It was an absolute pleasure to work with DJ Michael in the last several months. When I was searching for a DJ I was super stressed and overwhelmed with finding someone I could trust and work with. A lot of DJ studios are impersonal and are trying to sell you on a package. I came across 949 studios and the vibe was just completely different. If you have one conversation with Michael you can immediately tell that he is a humble and hardworking guy, so easy to talk to. I trusted him right away and from the start he became one of my most reliable and helpful vendors. You think you are getting a dj, but he is actually also like your therapist and wedding planner too because he has really great experience and input in the industry overall. There are 3 things about my experience that really stood out. I am an extremely picky perfectionist person. I have very specific tastes on music, with a lot of obscure music selections. Michael was very respectful of keeping me happy but also still providing very sensible suggestions on how to cater to the overall vibe and crowd. He also definitely knows his music and has a lot of skill. He ended up making me a special mashup of two songs I love! In short, he is a professional. Secondly, I think of all my vendors Michael was the most responsive. He is the kind of vendor who will respond to your email or text within 5 minutes, rain or shine. Which is great for me as a bride but probably frustrating for his wife ;) I always felt like he was ready to address any issue, big or small. Lastly, Michael really took the time to be present and evolve our relationship to ensure the finished product was exactly what I wanted. From start to finish we had really good ongoing conversations about tasks that needed to be completed and input on things. One week before the wedding Michael had a couple of calls with me to go line by line over my timeline to make sure everything made sense. My wedding planner didn't even take the time to do this with me and Michael ended up finding problematic areas that she should have found. I think there is a perception that when you are hiring a dj you are just hiring a person to press play on the music. I wanted someone who loves the music experience as much as I do. Music brings us together! Michael understands this! He knows it is an extremely special day and will go above and beyond to make it as special as he can for you. Thanks Michael, I will miss working with you! read more

I want to give a big shoutout to DJ Mike and MC Matt for KILLING it at my wedding! These guys were professionals in setting the vibe and keeping the energy up on our big day. WhenI first talked to Mike at the beginning of the year, he was such an easy person to chat with. He listened to what I had in mind and then sprinkled his professional wisdom and advice to help us create the perfect wedding atmosphere. What's even cooler was that he totally gets my taste in music, especially trance. Finding someone who's into trance is like finding a unicorn, but Mike and I vibed instantly when he mentioned he's an Anjuna fan. And when I told him I wanted "Treasure" by Above and Beyond for my bridal entrance, he was as excited as I was. Also, he curated a mashup for me and my dad's dance, and he was incredibly patient and accommodating through it all. Even those late-night emails got quick responses! About a week before the wedding, we had a thorough phone call where Mike took notes on every little detail. It was all about making sure we were on the same page to prevent any mix-ups on the big day. On the day of the wedding, Mike really brought the party to life, especially on the dance floor! Everyone was grooving until the very end, and that brought me full of joy. MC Matt was a legend too. Even when we had some last-minute timeline changes and unexpected hiccups, he handled it like a pro, making everything run seamlessly for the guests. His energy was high throughout the night to make the night upbeat and positive! I can't thank these guys enough for going "above and beyond" to make our day extra special. If you're looking for a DJ and MC for your wedding, these guys are what you want to have! read more

We recently had the pleasure of having DJ Mike of 949 Studio perform at our wedding, and we couldn't have been happier with the experience! From the very beginning, Mike was professional, accommodating, and genuinely invested in making our special day perfect. Mike was incredibly flexible and worked seamlessly with my brother, who played live on guitar for our first dance. Despite us running behind schedule with everything, the Mike was attentive and provided everything we needed. Mike asked all the right questions and provided us with playlists of songs that perfectly matched what we were looking for, allowing us to edit those lists to our liking. He made the whole process a pleasurable experience. The equipment was top-notch, and he provided lights and a custom booth with our initials, giving the event a premium feel at a very reasonable price. He also had great suggestions, like adding LED light sticks for dancers on the dance floor, which added an extra fun element to the night. DJ Mike and his team were excellent at improvising with the schedule, ensuring the night ran smoothly even if someone wasn't ready for their part. He was very easy to work with and even included an MC who was bilingual in Vietnamese, which was a blessing for our bilingual family.
