Matt is exceptional at what he does. And he's a great guy. You won't go wrong in hiring this guy. Thanks Matt!

Matt was incredibly kind, but he was a little too much. None of the bridal party enjoyed the games, and there was a lot of talking and forced fun instead of just playing music for the dance. I also overheard the wedding planners saying he went off script and was running the show himself, which made everything run late. The whole night consisted of Matt running "game-show" wedding games. Not sure if this was what the bride and groom wanted but we just wanted to enjoy our meals.
Most people left the dance because every two songs he would make people play a game. Sometimes DJs need to take a step back and let the party run itself. Matt is great if you are looking for someone with incredibly high energy, who will include games during your wedding, (oh and also drink on duty), and who brings great fun but it was too much for my taste.

Organized and professional and yet wonderfully flexible! Matt's experience and great personality made choosing him for our event so simple. Matt set the mood for fun and brought even our most unlikely relatives out on the dance floor for activities and dancing. I could not have expected anyone better and have already begun recommending him to my friends!

Matt at Elegant Affairs really made our wedding night spectacular! We had so much fun having him as our DJ. There was not a dull night! Our wedding was a big fat Greek wedding and we had a very rowdy wedding party. Matt did such a good job at just rolling with the energy that we were giving him! I have had so many compliments of our DJ and how amazing he was the whole night! I would recommend this company to anyone that is having any type of party. Simply the best!

Matt was so friendly, respectful, and inclusive of all our guest and their requests. We had Elegant Affairs runt the sound for our wedding too. It went so smoothly - he even helped coordinate when everyone walks down the aisle. Their lighting was beautiful and really made the room look beautiful. I will make sure all my friends book Elegant Affairs.

Matt went above and beyond and made every part of the planning easy and our big day perfect. The night went so smoothly and we didn't or our family had to worry about a detail. They really listened to everything we wanted and made our reception even better than we could have ever dreamed. My family and friends are still talking about it.
