Mike was hands down the best DJ we could have ever asked for! He had some people out dancing that I NEVER thought I'd get to see out moving like that again and kept the party going all night. We are so lucky to have been able to book him for our wedding so if he had your date available I highly recommend you book immediately!

First off, Mike made himself available VERY last minute for our last minute wedding (less than a month's notice). Not only that, he went above & beyond in referencing our notes & creating a playlist that suited us & we couldn't have been happier! We loved the music during dinner & had an absolute blast on the dance floor afterward. The timeline we had in mind didn't quite work out, but Mike was incredibly flexible & helped keep the night moving smoothly despite us being about 30min behind. We couldn't have asked for anything better & we can't believe we landed someone so fantastic on such late notice! We'll certainly be recommending Mike to anyone who asks!

From day one Mike was easy and straightforward to work with. He continued to stay in touch with us regularly before the big day to ensure we had everything buttoned down. Considering we were coming from out of state and never had an opportunity to meet in person, Mike did a phenomenal job working with our playlist and editing as he saw fit to keep the dance floor hopping! Both my wife and I were beyond impressed and would most definitely recommend anyone consider Mike as their DJ!

We couldn't be happier that we chose Mike to be our wedding reception DJ! From his attentiveness to our needs, quick response with emails, professionalism, great ideas and genuine care in making sure our day went perfectly, he completely blew us away. Mike was so fun to work with throughout the whole process, providing us with great tips and feedback. He made us feel so comfortable and in great hands, which was extremely helpful since planning a wedding is no easy feat!
We met with him twice prior to our wedding and he was able to accommodate our schedule, even with us living in a different state. When our big day finally came around, Mike was there for us with everything we needed. Our reception music was on point and everyone had an amazing time. He did a fantastic job with announcements and coordinating our timeline with scheduled events, i.e. the bouquet toss, shoe game, speeches, etc. Mike is exceptionally skilled with figuring out what works for a crowd and what will keep the energy going. His skills show that he is a seasoned DJ with plenty of wedding experience, and we would recommend him to anyone. We will definitely miss working with him!
