FAQ
That's one of the things we're famous for. If you book 'The Leading Men' or 'Jersey to Motown' you get Darryl Lovegrove to MC your wedding for only $1,000 (depending on his availability) - Darryl's MC fee is usually $2,000
If you book Darryl Lovegrove as your MC then you also get our awesome TIME MACHINE DANCE PARTY for only $1,000. It is normally $1,500
TIME MACHINE DANCE PARTY isn't a typical DJ. It's a show fronted by our DJ Halloween Jack himself...it's a fully immersive (visual and audio) dance floor experience shown on a big screen which takes the audience through the history of rock'n'roll from 1955 to current day. It's one song from each year showing the original video interspersed with cultural and historic footage from that year. It's the ultimate inclusive show as it keeps everyone who wants to dance on the dance floor while intriguing those who stay in their seats.

So you may need an additional normal DJ who can supply music for the entire event and even lead a 'first dance' etc.
THE LOVE GROOVERS are renowned for going the extra mile for our clients. We pride ourselves on being able to play 'anything you want...all night long.' And with our famous brass section and exceptional singers your guests are in for a dance floor experience like no other.
That means they can play up to 4 x 50 minute sets. So, for example, they can be playing jazz and easy tempo as everyone's entering the reception. They can also play during entrees and main. They can lead the 'first dance', father/daughter dances etc. Later, when formalities are over, they can pick up the tempo and go into full drive with high energy song after song making sure the dance floor is full with the top dance songs everyone knows and loves.
The beauty of having a professional host is that all your guests are able to relax and enjoy the reception. Not only that but a good MC should be able to bring something really special to the overall 'vibe'. He or she should be a 'joy creator'. At the same time he or she should be skilful in liaising with the kitchen making sure the meals are on time and don't clash with the speeches and running order of the event.
We offer something even better. Darryl Lovegrove is hugely experienced in emceeing weddings and some of the nations most prestigious events - not just because he knows how to keep everything running smoothly but he is a world class performer...in fact he's a star of Musical Theatre Star and an Australian Event Awards 'Entertainer of the Year' and is able to perform a solo show covering some of the biggest arias and show stopper songs in the biz. When he's introduced he walks into the room singing opera which never fails in lifting the room and letting them know that they're in for a very unique and exciting event. Best of all, he's renowned for making it all about the bride and groom and often learns requested songs.
Make sure you view his promo video in the 'videos' section.
All up they can play up to 60 minutes of material. Some bride and grooms like having them for the whole hour at the end of the night when they want everyone on the dance floor. Some like them to present a 15 minute dinner set (more easy tempo) earlier in the night and than have them come back later to turn up the tempo with the full dance floor set.
Both ways work really well. It's up to you!
We recommend our usual 30 minute set where the guests see the renowned show that has seen them twice nominated at the Australian Event Awards for 'Entertainer of the Year'.
The show is specifically for those bride and grooms who want to thank their guests for coming by giving them a world class, sophisticated Broadway style experience performed by the biggest names in Australian Music Theatre. It's a very 'top-shelf' form of entertainment that connects with its audience in a warm and thrilling way. It's not designed to get people dancing but rather a concert style set-up with audience interaction.

Thanks Lisa. We remember that wedding well as it was one of the first shows we'd ever performed and certainly our first wedding! You'll be happy to know we've gone on to perform well over 300 shows since including two visiting Royal Family State dinners, countless A-lister corporate and charity gala events and of course...weddings! It all had to start somewhere so thanks again!
