About this vendor
I've been in business since 1996 and have personally performed at over 400 wedding receptions over the years. I'm based out of Willard, Ohio. I have multiple packages to suit different budgets as well as a D.I.Y. Rental Package for those on a extreme budget. All of my packages have music video displays and dance floor lighting for more entertainment. There are also many optional upgrades available such as a wedding ceremony sound package, dancing on a cloud, pyro grand entrance and more.

Went to wedding in October of 22 where he DJd and thought he was amazing so I asked my friend for the information and reached out. I was so happy he had our wedding date available! From booking him to the wedding he was amazing to work with and I will recommend him for anyone looking for DJ services.
We had a great experience with Mark! He really puts his heart into his work and it shows. He was super responsive and his set up really impressed a lot of our guests. We did a few things that were a little out of the ordinary and he was great about everything. He even called before our wedding to practice the last names of our bridal party. We really appreciated the effort he put into making our day special and many of our guests danced all night long!
Mark was awesome! He was the DJ for our NYE wedding reception on 12/31/2020! He set up early to accommodate for early guests, guided the entire evening from the arrival of the wedding party until well after midnight! He even did a special count down for the ball dropping. The music was relevant and kept our party going all night long! We could not have been more pleased, he really made the party special and memorable for us and our guests! We HIGHLY recommend him for any event you may be planning, thanks again Mark! What a night to remember!
I don't even know where to start... On his business Facebook page he complained about the work he had to put into setup and trashed talked our wedding. He also stopped our ceremony in the middle of "i dos" to do a mic check. We had specific songs that we wanted played and he completely ignored our request. He played music he personally liked rather than the genre that we chose (pop/country) he played 80's classical. I gave him instructions on when events would take place and didn't listen. He also got the names wrong of the bridal party enterance. At one point his song collections got so out of hand I had to have my bridesmaids hook up her cell phone on pandora for 3 hours! Bc he refused to play what we asked for. He played the music so loud you couldn't hear what he was saying over the microphone and on that note he had an awful banner streamed across stating "don't worry ladies I'm still single" all night! Which was highly inappropriate. Overall he ruined my wedding and was a waste of money- do not book him
A great Dj! Thank you for doing such a wonderful job. You were very patient with all us. You were very organized, outgoing, fun, hip, and you have so many songs from back then to present! Mark is really awesome & worth every penny spent getting him to perform for us, from his DJ package to the photo booth package!
My wedding day was beautiful every vendor did as they agreed with the exception of Mark at First Class DJ. He spent most of hist time texting behind his DJ booth. He also had a tasteless scrolling name badge on that read "The DJ is single" . He announced the bridal party completely wrong and names wrong despite me requesting that we go over names a few days before and doing so,including calling the mother of the groom "JIM" rather then Jessica. He played only half of my 10 requested songs and then choose what he wanted to play rather then what was requested. The quality of the music and sound was lacking guests could barely understand what he was saying. I gave him a itinerary with order of events and he still missed important times because he was buys on his phone. It was just a bad experience overall he seems very nice on the phone but has a bad attitude in person it seems like it's Mark's way or no way. Regardless of this we had a lovely day but be aware this DJ is not worth your time.
Recently I attended a local bar where there was a DJ hired to do the Thursday show and I stayed the entire event and was very impressed to say the least. I watched as First Class DJ Service enthusiastically kept the dance floor packed with a crowd of people and was very open to song requests mixed with his own song choices made for an entertaining evening. I grabbed one of his business cards and checked out his well organized website that was very informative and easy to navigate through. I will be hiring this DJ service for all events coming up in my life including my own children's weddings. I've since told many of my friends about this DJ. I have hired DJs before several times for weddings and parties and I have worked in a club for over 23 years and I have never had a more positive experience as I did with watching the DJ perform.
This was the cheapest DJ I could find in the area and it definitely showed on the day of the wedding. He has a very nice system and set up and a very nice guy, however his music choices were not good at all. The first 3 songs (in a row) of the wedding were "Electric Slide, Cupid Shuffle, Cha Cha Slide." Then we submitted a list of songs we wanted, he played the beginning one after another, not reading the crowd at all. No one really danced continually, it was very hit or miss with his selections. If you go with this dj, be very specific about what you want played and not played up front and he will play that. He did not take requests, even from the groom, because he had "too many must plays to play from the bride," but he was playing songs we did not request at that time. He played Sponge Bob Square Pants, I did not even think that was something to have on the do not play list. He was very good to work with setting things up prior to the wedding and easy to contact.
