Eric is fantastic. We'd hire him again, no question. We had to switch venues shortly before our wedding. No issues with Eric whatsoever. He is patient with planning, accommodating to our personal preferences, flexible w/ the venue he has to...
work with, and competently creative with decisions left to him. Eric is very personable, and has an incredibly extensive music database. Thank you Eric, you rock! And thank you for your heroic public service career as a Fire Fighter in our community.

Eric Stevenson was a FANTASTIC DJ! He met with us at Starbucks and we talked about what we had in mind for our reception. Found out he has an extensive professional history as a DJ, and he just got insured for over $10k of equipment. Super prof...
essional and easy going! He emailed us an outline so we could have music for everything...our entrance/exit, garter & boquet toss, first dance, parent dances, cake cutting...and so many other things we had never thought of. We had such a diverse crowd of people, we weren't sure what all we'd want to dance to. He rolled with the punches so well and got everyone out on the dance floor the whole night. The amount (and range!) of music he had right on hand was INCREDIBLE. At one point we went from dancing a polka to Baby Got Back. Such a fun night! Just make sure you clearly communicate exit and entrances so the timing's right.

I kind of fell into being a DJ after playing music for community events. When I was in law enforcement I would play music for National Night Out and the Police Activities League for kids. That evolved into other kids camps such as Camp Rosenbaum. In 2005 I changed careers to firefighting and started doing events for many departments in the area. I started focussing more on weddings and I have lost track of how many I have done. It has to be over 300 by now. This is the first time I have advertised as all of my events have been word of mouth until now.
