Ian Preston does not simply arrive at a wedding, he ignites it. From the first note that floats through the ceremony air to the final anthem that keeps the dancefloor alive long past midnight, Ian commands the room with charisma, precision, and pure performance power.
Ian Preston + Wedding Singer, DJ & MC
With more than 1,000 celebrations across Europe behind him, he blends the soul of a live vocalist, the instinct of a world class DJ, and the authority of a polished Master of Ceremony into one electrifying presence. Every transition is seamless, every build up intentional, every moment charged with atmosphere. Guests do not just attend an Ian Preston wedding, they feel it. The energy rises, the laughter grows louder, and before anyone realises it, the dancefloor is full and the night has taken on a life of its own.
Behind the flair and energy sits a seriously experienced professional whose career reaches far beyond one destination. Although Ian is based near Marbella on the Costa del Sol, he has performed at prestigious weddings, private celebrations, and high profile events throughout Europe, bringing the same polished standard wherever he goes. From luxury villas and beachfront venues in Spain to elegant hotel ballrooms and exclusive event spaces across major European cities, Ian has worked with international couples and diverse guest lists, which has sharpened his ability to read a room quickly and tailor the soundtrack to the people in front of him. That European experience shows in the details, too. Destination events demand more than talent, they require reliability, clear communication, and a calm presence under pressure. Ian is known for being easy to work with, highly organised, and totally focused on flow, making sure every key moment lands perfectly, from ceremony audio and entrances to speeches, first dance, and the final track that closes the night in style.

What services do you provide on the wedding day?
Ian offers an all-in-one entertainment service that can cover the full flow of your day, depending on what you need. Many couples book him as a combined DJ, live singer, and Master of Ceremony, which means one professional manages the atmosphere from key moments like guest arrival and ceremony sound, through speeches and dinner ambience, right into the party. This approach keeps everything consistent, avoids awkward handovers, and helps your timeline feel smooth and well managed. If you only need one element, such as DJ-only or singer-only, that can usually be tailored too, but the real magic is the seamless blend across the whole celebration.

Do you travel outside Marbella and the Costa del Sol for weddings?

Yes. Although Ian is based near Marbella on the Costa del Sol, he regularly travels for weddings across Spain and throughout Europe. Destination weddings often involve additional planning, including travel logistics, venue access times, and technical checks, and Ian is experienced in working with planners and venues to make that process straightforward. When you enquire, you can share your venue location and date, and Ian can confirm availability, travel requirements, and any associated costs clearly upfront, so there are no surprises later.

How do you handle the music style and our “must play” list?

Ian’s approach is collaborative and personalised. You can share your must plays, your do not plays, and the overall vibe you want, whether that is elegant and timeless, modern and clubby, or a mix that keeps every age group happy. Ian then uses his experience to shape the night with pacing and momentum, keeping the dancefloor moving without making it feel like a random playlist. If your guests are international, he is also used to blending genres and eras to keep the whole room engaged.

Can you provide live singing during the ceremony or drinks reception?

Yes. Ian can provide live vocals for key moments like the ceremony, cocktail hour, and drinks reception, depending on the style you want and the venue setup. Some couples choose one or two meaningful songs for the aisle and signing, while others want a longer live set to create a premium atmosphere as guests mingle. Ian will advise on what works best for your space and timeline, and can also support with ceremony audio, including microphones and music cues, to make sure everything sounds clear and professional.

Yes. As MC, Ian helps your day run smoothly by guiding guests through key moments with confidence and warmth.

A strong MC makes the difference between a wedding that feels slightly disjointed and one that flows naturally. Ian’s style is polished and engaging, with the right balance of energy and professionalism.

Requirements from the venue are usually straightforward, such as a safe power supply, an appropriate performance area, and access times for setup and soundcheck. For larger productions or venues with strict noise rules, Ian can coordinate with the venue or planner to ensure everything meets requirements.

How far in advance should we book, and what is the booking process?

Popular wedding dates can book up quickly, especially peak season weekends, so it is best to enquire as soon as you have your date and venue. The booking process is typically simple. You reach out with your wedding date, location, and the type of service you want, and Ian will confirm availability and provide a clear quote. Once details are agreed, you secure your date, and planning begins around your timeline, music preferences, and key moments. This structured approach keeps things easy for you while ensuring the entertainment is fully prepared.
