WEDDING DJ AT THE GLASS HOUSE, HACKNEY

Vince & Ellie’s Wedding at The Glass House, Hackney – A Night of Unique Tunes & Big Energy

The Glass House in Hackney is an absolute gem of a venue—modern, airy, and packed with character. Nestled within Springfield Park, it offers stunning views and a bright, stylish space that transforms beautifully into an intimate party setting as the night unfolds. Vince & Ellie’s wedding here in June 2023 was an incredible night, filled with unique song choices, unexpected dancefloor moments, and an epic energy that didn’t dip for a second.

A First Dance with a Twist

Vince & Ellie didn’t go for a conventional first dance—they chose "I Choose You" by Willie Hutch, a leftfield but brilliant pick. It set a romantic yet soulful mood, giving the couple a special moment before quickly transitioning into a full-on party atmosphere. From the start, it was clear that this wasn’t going to be a night of cookie-cutter wedding tunes—every track was carefully considered and weaved seamlessly into the set.

A Playlist Like No Other

Their brief was to keep things eclectic and vibrant, blending classic disco, indie gems, and leftfield pop anthems. Some absolute highlights included:

  • Disco & Funk StaplesGot to Be Real (Cheryl Lynn), I Wanna Be Your Lover (Prince), and Dancing Queen (ABBA)

  • Indie & Leftfield Pop PicksRun Away With Me (Carly Rae Jepsen), Style (Taylor Swift), and Beg For You (Charli XCX & Rina Sawayama)

  • Unexpected ThrowbacksDon’t Mug Yourself (The Streets), Se Telefonando (Mina), and Okay Okay (Pino D’Angiò)

With a mix like this, the dancefloor was never predictable, but it was always full.

Curveballs That Worked

One of the standout things about this set was the way Vince & Ellie’s unexpected selections blended into the night. These tracks weren’t typical wedding floor-fillers, but they went off:

  • "Se Telefonando" – Mina – A gorgeous Italian classic that had a surprising number of guests singing along.

  • "Maledetta Primavera" – Loretta Goggi – Another deep Italian cut that brought some serious European flair to the set.

  • "Open Your Eyes" – Snow Patrol – A late-night moment that got hands in the air and voices singing in unison.

Big Tunes That Worked

While the playlist had its niche moments, there were also plenty of guaranteed party anthems that kept energy levels at a constant high:

  • "American Boy" – Estelle & Kanye West – Always a crowd-pleaser.

  • "Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! (A Man After Midnight)" – ABBA – A must-play for any wedding with a pop-loving crowd.

  • "Murder on the Dancefloor" – Sophie Ellis-Bextor – Safe to say this one has become an essential wedding banger in 2023.

Closing With a Bang

For the final stretch of the night, Vince & Ellie kept things interesting. Their last dance pick? "Saturday Night" by The Blue Nile—a perfect, atmospheric closer that left everyone on a high. Not your typical last song, but one that felt absolutely right in the moment.
