Had a fantastic experience with Shaun, originally looked on a third party event site where a number of different event companies reached out. In comparison, Shaun was professional, organised and offered a great deal. They arrived promptly with a check in throughout the weekend to ensure their services were as expected. Will definitely use again!

I’ve recently hired some light up number for an event. Shaun was professionally and very reasonably priced compared to other event companies. It was all taken care of, the delivery, set up and collection. Great professional communication, would definitely recommend.

We used Shaun for my daughter’s birthday party and would highly recommend. Great communication ahead of the party, arrived promptly. The equipment was all very professional and the sound quality was brilliant. Shaun had great energy and managed to keep a group of 6/7 year olds entertained for 2 hours!

I hired a photo booth from Shaun Smith Events for my event, and the service was outstanding! Shaun provided a fantastic package, including stunning light-up numbers that really elevated the decor. On the day, there was a minor issue with transferring photos via text or email, but Shaun quickly resolved it by giving me full access to the gallery after the event. The photos were fantastic, and the whole process was smooth and professional. Highly recommend Shaun for anyone looking to add something special to their occasion!

Shaun helped me throw a blinder of a Christmas party last week. Top choice to go with!
If you're looking for more than just a DJ, look no further than Shaun Smith Events! From start to finish, Shaun delivers an unforgettable experience that goes far beyond simply playing great music. Shauns energy, professionalism, and ability to read the crowd are unmatched, he creates an atmosphere that keeps everyone on their feet, dancing and having the time of their lives, ensuring it’s personalised and memorable. Highly recommend!! We had a great Christmas Party for students at our Dance School!

The Dj and Photo booth were amazing additions to the night celebrating getting married They even included some couples games and very thoughtful guest book for everyone to include photos from the Photo Booth to sign for us to keep. Very grateful for the team’s effort and would highly recommend and use again !
We had a party to celebrate our wedding and Michael the DJ was great, he came out with some surprises we were not expecting and really made the party a vibe! Everyone was dancing all night! We also had a Photobooth and he was great too, we got to keep all the photos in a book which is a lovely keepsake! All round perfectly organised and carried out, we had the best night.

Due to circumstances out of Shaun’s control on the morning of our event Shaun had to change around his DJ’s . This was done with no inconvenience to us and very professionally. The DJ who covered our party ( Charli ) was amazing she catered to all our music needs and everyone had a fantastic evening . Would recommend Shaun Smith events .

We booked Shaun for a joint birthday party for my daughter and her friends 5th birthday. Not only did he ensure he arrived early to set up and kept going right until the minute he was due to finish but he kept all the kids happy and entertained throughout. The kids loved him and so did we!

He was so entertaining and the kids just loved him. We had over 50 kids there and he included every single one. 100% would recommend shaunsmithevents ltd. I’m defo gonna use hun again

Shaun was an absolute pleasure to work with, he arrived early spent a quality amount of time setting up and most of all made this the best evening we could've asked for, for an 18th birthday party. Really got the atmosphere correct - everyone up and dancing and kept the party going all night with amazing tunes and mixes. Couldn't speak more highly of the business.

We had Shaun DJ for our engagement party and we couldn’t of asked for more! He kept everyone up dancing the whole night, played any requests, knew exactly the vibe people wanted and was a big part of our night! We will 100% be using his services again. Can’t recommend enough!!!

We needed to find a dj and photo-booth last minute, as we were let down by another venue. Shaun was fortunately able to help, and from initial communication, to the actual event everything has been outstanding. Shaun clearly cares about his customers, and it’s been a real pleasure dealing with him and his company. Thank you!

Recently hired Shaun for my daughter Freya’s 18th birthday party at Hadleigh Suite. He really gaged the night and the guests so well and played all their favourite songs and requests and kept the engagement of our guests throughout. He even helped us out with finding some items we had forgotten too. Everyone had a great night and we would highly recommend Shaun to anyone looking to hire a DJ and I would also look at the other items he hires too for another time like light up numbers and/or letters and various other services too.

Shaun cancelled on me on Saturday (28th June) morning for my 40th party that was planned for the same evening. He cited breathing troubles, so I gave him the benefit of the doubt, but I have not heard from him since despite him saying he would offer a refund and compensation. He will not return my calls or emails. He was paid in full two weeks ago having also chased me quite impatiently. He was meant to be providing karaoke DJ services, digital photo booth and light up numbers, but left me in the lurch. I DO NOT RECOMMEND AT ALL. Avoid at all costs. See his cancellation text message below...

Just want to recommend Shaun as he MASSIVELY helped me out with light up letters & Photo Booth for my charity event last week. We had a lot of hurdles with a venue on the day and he still helped and stayed which obviously he did not have to do! Brilliant would absolutely recommend x

I hired Shaun after recommendation from the venue I had hired for my partners surprise 30th birthday party in May 2024. Having never met Shaun face to face, I was so pleasantly surprised to see a smiling face walk through the door and tell me to stop stressing, it’s going to be fine. Shaun picked up the vibe of the party from the minute people turned up, and there was not a single second that at least 50% of the party weren’t up & dancing up until the very last minute. The photo booth was an absolutely incredible addition and the photo book we were given at the end of the night was such a special surprise I even had a little cry. It’s such a perfect way to capture memories and something we look back at and giggle at often. I cannot recommend Shaun & his services to enough people & have even booked him for my own 30th upcoming in the summer. I feel at ease knowing that Shaun has everything handled, the communication right up until the event is finished is always immaculate & extremely professional & being brutally honest, I can’t imagine throwing another party without him and his team being involved. Don’t even think about booking, just do it.

We had Andrew as our DJ for our youth club children’s Christmas party yesterday in Shoeburyness and he was awesome. The children did not stop dancing and loved competing in the dance-offs. Excellent DJ set with something for everyone, staff and kids alike.
Thank you for making our party so memorable. 🎄❤️🎅🏼

Shaun DJ’d our staff Christmas party and went out of his way to cater to all of our requests, no matter how demanding or ridiculous (or drunken). He got everyone involved, even the shy ones. He’s accommodating and engaging, and I will definitely be hiring again for our next event. I can’t recommend enough.
