Rachel and Daryl Tyrer, the world’s newest Mr. and Mrs. Tyrer, celebrated their special day at Keythorpe Manor, and I had the honor of providing DJ services for their evening wedding. Their chosen first dance song, “One Day Like This” by Elbow, set the romantic tone for the evening.
The event began with guests gathering at the charming Keythorpe Manor, eagerly awaiting the couple’s arrival. As the evening progressed, Rachel and Daryl’s love story was beautifully accompanied by a carefully curated selection of music that reflected their unique tastes and journey played not just by DJ Wedding Disco, but also by the mesh band, who really were quite excellent.
Throughout the night, the dance floor remained lively as friends and family joined Rachel and Daryl in celebrating their union. The playlist featured a diverse range of songs, ensuring that there was something for everyone to enjoy.
One of the special highlights of the evening was the inclusion of songs that held personal significance for Rachel and Daryl, adding a meaningful touch to the celebration.
Rachel and Daryl’s wedding was a memorable evening filled with music, love, and cherished moments, and it was a privilege to be a part of their joyous occasion.

The timeline for Rachel and Daryl at Keythorpe Manor
| 18.00 | DJ and Band arrives to setup | – Within the old stable courtyard. – Venue advises limited space and power sockets. – WD suggested to the venue, band, and client that the DJ sets up against the wall behind the band so that the band activities (de-rigging etc.) do not impinge the DJ. Will liaise on the evening with all parties to ensure everything runs as smoothly as possible. – Band have provided a broad list of songs that they play, but will not commit to an actual set list. This obviously makes preparation for the DJ far more difficult. |
