The week of the wedding, DJ Stephen asked for us to get on the phone to go over the playlist. He was incredibly thorough, listened to our opinions, and was really receptive to any thoughts we had. Day of the wedding, DJ Stephen was already at t...he venue when we arrived for our first look pictures, fully set up, and ready to play any role we asked him to play. He was clearly incredibly prepared, and I felt so comfortable knowing that he was ready for any questions or needs we had.
As the night was getting started, he always kept looking to us for any visual cues that we might need him or need something from him, and never hesitated to come over the table to see how we were doing and give us a rundown for what was coming up to make sure we still were okay with it. He also on several occasions told us that if anything changed with timing, order of events, speeches, etc., he had no problem making adjustments on the fly, which we were so appreciative of.
His music was on POINT. We were really trying to have as much dancing time as possible during the evening (ended up being about 3 hours), and honestly it felt like people were on the dancefloor all night because great song after great song came on. Great songs, mix of songs, genres, and playing so much of what we asked for. At times even when I needed to use the restroom, I didn't want to miss any good songs so I would check his lineup to see when the best time to go was, and again, he offered to make adjustments if I ever needed!
Lastly, and definitely not least, when there was about 15-20 minutes left before the end of the reception, he came up to us to let us know. He asked us what songs we wanted to close the night on, and we requested 3-4 songs that he said were great choices :). I really appreciated that. It was a small thing, but to know we were ending the night with our absolute favorite songs was absolutely amazing and ended the reception on such a wonderful note.
