Holly & Chris’ Wedding at Trinity Buoy Wharf: A High-Energy Party with Power Ballads and Indie Anthems
When it comes to epic London wedding venues, Trinity Buoy Wharf is up there with the best. We’re lucky enough to be on their preferred suppliers list, so we’ve played here countless times—but Holly & Chris’ wedding? This one was something special.
With DJ Jon on the decks, this was a night built for pure, unfiltered party energy. A huge mix of 80s, Motown, 90s pop, garage, indie, and a full-blown power ballads section, the setlist was crafted to perfection—designed for singalongs, hands-in-the-air moments, and some truly outrageous dance moves.
A First Dance That Set the Mood
Holly & Chris kicked things off with “You’re the Best Thing” by The Style Council—a classy, feel-good track that set the perfect tone. Friends and family joined in partway through, turning it into a proper celebration rather than just a slow, intimate moment.
And that energy? It didn’t drop for the next six hours.
A Setlist Built for Maximum Mayhem
Holly already knew exactly what she wanted from the night. Being a huge fan of power ballads club nights (which Jon has DJ’d at hundreds of times), she gave a brief that we were more than happy to deliver on:
🔥 80s bangers – Martha Reeves & The Vandellas, Cher, Bon Jovi
🔥 90s pop & garage – Mis-Teeq, Girls Aloud, Spice Girls
🔥 Indie anthems – The Killers, Oasis, Arctic Monkeys
🔥 Power ballads – Nothing but the biggest, loudest, and most emotional singalongs
The result? Wall-to-wall dancing, full-volume singing, and a crowd that could have gone all night (helped along by a few shots of Tequila Rose).
The Curveballs That Landed Hard
As always, RedLine DJs specialize in reading the crowd and throwing in the unexpected tracks that take the night up a level. These ones absolutely smashed it:
“Freak Like Me” – Sugababes – 2000s garage-pop perfection
“Common People” – Pulp – Indie chaos on the dancefloor
“Believe” – Cher – A massive singalong moment
“Let Me Blow Ya Mind” – Eve & Gwen Stefani – A 00s R&B switch-up that landed perfectly
And when it came to power ballads, the crowd delivered some of the loudest, most off-key-but-brilliant shout-singing we’ve ever seen.
A Legendary Last Song – “Africa” by Toto
After six straight hours of dancing, it all came down to one final moment. And what a way to close out the night—“Africa” by Toto had the whole venue belting out every word, arms around each other, fully in the moment.
Trinity Buoy Wharf – A Perfect Party Venue
We always love playing at Trinity Buoy Wharf—the space, the atmosphere, and the unbeatable London skyline views make it a perfect venue for big, energy-filled weddings. And working alongside an absolute dream team made the night even better.
