He…read morewas great with getting as many details as possible to keep the reception on track and accurate. He came early to ensure everything was set up perfectly. He kept everyone on track with the timeline even when we were not ready or very organized about it. I am Indian and we have hard names to pronounce. He absolutely nailed it all without skipping a beat. He went along with some of our crazy requests. He took charge of things that I had not planned for. Everyone told me that the Dj was awesome and they were having a blast the whole time. He really cares about making the event exactly how people want them. I Highly recommend Dj Derek and Extreme Sounds Entertainment and Lighting

Horrible horrible DJ. I am sitting at an event right now.

And nobody could understand as his speakers were absolutely horrible. And he was told but it was never fixed. He messed up three times on starting the wedding song for the bride and groom. That was horrible. The bride and groom really want everything to go perfectly so messing up on the wedding song was not acceptable. If this was my wedding I would have felt horrible. Of course we all had a great time so I'm not going to say that he ruined it but it could have gone way smoother than it did. The wedding itself was beautiful the people were incredible the food was most delicious and everybody had a great time.

We are so grateful we went with Elevated Events for our wedding, Marco was PHENOMENAL. The entire…read moreprocess was made much easier from the detailed questionnaires that we completed prior to our meeting with the DJ. My husband is Indian, so his parents/some of his groomsmen had some difficult to pronounce names, and Marco was great about making sure he was pronouncing them correctly! We went over it in our zoom call prior to the wedding, but on the day of he confirmed with the groomsmen themselves that he was saying it correctly before he announced them entering the reception. Marco was great at reading the crowd, and his assistant was definitely keeping the guests' energy up! So many of my guests commented on how great my DJ was, and some even expressed interest in hiring Marco and his assistant for their own personal events! Elevated Events truly helped make our wedding night unforgettable, thank you!!!

T.B.M. dj'd our wedding last weekend and we were SO happy with their performance! First of all,…read morethey were absolutely willing to work within our budget and our requests for music. By the way, we had some VERY specific requests and they were able to obtain licensed copies of everything. We met with Buddy and Tracy twice before our wedding. Once to discuss general ideas and again to review our choices and confirm them as well as going over the schedule for the reception in detail. On the big day, Buddy was ill but they brought in another dj to run the board and Tracy did an awesome job of mc-ing. The owner of our banquet facility told us they had NEVER had a wedding run on time like ours and yet we never felt rushed or disappointed. All the guests who requested music had their requests filled and the reception was a big hit with the guests. They even got 90% of the guests on the floor for the last dance - something rarely seen at a wedding. Great job, T.B.M - we recommend you all the way!

I'm not going to go so far as to say that TBM Productions ruined my wedding, because I had a…read morewonderful time. However, the owner/head DJ Buddy put a serious damper on the evening. It started when he neglected to email me our 'key songs' (first dance, father-daughter dance, etc) before the day-of the reception. I honestly forgot about the promise of an email with all the other things going on the day prior to the wedding. I remembered that I'd not received copies of the songs a few hours before the ceremony, so I asked my maid-of-honor to check in on it. Around this time (2 hours before the wedding) is where Buddy's arrogant attitude started to show. He refused to confirm the 'key songs' with my maid-of-honor, and he was sarcastic and short with the events coordinator at our venue. The ceremony went ahead with few missteps. Had nothing else gone wrong at the reception, I would have overlooked the insignificant mistakes at the ceremony. But at the reception, the DJ just failed. First, he did not have the correct father-daughter dance song. He didn't have the wrong version - he had the wrong song. As the song choice was very important to my father, we ended up (after some tense moments through which Buddy was no help) playing the correct song over the mic, off of our iPhone. Buddy was also unable to play the mother-son dance song because he didn't have the rights to the song. That was a recurring, annoying theme throughout the night. He would not play songs because he couldn't "get the rights". At one point during the evening, I had a laugh with the events coordinator at the venue because it seemed completely unlikely that anyone from the RIAA would find out about an unlicensed play of "Bye Bye, Baby". Towards the end of the evening, it became pretty obvious that Buddy had exhausted his supply of good music, because he cleared the dance floor by about 9:30PM. He played the most random stuff -- old Mandy Moore songs, weird cover versions of current music. I think no one really knew what to make of the mix - so we all stopped dancing. Forget about making requests, too -- he had no songs that anyone requested. At the time, all this was really upsetting. I was exhausted to begin with, and having to deal with a bad and belligerent DJ just tired me even more. That's right - he was arrogant and unapologetic throughout all of this. We did end up getting all of our money back, but that didn't correct the experience. Overall, the DJ service was simply bad --- bad attitude, bad music, no ingenuity or adaptability.

I responded saying we would be using his services and would send him the paperwork over the next day. Once I sent him the paperwork, he responded with a question about payment. After I responded to his question I didn't hear back from him. I sent the response on a Thursday so I thought maybe he was just busy and I would being hearing back on the latest Monday. Monday morning comes around, and I send him an email with an update on the paperwork because I need to get things moving for my event as it was 2 weeks away now. Again no response. Finally I had email him again the next day basically asking why he is ignoring my emails, and if he is not interested in our business he could at least respond so I can look elsewhere. Finally he responds with, and I quote, " I'm so sorry for late respond. I'm sorry but i have already fill the date with another client." I am so frustrated and disappointed in this response. Do not tell clients that you are available for booking and to have me send all the official paperwork for you to ignore it and find a different client. Very unprofessional of Ryan and would not recommend to anyone to use his service.
