The needadisco.com verified feedback process means that we only accept reviews from clients who found their DJ via the site and confirmed this with us prior to the event.

"The Bride & Groom were blown away, on entering the venue my Daughter cried & that's a rarity considering what she has been through. A week on & everyone is still talking about it & I think they will for many years to come . The whole experience was fantastic from start to finish, would definitely recommend the tv videos , name in lights & the confetti canons for the first dance as they add to the the whole experience. I was able to pay weekly which was an added bonus as weddings are so expensive. In the evening reception so many comments on how professional they were & asking were i found them lol. I even got sent flowers by the Grooms step Mum the following day for having such a wonderful time I think that says it all . If you want an amazing time book this disco book Andy x "

"Great value and communication in the build up to our wedding. On the night played a good combination of our requests (which included some alternative music) along with music that suited the guests and the mood, intertwined with karaoke which everyone really loved. Really happy and friendly pair, could not fault them in any way and it was a great finish to our celebration. Would definitely recommend"

"The DJ failed to read his audience. It felt more like a demonstration of his tastes in music than ours. He did play requested tracks but surely it is not for tge audience to request everything all night but for tge DJ to adjust the music styles to fir tge audience......people said the party was good but the dj wasn't very good. Sadly thus was not as I expected and was very disappointed. "

"Excellent disco! Arrived and set up early so ready to go when first guests arrived. Adjusted play list to get people dancing (bit of a challenge as they were more interested in the bar for quite a while). Didn't make many announcements which was fine but maybe a bit of encouragement to dance would have helped fill the floor earlier on! "

"I cannot recommend Andy and his team highly enough. We were so happy with their contribution to our wedding day; DJ and Bar Hire - both of which were absolutely fabulous value for the money paid! He and his team went above and beyond our expectations to ensure that we could get on with our wedidng day without any worries - he even stepped in to remind us to cut our cake!! (We were having too much of a good time throwing our shapes on the dance floor!) We gave Andy a list of our and our guests' requests and while not every single song got played, he used his inititative and produced a playlist that suited our preferences PERFECTLY! We made it clear from the start that we did not want our DJ to be 'on the mic' all night and he respected that wonderfully but introduced us wonderfully - even pronouncing our tricky surname perfectly! - at all the right moments. Can't thank you enough - I'm already looking forward to the next big celebration we can get you in for Andy! All our thanks, Mr and Mrs Rogulski"

I barely noticed set-up and clear-up - they did it all with minimum fuss. The booking process was also friendly and efficient."

"I agreed to book Sugar Promotions back earlier this year, and at the time I was very happy with the booking and paid my deposit for this disco. Everything was going fine until I need to contact Andy regarding certificates I needed for my venue, and I must of been trying for about three weeks to get through to him, I had called his mobile several times and sent texts to his mobile to, I also emailed him several times and his main telephone number had been cut off I thought he had ceased trading. And then out of the blue he called me I did ask him if he was still trading because I couldn't get through to him. Just said he'd been very busy (even though it takes about 20 seconds to send a text) he said he would send out the certificates I needed. After about two or three weeks I still had nothing, I then tried to contact him again through texts email and phone calls and again nothing. Then 4 week before my disco he emailed me to say he was cancelling all discos in December due to a knee operation. Very disappointed. I did eventually keep my deposit money back after several text messages and three weeks later. And Being left with no disco 4 weeks before my party I had no Choice but to Pay a premium rate for another disco, which was double the rate of a disco I could of got at the beginning of the year. So as you can see I was very disappointed with the whole thing."
There is an administrative comment associated with this event, as follows:
This member asked to be disassociated from this enquiry on 12/12/2014 stating 'Client and I have agreed to cancel booking. Deposit has been returned.'. The client was invited to accept the disassociation request but chose not to confirm, as is their right under our feedback policy.
Sugar Promotions responded to this comment as follows:
It is unfortunate that we did not meet your expectations on this booking. On this occasion it was unclear whether I would be able to perform at your function so it was deemed necessary to refund your deposit and cancel the booking giving as much notice as humanly possible. It is a shame you decided to rate our disco so low, as you have not actually used our services. As you have mentioned in your write-up, we remain the best value-for-money entertainment in the market and still have not let a client down in all the years we have been DJ?ing and didn?t want to start with you; Therefore your deposit was returned and the booking cancelled giving plenty of notice before the event date. My insurance and electrical safety certificates are readily available on the website at all times.

Birthday 40th in Reigate (RH2) on 01/02/2014 "If you are a bit of a Party DJ snob and fearful you might pick a ;cheesy; one then look no further, your search is over! This is the easiest review I have ever had to write. I booked Andy Gooding/Sugar Promotions for my 40th birthday party and he is fantastic and absolutely faultless. He is clearly a pro. Once booked you don;t need to worry about a thing. He arrived nice and early and just got on with setting up without any fuss. I requested 90;s, 00;s and 10;s chart dance music and that is exactly what he played all night...the dance floor was never empty and all my friends are still raving about the best party they have ever been to. I also booked extra lighting, a photo booth and a roving photographer through Sugar Promotions which were all worth every penny! Sugar Promotions were probably the most expensive of the quotes I received (in the mid price band) but I could tell from the professional response I received that he was what I needed for my event - he was excellent value for money. I am now looking for an excuse to hold another party and have Andy as my DJ...I don;t think you can get a higher recommendation than that! Thanks Andy."

Birthday (7-11 years) in Forest Hill (SE23) on 30/06/2013 "Delays in getting set up (30 mins late) due to factors out of their control - traffic, parking and it was a really hot day so carrying equipment up to the function room took a few people and several trips. However the couple were friendly and helpful. Unfortunately the name in lights option wasn;t technically possible but the price was amended accordingly. The children loved the music and bubbles. The games gave a good break in dancing as well. Overall very pleased with my booking and the service received :)"
Wedding or Civil Partnership in Reigate (RH2) on 07/06/2014 "Sugar promotions were brilliant and they did us proud on the day we booked disco, floor confetti cannons fireworks and photobooth through them and they offered us several ways to pay which helped spread the cost. Nothing was too much trouble. He was brilliant, the music was fab and he helped make the whole day work. Nothing was too much troublr I would recommend without hesitation and thank Sugar promotions"
Birthday (7-11 years) in Deal (CT14) on 15/06/2013 "We had a difficult situation with the event being outside and the weather was not kind to us. We had 40mph gusts which destroyed the marquee we had set up. This did not faze the DJ who set up inside the garden shed in time to entertain!"
Birthday (7-11 years) in Henfield (BN5) on 12/10/2013 "DJ arrived late as he went to the incorrect hall. He arrived at Henfield Hall on time but our event was at the Corpus Christi Hall. Once I managed to contact him he was at the correct venue within minutes and rushed around like a headless man to be ready in time for the party. Absolutely fabulous disco which kept the kids entertained from beginning to end! Many thanks. Suggest in future that if you turn up at the venue and no-one is there that you ring the mobile numbers provided rather than email."
