Matt Ryan Mobile DJ Entertainment

d and let loose, but he also provided relaxing jazz music during our cocktail hour. Our wedding and reception were both in one location, so it was very important to us that our guests were always entertained in some fashion. Matt was able to customize a perfect playlist based on our likes and dislikes, and he was open to suggestion during our pre-wedding planning. Matt made our wedding day as seamless as possible and made the night one to remember.

. He was a pleasure to work with and was open to all and any ideas that we had. The day of the wedding he kept the party going all night long. I would recommend Matt to anyone in the future.

n. I was initially against using a DJ, and preferred a live Band. That's because there are so many bad DJ's out there, and everybody has a "Friend" or "Family Member" who DJ's, and they end up at your Reception and ruin it. The success of your Reception will largely come down to the Dance and Party AFTER Dinner. And THIS is why you need Matt. We discovered Matt through a friend and the reviews of his work were amazing, so we employed him for our first wedding. A good DJ is worth every dime spent. And, in the grand scheme of the overall wedding expenses, Matt Ryan is a small component, cost-wise, but was so important. All of the following are truly key descriptors for Matt: Professional . . . Skilled . . . . Incredibly Organized . . . Very Well Planned, including the months LEADING up to the Wedding . . . . Musical Master. Matt has a Planning Website that is chock full of interactive planning with the Bride and Groom, where you can list songs you WANT, songs you DON'T want, songs you MUST have. Your entire schedule to the minute will be on your Planning Website. Matt lists the Names of everyone in your wedding party, with phonetic spelling, etc., so there is none of the embarrassment that often happens with names. Perhaps most importantly, Matt knows how to keep the party moving (we even had to extend our Reception Room Contract time because the party just kept going). Matt's knowledge of music, knowledge of how to get a party going, knowledge of how to KEEP a party GOING, knowledge of where the wheels will fall off . . . all of it . . . is extremely valuable. There is a major difference between hiring your Cousin and hiring a professional DJ. And, in Columbus and Central Ohio, Matt is the best. Matt knows DJ'ing, at a professional level. Truly, you can leave the whole Music and Emcee scene to Matt, and consider it in good hands. Hire Matt, and spend your time worrying about other parts of Your Day.

the vendor to choose! I highly highly recommend Matt Ryan!

ocess of selecting music and preparing for announcements and introductions very easy. He truly made our wedding a fun time and our guests loved the variety of music he provided. I received a lot of comments that night from guests, sharing that they thought our DJ was awesome! We agree!

lly helped mold the whole vibe of the wedding with his announcements and personality.

ull of people dancing all night! He played a good mix of older and more current music so our guests of all ages found something they enjoyed and were able to dance to their favorite songs. It was a great night and the music was fantastic!

ngs we wanted to be played for parts of the day involving music (first dances, cake cutting, etc.). The form has a section where we could specify songs we liked and disliked, and Matt creates a playlist based off of that information. Matt also allows guests to make requests both prior to the wedding via an online form and during the wedding as dancing takes place. We loved that Matt was the type of DJ who helped the night run smoothly, meaning he informed guests of only pertinent information, like when the first dances were occurring and how our big exit would take place. Other than that, he let the party happen organically and blended into the night, simply providing the soundtrack and making sure everyone had a good time by playing their requests. He gave us professional advice on which type of sound equipment would be needed and which location would need it, and he also arrived at our venue two hours in advance of being needed to meet with the venue coordinators and to set up his equipment. Every email we sent was responded to within 24 hours, often within minutes of sending it. Our meetings were easy and straightforward. If you're looking for a DJ who will facilitate a party but still appears to have a hands off approach, Matt is your guy. During the day of the wedding, Matt would come to me to let me know what time it was and that it was time to transition to the next event. He would double check with me to make sure he carried out instructions correctly. He was the perfect DJ and we can't say enough great things about him! Thanks, Matt and Zach, for making our reception fun for all!

day timeline and made us feel very prepared for our wedding day. Our guests loved the music that was played! He even provides a package with a photo booth, and it was such a great decision to add that in. The props were fantastic and we used the included photo album as our guest book. Everyone loved it!

clients happy while creating quality work. We were able to tailor the ceremony details exactly how we wanted, song by song, because this was important to us. We left the reception song choices up to his read of the crowd and I'm glad we did. The dance floor was moving all night long!

ic - a mix of current hits, jazz standards, and even obscure songs we requested. I didn't think we'd have much of a dancing crowd at the wedding, but it was a dance party from start to finish! We had the best time at our reception, Matt Ryan is exceptional!

ng me what he thought might be "over the top" for us, he's a consummate professional, and I have already recommended him to everyone I know who might need a DJ in the future. He came with "party starters," 3 guys who encouraged the kids to get out on the dance floor, helped my daughter pick out games, gave out prizes, and kind of became a "family friend." We intend to use his business for any future parties, and I can't say enough good things about him. You cannot go wrong with Matt Ryan!

ght amount of involvement to keep our event on the timeline! Throughout our planning process, Matt worked with us to schedule meetings, often outside of his normal hours to work with our schedule and was always very timely with getting back to our emails which when you're planning a wedding takes the stress off a lot! We would definitely recommend him to anyone planning a wedding in the Columbus area :)

or the rest of the night. They helped us stay on time, but also went with what we wanted. They took some crazy requests (like my husband lip-synching to Kanye West) and made it a blast. This company knows how to make any event special and I would reccommend them to anyone.

ng of our reception and everything went flawless. All of our bridal party was introduced correctly and our guests never left the dance floor. We chose not to fill out the must play and do not play list for Matt. We are happy that we did not spend time doing that because Matt played the perfect mix and all our guests had a great time!

edding a great time!

as great! We met with him ahead of time and he was great with getting back to me about my right away with answers to my questions and suggestions for different ideas.

hout the entire reception. Alex did a fantastic job with the order of events as well as keeping everyone on the dance floor. If a song was played and there wasn't a great response from the guests, he would change it immediately...sign of great attention to detail and a great DJ! Because of this, our dance floor was packed the entire night!

tmosphere you want. They have multiple DJs so you don't have to worry about the DJ getting sick or having a last minute conflict. Our DJ for the night was Boomer, and he was absolutely perfect. We got to meet with Boomer a few weeks before the wedding to go over how we wanted the night to go. He was a great MC, and his music selection was exactly what we wanted. He had everyone from age 3 to age 86 out on the dance floor! You can trust Matt Ryan and his staff to make your wedding reception fun for everyone!

Everyone was on the dance floor, young and old alike. He met a couple weeks prior to the wedding with the Bride and Groom. Matt made sure the dinner music provided a soft background and people could still have table conversation without shouting. We had a special Father- daughter dance that was a bit untraditional. Matt took care of the music and made the dance over the top fun! I would recommend Matt Ryan and his company to anyone. We loved him!

one on track, from the toasts, dances, cake etc... well, Matt Ryan is wonderful. We had no concerns whatsoever as to how the evening would run. Between our reception venue (NorthPointe) and Matt , they had the evening planned out and all we had to do was show up. Matt walked us all through a schedule at the final meeting a couple of weeks before the wedding with our Bride and Groom, and explained what he would be doing, and really listened to what we needed. The music choices were perfect for cocktail hour, and the reception music was the best. The sound equipment, top notch, so perfect. He is professional, got the party going big time, and we all had such a fantastic time. Matt is a classy guy and we appreciated everything he did. We had an awesome night, didn't have to worry about a thing. Thanks so much!

anted. I'm grateful to Matt for making our wedding reception perfect!

is such a wonderful person with high energy - everyone was raving about the music and how great of a job you guys did! As for Cameron, I absolutely loved when I looked over at one point and he is behind the booth dancing himself. They oth were just laughing and having a good time! When I saw that it just told me these guys were there to have a good time too and not just their to do a job and that means more than anything!!! Again, I can't thank them enough!!! Excellent job!!!!!! There's only one dj company in Columbus that is getting our recommendation and that's you guys!!!

our wedding, even parts I didnt think about needing music for. We werent too picky with our music choices and told him he could just play what he thought was best! Our reception was amazing, not only did he play great music and kept everyone dancing. He also did an amazing job with introductions, announcing cake cutting, etc. We would recommend Matt Ryan to everyone!

!

verything was perfect.

Boomer came up with a fun mix of new and old songs that every guest could dance to, whether young or old. Everyone commented that it was the best part of the wedding and I agree that they couldn't have done better. I would book this venue for any event!

ter booking where you can start to add songs, request songs, add the little details (first dances etc), and even make a "do not play" list. My actual DJ was Bryan Marburger and he was really helpful in meeting with us, dealing with last minute changes. He had the perfect amount of interaction with the crowd and was helpful with moving the event along. Our entire reception was basically one big dance party once the music got going - he played exactly what music we asked him to play and the night was perfect!

him because he made me think everything through and I got everything that I wanted out of a DJ.

nteractive.

couple of times and got things all set. They have wonderful ideas and are very helpful for anything you are struggling on. We also didn't want a DJ who 'stole the show' and was on his mic all night and they definitely were NOT that. THe played great music and we danced until the place shut us down. I absolutley recommend them for your event.

ss and a night to remember for all of our guests. I would highly recommend this company to anyone. Hands down, they are very professional, well organized and a great company to work with.

make sure your reception is the most fun party in town! There was never a dull moment at our reception and our friends and family couldn't stop raving about the DJs! Thanks SOOOO much!!!!!!

e. They are very professional, and will contact you throughout the entire process.

our actual date. We had many guests who were so impressed with the music during the reception.

feel like they were there for whatever we needed.
