The atmosphere stays relaxed and inclusive when Boyd Ridley invites requests and singalongs instead of holding the wedding at a distance. He plays recognisable songs across multiple genres and gives guests a real say in where the live sets go. Recorded dance music fills the breaks, with requests welcome there too, so the musical thread doesn't disappear between performances. For weddings, Boyd can learn your chosen ceremony songs, play through the cocktail hour, cover dinner with recorded music and move into reception dancing. The point to hear him is that handover into the reception, when guest requests can begin steering the night.

Good to know
What to expect
Boyd Ridley wants your requests. Not tolerates, wants. Guests are welcome to ask for songs during the live sets, and the recognisable stuff makes up most of the night anyway. In the breaks he runs pre-recorded dance music much like a DJ would, and requests are open there too. So the music never stops between sets, and your guests get some say in where it goes.
On the day
Access to a power point is the first thing. The second is shelter, so the show goes ahead whatever the weather decides to do. About three metres square is the comfortable amount of room, though Boyd Ridley will make far tighter corners work if that's what the venue has. Backyards, decks and function rooms have all been fine.
