We live in Seattle, and were planning our destination wedding in the phoenix area. I had hired a…read moreDJ of the wedding site Zola. Thought everything was great until the DJ ghosted us, I know what you are going to say what does that have to do with Ayre Entertainment. Well, I started scrambling about 7 weeks before the event, and went back to our wedding site. I came across Josh, the owner of Ayre Power entertainment and from the first consult we. were locked in. He asked us what we had envisioned for our event and from there it just took off, we had sparklers, up lighting and full DJ display with lights. He was a mastermind at creating our event. All I remember was Josh saying don't worry, I got this and I never looked back. His engagement with the wedding party and the guests was like he has known us for years. At the ceremony we had mic's so our guests could hear the proceedings, and he got the officiant and my self on hot mic's and just shook his head at us, it was a moment of levity. When Josh tells you he is bringing the truck and everything is going to be used, you have to believe him, his set up is 100x better than any other DJ set up that I have seen over the last few weddings I have attended. Josh asked about such details as what age group am I playing to and what type of songs should we be playing, He played music from the 60's through todays hit's and even through in a couple of surprise mixes. I remember Josh telling me in the consult, one of many that Josh did at no extra cost, saying my plan is to have your guests on the dance floor all night long. And to his credit, everyone was dancing. Even those that were naturally challenged do to so. He kept us on schedule throughout the ceremony and reception as he guided us through all the formal dance prerequisites. As we mapped it out before hand, he said Corey you are over time, so we made some cuts to some of the formalities and it turned out great, no one was to the wiser. A fun key dance that gets everyone on the dance floor is the Anniversary dance. Josh is a master at getting the bodies on the floor. My wife lost her dad about 4 months before the wedding, so it changed a lot of things, and Josh approached us and said I would like to do a tribute to your Dad for the father-daughter dance. It was such a pointed tribute to my wife and her dad, that there was not a dry eye in the crowd. Again, without Josh these memories would not have been had. There is a saying, that you get what you pay for and not only did we get what we paid for we got 10x that in the memories and experiences that Josh created for our event. I look forward to the next event that Josh is part of because it will be that epic and special to you. To this day, guests are still talking about Josh and the job he did and asking how they can get in touch with him. To Josh, I can't thank you enough for all the hard work that you put in to make our event so special. You are truly a master at your craft and delivered upon all my expectations.

My maternity session was on location and not being from Tucson myself, Jessica knew the perfect location to go to for what I was looking for. My newborn and cake smash sessions took place in Jessica's studio in downtown Tucson. Her studio is wonderful; very welcoming and she has plenty of beautiful props and accessories to choose from. Jessica is fantastic with both infants and kids; making sure they are happy/comfortable.

She was very helpful in letting us know the best timing for photos so we could time the start of our ceremony accordingly. Hopefully we will get to bring her back to the same spot in the future to take photos as our family grows! Highly recommend.

She caused an argument with my daughter over this causing my daughter to fall an hurt her knee!! Anita just laughed it off!! Then during dinner just sat at the bar complaining she was hungry!
