A night djed by Beach Boyz had all our guests chanting “One more song” and we left our reception on an emotional high. For our July wedding at the Bertram Inn in Aurora, we worked with Ryan of the Beach Boyz and he blew our expectations out of the water. From the initial phone call with Rich, to a planning meeting with Bill, the company did so much to help make our day all we ever dreamed of. Our ceremony was a little special- we wanted to have a traditional church-type ceremony but outdoors and casual on-site of the reception venue. This required some extra planning and patience on the part of Rich, Bill, and Ryan, and we are so thankful for their expertise and attention to detail. The DJ, Ryan, was more than accommodating the day of and worked with my mother and my uncle, who was performing multiple vocal pieces, to get the right set-up and complete a soundcheck before the ceremony. From that point on, Ryan continued to go above and beyond. He did everything possible to make my family and I feel comfortable, and even offered to get my parents drinks. He had an amazing playlist that he assembled based on our wide, but specific, variety of preferences. He even worked with my dad to create a special surprise at the end of his toast for me. I simply cannot sing enough praises for Ryan because of his personality, his technical expertise, and his professionalism. The dance floor was packed all night long, and at the end of the night, the crowd was left chanting- ONE MORE SONG. Ryan told me after, he already had another cued up because he anticipated our crowd would not go quietly into the night! He totally brought the type of party we were looking for but he also catered to all guests, so that each and every guest was on the floor and dancing, but he ended the night with the popular hits we know and love from our generation and today’s hits. He reached back into the 50s and 60s to accommodate my husband’s old soul, and I wish he could DJ every party we attend for the rest of our lives.
The party was amazing, but overall, we were truly thankful to Rich, Bill, and especially Ryan, for making the execution of our wedding ceremony what we always dreamed of: the perfect mix of modern, grounded in the traditions of our faith, with some personal touches. You definitely want to be working with the Beach Boyz, and I cannot stress enough to request Ryan. Overall, our package was so affordable and we even did all our lighting through them as well.
