Michael was such a joy to work with and a lucky find for us! We were in need of a DJ because our initial one accidentally double booked. We found Michael through a family friend and were so pleased! He is so easy to work with and makes time for you. Michael was also early for setup and we didn't have to worry about a thing for his arrival and setup. He pays attention to detail and was able to give us a guide/list of special event songs to help with the reception and dance portion. His experience with weddings certainly shows as he knows exactly what song is needed to liven up a room! Michael, thank you so much for all you did to work with us!! We had such an amazing time at our wedding and couldn't have asked for a better experience. :D

Michael was super responsive to all of our pre-reception requests. He was great with introductions to new activities. He also knew the right moment to ask the bride and groom what song they wanted next!

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
My prices are all inclusive! That means that consultation, follow up communication, music selection and interact planning, lighting, and MC services are included in the agreed upon price. Quotes are subject to be adjusted based up travel distance/ location and time spent providing services.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
We set up a time that works to have a phone or zoom consultation to discuss initial details and pricing. If we decide to move forward, a contract is drafted and once the retaining fee has been paid, the fun begins! Music selection, itinerary planning, as well as video production mapping come next. We show up the day of the wedding an hour early and make it all happen!
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have an associates in instrumental music performance and a bachelors in education! I’ve built 3 separate businesses while being a full time elementary music teacher.
