Amazing! We used Sounds to Go DJs for our wedding! Ben was incredible and kept the dance floor packed the entire night! From the start of planning to our last dance, Sounds to Go DJs went above and beyond to help us have the wedding of our dreams.

You get what you pay for. We choose sounds to go DJ because Mike seemed nice and he matched a rival DJ services price. Man was I wrong. The DJ was mediocre at best. His recommendation of a photographer was the biggest mistake of my wedding. She was inexperienced and very unprofessional to say the least. She had no direction and no clue what she was doing.

My husband and I met at our indie rock college radio station, and are very particular about the music we love to listen to. We thought that finding a DJ who would play the music we loved instead of the typical wedding songs would be difficult, but it was pretty seamless once we were recommended to Mike Merrell and Sounds to Go DJs by a friend. Once we looked on their website and spoke to Anthony, we knew this was the company we wanted to go with for our wedding. Sounds to Go DJs makes it super easy for a bride and groom.
Once you book, you get access to a form where you plan out the music for your entire wedding. Mike also called us when it got closer to our date to go over the choices. Everything went perfectly on the actual day. We kept getting texts all night about how great the music was. Everyone was dancing and having fun the entire night! I highly recommend booking with Mike and/or Sounds to Go. They were integral in making our wedding the best day of our lives!

We used them for a photo booth and lighting. They were amazing and easy to work with. To be honest they were so efficient I didn't even see them the day of because everything ran so smooth. You can pay online which makes things easy too. Glad we booked them :.

Sounds to Go DJs is amazing! They made our wedding so special! They were easy to work with and their website planning and payment forms made everything so simple and organized. We were married at the Stone House at Stirling Ridge and also had a photo booth with our package. Jeff was our DJ and he was fantastic and played awesome music. He also did our ceremony music and it was perfect. The way they uplighted the room was gorgeous too.
And the quality of the camera and the lighting in the photo booth was top notch. I'd recommend Sounds to Go to anyone planning a large event. They are very professional, fun, and you will not be disappointed!
