Party Planning
Effective Party Planning by "Mal Williams"
Planning your disco entertainment with regards to your audience request lists is highly recommended and I will be available to help you every step of the way with full email and telephone support to help ensure that we get it absolutely right first time. I will send you my list of guaranteed tried and tested pre-party "top tips" on getting the very best from your audience on the big night.
Party "Fin & Jo Ohalloran"
"You were absolutely brilliant as I think was evident by the fact that I barely left the dance floor all night!! The dance floor was packed all night...
I am very versatile with music and I can specialise in every decade from the 1950's to the current date. I have over 40,000+ single tracks on my music database which are spread over sixteen plus genres of music. Recently I performed several 80's theme nights which were a huge success. One of the pictures in my gallery below illustrates the 80's theme disco night on last New Year's Eve showing "Mr T" and "Michael Jackson" standing either side of the disco. As well as performing outstanding party disco sets I am also an accomplished beat mixing DJ, and have won the "Best Night Out" award for my performances at a local night club for several years in a row, so when I perform at your event you will get the best of both worlds: you will get a personality DJ who knows how to correctly address an audience, perform and mix the music for all ages and also a DJ who knows how to beat mix that perfect blend of music.

I can arrive at your venue on your party from 1pm onwards to set up and test all the disco sound and light equipment that will be needed for your party. Setting up time varies from 30 minutes to 2 hours depending on your disco that you choose and the access to your venue.
The main benefits of this service are:
Disco equipment is in place, tested and ready to go and avoids disruption to your evening party.
Disco sound system can be used to play your background music during the day or early evening.
Mini Movie footage can include your venue building and gardens, your wedding breakfast table layouts, cake and flower arrangements etc.

Early Setup + Speeches PA (Click Here)
Don't miss a word... get your speeches heard, even at the back of the room!
Your Very Important Speeches can often go unheard due to:
Guest speakers who are not used to public speaking and subsequently projecting their voice.
Guests who may struggle with a hearing deficiency.
Noisy guests and background noise.
Venues with poor acoustics.
I can solve this potential problem with my wireless table or floor stand microphone and my compact discreet sound system which I can set up early on the day from 1pm.

Speeches will sound more intelligible and have more of an impact and guest speakers will feel and sound more relaxed without straining their voices.

Consultations & Venue Meetings
It is very often the case that you may have a basic idea of how your entertainment will look and work on the night and if you are considering using DJ Mal Williams to present your disco you may also have seen some web-site videos which may give you an idea. The best way to plan and achieve the full potential of your event is to have a "consultation" or a "venue meeting". With our combined ideas, my entertainment experience and skills we should be able to visualise and see the full potential of your celebration... I also have a good collection of previous event videos to help with this.
CONSULTATIONS: I am always delighted to welcome you to join me at my home in Hampshire for a consultation where we can go through your event in detail and discuss any entertainment questions that you may have. Planning will always be the key to your successful event.
VENUE MEETINGS: I am always available for venue meetings to check your venue suitability for the Platinum Discos, Venue Up Lighting, Projector Presentations etc.
INTERESTING FACTS: According to statistics from the "Wedding DJ Association", here are the "Brides" list of most important considerations: Wedding Attire 36% - Reception Venue 34% - Caterer 23% - Entertainment 7%. After the wedding: 72% of all brides say they would have spent more time choosing their reception entertainment and 95% say they would have spent more of their budget on the entertainment. When asked 81% of guests say the thing they remember most about a wedding is the entertainment. 65% of all couples that chose a band to entertain at their wedding, said, if they had it to do over again, they would have chosen a disc jockey. Your entertainment will represent over 30% of your entire event.
Free Mini Movies Example (Click Here)

Pro-Disco lasers are the "Real Macoy" and are used for world dance events and in pop videos. There are 100's of mobile discos which have cheap low powered, simple laser lighting BUT there is a world of difference between the laser lighting used in all Pro-Disco Laser Shows. The lasers use professional high power touring lasers with state of the art high resolution closed loop scanners, the laser shows are all computer controlled and most of the shows have been written by some of the best Laserists in the world, these lasers cost many thousands of pounds as opposed to a few hundred pounds and you also require an operator's license (HSG 95) to run them in public events... ALSO live laser messaging and multi head synchronisation requires an expensive computer control system.
Music and DJ Styles by DJ "Mal Williams" cont...
The DJ and music styles that I will perform on the party night will reflect the style of music that you would personally like to hear and a mixture of the music that your audience would like. During the party I will encourage music requests and build the party atmosphere around the vibes coming back from the dance floor. I have listed below some of the music genres which I cover... I will often perform a mixture of these music genres in one night.
I am very privileged to be the current Resident DJ of the UK's finest rated hotel "Chewton Glen" where I have performed weddings and company functions over the last 6+ years. This hotel is ranked as fourth best in the world and has exceptional standards (contact Adam White, Senior Banqueting Manager, if references are needed).
Resident DJ of Southampton's best Student Night Club "Kaos"
For the last 14 years I have been fortunate to be part of one of the best and longest standing student nightclubs in Southampton. I was chosen as the core resident DJ of "Kaos nightclub" 13 years ago when the nightclub had almost financially gone under. 5 years after starting at the club my Wednesday night was getting real recognition from all the local student unions. The Solent University had voted my Wednesday night as "Best Night Out" for 5 years in a row. My Wednesday nights are still amongst the busiest nights of the week (contact Kaos Nightclub Southampton if references are needed).
Club DJ Award
I have also won the "Don't Stay In" award for "Best Club DJ", there is a press picture on this site showing the very moment I was told I'd won the award.
