One of the parts of my job I genuinely love is the behind-the-scenes preparation that often goes unnoticed—the work that goes into every wedding I play. I dedicate a huge amount of time to carefully planning and organising each event, with particular focus on the details that truly make a difference.

Receiving playlists from my couples is something I always look forward to. It gives me great insight into the music they love and the atmosphere they want to create on their big day. No two weddings are ever the same—musical tastes can vary massively, and when working with international couples, it’s essential that I understand a wide range of genres and cultural influences.

Being a wedding DJ isn’t just about showing up and playing in a beautiful location—it’s about doing the groundwork well in advance, especially at this time of year, with less than a month to go before my season kicks off. I’ve been spending this quieter time diving deep into playlists, curating ideas, and refining sets so I’m ready to hit the ground running.

Every now and then, a playlist comes through that really resonates with me—as if it’s been pulled straight from the soundtrack of my own life. Today I received one of those, and it genuinely stopped me in my tracks. An amazing playlist made up of almost every song I grew up listening to—so of course, there are plenty of 80s classics and club anthems on there! It’s moments like these that remind me why I love what I do.

Well, I can’t believe how quickly time is flying by—just under a month to go before the start of a very busy wedding sea...

Well, I can’t believe how quickly time is flying by—just under a month to go before the start of a very busy wedding season! Once again, I’ll be traveling the lengths and breadths of France, and I’m looking forward to a season filled with beautiful weddings (and hopefully no rain this year!).

I’m fully booked for 2025 with 27 weddings confirmed, starting the first weekend of May and wrapping up on the last weekend of September, spending most of the summer in the southern regions of France.

I can’t wait to revisit some of my favorite wedding venues, reconnect with friends I’ve made over the years, and discover brand new locations for the first time. 💖

I’ve been upgrading my gear again this year to take my presentations up a notch, making sure I invest in only the very best equipment in terms of sound and lighting. It also lets me offer my couples more options for their weddings.

Looking forward to a fantastic season ahead, catching up with and working alongside many of my wedding supplier friends, and providing the perfect soundtrack for all my couples' weddings.

To all my couples this year—let’s make your wedding day unforgettable! 🎶✨



Here are just some of the stunning wedding locations I will have the pleasure of at this year. 🥰

Taking the opportunity before it starts to get really busy to wish everyone, all my past wedding couples, all my future wedding couples, all the wedding vendors I have had the pleasure to meet and work with, all the beautiful wedding venues I get to visit and work at, all the incredible musicians I get to work and perform alongside, and all the friends I have made in the wedding scene … A Very Happy New Year to all!

May 2025 be even bigger and better than 24! It’s been an amazing year for me personally, and I can’t wait to get out there and play for you all in 2025! I’m almost 100 percent booked up for next year, only 2 weekend dates remaining!

Tonight I’m working in the North for a change, in Bretagne at my friends lovely Italian restaurant Familya playing to a packed out house tonight, all French 🇫🇷 so I’ll be digging out all the French Classics tonight!

Have an amazing NYE everyone wherever you may be in the World! Cheers to 2025… 🥂

Let’s go… 🎉🥳

If you're a wedding couple looking for classical music to enhance your special day—whether it’s a solo violinist, a cellist, or a full string quartet—the talented musicians at Ensemble Obbligato are an exceptional choice.

Another lovely review from the last wedding I played at. The booking was through Gig Heaven which is an online booking site. Hamish & Maddie are a lovely couple from Australia who got married in Dieppe.

Details of the new review:

Name: Hamish Parker
Organisation: Wedding
Rating: 10/10

Review:
The best and easiest experience ever! From the beginning Kristan was so welcoming in his contact and then video chat. He explained everything from the beginning and made the whole process stress free.

He was very professional and knew everything he could do to make the day better for us. On the day he was on time and super organised.

The equipment he had was amazing and provided a great experience for our guests. The party was amazing and he included the songs that we had suggested and it was all so much fun.

I would highly recommend him, it will be the best decision you make!
