“Can’t recommend DJ Karlo enough, having a party is a minefield of choices that is very hard to choose a DJ who not just looks good on social media but who actually delivers what you can guarantee a good night and DJ Karlo definitely did that. DJ Karlo is a true pro and very easy to deal with nothing was too much trouble although I left it all to him! Thank you.”

Polly, Private Party, North Wales, September 2023

“DJ Karlo was so helpful in the run up to the wedding and was brilliant on the day. He even helped to co-ordinate a surprise entrance for some storm troopers we had hired for the evening of our wedding and worked so well with the other suppliers on the day to ensure this ran smoothly. Would highly recommend!”

Daniel, Mill Barns, West Midlands, August 2023

“DJ Karlo was a superstar, he listened to exactly what we wanted for our wedding reception and delivered. He kept the crowd on the dance floor all night and was happy to accommodate any requests that us or our guests had. 5 star service!”

Sophie, Wedding, Dodford Manor, Northampton, August 2023

“Fantastic DJ for any event. We booked DJ Karlo for our wedding and he was brilliant. Great and clear communication before. Kit worked perfectly and he brought the party! We sent a playlist over but were happy for songs to be from there or anywhere else. DJ Karlo used this for inspiration but played what was working. He'll flex to any tastes and requests. To cap it all off DJ Karlo surprised us by capturing some excellent photos of the dance floor which gave us some great memories to look back on.”

Matt, Wedding, The Ashes, Stoke-on-Trent, August 2023

“We chose DJ Karlo as our DJ for our wedding at New Hall Hotel and he was absolutely amazing he played all the right songs, there was always someone on the dancefloor and everyone had such a lovely time. Thank you so much DJ Karlo. I highly recommend him for your wedding!”

Johti, Wedding, New Hall Hotel, Birmingham, July 2023
