Johnny, ruined our wedding. I don't even know where to start quite frankly. Our initial meeting was at the hotel the Monday before the wedding. He tried to cancel on me because he forgot he scheduled something else. Then assured me he could make it to the hotel on time. We sat and waited for him for 30 mins before he finally showed.
Then came the wedding. The ceremony was terrible. The microphone he set up didnt work so no one could hear a word we were saying. The guests told me he would play jazz music for when someone walked out but would stop it until the next person walked out instead of just playing some quite jazz music until it was my time to walk.
The reception, was the worst of all though. Johnny didnt have the names of the people to introduce so our wedding planner had to tell him every time. When it came time for our first dance we stood awkwardly on the dance floor for a couple minutes while he fumbled to find the song to play. He finally found our song and it was like someone had recorded it with a cell phone and then played it back.
During dinner he played songs that kept skipping and he would realize at first so they would skip for a long time before choosing a different song. Then during dessert a CHEESEITS COMMERCIAL played. He had to ask me what my father daughter dance was while I was eating. No one was dancing and when people tried to request songs he wouldn't play them. When I tried to request songs he told me he was just trying to play what was on my playlist. Which he had already played on repeat more than once because it was suppose to be a guide not the entire wedding. That is when I realized he was just using YouTube to play songs. There would be long pauses in between songs. We even had someone boo him he was so bad. The only reason we tipped him was we felt bad that someone booed.
This was completely unacceptable and quite frankly ruined the wedding I worked so hard to plan. I am incredibly upset. It is all my friends and family are talking about and our wedding planner stated it was the worst DJ she has ever worked with.

Johnnie Hill's reply
Unbelievable.... The walkthrough was an indoor wedding, never was told prior to arriving that the ceremony would be held outside. There was another function being held in the next parlor. There were 2 wedding planners, neither of which knew what they were doing. I was contacted by Jim Firth less than 2 weeks before the ceremony. It took 2 weeks to get paid. He charged them $1200 & I only received $500. Entertainment Unlimited isn't what they make themselves out to be. They don't have their own DJ's. They put out FEELERS on THUMBTACK, charge the client 1,200 & pay the DJ less than 1/2. I have photos that state otherwise.
