If you are looking for someone to ensure the entertainment aspect of your wedding goes off perfectly, we can't say enough about M2M and DJ Coria. We had a lot of moving parts with ...
our wedding. Ceremony outside with wireless mics, outdoor cocktail hour, indoor reception, multiple outfit changes, mix of hip hop/afrobeats/classic rock/country, traditional Nigerian celebrations, photobooth with printed photostrips, and a whole bunch of other bits. DJ Coria worked with use throughout our whole planning process and was very supportive and responsive to all of little details of our celebration that took a lot of time to plan and work through!
Team M2M was wonderful to work with throughout the entire planning process, responsive, staying in touch regularly to ensure all our questions were answered, joining calls and visi...
ting our venue in advance of our wedding day. Francine was a delight to work with, from our engagement photos to the day of. The teaser gallery we’ve seen look amazing and we are so grateful Francine was able to capture our special day! Coria was also wonderful to work, responding to all our many questions throughout the planing process, helping to design a set of services that would meet our needs and budget. He was also instrumental in helping us to
live stream our ceremony for our overseas family members who were not able to attend, and, again the teaser video looks amazing! I know we will cherish these visuals our entire lives! And Aaron, DJ I’motion, kept the dance vibes going all night long! The entire M2M team was so easy to work with and really added a great deal to the fun and success of our day.
We booked DJ Tim and the Photobooth for our wedding on 10/11/25 and we had a wonderful experience with the m2m team. Out guests were dancing all night and got compliments about our...
photobooth. DJ Tim also carefully listened to our music requests and crafted our ceremony, cocktail hour and reception music carefully. We definitely recommend them for any occasion especially weddings. Thank you so much!
Absolutely loved working with M2M! We required services for just the reception and DJ Coria did not disappoint--we have a wide taste in music and our families / friends love to dan...
ce, so music was really important to us. We did a photo dash to get pictures with everyone out of the way, as well as an anniversary dance, which everyone had a fantastic time with. DJ Coria was awesome at reading the mood and if people weren't necessarily feeling a song, he mixed it into something else to keep everyone on the floor. Even our catering staff were dancing!
The planning process was also super easy, the program M2M uses allows you to connect Spotify playlists so it's easy to build a playlist there then add songs you want or don't want in case you can't find it in their system (also a great date activity putting together songs and reminiscing on music we've sent each other over the years, then we still listen to it even after the wedding). We did have an issue with submitting our final payment, as our bank was blocking the payment, but DJ Coria was awesome and let us give him a check the day-of.
Highly recommend!!!
Initially, contact went well with the vendor; the first person we spoke to was very nice and helpful. Because we opted for the karaoke option, we got Aaron/Atown for the event. I s...
pent a lot of time adding songs to their website like we were asked. I added only one song to the “no play” list and many songs we did want played (more than what our reception time would need). At the reception, he played the ONE song I didn’t want played, and then many songs we didn’t ask for. I also sent the songs we wanted for special parts of our reception ahead of time, for example the song our bridal party would put to. For that, he played a song I didn’t even know which ruined the plan the whole bridal party had. It’s frustrating to spend a lot of time planning and creating a playlist that would get ignored.
One good thing about M2M was their karaoke add-on option for a good price.
DJ Coria was absolutely fantastic! From the beginning he was extremely communicative, often responding within the day of us emailing him.
He kept in touch throughout the whole pro...
cess and allowed to share lists and playlists as we got closer. He never made me feel like I was asking too many questions. Our call leading up to the wedding made me feel very comfortable with the plan for the day.
His energy makes you feel excited, but also at ease. I had high expectations for a DJ as I just wanted to dance and he exceeded them in every way. He added songs that flowed with our lists and the dance floor stayed crowded all night. The mama Mia mash up at the end was an extra bonus that we loved. Would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a perfect wedding DJ!
We found DJ Coria's response to our initial inquiry extremely rude, ignorant, and amateur. We will not be working with M2M weddings.
We asked questions including "We're wondering...
if you offer any discounts for booking more than 1 service with you (eg. DJ + photobooth)? How much are your photography and videography services? How much are the sparklers, neon glow party sticks, and ribbon wands? What other items are available?" Most of these details were not on their website at the time of our inquiry.
Response from DJ Coria: "You did not receive a response because you asked very generic questions that can be found with a simple search of our business online."
DJ Coria was absolutely the best for our wedding in August. He was able to make the perfect transition from bridal party music to the song I wanted to walk down the aisle to. I wan...
ted to be at the aisle at a certain point in the song and he landed it with my walk perfectly. It was the perfect moment and a dream come true thanks to DJ Coria. He kept guests engaged and dancing all night. We also rented the photo booth from M2M and the guests loved that. DJ Coria was able to put together my design for the photo booth exactly as I imagined it. He was so nice and personable, very easy to get ahold of and talk to. DJ Coria will not let you down!!
DJ Coria was a very professional, communicative, and helpful with all the logistics leading up to the wedding. He had two calls with me to make sure everything was set. On the day ...
of the wedding, he set up with no difficulties and was ready with every song that we had requested at the right times. I will say his style is transition-heavy and he only plays brief snippets of each song before transitioning (very smoothly) to the next. I'm sure he would accommodate any requests for longer snippets of songs, as he was very receptive to feedback.
Amazing!! On time! Organized! Friendly! Kept the dance floor full the whole time!! DJ Tim is highly recommended!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
M2M delivered an amazing experience, especially DJ Coria. They were responsive and guests mentioned this was the best wedding DJ they have ever had.
M2M was absolutely lovely throughout the wedding planning process and our wedding weekend! They were communicative, helpful, and resourceful...everything a busy bride needs for a b...
eautiful wedding! They offered bundling, so we were able to use their DJ and videography services at an affordable rate. I highly recommend this team!
DJ Tim Pusha was amazing. Everyone was engaged and people danced all night. The photo booth was a hit as well. I look forward to using them for future events.
We had Atown (Thee I'motional DJ) as our DJ, and he was wonderful and hardworking. They have a great website to add all the info/songs you want prior to the wedding day which was v...
ery user friendly. Atown was very adaptable: apparently my songs I uploaded to the website didn't upload, so he had to get our list the day of and did so without complaint and was able to give us confidence that it would work out (which it did). My friends love to dance, and I know they kept him busy with multiple song requests throughout the night. Very flexible and adaptable, and I don't think we had a lull in the dance floor from the moment he started the music. Highly recommend!
DJ Coria was the heartbeat of our big day! He was so accommodating with our requests, and really listened to our vision from our first video meeting. The sound was perfect during o...
ur outdoor ceremony- we hadn’t originally anticipated needing mics, but Cory was prepared, and made the right call. He then kept the party going from cocktails to dinner and dancing, and all of our guests had a blast. M2M has some awesome packaging options, with add-ons available for whatever you need. The pricing is incredible. Don’t sleep on this vendor!
Best wedding DJ ever. He played all the songs I requested through Spotify and even threw in some extra based on the vibes that everyone gave. He even bought up lights for the dance...

We chose M2M to DJ our wedding due to their great customer service when initially booking. They were quick to respond and very thorough in their replies, and were also flexible whe...
n we had to postpone our wedding due to COVID which was hugely appreciated. DJ Coria made us feel well taken care during our inquiry process and leading up to the wedding. They also offer affordable and comprehensive packages, and had stellar reviews. On the day of, there were a couple hiccups with timing of the songs, including the grooms intro song and first dance song, despite our requests being very clear. One of our do not play songs was played which I expect was due to a guest request, however other guests tried to request songs and we were told were rudely declined. So it sucks that the one that was on our do not play list made its way through and not the others. It was very hard to understand the DJ when he spoke on the mic, which could be partially due to the acoustics in the venue. Several announcements that were made fell on deaf ears and even the people who knew what he was saying even had a hard time understanding. We provided a lot of song inspo and while some songs were played, many of our must haves were not played. None of the slow songs we listed were played either so many of the older folks didn't get a chance to dance at our wedding, including our parents. In fact, there were many songs that didn't fit out taste that were played, so we made the best of it and ended up having a good time but were overall disappointed. If we were to do it again, we would probably choose a different DJ.
UPDATE: Updating to address the vendor's response. The review above is honest and reflects our experience which was, in our opinion, average. There is no reason to be defensive. Timing issues included not playing the grooms entrance song on time, and ending the first dance song as was requested, and where we were explicitly clear. Every song was NOT played. There was no disrespect or offense taken, that is not the point of the review. I'm unsure how you can say we listed a song on our do not play list and also on our play list because we did not mention which song that was. The song was a line dance song and it was on our do not play list only, it was not on our play list. Our point was not that it was played as we suspect it was due to a guest request. Our point was that we thought it odd that song on the do not play list would be played upon guest request but other songs, on neither list, would not be played. As any one who has ever been a bride or groom, the day is a crazy day and you get torn in all different directions. And, like I said, we made the best of it. So yes, there were a couple times something was said but otherwise we just rolled with it. This was not a bad experience, nor is 3 out of 5 stars = bad. Overall, the even was great and everyone had a great time.
Great experience. Music kept guests dancing all night. Communication was solid even when we changed things such as father-daughter dance song at the last minute. We had to make adj...

d his team were with us every step of the way and were super helpful with everything. He provided a really fun atmosphere with great music (that was totally in our style) and lighting for the reception. His team also provided excellent video streaming services so that our friends and family who could not attend in person could view and hear the ceremony live online.
We would hire him again for any event and highly recommend to anyone planning a wedding in the Richmond region.
Coria and M2M were outstanding! We initially were just using their DJ services, but ended up needing to find a photographer last minute, and M2M jumped in and helped us out. Aaron ...
was our DJ. He just seemed to get us - from the music he played to the hosting he did, he knew our vibe. He was a lot of fun, very laid back, and easy to work with. We had been in touch with Coria about hiring a DJ, and then he saved the day and did our photography. He took pictures of what was most important to us, while also taking pictures of things we never even thought of. And the pictures were stunning, with a fast turn around time! We had a lot of fun with him and his team, and would absolutely use their group again for any future events!

exts in the months/days leading up to the wedding just to check in and make sure everything was going smoothly. The online system for Melodies to Memories was so easy to enter in all of our wedding details, as well as make a great song request list for the reception. DJ Coria made sure no detail was forgotten! He read our crowd perfectly at the reception and kept the dance floor packed. Thanks for your hard work to make our special day run smoothly! We would absolutely recommend DJ Coria to anyone looking for a great wedding or event DJ!
Good communication, fun to work with, used their photography services as well and everything went amazing! Thank you guys!
Have used M2M for both of my daughters weddings and my God daughter wedding. The best photographer and DJ ever.
They are punctual and professional!!
Would definitely recommend!
Coria & M2M are seriously amazing. He made our entire experience seamless & easy. We originally hired him as our entertainment (DJ), but then 2 months before the wedding, our photo...
grapher canceled, and when we asked for recommendations, Coria told us M2M had photographers for us, too! The prices were super reasonable for both DJ & a 2 photographers. He kept in constant touch about our music choices, and must have photography choices along the way. Communication was super important to us, as we were planning everything from another state, and didn't always have the time to travel back and forth.
Fast forward to the day of, and we really had a perfect wedding. The DJ played all our favorite & meaningful song choices. He really kept the party going. The photos all came back amazing. Everyone looked amazing, and they really captured every detail. It meant so much to us to have these memories captured, as there were people at our wedding who came from far away, who we don't see often. They really got pictures of everything. Coria was also quick to send us previews after the wedding, and update us about the progress of finishing the edits. We've already printed some out, and our family & friends couldn't be happier with how they look. If you want someone who keeps things easy, stress free, and fun, then Coria is your guy.
Planning a wedding can be extremely overwhelming, and choosing a good DJ is at the top of the list. We were thrilled with DJ Coria- from our first exchange to the day of he was ext...
remely professional, knowledgable, honest, fun and his personality made it an easy decision!
We couldn't have asked for a better evening. DJ Coria was punctual and set up both the ceremony and reception site with plenty of time to spare. Throughout the reception, not only did he control the flow of the evening through announcements in a tasteful manner, but he kept the dance floor moving to the very last song! He also took a few requests (with my consent) which made it even more fun for our guests. We were very pleased and would hire him again in a heartbeat!

event to make sure he knew every detail of how the night should go. He even left extremely early for my venue during a hurricane to make sure he was there on time. If that’s not a reason to pick him as your DJ, I don’t know what else is. He made our wedding memorable and I highly recommend him to anyone!

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Coria and the DJ services he provided for our wedding in October. He was patient with my list of songs I wanted played, allowed us to tex...

He really listed to my husband and I and took his time during our consultation and the several phone calls that took place. He even helped me plan a special dance in place of my father-daughter dance. I would recommend Coria and Melodies to Memories time and time again. You won't regret it!
He was absolutely outstanding!!!! He helped us through the whole process and kept the party going all night. I couldn’t have asked for better :-) thank you!

Everyone has enjoyed both!
