Congratulations Alison and Andy!
It was a huge pleasure working for Alison and Andy. They hosted their wedding at the Holiday Inn in Worth near Crawley in West Sussex. Following a later ceremony, and a drinks reception, everyone partied until midnight in this lovely venue. Alison and Andy asked me to provide the music for the afternoon and evening, and to DJ with my unique VW DJ booth.
