John was very accommodating from the first meeting. He was flexible with our music choices, and even let us do a few unplanned speeches , etc. I loved the fact that the music was kept age appropriate until later in the reception, and that he made sure to keep the events flowing smoothly, even when Mike and I were distracted with wedding guests. My favorite was that he helped us make a spoof song for the mother/son dance that really entertained everyone. John did more than other vendors we looked into, and at a much more "affordable" price. Definitely lived up to the title. Thanks so much John! Mike and Melissa Gorski

John was an awesome part of our day. Everything ran smoothly, he played he music we liked and he had everyone dancing! Communicating with the Google doc is a perfect way to have fast communication and it just worked out so well. We can't thank him enough for helping us have a fun time on our day!

John helped us with planning the reception as well as the music for the entire reception. To put things simply, John was everything I could have hoped for and more. He was polite, genuine, flexible, accommodating, and on point with absolutely everything. The value of what he provided to what we paid was superb. I can't recommend John highly enough. He was very organized leading up to the wedding, which took weight off my wife and I. He played what we asked for ahead of time and didn't play things we requested him to avoid playing. Absolutely take advantage of John's services if you have the opportunity.

We just Had An Affordable DJ, DJ our wedding June 25 2016 and loved them!!! They really are reasonably priced and delivered on everything they promised. The dance floor was the place to be all night, and that is a huge thanks to our DJ. I'm not the best with music so to be honest I didn't give him much to work off of as far as what kind of music or songs we would like to hear. He did a wonderful job picking up the vibe of our guest and playing music that would keep people on the dance floor. Our guest all just kept telling me how much fun our wedding was. They also have a photo booth you can package together with the DJ Services, it was a great deal and everyone loved it. I Also have to say the owner of the company was so responsive to me. it was never more then a couple hours before I got an email response to a question I emailed him. I also had to change the time I needed the services a few times and he was so flexible with it and make it no big deal. They Made our night and I would recommend them to everyone!!!
