WEDDING DJ AT THE ORANGERY

Wedding DJ at The Orangery, Maidstone – Sumant & Meredith's Epic Cross-Cultural Celebration

The Orangery in Maidstone is a stunning wedding venue, surrounded by lush gardens and set against the backdrop of a tranquil lake and waterfall. It’s an incredible space that offers both elegance and versatility—perfect for Sumant and Meredith’s unforgettable wedding, which blended vibrant Punjabi Hindu traditions with Canadian wedding vibes. With DJ Jon on the decks and full-day support from RedLine DJs, this was a wedding that had it all, from serene ceremony moments to an absolutely wild dancefloor.

A Ceremony by the Water

The day started with a breathtaking outdoor Hindu ceremony, set right by the river within The Orangery’s beautifully landscaped grounds. We provided full sound system support, ensuring that every word of the ceremony was crystal clear with wireless lapel mics for the officiants and speakers. The groom’s entrance, or Baraat, was an energetic highlight, complete with dhol drummers setting the tone for the celebration ahead.

From Dinner to Dancefloor

Following the ceremony, guests moved indoors for the wedding breakfast, where we set the mood with a carefully curated background playlist that bridged the couple’s musical tastes—classic Motown and soul for Meredith’s family, alongside some Bollywood and bhangra-infused instrumentals for Sumant’s side.

The first dance was a timeless classic: God Only Knows by The Beach Boys. A beautifully sentimental moment that led straight into a high-energy, full-throttle party. Sumant and Meredith didn’t just want a dancefloor—they wanted a party, and that’s exactly what they got.

The Soundtrack to an Unforgettable Night

With such a diverse guest list, the music needed to be just right. We brought together an eclectic mix that catered to every corner of the room:

  • Big dancefloor fillers – Earth, Wind & Fire, Beyoncé, and Calvin Harris had everyone moving.

  • Bhangra and Bollywood bangers – Mundian To Bach Ke and Jai Ho got Sumant’s side of the family hyped.

  • Pop-punk and indie anthems – Blink-182, The Killers, and Arctic Monkeys had the late-night crowd bouncing.

  • Singalong moments – There’s nothing quite like Livin’ on a Prayer and Mr. Brightside to bring everyone together.

Last Song of the Night

As the night drew to a close, the energy in the room was still electric. To wrap things up in style, Sumant and Meredith chose Don’t Stop Me Now by Queen—an absolute anthem that had everyone belting out the lyrics, arms in the air, right to the last beat.

Curveballs That Worked

  • Dancing Queen – ABBA fever was in full swing!

  • Temperature – Sean Paul brought some unexpected dancehall heat to the night.

Big Tunes That Smashed It

  • You’ve Got The Love – The Florence & The Machine version was a huge crowd moment.

  • Desi Girl – A nod to Bollywood that got everyone grooving.

  • Shut Up and Dance – Always a surefire winner for mixed crowds.
