We were over the moon with our choice.
Tracey booked Richard Budding for their Wedding • December 2024
“We were over the moon with our choice. From beginning to end the service provided by Rebecca was impeccable and we felt very reassured that our custom was valued. Richard Budding was smart, professional and reassuring. On the night he kept the dancefloor filled and I, the bride, felt like I danced the night away. Richard played so many of the songs we had requested and injected his own choices which kept everyone dancing – the dancefloor was still full when the lights came up. We really felt that Richard made our wedding the best party ever and we would highly recommend him to anyone.”

Gregor booked Richard Budding for their Wedding • November 2024
“Both Alive Network and Richard budding provided a very professional service and everyone has been very helpful. It was refreshingly hassle free, which is a great benefit when you are organising a wedding. Richard was excellent. One of the highlights was when he came out midway through to warn me that my main request was about to be played, so that I could get friends together. It really showed that he wanted to make the night a success! ”
Richard really brought the party to life at our wedding!
Heather booked Richard Budding for their Wedding • October 2024
“Richard really brought the party to life at our wedding! I really liked the fact that he listened to my comments about particular musical likes/dislikes prior to the event and was happy to play requests during the evening, unlike some DJ's who never seem to get round to playing what has been requested.”
Your patience and easy manner was fantastic.
Lucy booked Richard Budding for their Wedding • August 2024
“ Richard you were everything we could have asked for in getting everyone dancing constantly all evening. Your patience and easy manner was fantastic. You were genius in playing our first dance again later on in the evening when we were both soo much more relaxed, a very special moment indeed. Your lighting was fab too against all the stone work of the castle.”
Richard booked Richard Budding for their Wedding • May 2024
“Richard managed to get just the right mix of songs that we wanted. His judgement was spot on and all of my guests said he was very good and they had a wonderful time.”
