Sorry this pro can’t do your job, but we know other pros who can.
Introduction: Over the years, I've learned to take a different approach to the work I do. It's a "planning based" approach that works for any kind of event, but especially for weddings. I devote the time it takes with each couple to help with event planning and to create the "feel and flow" they'd like for their special day. More than that, I add extras like attending the rehearsal to help with staging and timing, always showing up early to trouble shoot equipment and setup, and even a commemorative CD that let's couples savor the memories for years to come. With over 25 years of experience, I find that I'm more of a "Wedding Entertainment Consultant" than just a DJ, and even act as something of a "day of" event planner, working with other vendors to coordinate our efforts. Although I specialize in weddings, I'm also involved in community and corporate events, I do birthdays, anniversaries, reunions, "Soc Hops", car shows and much more. The same planning and preparation is applied to each and every event, running an itinerary of events and working closely with clients to achieve the desired results. Finally, I offer one of the largest and most diverse music databases in the business. There's something from all genres and all decades including the very latest dance, country, pop and Top 40, Latin, etc. I carefully mix my music to include everyone into the party and into the fun, but work closely with each client to put together playlists in advance. It's a labor of love! The satisfaction that comes with helping clients create the dreams they have about special milestone events in their lives. Nothing pleases me more than making them happy by helping to create unique and individualized events that result in memories that last a lifetime.

Mike was exactly what we needed when we needed it! My beautiful bride planned nearly 100% of our wedding while I was away on training, including selecting our DJ. I truly appreciated him coming out to our rehearsal the night before and setting up early. He was easy to get in contact with when we had questions, and was even willing to take on my overly eager nephew as his apprentice. Perhaps Mike's great strength was the way he boldly pulled us aside and ever so diplomatically offered the perfect advice when he saw room for improvement. I loved this about him, and you will to. As he told me, "I'm not a wedding planner, but I have been to hundreds of weddings. I know what works and what doesn't" Amazingly easy to get along with, and quickly adapted to the varied musical tastes of our guests. As we cleaned up, we noticed that he placed 2 custom CD's on our gift table that included the songs he played for us that night. Long live the mix tape. So retro, so cool.

Mike was the DJ at our daughters wedding and he did a wonderful job. He was very helpful in the planning. He was flexible but kept things on time as planned.

Mike was amazing from the first meeting. We met with him a couple times before our wedding and kept in regular contact throughout the months prior to our day. I had particular songs I wanted played and he made sure I had exactly what I wanted. He came out a few days before our wedding & mapped everything out, down to the smallest details. He set up a few hours early and stayed as long as we wanted him to. He did a fantastic job "em-ceeing" our ceremony & reception. I highly recommend him for anyone looking for a professional DJ who goes above and beyond.

I would definitely recommend Mike Willman to DJ your wedding or any other event you may have come up. He does a great job coordinating and working with all of your wants and needs for any occasion but he did an amazing job at our wedding and I would absolutely recommend his services. Mike was very organized, and engaged with all of the planning process. I can assure you that you won't be let down if you decide to have him at your event. We got to meet with Mike ahead of time and from the moment we met him we knew he was the one we wanted to have at our event.

My husband and I made best choice to book Mike for our wedding about 14 months early. But he was still there if we had questions. He is a true profession,very organized and on top of ball. He is a genuine guy who wants your special event to Rock. I loved his time line and how prepared he likes to be. There was one hiccup out of his control and he handled it with ease. We highly recommend Retro Radio DJ Service!
