PROFESSIONAL WEDDING DJ IN KZN MIDLANDS & DURBAN

I’m Jarryd Sunkel, a Professional Wedding DJ in Durban, specializing in creating unforgettable celebrations in the KZN Midlands with over two decades of wedding and dancefloor experience. Over the past 20 years, I have built a reputation as one of KZN's best Wedding DJs in the Midlands, offering an exceptional experience to all bridal couples.

Success as a Midlands Wedding DJ goes beyond simply delivering an unforgettable party. It requires meticulous attention to detail and a commitment to crafting a truly memorable experience for you and your guests. The key ingredient is the ability to read the room, make the right musical choices at every stage, seamlessly adapt to any changes, and always be punctual. Most importantly, it’s about understanding your unique musical preferences and those of your guests to create an atmosphere that keeps everyone on the dance floor.

As a dedicated Wedding DJ in Midlands, I know that weddings are unlike any other event. They require the perfect mix of professionalism, experience, and, most importantly, true “wedding etiquette” that only comes with years of expertise. A wedding DJ plays a vital role in setting the tone for your big day, which is why I take the time to truly understand each couple—their personalities, music tastes, and the energy they want to create for their guests. I always encourage couples to share a list of their favorite songs so we can build a playlist that perfectly reflects their unique style.

My extensive music collection spans everything from the hottest hits of 2025 to timeless wedding classics. Whether it’s chart-toppers from Avicii, Flo Rida, and David Guetta or golden oldies and sing-along anthems that keep the dance floor alive, I ensure an unforgettable musical experience for you and your guests.
I have had the pleasure of performing at many of the top Midlands wedding venues, earning a strong reputation for exceptional music, outstanding service, and reliability. Recommended by both renowned venues and happy couples, I take pride in creating unforgettable celebrations.

Although based in Durban, I travel across South Africa to bring my Midlands Wedding DJ services to couples in Cape Town, Johannesburg, and beyond, ensuring a seamless and memorable musical experience for every special day.

I also offer the SPIN360 as an additional addon to the DJ package. Take a look at how the SPIN360 works here

My attention to detail and "All the small things" that make my DJ Setup a very professional and aesthetically pleasing experience. My DJ Screen hides any cabling that would usually be visible.

As one of KZN's leading Wedding DJs in Durban, I have extensive Wedding & dance floor experience and have since been a part of many beautiful Wedding celebrations. My job is to make your feet hurt and I have mastered the art of successfully doing so. I have a great reputation for providing quality services in the Wedding & Corporate Industry. Over the years, I have been a part of many Toastmasters competitions which led me in to being a Professional Wedding MC for both Weddings & Corporate Events. 

Our lighting setup features professional DMX-controlled Intelligent LED Moving Heads and Parcan lights to bring the dancefloor to life. We also incorporate an LED Bar to create a vibrant "color wash" for any venue, complemented by effect lighting that shines through haze for a dramatic look. 
DMX lighting elevates wedding ambiance with several unique advantages. It enables dynamic control, allowing each light or group of lights to be precisely adjusted, tailored to different wedding segments like the ceremony, dinner, or dancefloor. This control also allows for deep customization: lighting colors, intensity, and effects can be tailored to suit the wedding theme or specific moments, creating an intimate, warm glow for the ceremony and an energized atmosphere on the dancefloor.

Additionally, DMX lighting enhances decor by highlighting focal points, from centerpieces to floral arrangements, making these features more prominent. Our Cold Spark Fountain Effect adds a mesmerizing element to your first dance, creating a safe, magical display of sparks perfect for indoors. DMX systems also integrate seamlessly with music and other entertainment, syncing lighting effects to the music’s rhythm for a fully immersive experience.

Cold sparks add a stunning visual effect to your wedding, creating a magical and memorable experience. They are safe, non-flammable, and suitable for indoor and outdoor venues. With no heat, smoke, or strong odors, they are an environmentally friendly alternative to traditional pyrotechnics. Cold sparks enhance photos and videos, providing a glamorous backdrop for key moments like your first dance or grand entrance. They can be synchronized with music, customized in height and duration, and used for multiple parts of your celebration, ensuring a wow factor that will leave a lasting impression on your guests.

Having a photobooth at your wedding adds an extra layer of fun and excitement to your celebration, creating lasting memories for both you and your guests. It provides entertainment during moments like pre-drinks or the reception, giving your guests a fun activity to enjoy while capturing candid moments. Photobooths also offer a unique keepsake, as guests can take home instantly printed photos customized with a template designed specifically for your event. These photos not only serve as souvenirs but also add a personal touch, reflecting your style and the spirit of the day.

In addition, a photobooth creates a relaxed environment where guests can let loose and enjoy themselves, often resulting in spontaneous, fun-filled pictures that you wouldn’t get from a professional photographer alone. It also encourages interaction among guests, helping to break the ice and foster a lively atmosphere. Overall, a photobooth enhances the wedding experience, leaving everyone with cherished memories in the form of both digital and printed photos.

As the founder of Photobooth LAB, If you choose to book another DJ for your Wedding, we still offer this brilliant service to all couples.
