Mike is seriously the best! He was so patient with us being so adhd with our music selection. He also helped us when we got stuck on a few things, and even has a really handy worksheet to help organize what you want. Closer to the wedding, he e...
dited our music and sent it to us so we could practice with it at the rehearsal. Day of the wedding, the music was on point, crystal clear, and he knows how to read the room and keep everything "alive". We opted for the photo booth as well, and it was so fun being able to keep printed copies of everyone's photo's, as well as receive digital copies!
Really professional, thank you so much Mike!!!
WOW! FANTASTIC! We hired Mike to DJ my wife's surprise 50th birthday party on July 1, and we were absolutely ecstatic with what he provided. Mike not only expertly DJ'd our event, but provided lighting around the room, a killer photo booth that...
everyone loved, a video screen for our birthday slide show and Cameo video messages, and a complete game show setup with party guests as contestants. It was epic! Mike is highly professional, detail oriented, and genuinely cares about his customers and their guests. if you are in the DFW/North Texas area and need the best DJ, hire Mike Mahnich!!! Thank you, Mike, for making our birthday event a HUGE SUCCESS!!!
Mike was so much help during our wedding a few days ago. During the planning process, he made me feel comfortable to ask questions and would never make me feel like a bother when I would reach out. He was affordable (which was really important ...
to me).
Mike listens to what you want: music suggestions, wedding flow, and personal preferences. He will, also, make suggestions. He knows the industry and everything wedding. Our wedding would not have gone as smoothly as it wasn’t for Mike.
Any questions?
Everything was perfect, Mike is truly a professional!
This was our second time in 5 months that we hired mike to Dj our kids weddings. He does so much more than just Dj. His communication skills are excellent and he took care of more than just music. All I have to say is hire him! You will not be ...
disappointed!
Mike was awesome to work with. His pricing is more than fair and he helped us plan everything for the DJ part of the ceremony. I can't recommend him enough and he's a very nice guy. I will be hiring him for future events and will be recommendin...
g him to all our friends out in the Texas area.
HANDS DOWN THE BEST! Mike is the total package of what you want from a DJ. He can do it all. Just call him and within 5 min, you will be convinced he has all the talent and experience to make your event truly fun and special. He gets to ...
know you, and what you want! Don’t know exactly what you want? No problem, Mike will take time and suggest ideas helping you create your perfect party. Mike has a gift in sensing the crowd, knows how to draw them in, when to talk/announce, when to be in the background, how to help it flow just right, and energy!! He brings just the right amount of energy as the evening flows. We got so many compliments. He created the perfect atmosphere for my daughter's wedding! He’s not just the music….he’s the show!
Mike did a great job at our wedding. From the very beginning planning stages, he walked us through the entire process. He played a great selection during the reception and everyone had a great time. I would highly recommend hiring him for your...
wedding
Mike is definitely one of the best vendors we chose for our big day! He is so keen on detail, precision, and perception. He read our crowd very well and was able to ensure that guests of all ages were having a good time! He sincerely wants the ...
best for every couple and that is evident in all parts of the planning process with him. I will be recommending him to any and everyone who asks!
Out of all the people we sat down with no one had asked us what mood we wanted or even offered to come out to look at where we wanted to get married to get an idea of how to help us figure out music. We didn’t know where to begin but Mike sure ...
did help us with every step of the way.
Mike was an absolutely joy to work with! He made our day smooth and fun! The dance floor was lit up and full of smiles and fun!! He assisted us with lighting our event and it simply would not have been the same with all his jazz!!
Thank you M...
ike! Jared & I will always recommend you any chance we get! & hope to work with again in the future!
I'm so glad we went with Mike for our wedding! The whole process leading up to the big day was seamless having him. He is very experienced and it shows! I barely had to lift a finger. I was so nervous about music at the wedding because our crow...
d isn't huge dancers but everyone had so much fun and had such great things to say about Mike. We played the shoe game and I had forgotten about questions to ask and he already had a plan and questions ready to go plus some extra we asked to fill in which was such a big hit and so much fun! Couldn't recommend Mike enough!
We're a pair of older brides, and our wedding was a multi-cultural one.
Mike was an expert planner, and walked us through what he would need and when he would need it. He has a really great ceremony and reception planning packet (it would be ...
flawless if it were digitized & shareable for himself and the couple).
He was able to craft a reception that connected two different cultures, and we were so moved at how well he was able to incorporate meaningful touches (my sister's wedding processional song as a slow dance, Latin pop from the 1980s for family members, and a private final dance just for us while guests got ready for our final exit.)
Mike indulged my many, many questions and ultimately created a reception that had everybody celebrating. He even helped us place our DIY photo booth and made that a huge interactive hit. Our wedding photographer even used it!
We highly recommend him!
Mike was super fun and easy to work with! It was such an awesome experience and he timed all the music perfectly. I couldn't have asked for a better dj to help coordinate the wedding!
I started the journey of looking for a DJ thinking they are all the same right? Boy was I wrong! Mike was absolutely amazing from start to finish! He did a pre call with me to find out exactly what we wanted as far as traditions and what music ...
was a must have. In addition to that, he helped us set up our timeline for the whole wedding and reception. He hit literally every detail, even things I didn’t think much about at all, his experience really shined through. I’m so glad he guided us because it made for the most magical day! We can’t thank you enough for everything Mike! ❤️
Mike was AMAZING for our wedding. We got non-stop compliments the whole night about the music selection. Mike is a true professional and a delight to work with when planning an event. I also love that he has his own photobooth. the employee tha...
t came with him was great as well. All in all, I don't think you'll find a better DJ in the area than Mike. He is a must have at weddings.
I would gladly say that Mike is the reason my wedding went so smoothly. All the preplanning he did with us made me feel at ease as the day got closer, knowing exactly what was to happen. During the reception, he did everything we discussed and ...
more! Not only was he playing the best music, but he kept checking in with the groom and I to inform us of what is next or if we wanted any changes throughout the night. He also kept all those who were involved in reception activities, like parents and bridal party, updated throughout the night, without notice from guests, to help keep a calm, stress-free environment. I would recommend him to everyone and anyone! He truly tailors it all to what you envision and helps lay it all out before hand. Definitely need him as your master of ceremonies!! His photo booth is also a blast, which we got all the digital copies from afterwards, and he definitely helps lighting up the room with his lighting package.
Mike was fantastic!! From the wedding timeline to the actual day, Mike was such great help!
Mike was such an amazing DJ and truly made my wedding night so memorable. He was so helpful and responsive throughout the entire planning process and really went above and beyond to assist me with whatever I needed. Thank you Mike!!
Mike worked out 10/03/2020 wedding and he’s truly a gem. We had a smaller turnout than expected because of covid but he kept us happy and the wedding flowing very smoothly. He’s professional and definitely thinks of the fine details that you as...
a bride or groom may forget. He’s been around the block a time or two so he knows how to cater to your personal wants needs. Pick Mike because you won’t regret it! 💙
Mike went above and beyond our expectations and really helped make our wedding very special!! He was there for us every step of the way leading up to the wedding. He helped with many questions and concerns we had and even met with us at the r...
eception to go over some things. Then he did an absolutely amazing job during the reception and helped make it a really special moment!! We highly recommend using Mike!!!
Mike saved the day! I thought I could handle everything on my own but as our wedding day approached I realized that there was no way I could cue my own entrance music! Haha
With just a little over a week notice I was able to book Mike for our ...
wedding! He was so kind and reassuring. His forms are so helpful and easy to fill out. He has a wealth of experience and it shows. He asked all the right questions, even question I wouldn’t have even thought to ask. Mike checked in throughout our event to keep us on schedule while we enjoyed the moment. You are getting so much more than just a DJ when you hire Mike Mahnich. Highly recommend him for all events!
I am confident that Mike is the best DJ/MC you can find. Our wedding was socially distanced due to the pandemic and, not only that, but a pipe burst upstairs in our venue so we had to move everything downstairs, including all the sound equipmen...
t. In a day that was already super crazy and unpredictable, Mike did not miss a beat. He got everything moved and set up downstairs in record time and then moved it AGAIN once the upper floor had been mopped. Our guests never knew that something had gone wrong, and Mike kept the whole afternoon/night running smoothly. I am so glad we chose to hire him— the flat rate is so worth it when you take into account how unpredictable your special day might be! His slogan “Experienced, Professional, Fun” is super accurate and exactly what you should look for in a DJ/MC! Everyone at our wedding and reception had a great time listening to toasts and dancing the night away, and I recommend Mike’s services to anyone who wants an organized, smooth, and fun wedding day.
What an amazing experience witnessing Mike Mahnich work. He was able to promote the venue prior to the ceremony, AND he kept the ceremony and reception on time. He was prepared. Mike was such a professional, that he set up in a short amount ...
of time and his teardown was quick and efficient as well.
I recommend Mike Mahnich for your wedding/reception.
Mike was awesome! we saw him a friends wedding and booked him the next week for our wedding! then two of our friends booked him as well!! He will make your wedding perfect as he plays the role as the master of ceremonies so you dont have to wor...
ry about anything regarding music, timing, schedule etc! highly recommend Mike to anyone looking for the best DJ! Cheers!
This guy is super fun and super professional. I’ve seen him at work numerous times in the past years and it’s always a fantastic experience. DJ/MC services are something you want done well.
This guy can spin em and he is quite organized, under...
standing and accommodating.
When Mikes on the job you’ll never need to worry about your big day! I would snd do refer him to people all the time.
Mike was GREAT! He was always available to answer questions or set up extra phone calls. We did not have a day of coordinator so Mike was extremely helpful in running our reception. We would recommend Mike to anyone looking for a fun, reliable,...
and helpful MC and would definitely hire him again!
I know first-hand how intimidating it is finding all the right vendors for your wedding. I mean the day has to be PERFECT, right? Well I can honestly say you can stop your search for a wedding DJ and hire Mike! He is an all-in-one DJ and Master...
of Ceremonies, meaning he will help with all the announcements and keep your reception on schedule without you even having to think about it! He is super friendly and genuinely cares about the bride and groom having the perfect night. He even helped us set up our slide show and set up some awesome up-lighting for the finishing touch on our room. He kept us on the dance floor all night and played a little bit for all our age groups to make sure every guest was having a good time! He was very easy to work with and met with us in person, on the phone, through text, or whatever worked best for this stressed out bride! Haha! And the icing on the cake was his pricing! His services are very reasonably priced for the service he delivers. I could go on and on, but just hire DJ Mike to find out for yourself! You won't be disappointed! :)
We met Mike at another friend's wedding in Aug. 2018. We were impressed by his attention to detail and extensive planning guide. Our wedding was Oct. 2019. We booked him and are so glad we did! For us, we felt like we had a bit of a wedding pl...
anner rolled into Mike. He has worked so many weddings that he was able to objectively provide some insights on the pros and cons of certain choices for our wedding. Mike is so personable and was on point in so many ways. His planner really helped us plan ahead and thoroughly consider the flow of our wedding from start to finish. I had several guests compliment us on our DJ following the wedding. Would highly recommend!
Mike Mahnich was absolutely amazing! His communication and professionalism from start to finish was outstanding. He led us through the wedding planning process and provided more guidance and suggestions than the best wedding planner possibly ...
could have. He was an excellent Master of Ceremonies at the reception, played fun music and made the entire event a huge success! The photo booth and staff were very popular with our guests and added so much to the evening including a lasting record of the fun everyone had. Thank you, Mike! You were the best investment we could have made for Jenna & Brandon’s wedding!
His DJ skill is top notch but he really pulls the events entertainment together. Even a simple banquet becomes exciting and feels extravagant!
Mike was challenged with entertaining a mixed group of folks from Colombia and the US; he did not disappoint. With some coordination, Mike was ready with a solid playlist and entertained the group for the entire evening. Mike is friendly, ent...
ertaining, and will play music that will keep your group on the dance floor. We’re definitely going to use him again.
Mike is the best! Highly recommend!
Mike is a fantastic DJ and MC. He is great with clients and reads the crowd perfectly to make sure that the attendees have the best experience possible. I would highly recommend Mike for any event you were planning. He will not disappoint!
Mike was awesome. From start to finish, he was a pleasure to work with: professional, friendly, and SO helpful . We had an unconventional wedding reception, and I really appreciated Mike's guidance re: the schedule of events, song selection, ...
etc. He made the wedding planning process stress-free, and truly honored our "wedding vision." We couldn't have been happier with how everything turned out.
If you're looking for a DJ for your wedding, look no further! We got married in May, and Mike was such a huge part of making the wedding a success. He first stuck out to me during our vendor search early in our planning, because he was so perso...
nable and professional. Just in speaking with him over the phone I could tell that he was going to do an awesome job. His communication between "signing" with him and the actual wedding night was always super quick, friendly, and professional. We then met with him for our main planning meeting about a month or two out from our date. He was super flexible with his time, and even went out of his way to meet with us on a week night after we got off work in downtown Dallas. Needless to say, we were extremely stressed out about the wedding, but Mike made us feel so much more confident and comfortable about the whole thing. He truly helped pull our "day of" plan together. He offered well-thought-out opinions and tips, that I honestly think would rival many actual wedding planners. He perfectly balanced our ideas and vision with the practicality of his experience.
Mike ran the show on our wedding day... he was a true "master of ceremonies", and not just a guy that played some music. He was seriously perfect! He was fun, flexible, professional... I honestly can't say enough good things about him. I will recommend him any chance that I get, and hope he knows how glad we were to have him as part of our wedding. Thanks Mike!
It's really hard to write this review because I can't say enough nice things about Mike. He was very professional and went above and beyond for us. Any time we had a question he was always very responsive. The evening went smoothly because he s...
at down with us for a long time and planned out all the details. He also adapts to unexpected conditions and last-minute tweaks. Ideally a couple should only ever have to plan one wedding in their entire life which means neither of them will be professionals at it. Mike can assist with this by sharing his experience and expertise. He is seriously a relief amongst the stress that goes into all the planning.
On top of all that his music choices were fantastic and the lighting was just amazing. We loved the monogram and it looked awesome above the arch we built for the night.
We could not be happier. What a lovely night and a lot of that is thanks to Mike!
We attended our friends' wedding and took notice that Mike did a great job of keeping it on track and really directing it naturally. We quickly realized that his experience as "master of ceremonies" would be extremely valuable, so we had to boo...
k him for our wedding this past April as well.
Mike is truly worth every penny, and is very detail-oriented. He took the time to chat with us and get to know us, and made sure that we thought through every detail of the wedding, providing questionnaires that helped us brainstorm on our own time as well. It felt like a true collaboration as we bounced ideas off each other, and he had the song-editing skills to make our ideas come to life in a way we could never have done by ourselves or with a part-time DJ.
Much like at our friends' wedding, at ours he was an essential element, and had an uncanny ability to move guests naturally where they needed to be. Thank you so much, Mike, for helping make our wedding perfect - we couldn't have done it without you!
Mike was absolutely amazing. We had to come up with a way to have a fun Star Wars/Harry Potter Wedding for us and classy wedding for our family. He helped us navigate the whole experience. He was so talented in music selection and making sur...
e they night flowed perfectly.
Mike Mahnich rules! We hired Mike for our wedding in 2014, and he surpassed all of our expectations. From the beginning, he was prepared, punctual and very knowledgeable about his craft. He respected what we wanted, and helped us customize our ...
entire experience based on that. And when we needed help, or didn't know what to expect, Mike's experience helped guide our decisions. His planning of the event put us at ease too. Before the big day, we did a walkthrough of the venue with Mike to help him create his plans for the sound and lighting, which ultimately kept the ceremony moving, so everything felt natural. The thing about great design is that it goes unnoticed. Mike gets it. Hiring him reduced stress, and let us concentrate on being happy on our wedding day.
Awesome experience all around. And cherry on top, I reached out to Mike almost 5 years later to help me recreate our wedding playlist, and he sent the files over within a day. Amazing!
Mike was fantastic in every sense of the word! We are total planners, and he was phenomenal at helping us map out the entire ceremony and reception from start to finish. He was fun, involved, and willing to make sure that the flow of the evenin...
g kept the guests entertained throughout. The dance floor was packed all night, and everybody loved the photo booth!
Mike was our single best vendor. He is the pinnacle of professionalism. His organization did not corner us into forced situations but instead helped to reveal what our specific needs were in order to make our event perfect for us.
Mike handled the wedding like a professional. He took control and gave us confidence that things were under control with nothing to worry about. All of our guest enjoyed the event and the dance floor was full throughout the night which means th...
e music was always spot on. Thanks again Mike!

Mike was absolutely AMAZING! I was in charge of planning my parents 30th Wedding Anniversary. It was quite a challenge for one person and finding the right people to partner with is a daunting task. When I found Mike and reached out to him he w...
as extremely personable, very polite and kind. He worked with me and my parents to ensure their big day went flawlessly. He thought of things that I never considered and made recommendations that helped us tremendously. I will personally use him for my big day. Go with Mike, Listen to Mike. He is great and knows his stuff
WE LOVE MIKE! He worked with me to cut and edit music to help me make my ceremony exacly what I had always pictured! There was no fading in and fading out starting from the top of the song. He made sure he got my favorite parts of each song syn...
ced up with when I wanted it to play. It truly made a difference in the flow and mood of the ceremony. Then, the reception was a PARTY! He really read the floor and changed/kept songs based off of how much fun people were having. He was easy to work with, quick to respond, and was more than willing to drive my way for a meeting. He is kind and fun. A great combo to have around you during a stressful and special time!
Mike is a phenomenal DJ! From start to finish, you can rest assured that Mike will take care of things. His lighting and music are tailored to your needs and he seems to know exactly what songs to play and when.
Mike is so amazing! He basically was our coordinator on our wedding day. Everything went so smooth and I have so much gratitude for all he did for us! Thank you!!!
Mike is great! He is very organized, great communicator, and keeps people on the dance floor! He listens to what you want and executes it. We have received several compliments and all thanks to him! Highly recommend!
THE BEST EVER!!! I was recommended to Mike by word of mouth and was not disappointed. Maybe he does this for all of his clients (probably) but he makes you feel like he goes above and beyond just for you! He's got experience, a lot of knowledge...
and know how that he wants to share so that you can make your wedding day, your wedding day. He is respectful and thoughtful on how you want your day to go. He is laid back and interested in what you have to say. He plans it so well that you really don't have to worry about anything!He really takes the pressure off of you to have an immediate answer for everything. He took time to edit and string together music for us (It was PERFECT) and even gave us a copy! He was always in contact if I had a question. My guests loved him, and we certainly were Blessed to have him be our MC. It wouldn't have been as amazing if it hadn't been for him! Thank you!!!!!
Mike was amazing! The planning that he goes over made the whole wedding go smooth as glass. Everybody had a great time and many guests said our wedding was the best one they had ever been to. Mike knows his stuff and he knows how to tailor m...

Response from the Vendor on 11/30/2017
Skye is correct in her assessment. Her 2016 wedding was so beautiful and fun. A perfect outdoor setting. But I did move in the weeks prior which possibly caused some slow communication. The wedding ceremony and reception ran very well and ...
was a lot of fun. Please note that this was over a year ago and I am no longer experiencing such issues. Just after the wedding they sent me this kind note in 2016:
Mike,
After going through all of the post wedding tasks, I was finishing up the last of our thank you notes when I realized that we don't have an address for you so that we could send you a thank you note in the mail! I hope this email will suffice. We are so very grateful for the time and effort you put in to meeting us, correspondence, and spending so much time before and during our wedding to make our special day- special. You were so wonderful and we truly appreciate your hard work. We hope to someday see you again!
Sincerely,
Cody & Skye
Mike did an exceptional job of running the whole evening to our specifications!! Great music, flow and entertainment!! So happy we chose him!
Mike was amazing! Not only is he a great DJ but he is also so knowledgeable on how wedding receptions should flow. He had so many great ideas for us and made the night run so smoothly and so carefree for everyone! He has excellent communication...
skills and really puts everything he has into his work and making your special day so great! Best decision we ever made!
Mike is a true professional and he even helped me with a malfunctioning bow tie! Mike saved the day!
The marriage was short lived, but the DJ was on point!
Awesome Job! took the reigns so we could enjoy the day. very professional and we could not have had a better experience.
Mike was our DJ and MC for our Arboretum wedding and did a FANTASTIC job! Mike spent a good amount of time pre-event getting to know Greg and I and understanding the flow and genre of music we would be happy with during the reception. He's n...
ot only a talented a DJ & MC, but also a kind compassionate person who truly cares. Highly recommend!
Great guy to work with , loved his personality and professionalism !
We absolutely LOVED Mike! We could not have asked for a better DJ for our wedding. He was super attentive to all of our needs, and worked diligently with us on helping us fit all of our favorite songs into the mix. He will go above and beyond a...
ny expectations and make your day unforgettable!
I have been to plenty of weddings, and have heard many horror stories about the DJs doing what they want instead of what they're paid to do. Not Mike! He met with us weeks before our wedding to get to know us and our personalities. Asked us ton...
s of questions and was very attentive. Most grooms don't have much say in the music selection, but that was not the case here. We got what we wanted played and much more. Loved the experience. He made our day that much more special.
You won't regret investing in Mike Mahnich! He's so much more than a DJ. And is a total pro. Not to mention a lot of fun!
Mike provided the lighting for the overall theme of the party, transforming a plain white room into a party destination w...
ith a warm glow that made all our photos and the evening that much more magical. There was also special lighting for different moments in the evening that gave it a real pop.
Besides setting the stage, he puts the effort in beforehand to figure out the styles of music that really suite you. All night long we had people running up and telling us how great our DJ was!
Then there's the handling of your relatives. Mike helps you put together an itinerary for the evening, and then flawlessly executes it so you can spend your time enjoying your special evening. Somehow he wrangled all my relatives to the place they needed to be, while simultaneously keeping the music and good times rolling.
With Mike on your team, your guests are sure to have a blast. Don't think twice. Just hire him! :)
Mike is the ultimate master of ceremonies! The best wedding DJ in the whole metroplex! He's a real expert at controlling the crowd and setting up for a great and rememberable night. Played all the music I asked for and engaged the audience to d...

Mike was the DJ at my daughter's wedding last weekend. He was fun, friendly, interactive, and did everything that we asked him to do and more. People were having fun all the way to the last dance of the night! Thank you for making it so memora...
ble!
Mike was great to work with all through our planning! We were all hesitant at first booking a DJ - we thought that maybe we didn't need one. Looking back, we now see how crazy we were! Mike did not just give us music for our ceremony and recept...
ion, but he also did the lighting and sound set up for THREE DIFFERENT ROOMS! He was also the Master of Ceremony for most of the night, ushering guests from one room to another. He stayed from start to finish and was always on top of everything. He made sure our schedule and timeline was on and that we were happy with where we were at all times. He made sure that the guests were happy and having fun! The night would not have been the same without him!
My now-Husband (as well as our parents) were more than pleased with DJ Mike. He knew exactly what he was doing (hence the "Master of Ceremony" title) and was constantly keeping us updated on the timeline. I would use him again in a heartbeat!
Fantastic DJ! Also pretty much a planner/master of ceremonies as well. We didn't have to really do anything other than follow along at the reception. The entire evening went very smoothly and everyone had a great time!
Mike was very friendly both times me and my husband met with him. He was very knowledgable about this industry and helped us plan our our music for the ceremony and reception. A few of my guests including family members were not so pleased with...
everything at the reception, they felt like they had been responded to with a "rude" demeener but I did not experience that.
Response from the Vendor on 06/15/2013
On file with me at my website (http://mikemahnich.com/references) is an excellent video review of this bride and groom expressing their happiness and gratitude as to how well things went the night of their wedding. Amanda is a very kind person...
and it should be noted that her comments above are accurate in that she did not experience any rude behavior from me.
I can, however, comment that the staff at the facility was likely the rudest and possibly most unaccommodating I have ever worked with. This could easily be confused by the guests as being me, but I can assure you that it was not. :^)
At this event, the unfortunate guests were at the mercy of a wedding coordinator that was in no condition to be working an event of this type (in fact she stated that she was in pain and under doctor's orders not to stand for extended periods). The facility/coordinator was in charge of the timeline and flow of the reception (not me), and the coordinator relegated me to the “DJ Booth” for almost the entire night.
I do my best to shield my brides & grooms from problems or issues that arise during the course of a wedding reception. Weddings have many moving parts and things certainly do not always go as planned. I can tell you that a positive attitude usually trumps a grump, but sometimes the negativity brought into the mix by “professionals” who really do not want to be there can be felt by guests.
I see it as a privilege to be a part of someone's wedding and always strive to do my best to make sure that my part honors their wishes and has the happy and joyous attitude that a wedding deserves. I am happy to have been a part of the Larry’s wedding and wish them the very best!
DJ Mike was AWESOME at our wedding! DJ Mike was recommended to us through our venue and we are so happy they did! We planned our wedding through 3 states, as we had limited face-to-face time with military obligations, but that didn't seem to ma...
tter when working with DJ Mike. We worked through email, text, and phone calls and met him for the first time the day of the wedding! Everything was all ready to go, just as we had discussed, and nothing but perfect! DJ Mike didn't just stop with music, he was very attentive and sincerely cared about how the night went and everything just seemed to flow so well with his help! DJ Mike is everything you could every want & more in a DJ/MC!! Highly recommend!
I did not hire a coordinator so Mike being the DJ for our reception was absolutely perfect. He was very organized and gives wonderful advice for weddings and really knows how to run things smoothly. I still hear about how wonderful he was and...
that was 8 months ago! I am so blessed that I came across Mike! Mike....thanks for being so awesome and making our reception a blast. I was just telling my friends and coworkers about how much fun we had! No stress....just fun!!! HIRE MIKE!!!! You will not regret it!!!!
I was completely satisfied with Mike as my DJ. He was professional and personal without being over the top. He was able to direct the attention effectively and helped me day to run smoothly.

As a full-time entertainer, I believe it is a privilege to be a part of so many meaningful, once-in-a-lifetime events.
My role as DJ & Master Of Ceremonies is to make sure that my clients understand that music is just a part of the overall entertainment experience. The flow and order of events are impacted by the MC as well. I specialize in weddings and have been part of more than 2,000 over a long period of time. That's why I use the slogan:
Experienced * Professional * Fun!
Please call or text me anytime day or night at 214-499-5425 and let's talk about your special day!
