Mom’s SPAGHETTI.

Tennyson Events is a collective of expert vinyl DJs for lovers of music!

As one client told us “You’re not wedding djs… you’re djs who happen to play weddings”….

We’re for the Disco weddings, the funk and soul weddings, the Drum N Bass weddings, the Swifties, the boy band lovers, and the 5am dancefloor fiends.

No party is the same, no wedding is the same, and we will work directly with you to inject your style into your day.

We also don’t act like a Dj agency; from first contact we’ll match you with your Dj and they will be your point of contact for everything to do with your wedding.

  • First and foremost, we are djs who are passionate about being djs. We love our craft, we love our music, we love performing. We are djs!

    Our team is composed of seasoned vinyl DJs who don’t just play music—they live it. With over 20 years of experience, we bring a wealth of expertise, whether hosting prime-time radio shows on Fresh927, running iconic record labels for Ministry of Sound, or studying at prestigious music institutions. We've earned accolades like the Fringe DJ of the Year and have represented our state, but what drives us is the love for our craft and the joy of sharing it with you.

    We have also won exactly ZERO awards for being the best wedding djs...

    Every wedding and party we curate is as unique as the people celebrating. Whether you’re into disco, funk, soul, or the latest hits, we’ll work closely with you to infuse your personality into every moment. Our approach is different—no amateur DJs, no part-time button-pushers, and no preplanned sets. Just expert vinyl spinning, perfectly timed from the first note to the last.

  • We are absolute experts in music. A lot of us are record collectors and some of us have worked managing record labels.

    We will work with you to understand exactly what type of music you like, and we are experts at blending what you want with what your guest will love.

    Dont worry if we dont have your first dance on vinyl - we use a mix of real vinyl and digital records which give us access to almost every song ever made.

    Some of our DJs are more fluent than others at certain styles, so we may suggest a specific DJ who is the expert in what you want.

  • We mostly do the one package:

    • We are first to come, last to leave. Arriving early to set up our gear before guests arrive. An average day for us is 6 - 9hrs of music.

    • Music starts before your guests arrive for your ceremony, and plays during drinks and reception music. We will bring the right equipment to suit your wedding.

    • We'll provide all our own equipment, speakers, lighting, and mics. We just need a power point. The exact equipment will be tailored to your event - if you have 200 people we'll bring extra equipment to make sure your speeches can be heard and your dance floor is pumping!

    • We are happy to MC too!

    You can chat to us about extra things like disco balls, and special effects. If you are having something shorter we can customise our package to suit.

  • This depends on the Dj and your date, the best thing to do would be to get in touch and have a chat.

    Our clients on average $2500-3500 on their wedding entertainment with us.

    And an average day for us includes travel, setting up before guests arrive, playing music from before the ceremony till the final song (about 8hrs). MC'ing, and all our dj and lighting equipment to cover whever you might need it.

  • We sure do!

    Most of our weddings are located in Adelaide or the winery regions surrounding. We have also DJ weddings in Bali, and DJ weddings around Australia.

    We can work with local suppliers to make sure we put on an amazing show wherever you are.

  • Head to the contact page.

    From the first email we will connect you with the dj for your wedding and they will guide you through the process.

    It starts with a few questions on email, then a face to face catch up via zoom, or over a coffee or drink. We'll get an outline of your musical tastes, and what you want out of us.

    If we feel that we are the right people for the job, and if you feel the same - we'll shoot over the paperwork.

    From there we'll catch up a second time before your wedding day to grab the final details, then it's time for the epic party!

  • We play over 100 events a year, and over the last 20 years we have played thousands events to millions of people.

    We absolutely hate being sales people, and we are not here to sell ourselves in to every event - we want to give you the best advice to help you make the best decision for your wedding. Even if that involves recommending another business.

    If you are lost, please drop us a line or give us a quick phone call and we can answer any questions you might have. We are experts!

“You’re not wedding djs, you’re djs that just happen to play weddings”
