All about us and our service.
Sights ‘n’ Sounds is a professional business. Mike Hobson was the co-founder of the company back in 1976, and still runs it full time today alongside our main DJ. We provide a professional mobile disco service which has been built upon our reputation and experience. With over 40 years in the business, we have provided literally thousands of satisfied customers with professional entertainment for weddings, birthdays, corporate events and many other occasions.
First class wedding entertainment.
A wedding involves a lot of planning, and one of the main elements in that planning is choosing the right entertainment for the reception. Sights ‘n’ Sounds has been around since 1976 and has provided the entertainment at literally thousands of weddings since then. Our experience and knowledge is a good starting point and a great reason for you to consider hiring us for the most important day of your life.
We can offer you a stress free planning experience for all aspects of your reception. From your first contact with us to the fading notes of the final dance, you can be sure that we will help you plan everything along the way. You can keep in touch with us at any time by email, phone or in person to iron out any queries that you may have.
Your requirements must be considered. No two weddings are the same. We have to fit in with you and the venue’s arrangements. This very often means an early set up is required, which means two return journeys to and from the venue. An ‘all day package’ is also available should you require us to provide a speaker system and microphones… these can be used by you during the wedding breakfast for background music, speeches and announcements.
We are often asked to find special songs or music that we don’t normally carry. Our clients choice of music is always welcomed. We particularly encourage a playlist that involves requests from all your guests, including the bride and groom’s first dance.

The Wedding Setup.
Sights ‘n’ Sounds has a very flexible setup. We can be discrete and blend in with the location, using your choice of either black or white DJ booth lit with white LEDs or you can have our full stage setup using Pro Standard Moving Heads, Scanners, Laser, Uplighting etc. We can also mix and match anything in between. The choice is yours!
All our lighting is DMX controlled which simply means we are able to program the whole light show to your event. Our uplighting is wireless operated. That means no ugly wires to get in the way and a more professional neater appearance.
Go to our Packages & Options page for full details of what we have to offer, including confetti, laser shows and uplighting.
Getting the music right.
The music is the most important thing. We will consult with you about the style of music you and your guests would like, particularly the first dance, should you chose to have one. We encourage our clients to submit a playlist of songs they would like included on the night. That helps us to know we are playing the music you and your guests want. Just a small tip on playlists – we can play about 20 songs per hour, so for a four to five hour reception, a list of up to 100 songs would be about right. We will also include guests requests on the night, and of course some of our own selection.
We have a library of over 70,000 songs, covering all styles of music from the 1940’s to the latest charts so truly something for all tastes.
Classy corporate events and special occasions.
Our Special Events Package can provide for either a small event such as a birthday party to larger events like a dinner dance or annual Christmas party. With our vast database of music we can supply music for any themed event, just let us know the theme and we’ll have the music.
We can also set the right atmosphere using our uplighting service. Any colour combination can be used to set the desired effect or match corporate colours or favourite shades.
