Platinum Discos ultimate special offer of a multi award winning wedding Dj with a top quality mobile disco, a white led dance floor, a 3 hour photo booth hire plus up to 6 giant letters and 12 wireless mood lights all for £1,000 has to be the best deal a bride and groom could get for their wedding.

If you want to seriously impress your guests and give yourself the dream wedding then this is the package for you!

A white led dance floor provides you with an amazing wow factor and a stunning centre piece for your wedding! It’s especially good for wedding photos when you cut your wedding cake in the middle of the dance floor as in this picture at a wedding in The Principal George Hotel in Edinburgh.

Here is the official poster for the wedding “special offer”

As of 2019 I decided to improve my previous wedding special offer and make it even better value by increasing the size of the dance floor from a 16ft by 16ft to a 20ft by 20ft white led dance floor.

My white led dance floor is really beautiful. It’s regularly maintained, cleaned, polished, buffed and we take spare panels and  a spare power supply to every job we do.

As we lay the floor we do it while it’s switched on. This means as we lay it we can see that every panel is working in 4 channel mode and that every led is lit! If we find a faulty panel we swap it for another and send the panel back to the manufacturer for repair. We bring spare everything just in case.

Your safety is also of utmost importance so we put a special mat over the cable that leads to the dance floor and  make sure there are no trip hazards and that the floor is always laid perfectly.

We have rubber mats to put under our dance floor if it’s going on top of an existing wooden floor or on carpet with joins in it. This is often the case in hotels where the carpet is removed to reveal a wooden dance floor underneath.

Our UK made dance floor is the best there is. In terms of reliability, safety and it staying lit all night and not separating it’s in a class of its own. The cheaper imported floors use a different power supply where if a short circuit occurs it blows a fuse and the lights go out until the fuse is replaced by the customer!

With our floor if a temporary short circuit occurs the floor may go out momentarily but will come back on as soon as the short circuit is rectified. This can be caused by someone spilling a drink on the floor or even a hair clip slipping between two panels. It is rare but can happen. We are always on hand if problems occur to rectify it.

We want your wedding to be perfect and Our excellent customer service and communication is what we’re renowned for. It’s why brides and grooms entrust us to provide them with a variety of wedding services.

Here are a couple of examples of our beautiful highly polished stunning white led dance floor which you can hire from us either on its own or as part of this amazing wedding package.

This was taken at a wedding at The George Hotel in Edinburgh.

I also increased the photo booth hire period from 2 hours to 3 hours and my photo booth is the best there is with unlimited huge 6 inch by 9 inch prints and they are of fantastic quality.

The photo booth comes with a supervisor, 3 big boxes of props and I give you a lovely photo album and copies of your photos digitally via Dropbox. I often see brides looking through the photo album I’ve guven them at the end of their wedding reception.

The photo booth is a huge hit at weddings and you’ll get a copy of every photo taken on the night in a lovely white photo album and digitally by Dropbox too. This means you can share your photos by email and social media easily with friends or family who couldn’t cone to your wedding.

Here is a photo of my photo booth with inflatable surround. This photo was taken at a 50th birthday party in Johnstone Town Hall.

I also give you the option to hire our incredible  Fotomaster magic mirror with this wedding special offer. Once again we bought the best available and at two to three times the cost of a cheap magic mirror to buy, it was a serious investment. But it does so much including games, green screen technology, touch screen writing, awesome graphics etc.

It’s an awesome piece of kit that your wedding guests will love using!

Here are two videos from the manufacturer that will show you what it can do far better than I could explain in words.

The wedding disco you get in the £1,000 deal is my Silver package which includes a top quality 2 speaker sound system and 6-8 lights. My disco will be unlike anything you’ve seen before! It is  very neat and tidy with all the cables hidden and all my flightcases and boxes are stored away neatly underneath behind the black cloth that goes around the front of the disco stand. It’s nice to have a wedding Dj with an awesome wedding disco that looks professional and has crystal clear reliable sound.

I modified my stand by going to the manufacturer and getting some added extras added to my specification. This really improved how it looked and it’s functionality.

The speakers are attached directly to the stand which saves space and means no need to use unsteady and easily knocked over tripods which I personally don’t like.

My lights are hung from what we call an overhead bar or goalpost system which can take up to 16 lights. This gives me lots of possibilities. All the cables that provide power and control for the lights are hidden behind a custom made cloth. Surprisingly my disco stand takes up only 8ft by 4ft which is great if you’ve got a busy wedding and are short of space.

Here are a couple of photos of my disco rig. This is my Silver disco at a wedding at The Gretna Hall Hotel in Gretna Green.

 

 

As of 2019 I offer an all white wedding setup and an all black wedding setup. The price is the same for both.

The all white wedding setup has an amazing pair of EV Evolve 50 speakers which are widely renowned as being the best line array speakers currently on the market. A line array system gives you a huge benefit over a conventional speaker system as the sound travels further and is far less directional so everyone hears the music or speeches at around the same volume.

This means the Dj doesn’t have to crank up the volume to be heard over a longer distance! The sound quality from these speakers is awesome! They consist of a sub bass unit and the line array top speaker.

Here is a review of them that shows you what they can do:

If your having your wedding reception in a large venue or with more than 150 guests or you like your music with a serious bass line then you should upgrade to my awesome Gold wedding disco package which has two 18” 1050 watt subs and two 15” 1300 watt full range speakers.

You also get additional disco lighting which can include lasers, or some awesome high end lighting. The Gold package has 10-12 seriously impressive disco lights!

I believe I’m the only wedding Dj in Scotland with a mobile disco that cost me over £25,000!

Another very important aspect of your wedding is the experience of the wedding Dj. I now have 44 years experience as a professional wedding Dj and recently I’ve entered a few wedding Dj awards.

I’m pleased to say that I have made the finals of the 2019 confetti wedding awards on my first attempt and i’ve also won an award from 3 best rated and add to event.  I’ve entered the VOWS wedding awards plus another two awards too and I await the results.

Most importantly I get great customer reviews and that’s what really matters to me. The thanks from the bride and groom and their guests at the end of the night are what makes my job such a pleasure.

My disco is unlike any other in Scotland, with the very best lighting and sound, my disco not only looks amazing but it sounds incredible too! I have a reputation for filling dance floors and playing great music and being interactive, inventive and adaptable! 44 years experience really counts! I always play requests too so everyone at your wedding is catered for.

Who would you like to Dj at your wedding? Somebody with experience or a beginner?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The £1,000 wedding package deal also comes with up to six giant letters. These are hugely popular at weddings. My giant letters are 4ft tall and use led lamps that are battery powered. This means they can be put anywhere, they are far safer than 240 volt giant letters especially if they are knocked over and if children are present. They are also not overpoweringly bright! The letters are lit but they don’t light up the whole room and kill the ambiance!

Here’s my 4ft love letters:

My giant letters are always delivered in perfect working order and any scratches and scrapes are re painted on a regular basis.

My MR & MRS giant letters have white and multicoloured lamps in them and these can be set to flash. It’s quite mesmerising. I will also be buying a set of “LOVE” Letters with coloured and white lamps.

The photo below was taken in Gretna Green, Scotland’s wedding capital.

Because you have up to 6 giant letters you can have “LOVE” or  “MR & MRS” or your initials in giant letters. If you want something longer like “MR & MRS WHITE” you can have that at a nominal extra cost.

My giant letters can also be put on plinths. The reason I had plinths made is because particularly in marquess with temporary flooring the giant letters are a bit unstable. Even if you have stage weights or sandbags they can fall over.

I came up with a solution which was to make a plinth with a much wider base and a storage area hidden in the back where you could put a weight or sand bag. The giant letters all have two 10mm captive bolt holes in the bottom so they can be fixed to the plinths. This makes them incredibly stable and also elevated them off the ground making them 5ft tall.

Here is an example of some letters on their plinths:

The batteries in the giant letters last well in excess of 24 hours so you’ll never have them go out half way through your wedding or party.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I also supply “LOVE” and “MR & MRS” in 5ft heights if your looking for much bigger letters for your wedding.

The final part of the wedding package deal are my wireless mood lights. These really make any wedding venue look much better. I bought these a year or so ago and at just under £5,000 for a set of 12 and the controller and flight cases they were a serious investment. At 10 times the cost of a cheap mood light or uplight as they are also called they are expensive but they are something I use at almost every wedding as the effect is amazing. Very few Djs have these due to the cost, I’m lucky as I have two sets with a third set planned for 2019.

The key advantages to wireless mood lighting are that they can put out in less than 5 minutes. This makes them ideal for weddings where room turnaround only gives you around an hour to set up. No cables to take down, no sockets to have to look for and they are battery powered so in the event of a power cut you’ve got emergency lighting.

The other key advantage is that they are extremely controllable. You can create almost any colour and you can create different shades of that colour. They do UV (ultraviolet) light. You can dim them, strobe them, put them on a static colour or get them to change colour in sequences. If you have anyone with epilepsy or if you don’t like flashing lights they can be put on a fade pattern where the colours gently change.

To say these lights really transform a room is no exaggeration! They are without doubt my favourite light for transforming a wedding function room.

Here is a video I made that shows what these mood lights can do. This video was taken at The Huntingtower Hotel in Perth after a wedding fair that I attended.

This £1,000 deal really represents incredible value! To hire these items individually this would be their individual cost:

20ft by 20ft dance floor £600

Dj and Silver disco £450

Six 4ft tall giant letters £300

Three hour photo booth hire £400

Mood lighting £100

Total £1,850!

You get all this for £1,000! That’s a huge saving and if your on a budget for your wedding will not only save you a fortune but will make life easier as your only communicating with one supplier for all these items.

What do my customers think of this deal?

Well I just received this lovely review yesterday (12/01/19) from Kylie White whose wedding I did at Drumtochty Castle, Auchenblae last Weekend. Drumtochty Castle is a stunning wedding venue and is approximately 20 miles from Aberdeen.

Hi Ashley,

Sorry it’s been a week but I just wanted to drop you a quick email to say a MASSIVE THANK YOU for last Saturday.  Everything was just perfect.  The floor was amazing, the LED letters amazing, you as DJ and Karaoke master amazing, the mood lighting and the Photo Booth……all just absolutely fantastic.  You and Joe were both super friendly and absolutely lovely!  I’m so happy I found you.  Even Nikki asked about you and said how great it was.  The set up and amount of equipment you supplied was unreal.  You worked so hard setting up, providing a great night and then packing away!

I will be in touch again soon with a proper review!  This is just a quick one for now so you don’t think I have forgotten you or wasn’t grateful for you being there!!

If you have any photo’s from the night/set up before it started would you mind sending them to me if possible please?  I am still waiting for the professional photos and desperate for as many as I can get.

Once again, THANK YOU and be in touch again soon.

Kylie.xxx

Hi Ashley,

Will have a look at the videos shortly thank you so much.  If you could send them all to me as well I would really really appreciate that.

I will do the review on Facebook and your page tomorrow. I didn’t feel like it does justice to just how great you both were but if you are happy with it then I have no problem writing that.

The ballroom looked absolutely amazing!  It was so much better than I could have ever imagined! Everyone said about how much work you put into it.  I can’t imagine you making the lighting better, or the Photo Booth!!!  It was all absolutely perfect.  You even got Andy (the one who hid with you for some of the night) singing – not something I ever thought I would see or hear!

I hope you get to go on the potential suppliers list at Drumtocthy now?  Although I guess Nikki gave your new booking your details.  She did ask me what you were called on Sunday before we departed.

We plan to move to Scotland one day soon so hopefully get to see you again for any other parties we have!    If not maybe an anniversary in a few years!!!!

Please send my thanks on to Joe too!

Kylie’s wedding at Drumtochty was a great event for myself and Joe. All the guests came from England and with just 27 of them it was a phenomenal party with lots of fantastic singers and people dancing and a great atmosphere.

Kylie loved to dance and was a superstar on the dance floor and looked stunning in her wedding dress with the white led dance floor beneath her.

I was personally over the moon with my lighting creation at Drumtochty Castle and to hear all the guests comments as they entered the room. We had closed the doors to make it a huge surprise for Kylie and Peter as they entered the room.

So many of Kylie’s guests were totally blown away with what we did. For me this is the ultimate in satisfaction and to receive such a lovely review really made me very happy and proud to have given my bride and groom such a fairytale wedding.

Here are some photos and a video from Kylie’s wedding:

 

If you are interested in my £1,000 wedding  deal or our full Monty wedding package which includes even more items please get in touch by email: platinumdiscosuk@gmail.com or by phone: 07472 287 151 or by using the contact form on this website: https://platinum-discos.co.uk/contact/

Here is a copy of the flyer with the details of the Full Monty package. It’s the ultimate wedding package!

I decided to add to this blog post this morning and tell you about The Full Monty Wedding Package.

Well the first item on it is giant letters which I talked about further up the page. The good news is that with The Full Monty Package you get six additional letters making a total of 12 letters! You could have “LOVE” and “MR & MRS” and as you’ve got two letters left over I’ll give you the “&” symbol free so you’ve got your initials too! Here is an example that I photographed at Inchyra Grange in Falkirk.

You could also have “MR & MRS DUNCAN” as an example and if your name is longer than six letters I’ll give you the extra letters free! Call it a wedding present from me.

I also do the bigger 5ft giant letters in “LOVE” and MR & MRS. These are good for bigger wedding venues as they take up a lot of room and the lamps are 240 volts and quite bright. If you’d like these let me know.

The next item on The Full Monty Package is The Heart Arch. It’s 7 ft tall and can be used in many ways. It’s first use is at your wedding ceremony where it can be put behind the ceremony table at the top of the aisle and it makes a really nice photographic backdrop and gives you a huge wow factor!

This photo was taken at The Three Kings just outside Falkirk in their wedding ceremony room.

It looks fantastic and can be moved to your wedding reception room after the wedding ceremony and your cake put underneath it. Once again it makes a fantastic photo opportunity as you can cut your cake with the arch behind you.

All your guests can take their photos in front of it too!

The next item on The Full Monty Wedding Package is a Candy Cart. Our current candy cart looks like this. This photo was taken at The Principal George Hotel in Edinburgh.

My Candy Cart comes with 15 huge jars of sweets, lots of lights and decorations and really looks lovely. In 2019 I’m going to buy a new Candy Cart which is the best over seen!

With built in lights and real wheels this is the Rolls Royce of Candy Carts! Once I take delivery I’ll put photos up on this website and my Facebook Page: https://facebook.com/PlatinumDiscos2018

The next item on The Full Monty Wedding Package is a white Led backdrop. You can also opt for a black led backdrop instead.

A backdrop traditionally goes behind the top table at a wedding and you can either uplight it or use fairly lights. I can supply both. It is my intention in 2019 to increase my backdrop stock so that I can pipe and drape a whole room!

Here is an example of my backdrop taken at Theo’s wedding at The Huntingtower Hotel in Perth.

The Next item on The Full Monty Package is The Doughnut Wall.

As of 2019 I will have a really big and impressive doughnut wall. The one in this picture is taken at The Principal George Hotel in Edinburgh.

The doughnut wall I’m buying will have a maximum capacity of 100 doughnuts on a single side and around 150 if using both sides!

It will have lights built into the base and will go around the heart shape on the inside and outside. All the cables will be hidden and it will really be an awesome centre piece.

The final item in the Full Monty Wedding Package is a postbox. We currently have two designs with a traditional post box painted white and a white wooden post box. I’m going to add to that this year with a free standing post box that is around 4-5ft tall.

Hete are pictures of all three post boxes:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Postboxes are really handy for all your guests to post their cards in and as its a secure box that you have the key for it makes it a very safe place to store your wedding cards and small gifts.

There are a few other items that I’ve not put in The Full Monty package but I’m happy to swap one item out for another of similar value. It’s your wedding and I’ll help you personalise it to your specification.

Coming in 2019 some amazing special effects!

It is my intention to buy Sparkulars which are a fantastic and very safe and dramatic show opener. Ideal for your first dance at your wedding as your being photographed or filmed.

Here’s a promo video of the sparkulars. If you scroll through the video to the bit where they have 4 on the floor you’ll be very impressed!

I’m also going to buy a new low smoke machine that gives the same effect as dry ice with a fog that sits on the floor and makes it look like your dancing on the clouds! The great thing about this machine is that it uses distilled water and smoke fluid and not the expensive dry ice which you have to be very careful when handling it.

Its a great effect as you can see from this video taken at a wedding in The Glasgow Hilton on Cambridge Street.

I have also started to do confetti cannons and at the moment I use the best disposable ones which are 90cm long and produce a lot of confetti and have a throw of up to 30ft!

In this video taken at a 60th birthday party at The New Elgin Halls in Elgin I’m using just one confetti launcher at a time. It still looks dramatic but my new confetti launchers are far more powerful and controlled remotely and can be fired all at once. It will be even more dramatic!

I will continue to improve my lighting and sound in 2019 and will be adding lots of new products to my hire fleet.
