Why the Coverage Matters for North Norfolk Events

The Fakenham & Wells Times is an editorially independent regional newspaper. It serves north Norfolk’s coastal and market town communities. As a result, it reaches readers that county-wide titles do not always serve directly.

North Norfolk is also a busy area for weddings and parties. It has many country house venues, coastal hotels and village halls that book DJs every year.

From 200 Vinyls to Wedding Livestreams

Tim started out with 200 vinyl records. Today he uses QR codes for requests and livestreams wedding parties for guests who cannot be there. He told the paper he aims to create something different, unique and fresh at every event.

Commitment Under Pressure

Tim has performed with bronchitis and a temperature of 103 rather than cancel a booking. He has also stepped in at short notice to help couples whose entertainment fell through on their wedding day. That experience shapes his emergency DJ hire service.
