Mario took the time to do a call with us about two weeks before the wedding.

He also had a good feel for things that we did not have strong feelings about, and was able to offer good advice thanks to his experience. In addition to the call, The DC DJs also make the preparation work seamless with an online portal to fill out forms and mark must play (and do not play) songs.

Unfortunately, I was disappointed with the DJ services for my wedding…read more Pre-wedding: Leading up to the event, Donnell was extremely responsive, professional, and kind over the phone and email. However, as the wedding got closer, I was surprised to learn that he didn't have any standard touchpoints or phone calls built into his process. For such an important vendor who needs to handle specific announcements, cues, and emceeing throughout the night, I found that unusual. I ended up creating a very detailed document outlining every cue and announcement and specifically requested a phone call to review it. I can't imagine how the day would've gone without that call--because even with it, several cues were still missed. Ceremony: The microphone cut in and out throughout my vows, even though I had asked for a sound check beforehand. I also asked for him to start music at a specific cue (the officiant would say a particular sentence and exit the platform we were standing on). He missed that cue and we stood there in several long moments of silence. Luckily the officiant was my best friend and was still able to maneuver the proper timing for us so that we kissed at the right moment in the song. Reception: During the reception, I asked for a surprise dance floor opening after taking a large group photo with all the guests. We went over my vision several times, but he completely botched it. Then, the microphones weren't working well for the speeches. Throughout the rest of the night, his energy was completely flat. To give him the benefit of the doubt, I did have a smaller crowd, and people weren't as eager to dance as I expected. But I felt he didn't read the room well or adjust accordingly. He played several songs that weren't even on my "play" list, rarely spoke on the microphone, and didn't make any effort to encourage guests to dance or stay engaged. End of the night: I had planned a "last dance of the night" for all our guests, but about fifteen minutes before 10PM, people were already gathering their coats and leaving. Instead of jumping to the final song or encouraging guests to stay, he said nothing. I ended up having to personally ask people to stay and send my maid of honor to tell him to play the last song so we could have that final dance. Again, just didn't read the room. Communication and attitude: Whenever I tried to give feedback during the night about music choices, he came across as rude and dismissive. While I understand that it was a challenging crowd, as the bride who knows the guests best, I wish he had been more receptive, friendly, and enthusiastic. Overall, if you're more of a type B bride who doesn't have any specific cues or requests for him, and you have an easy crowd who you know will dance (I thought my guests would - I was surprised - makes me wonder if it was them or him) then you might be fine. But overall I would say I got what I paid for as he was the cheapest DJ option we found; I regret not splurging on a DJ. Luckily our wedding day was still beautiful, but it was definitely in spite of the DJ services.

Since he was newish with Dream Day, I was cautious but willing to try him out and what a fantastic decision that was. Friends and family complimented that DJ Akhil was the best wedding DJ they've seen and that my wedding had the highest dance rate (if that's even a thing) they had ever witnessed. The dance floor was always packed for the whole night! As for my first, and hopefully only, wedding, I was a bit unsure with the minimal contact with Akhil before the big night. We spoke a couple times about the type of DJing my partner and I wanted (not so talkative during dancing and not singing along) and another time about the schedule of events. But the whole night went so smoothly from ceremony music to reception. The minimal contact may have worked since their worksheet that the couple has to complete is so thorough. Akhil was very professional and very pleasing to work with, even with last minute changes. Thanks so much!

DJs manage your reception and a good one can take a lot of pressure off you to keep things smooth. We felt Jake's rates were both competitive and fair--we thought we got a great deal for the service we received! Jake is a consummate professional and listens intently to what you want, provides his own expert--but humble--insight, and will execute the plan you've created with the utmost efficiency. Jake ran the reception flawlessly. He has a great style that compliments weddings perfectly, as it's not about him--he knows it's about you. Our wedding was awesome--many folks told us it was the best one they've ever attended. The right mix of many things had to come together in order for that to happen--the weather, the venue (thank you Stoneleigh Golf Course!), the couple (thank you, us!), the friends, the food... Jake was the thread that helped tie it all together. The next time we get married, we hope Jake can come back and help make it a smash success like this one!

He played all of the songs off the list we gave him and did a great job of figuring out what other songs we might like based upon our musical interests. His attention to detail and professionalism were second to none. He made sure that he could pronounce everyone's name correctly and he double checked the times that we were doing the cake cutting, father daughter dance, etc. I think the biggest testament to him was that all throughout the night we kept getting people coming up to us asking for his name and number. I think he got like 3 requests for other weddings just during the 4 hours he was working ours! There are a lot of people out there who are much more expensive than Marc, but unless they are serving food in between songs, I don't know how they could justify those prices.
