We hired Sam as our DJ just 8 days after deciding to elope & have a small intimate ceremony with our family! Sam completely met our expectations! From the start, his attention to ...
detail and suggestions made planning a bit easier since we were on a time crunch. He followed our vision perfectly, creating a nice flow that set the tone for an incredible evening. The first 1.5 hours went very well with our entrance, to our first dance, dances with our parents, cake cutting and a few speeches and then Sam took over, energizing the crowd and filling the dance floor with his awesome song choices. He captured the vibe of the night, turning it into an unforgettable celebration of dancing and fun that our family has been talking about all week, including ourselves!! Sam is an exceptional DJ who knows how to make the moment special. His professionalism, talent, and ability to keep the energy alive throughout the evening were awesome. We definitely plan to use him for any upcoming events in the future and highly recommend him!
