4 weeks, once we get the disc we will send trough some pics.

Won't hesitate to recommend you to anyone getting married or having a party.

Warm regards from New York (honeymoon!)

Bianc & Adam

 

Peter and Paula Wedding | Brighton Baths | Brighton

Hi Kwenda,

Monday night was just awesome – you did an amazing job! 

We will be on our honeymoon until mid-next week but will be sure to give you some positive feedback, etc, once we get back.

Thanks again for helping make our night so memorable.

Best wishes,

Peter and Paula

 

Dallas and MelaniE's Wedding | Yarra Yarra Golf Course | Moorabin

Hi Kwenda,

Dal and I just wanted to thank you for doing such a great job on the music at the wedding. We had such a great time dancing, and so many people commented on the night that they had never seen so many people on the dancefloor after a bridal dance. The only complaint I had from people was that the night ended and they had to stop dancing! Guests are still commenting a week on to me about how great you are so it's good that you will not be forgotten in a hurry!

Thanks again,

Mel and Dallas

 

Tristan and Kirsty's Wedding | Chapter House | Melbourne

Hey Kwenda,

Just a note to say thanks again for all your great work at our wedding and for putting up with our various unmixable music requests!

Cheers

Tristan

 

Tamara and Andy's Wedding | Royal Botanical Gardens | Melbourne

Hi Kwenda,

We would just like to say a HUGE thank you for the job you did for our wedding!!!

We're still laughing at all the funny moments at our reception which was caused by your music; the spontaneous Dirty Dancing performed by 2 of my husband's friends, all of our guests singing along to That's Amore during their main meal, and even our elder guests doing the Harlem Shake!!!

You played the perfect mix of genres and we have never been to a wedding where there have so many guests, of all ages, on the dance floor. Your enthusiasm for the music was contagious and made people want to dance.

So many people commented on how great the DJ was, and asked where we found you! Its so difficult to find a DJ who makes sure they take a personal interest in the wedding, most services just send out a DJ from their list who's available on the night which is why I made 5 other enquiries before talking to you and knowing id found the right one!

You'll be the first DJ we'll call for future events and we couldn't highly recommend you enough for other peoples weddings.

Thankyou so much!!!

Tam and Andy

 

Sello and Veronica's Wedding | Royal Melbourne Yacht Squadron | St Kilda

KWENDA!!!!

How are you?

So sorry it has taken so long to get back to you. We got back to London the week after the wedding and both straight back into work. I don't know where the time has gone!

We had an amazing wedding and could not believe just how fast it went (even though everyone told us it would). We thought you did a brilliant job and had quite a few guests telling us so as well. I feel like I could have kept dancing another 3 hours. Really, it was awesome!!

Hope all is well,

Veronica and Sello

 

Marc and Claire's Wedding | butleigh wootton | Kew

Hi Kwenda

A belated but heartfelt thank you for the fabulous atmosphere you created at our wedding on 8 October.  We had a wonderful night, and were so relaxed knowing that the all-important music was in your experienced hands.

We really appreciated your laid back but professional approach.  When we met you during the week before the wedding, we immediately knew that we had made the right choice.  It was great to know that we could relax and leave you to read the crowd and play the music that would keep them on the dance floor. 

We have great memories of our entry to the room, our botched bridal waltz (have you ever seen one as bad!?!), the impromptu Scottish dance to the Proclaimers, Marc’s hilarious choice for the throwing of the garter, and all the fun times in between.

Thank you so, so much for taking charge and creating the night we had hoped for. 

Best regards,

Marc and Claire

 

Kristen and Warren's Wedding | riva | St Kilda

Hi Kwenda!

Sorry for the late reply, we were away last week and only just are getting back into the swing of normal life again ;-)

We both just want to say a huge THANK YOU for your work on the night of our wedding.  Our guests are still raving about the awesome HOT DJ!! haha

Seriously, you had the dancefloor packed when it was still daylight for 5 hours straight, with a great mix of music for everyone.

Your vibe and personality was noticed by all, you were totally in the moment and it was like you were a guest at the wedding that we have known for years!

We can't thank you enough for providing us with the most memorable wedding for us and our guests! 

We have been asked by so many for your details, so hopefully you get some referrals from the night.

We have a few photos which I will email through to you which you may be able to use - I'll do that separately as we are still collecting photos from everyone that was there.

So, thanks again Kwenda, we will definitely be in touch, hope you have a great Christmas!

Warren will catch up with you for that game of golf too!!! ;-)

Nikki and Shane's Wedding | Riva | St Kilda

Hi Kwenda,

Here is why we chose you, and why will hire you at our next party, ANYTIME!!!!!!!!!!!

I rang one other person for a quote before I got to speak to you. As soon as I spoke to you on the phone, I just knew you would be brilliant. I stopped ringing after I spoke to you.

You were fun, honest and helpful.  Whenever I spoke to you, nothing was a problem.

Then at the wedding……… you were brilliant. You were on the ball, liaised with our band (who also rated you) so well.

The music was perfect for us: - people kept coming up to us during the night, saying “the music is wicked” I replied, I knew DJ Kwenda would deliver!!!”

If any one is thinking of hiring a DJ who can read a crowd, and pump out the right music: YOU ARE THE MAN. They will not be disappointed. (If they are, get them to ring me!)

Our friends expected a party, they got one. Your ability to read us, and play the right music facilitated this for the whole night.

Thank you, Thank You, Thank you.

Love Nikki & Shane.

PS: You handle can handle all sorts of guests at weddings, without an issue. I love that too!!!

All the best to you DJ Kwenda.

 

Adam and Carly's Wedding | Parkview Hotel | Melbourne

Hi Kwenda,

Thanks for your email.

We would gladly provide you with positive feedbak. You did everything we asked and more on our special day. Once one person got up on the dancefloor it was never empty for the rest of the night. Both Adam and myself had a perfect day/night and feedback from our guests have said that it was the best wedding they had been to. Thank you for being fun and enterainingn and not just standing in the corner looking miserable. Everybody loved the music and your selections.

Again, thank you for making our night something special and I will most definately recommend you to my family and friends in need of entertainment.

Thanks Kwenda.

Cheers, Carly & Adam

 

Nicole and Gregs Wedding | Rippon Lea Estate | Elsternwick

Hi Kwenda

We have just arrived home from our honeymoon and I wanted to thank you for a wonderful night at our wedding reception.

We were so very impressed as everything we had discussed just ran so smoothly.

We had many guests comment on how good the music was and how good it was that everyone was up and dancing! They also said how great you were when they were requesting songs. Also the lights look amazing in our photos!

I do have a favour to ask though (happy to pay) I need another CD made as the church has misplaced our original one. Could you make me a CD with the following songs – I have added quite a few so the videographer can use them for our wedding video.

If you can, send me some of your business cards for my guests too....

Thanks again for a fantastic night, I will be definitely calling you when I have any other events!

Thanks again...... :) Nicole

 

rach and heath's wedding | riva | st kilda

Dear Kwenda,

Thankyou sooooo much for the fantastic job you did at our wedding. You picked up on the mood and atmosphere that we were trying to create and went with it so smoothly. Everybody commented on our ‘cool’ DJ and the great range of songs that were played. As you could probably tell, Heath and I also had a fantastic time which is probably why I barely left the dance floor and why Heath couldn’t let go of the microphone singing along to all his favourite songs!

So thankyou once again Kwenda for making our day perfect. Thankyou for also being so readily available and organised leading up to the event. We would highly recommend you to anyone who needed a brilliant DJ! Until our next function where a DJ is needed……………………

Best wishes!

Mr and Mrs ROBERTS!

 

Tara and Chris's Wedding | Ballara Receptions | Eltham

Megan and Rob's wedding | Flemington Racecourse | Flemington

Hi Kwenda,

Thanks very much for your email. Megan and I are very sorry that we haven't been in touch earlier - there was only a small amount of post-wedding relaxation before we were back to work, then Christmas festivities, and then more craziness at work.

We had a brilliant time at our wedding reception, and a large part of this was due to the entertainment provided by yourself and Patrick. The mood was fantastic throughout the night, with the music just perfect at every stage. The early tunes created a relaxed yet festive feel, and the music progressed seamlessly to tracks that got everyone dancing.

It was great how well you could read the crowd - several of our guests commented about how much they enjoyed the music throughout the night, with people of all ages noting how their favourite tracks were played. Thank you for tailoring the playlist to exactly what we wanted - Bon Jovi, John Farnham and The Potbelleez were all massive, and the absence of the Grease Megamix, Nutbush, and Chicken Dance was really appreciated! We will certainly recommend you to anyone looking for a quality DJ.

Thanks so much again! With lots of love from Megan and Rob
