Last Saturday marked my very first wedding at the stunning Styal Lodge, and what a way to experience this beautiful Cheshire wedding venue for the first time. Adam & Katy – now the new Mr & Mrs Hattersley – invited me to provide my Wedding DJ services at Styal Lodge, alongside one of our sparkling, high-energy female saxophonists, and the night was nothing short of electric.
From festive party vibes to hands-in-the-air sax anthems, this wedding had everything.
SAX & SHOTS!
My First Wedding at Styal Lodge – A Perfect DJ Setup
Styal Lodge is an absolutely gorgeous wedding venue, and from a Wedding DJ’s point of view, it’s brilliantly laid out. Thanks to the partitioned layout of the room, I was able to discreetly set up my full DJ booth, sound system and enhanced wedding lighting package while the wedding breakfast was still in full swing.
This meant that once the daytime celebrations finished, we were ready to kick off the evening party immediately — no delays, no downtime, just instant atmosphere. Perfect for couples who want a seamless transition from day to night.
Wedding DJ & Saxophonist Hire at Styal Lodge
Adam & Katy booked my Wedding DJ & Saxophonist combo from 5.30pm until 12.30am, with three live saxophone sets performed alongside my DJ sets throughout the evening.
They also chose my enhanced lighting package, which looked absolutely incredible inside Styal Lodge. Combined with the huge indoor Christmas tree, the whole room had a magical festive glow — perfect for their December wedding.
A Festive Wedding Party with Serious Energy
Katy had requested a strong Christmas party vibe, so we blended festive favourites with high-energy floorfillers, cheesy pop classics and modern party anthems. The result? A packed dance floor from start to finish.
Think:
-
Christmas party hits
-
Feel-good cheesy pop
-
Sax energy bangers
-
Indie anthems
-
Hands-in-the-air singalongs
The atmosphere built beautifully throughout the night, with each sax set taking the energy levels higher and higher.
A Beautiful First Dance at Styal Lodge
Adam & Katy’s first dance was absolutely stunning. They chose a chilled, romantic cover of
“We Have All The Time In The World” by Shannon & Keast — a perfect fit for the warm, intimate feel of Styal Lodge.
Part way through the track, I invited their guests to join them on the dance floor, which filled up instantly. Moments like this are what I love most as a Styal Lodge wedding DJ — creating memories that couples and guests will talk about for years.
Saxophone Set That Blew the Roof Off
Straight after the first dance, we launched into our first live saxophone set… and honestly, the place went through the roof.
Our female saxophonist brought pure energy, sparkle and crowd-interaction, weaving live sax lines over dance anthems and party classics. Guests were dancing, singing, hands in the air — the perfect example of why a DJ & Sax combo at Styal Lodge works so incredibly well.
Each sax set lifted the room again and again, keeping the dance floor packed all night.
A Huge Finale at Styal Lodge
As the night built towards the finale, we leaned into the indie classics — and there was only one way to end it.
A massive, emotional, hands-around-shoulders singalong to
Champagne Supernova.
The perfect ending to an unforgettable wedding party.
