I used the Wedding DJs for my wedding. The service was excellent. We had two meetings before the wedding--the initial interview where I decided to hire him (Ed Griffin), and then closer to the wedding to hash out all the details. He explained the wedding timeline to us, showed us how to cut the cake, and had lots of great ideas. At the wedding itself, he brought us water, set up the cake cutting and was generally very service-oriented. I messed up on the processional and sent the groom and officiant out as soon as I heard music. Unfortunately it was the last song for seating of the guests and not the processional song. Ed rolled with it and changed to the right song so the rest of the processional walked to the right song. He also did the ceremony and recessional music flawlessly.
I think he either forgot to bring our song list or decided not to play it. Of the 30 or so songs I requested, he only played 1. I requested 2 others and he played them, but he didn't voluntarily play any but the 1. I was really disappointed that none of my special songs were played. He did play a song that one of the guests brought from home, and I could see that he was gauging my reaction to make sure it was OK, which it was.
That being said, the music he did choose was excellent. We had given him a good sense of our taste in music and he played a good mix from both of our younger years (my husband and I are older, and we have a big age difference). The music Ed did choose got people on the dance floor and that was important to me. I really liked all of the songs he played and was very happy that people were dancing. And he's a great guy all in all. I give the Wedding DJs 5 stars for the ceremony and 3 stars for the dancing part of the evening but only because he didn't use our song list. If your song list is important to you, bring a copy of it to your wedding and have your bridesmaids keep requesting songs off it. I would use the Wedding DJs again.
Oh, and his price was not the cheapest of the four DJs I interviewed, but it was very reasonable compared to the two on the upper end of the scale. read more
