Top Wedding Tips

When choosing music for your event, make sure the energy fluctuates. High energy all night will quickly tire your guests and empty a dancefloor no matter how brilliant the music is.

Trust your DJ! They're not a Jukebox!

Meet with your suppliers! Whether face to face or over Zoom, you should 'click' before putting that deposit in.

Indian & Western Fusion

This is from the Wedding of Mr & Mrs Cole at The Reid Rooms, Dunmow. This was a multicultural Indian & Western fusion Wedding. The Bride & Bridesmaids put on a great Bollywood dance! The music was primarily Indie, Rock Classics, House, Hip-Hop and R&B. Brilliant night!

Bohemian

This is from the Wedding of Mr & Mrs Julian-Albone at Teybrook Orchard. There was a Bohemian theme to this Wedding and what a brilliant party it was. With music from Indie, Pop, Nu-Metal and more, everyone was catered for. The Photo Booth went down a treat as did the Bubble-Haze machine. Brilliant party and seriously thought the floor was going to break!

Rock & Roll

This is from the Wedding of Mr & Mrs Ruffell at The Hare's Field. One of the venues where we're a preferred supplier. It was a Rock 'n' Roll heavy evening with plenty of Disco thrown in for this small Wedding of around 50 people. A cracking night yet again at The Hare's Field!

All The Cheese!

This is from the Wedding of Mr & Mrs Reid at Little Channels. We had a bit of everything here from 70's Disco through to a bit of Old Skool. This was a cracking night!

Oops Up Drum & Bass

This is from the Wedding of Mr & Mrs McFarqhuar at East Mersea Hall. They asked for a wide range of music, from your classic Wedding favourites through to Ska and Drum & Bass. An absolutely brilliant night in a lovely venue on Mersea Island.

Disco Frenzy!

This is from the Wedding of Mr & Mrs Sims at Witham Rugby Club. Witham Rugby Club was transformed into a beautiful marquee style venue. The Photo Booth was out as well (pics at the end of the video). This was a full cheese Wedding (I mean...first dance then straight into Come On Eileen), finishing off on some Deep House because why not! Everyone had a great time!

One of our Most Reliable Vendors
Steve was a Godsend! He did an amazing job with the photobooth at our wedding last week. He moved from one hall to another in the venue and was definitely one of our most reliable vendors. He responded to our queries promptly and we could not be happier. Thanks so much Steve and I hope you had as good a day as we did.

Genuinely Cared
Myself and my husband contacted Ace Beats in the lead up to our wedding, to enquire about Photo booth hire options.

From the initial contact with Ace Beats it quickly become apparent that Steve genuinely cared about his customers. His responses to our questions were always executed quickly, thoroughly and helpfully. His advice and willingness to help was greatly appreciated in the middle of planning our wedding! We was looking for a Photo booth that would provide fun, interactive and memorable entertainment for our guests - Steve was able to advise us on the most suitable packages available within our budget.

We hired the Photobooth Expo Air 2, which included 100 Prints, which we were able to select our chosen photo template with personalisation and our guests were so happy to be able to keep! A varied selection of props - which were plentiful and displayed perfectly at the event, digital upload of the all the photos taken a few days after the event and also included animated GIFs. These were a brilliant way to capture guests having fun and making memories at our wedding, that we will treasure!

Steve is incredibly professional yet so approachable, as the one manning the photo booth during our event, he felt like a friend rather than a supplier. His time management and professionalism was something we never had to worry about. From start to finish, Steve was superb at creating exactly what we had asked for and was the best addition to our evening entertainment.

We honestly could not recommend Ace Beats enough and will definitely be using Ace Beats in the future for other group events!

Thank you Ace Beats for helping to make our wedding so memorable!

Fantastic Wedding DJ
I contacted Steve about being the DJ at my daughters wedding on 27th July 2021 held at Parklands Quendon Hall, Essex.
I explained that the wedding had been cancelled and moved 3 times due to the Covid Lockdowns. I told Steve how I had paid a deposit to another DJ who simply took my money and disappeared and how he never responded to any of my messages.
Steve could not have been more helpful. He offered me a great price, was so professional in every way. He contacted the venue too to discuss all aspects for his services.
My daughter and son in law discussed with him before the wedding what music they would like him to play.
Steve was brilliant, he was able to find some of the strange requests that we had put forward.
I was unaware that Steve had actually set up and had arrived much earlier. In fact he told me he had been there for most of the afternoon. Steve liaised with our Bollywood Dancer so that her performance ran to plan.
He had a brilliant sound system going and was such a lovely man.
I would highly recommend Steve for any event and will definitely be booking him again for my Birthday Bash later in the year and any further events.
He made our daughter and son in laws wedding so special.
Thank you Steve, you are simply the best.
