A live one-page site taking availability enquiries 24 days after the order was placed
The brief
Jack Ryan runs Vows & Vibes MCR, a wedding DJ and event hosting company. Weddings are his speciality, and couples can book him as their DJ, their host for the day, or both. He also covers birthdays, anniversaries, engagement parties, proms, corporate events, and bars, clubs and restaurants. He's based in Manchester and covers Greater Manchester and the wider North West, including Lancashire, Cheshire and Liverpool, and travels further into West Yorkshire. He holds £10m Public Liability and Employers' Liability insurance, his equipment is PAT tested, and he's a member of the NADJ. His bookings already run through EMP DJ, which handles availability, enquiries, bookings, payments and a client portal under his own domain.
What we did
We kept it to one page and gave each section one job, in the order a couple thinks: who he is, why he's safe to book, what he offers, how booking works, what it costs, the questions people ask, and then the availability form. For the design we drew up three hero concepts and chose the one no competitor's template could produce, because it comes from his name and his two logo colourways: a blush ceremony half meeting a black dance floor half, with his logo crossing the seam. With no photos of his own, the imagery was made to set the mood rather than pass as his events, and we left out reviews and figures he didn't have, letting his real credentials carry the trust. Rather than build an integration with EMP DJ, the availability form emails Jack; he checks his diary and sends the EMP DJ booking form only when he's free, and the Client login link takes booked clients straight to his portal. After launch we checked how the site stood in Google against other Manchester wedding DJs, added 'DJ hire' to the page title, and sent Jack suggestions for what to do next.
The outcome
The site went live on www.vowsandvibesmcr.co.uk on 4 November 2026, replacing the GoDaddy placeholder. It's too early for traffic or enquiry figures, so we're not quoting any. After launch we checked how it compares in Google with other Manchester wedding DJs, updated the page title to 'Wedding DJ & DJ Hire Manchester', and sent Jack our suggestions: a headline that says 'wedding DJ' and 'Manchester', a Hitched listing, a Google Business Profile once he's verified, and, later, a page for each main area he covers. More pages, a CMS for his extra services and deeper EMP DJ integration are agreed for a later phase.
