I found Terry through Thumbtack and finding him felt too good to be true! He was the only DJ we met with and it was pretty clear that he was an organized professional. He met us with a packet of wedding-song homework and how meticulous he was sealed the deal! His pricing is soo good and our wedding day went without a hitch. Our ceremony went perfectly, the sound quality was clear, all the songs we noted were played and he did a great job keeping the pace of the wedding moving forward and guests dancing! Thanks Terry!

Me and my husband were SO lucky to find Terry!! He DJ's our wedding reception on the 10th, and we were so impressed with his work! He's flawlessly professional and organized, and responded to calls and emails immediately. He guided us through the process of picking our music and putting together a timeline for the reception. And when the day came, we were amazed with his ability to get everyone dancing right away! He's such a pro. We're truly grateful to him for giving our guests such a wonderful experience! Thank you, Terry!!

Terry was the DJ for my wedding on August 31, 2019. We hired him for a period of 4 hours which covered the arrival of guests, the wedding ceremony, dedications, the dinner and finally dancing. If you're looking for a DJ, let me make it simple for you, HIRE TERRY!
I must have talked to 15 different DJ's and DJ companies with prices ranging from $2000.00 (yes $2000.00) to $700. Terry gave us the most competitive price and even came out to our event site to meet us and look at the facility.
His MC work was professional, making all the prearranged announcements, his equipment and lighting was top notch and of course, his DJ work on the dance floor was everything you'd want from a professional DJ.
With the cost and headache of putting together a wedding by yourself, thank God If found Terry.
Details: Wedding • 50 - 99 guests • 31 - 50 years old • 51 or older • R&B / soul • Funk / disco • Oldies • Indoors • Community center • DJ must provide sound equipment • Bride or groom • $$ (standard) • $300 - $499

Terry did an excellent job at DJ’ing our wedding reception party!!! Very quick to respond and answer any questions we had. Great pricing, beat his competitors by at least 35-50%. Played all the music we wanted to hear and some we forgot we wanted to hear. The music volume was perfect, everyone was still able to have conversations without having to speak loudly. I would highly recommend using Terry for any event. I will use him for any future parties we have and tell my family and friends to use him. Thanks so much Terry!!!

What can I say but that Terry is simply amazing to work with and my wife and I are so blessed to have found him here. He was super accommodating with our schedules, driving out to our outdoor venue, figuring out the acoustics setup in our sync-up meeting, and in that first meeting we knew we had found a really awesome guy. One of the things we appreciated was that the music wasn't too loud, but yet everyone could enjoy the ambience that Terry provided. I would highly recommend Terry to anyone looking to find a DJ
Thank you so much for your wonderful review. It was such a joy to provide our services for your wedding celebration. It was even more of joy to meet the both of you and your amazing family and guests. Sharon and I wish you and Judith all the best in your future together and our heartfelt congratulations.
