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 are fake paparazzi?
Fake paparazzi are performers playing pushy celebrity photographers. As guests arrive they crowd round, shout names, fire off flashes and ask for one more shot, so everyone gets the full star treatment from the moment they step out.
Red carpet interviewers add a presenter with a microphone asking guests who they are wearing and what they expect from the night. Many paparazzi take real photos that can be shared after the event, making it entertainment and coverage in one.

Tips from our team
- 1
Plan the arrival route
Paparazzi work best on a defined route, such as a red carpet or entrance, where every guest passes.
- 2
Ask about the photos
If the paparazzi take real photos, agree how and when you receive them.
- 3
Brief them on VIPs
Names of the guest of honour or senior team help the paparazzi make the right fuss.
Frequently asked questions
How much do fake paparazzi and red carpet hosts cost?
Every booking is quoted individually, because the price of fake paparazzi and red carpet hosts depends on availability, your date, location and travel, how long you need them and your exact requirements. Send us your date and venue and we will come back with clear options. Quotes are free with no obligation.
Do the paparazzi take real photos?
Many do. We confirm the details for your booking, including how photos are shared afterwards.
Will guests feel uncomfortable?
The performers read the room. They make a fuss of guests who enjoy it and ease off for those who do not.
Can we add a red carpet interviewer?
Yes. A presenter with a microphone works well alongside paparazzi, and interviews can be filmed for a highlights video.
What time will the fake paparazzi and red carpet hosts 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 fake paparazzi and red carpet hosts 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 fake paparazzi and red carpet hosts?
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 my area?
Yes. We cover England, Scotland and Wales, and our partners regularly travel abroad for destination weddings. Search your town on our coverage page to see local options.
