A venue I know well

I have played Hatherley Manor near Gloucester. The Hatherley Suite is one of the bigger party rooms around, with a permanent dancefloor and room for 350 in the evening, and I know exactly how to fill it.

So when you book me, you are not getting a DJ seeing the room for the first time on the day. The set-up, the timings, the way the energy carries from dinner to the last song. I have done it here before, and I will do it for you.

What I know about this room

The details that make your night land.

A big room, no limiter

The Hatherley Suite holds up to 350 in the evening, with a permanent wooden dancefloor and no sound limiter, so I can run a full, proper night. The bigger the room, the more it matters to have a DJ who fills it.

I read the room, not a playlist

I have watched this floor fill enough times to know when to push and when to hold. The set is built around your night and your crowd, on the night, not from a list sent weeks before.

I bring the full rig

I bring my own proper sound and lighting, set up and tested before your guests arrive, so the night sounds and looks exactly as it should.

The practical stuff

Good to know for a party at Hatherley Manor.

The questions I get asked most, answered.

How early do you get there to set up?
I arrive in good time to load in, set up and soundcheck, so everything is tested and ready well before your guests arrive. I confirm exact access timings with the team beforehand.
Can we have confetti?
I will confirm the confetti policy with the team, biodegradable is the usual. Fireworks here are through one approved company.
Do they allow haze and foggers?
Haze is what makes the lighting look incredible, and I run my CO2 effects for the big moments. Heavier smoke I always clear with the team first.
Is there a sound limiter?
No sound limiter in the Hatherley Suite, so you get a full-volume night. It has a permanent dancefloor and is air-conditioned, which makes for a comfortable, proper party.
Any other restrictions worth knowing?
Hatherley keeps a recommended-suppliers list, and fireworks are limited to one approved company. Everything else we plan together.
Anything to be aware of for a party here?
The Hatherley Suite is the big party room, up to 350 in the evening with a permanent dancefloor, plus an outdoor Pavilion in the walled garden. Set in 37 acres of parkland.

Don’t just take my word for it

“We hired Dan to DJ our wedding and it was the best decision we made. Dan made so much time for us in preparation for the day with zoom calls, checking timelines and using his app. Quick to respond to emails and give his advice and suggestions on what would work best. We genuinely couldn't have asked for anything more. On the day, Dan's setup looked amazing and he kept the crowd going all night long - I don't think I left the dancefloor at all!!! We had a real mix of music and you absolutely hit the mark. So many comments about how amazing the evening was - even older people saying it was the best evening reception they had been to. Thank you so so much Dan for making the evening such a blast - it really was the best part of the day for us. Love George and Izzy Richards x”

“Dan was absolutely incredible! From our first call, he was super friendly and professional, and really listened to what we wanted from the wedding day. The app Dan uses is a great, and allows you to tailor those key songs for the big day. On our wedding day, Dan went the extra mile and started the night with a DJ set outside for our cocktail hour, nailing the summer vibe perfectly! Going into the evening, he had everyone dancing all night long and managed to mix in genres for everyone’s taste. We would highly recommend Dan and would give him 10 stars if we could!! ⭐️”

“Luckily came across Dan by chance on instagram, when I looked through his videos I knew he was exactly what we were looking for. Dan has an app for you to let him now if there’s any special song requests before the day and any songs not to play which I thought was brilliant. Dan also sorted our dance floor and confetti canyons which were an amazing addition to the night . Dan thank you so much! Everyone was up dancing all night . Would definitely recommend.”
