Given the “Covid” year that was, it was wonderful to receive notification that DJ:Plus! Entertainment had been awarded the title of Best Wedding MC & Wedding DJ 2021 – Australia at the 2021 LUXlife Magazine Global Wedding Awards!
The notification goes on to say, “DJ:Plus! Entertainment has demonstrated excellence and commitment in this industry, even in the face of uncertainty and more than ever, we believe you should be recognised!”
The LUXlife extensive research and judging process is driven by merit and centred around an in-depth evaluation of skills and services on offer.

DJ:Plus! Entertainment is extremely honoured to be given the opportunity to be involved in a couple’s wedding day; to be recognised by couple’s and industry for my efforts means so much. A humongous THANK YOU to the couples that entrust me with their most special of days, your faith in me drives me to continually improve and to offer much more than the average MC or DJ. I remain forever grateful for allowing me to indulge in my passion.
Caitlin and Kosta are a beautiful couple who are just perfect together. They are caring, gentle, hilarious and fiercely loyal to their family and friends.They first met in 2016 when they were in the same class whilst doing their Honours at University and became good friends.
Their feelings for each other began to grow and around a year later Caitlin and Kosta went on their first date. The location was a Sushi Restaurant in Chatswood. By the end of that date they had shared their first kiss. Not long after, they both realised that they were falling in love.
On 2 September 2020, on a weekend away in the Blue Mountains, with the excuse of celebrating Caitlin’s Birthday, Kosta had created a picture book with photos and memories of their time together and on the last page….was his marriage proposal to Caitlin. There were some happy tears, but the answer was a resounding, YES!
Now no global pandemic was ever going to stop these two getting married and celebrating with their family and friends when they wanted to 🙂 . So here we were just over six months from Kosta’s proposal and Caitlin and Kosta said “I Do!!!”. It was the most perfect day. Not too hot, not too cold, everything was just right and one way or another, everything just all fell into place.
Caitlin looked absolutely stunning and Kosta scrubbed up pretty well also 😉 , but beyond the appearances, for me, it was the deep connection that they shared. A love that has been growing over the last few years, a love that has made them much more beautiful people. It was such an honour for myself to be invited to preside over the reception as their MC.
In the end, it was a wonderful evening as we celebrated their love and their lifelong commitment…..and despite the COVID restrictions, we were blessed that dancing restrictions were eased just before their wedding and a maximum of 30 were permitted to dance at any time, which everybody adhered to. This meant that there was no problem with the Greek Dancing or the normal dancing, which was a concern as the wedding date was approaching.
From all accounts everyone had a wonderful time at a wedding which was elegant, fun and full of happiness. Thank you for granting me the privilege of being your Sydney Wedding MC – you both touched my heart and it will never be forgotten. Caitlin and Kosta, as you start this new journey in life, may every day hold wonderful shared experiences!. May you always find in each other the love, laughter and happiness that only best friends and partners in life share!

LUXlife magazine has announced the winners of the 2020 Global Wedding Awards.
There are few industries that demand excellence in the way that the wedding industry does. All things considered, it’s to be expected. After all, weddings are one of those life milestone events. A dreamlike day defined by perfection.
Naturally then, it takes a special company or individual to distinguish themselves from their exemplary peers. Yet, the wedding industry has long been forged, shaped and driven by these paragons. The Global Wedding Awards was launched to recognise the extraordinary work of companies all over the world who shine brightest.
DJ:Plus! Entertainment is extremely proud to be a winner in these awards for the third consecutive year! The Global Wedding Awards are based on merit, not the number of votes received. The process works to ensure that they reward parties based on their excellence in the industry, the quality of their products and their dedication to service.
Excited to advise that DJ:Plus! Entertainment has been awarded “Best Wedding DJ & MC 2020 – New South Wales”. Thank to all the beautiful couples that invest their trust in me, allow me to witness the love they share and play a part in creating beautiful memories why I hope they can always look back on fondly – I am truly grateful!
