Thank you Jeeven and Party Central for organising the dholis
I have been in touch with Jeeven, who organises events for Party Central, and he has been a great help. His customer service is excellent. He was very patient and helpful in finding the package best suited to my requirements, even though there were a few changes to timings and dates. Jeeven is a very friendly guy, easy to communicate with and very quick to respond. So thank you, Jeeven, for organising the dholis for me.

Party Central event planning experience
Sanj from Party Central has been absolutely brilliant in helping us find the right DJ package for our event and venue. From the very beginning, he has been so friendly, approachable and genuinely helpful. He has given us lots of great advice, not only about the DJ package but also about the venue, which we really appreciated. I would definitely recommend Sanj and Party Central.

What is an electric violinist?
An electric violinist plays an amplified violin, usually with backing tracks, performing modern covers of pop, dance and rock as well as classical pieces. The sound is big and bright, and the performance is far more energetic than a traditional string player.
Violinists can play a relaxed set for a drinks reception, a high-energy showpiece, or play over the DJ to lift the dance floor. Wireless kit means many can roam the room, and LED or mirror costumes add a visual edge.
Where it works best
Drinks receptions
Modern covers as guests arrive.
Violin with DJ
Live violin over the dance floor.
Awards nights
A big entrance for the ceremony.
Weddings
From the aisle to the first dance.
Launches
A striking live moment for a reveal.
Winter themes
Mirror or LED costumes for a frosted look.
Tips from our team
- 1
Brief the DJ
Violin over the DJ works best when they agree the tracks in advance.
- 2
Check the power
Violinists need a power point and either their own speaker or a feed into your system.
- 3
Choose the costume
From smart black to LED and mirrored looks, tell us your theme and we will match it.
Frequently asked questions
How much does it cost to hire a violinist in Blair Atholl?
Violinists start from £550. How long they play, how many sets you need, whether they play with your DJ and travel all change the final price. From prices are a guide only.

Travel to Blair Atholl is included in your quote.
Can a violinist play Bollywood songs?
Yes. Many of our violinists play Bollywood and Punjabi favourites alongside classical and pop. Send us your list and we will confirm.
Is a violinist good for a drinks reception?
Yes. A violinist is perfect for drinks receptions, ceremonies and dinners, and an electric violinist can play over the DJ later in the night.
Can a violinist play our first dance?
Yes, with enough notice to learn the piece.
Can an electric violinist roam?
Yes. Many have wireless kit and can move around the room or dance floor.
Do they bring their own sound system?
Most bring a compact system for receptions. For larger rooms we agree a feed into the venue or DJ system.
Can they play our first dance song?
Usually, yes, with notice. Send us the track and we will check with the performer.
Do venues around Blair Atholl have sound limits for dhol or music?
Many hotels and country houses set a sound limit or an end time, and some ask for unplugged dhol indoors. Tell us your venue when you enquire and we will check its rules before we confirm anything.
Which postcodes around Blair Atholl do you cover?
All of PH18, plus the rest of Perth and Kinross and nearby Hugh Town, Helston, Falmouth and Penzance.
What time will the violinists arrive, and how will they look?
They arrive smartly dressed and on time, usually 30 to 45 minutes before the performance, so they are ready the moment you need them. We share arrival times and a contact number with you before the day.
Are your violinists vetted and insured?
Yes. Every partner is vetted by our team before they are listed. They hold public liability insurance and certificates, carry out risk assessments, and any electrical equipment they bring is PAT tested. Venues often ask for these documents and we can supply them.
How far in advance should I book violinists?
For weddings and summer weekends, book as early as you can, ideally several months ahead, as the best dates go first. We can often help at short notice too, so it is always worth asking.
Do you cover Blair Atholl and the rest of Perth and Kinross?
Yes. We book violinists in Blair Atholl, across Perth and Kinross and the whole of Perth and Kinross, for venues, homes and outdoor events.
