Our DJ was GLeNN BLaKK for our wedding and he did an incredible job. He is a true professional in his craft. He listened to our suggestions and put his own personal twist on things making it even better. He made the experience unforgettable.
Glenn Blakk MADE our wedding day! All our guests loved the vibe and we were on the dance floor all night long. Everyone at Mike Sipe is professional and ensured our wedding was exactly how we envisioned it. Make sure you book Glenn if you want the dance floor to be packed all night long.
We used DJ GLeNN BLaKK at our wedding this past weekend. We couldn’t have imagined a better person to keep our guests entertained! He was very professional in terms of organization and smoothly transitioned from the entrance of our bridal party, to our first dance, into the speeches, dinner, and then dancing. He had this energy that encouraged people to gather to the dance floor and stay there. He played songs my husband and I loved without us even providing a complete playlist. He took the time to get to know us and developed a playlist that won our appreciation and that of our guests. He’s very kind, talented, and accommodating. He even wore a kippah for our ceremony which he didn’t have to do, but we appreciated very much!
GLeNN BLaKK (DJ/MC), Dom (Sax), & Mario (Drums)—our wedding DREAM TEAM. Professional, knowledgeable, energetic, and SO MUCH FUN. We appreciated the opportunity to meet with Glenn a few times prior to our wedding to go over details and make sure we were comfortable moving forward. He listened to our ideas, offered his suggestions, and assured us that our wedding would be a party to remember. Glenn did an excellent job when it came to reading the vibe of our guests and playing all the right music (including incorporating our Greek must-plays). THANK YOU GLENN, DOM, & MARIO, for a night we will never forget!
Highly recommend DJ Ivanco as a wedding DJ! He was professional throughout the planning process and was so fun during our wedding reception. We received many compliments on Ivanco from our guests who has the best time dancing to his music. We also hired a live musician to play during our wedding ceremony, and they did a beautiful job. Mike Sipe does a great job keeping everything organized and timely leading up to the wedding. We would highly recommend the company for all entertainment needs!
We used DJ GLeNN BLaKK and cannot recommend him more!! We had multiple people come up to us during the wedding raving about him as well! He also did a great job with our family names (not the easiest names) and really listened to our song preferences and how to make the night flow with the timeline we envisioned! We highly recommend DJ GLeNN BLaKK!!
We had DJ Siilva for our wedding this October and he was absolutely fantastic! So hospitable, gave us exactly what we wanted, and people were on the dance floor the whole night. I had some many mention what a great DJ we had at our wedding and how it's was the best wedding they've ever been to!
Incredible company to work with! High level of communication and professionalism. We used Jane for our violinist, and DJ Famous for our DJ host the day of our wedding. Both are extremely talented and brought our vision to life for our special day! Also, all the staff members in the office that we spoke to were incredibly kind and helpful.
We requested Ivanco, and he was fantastic! A friend had even changed her wedding date to have him, so we knew we were in good hands. The company made everything easy, from the booking process to payments. Two weeks before the wedding, we had a detailed meeting to finalize everything, and I provided timestamps for a few key songs. On the big day, everything went smoothly – Ivanco was punctual, flawless, and kept the energy high. He was a pleasure to work with, truly appreciated, and made our wedding unforgettable. Highly recommend!
This is seriously one of the best vendor we worked with during our entire wedding process. They were so helpful and guided you in the best way based off your needs and wants and not based off what they wanted to push on you. They were the only vendor I worked with that was upfront about the exact amount included tax etc. they left nothing out so the price they told you was what you saw at the end. They were transparent and helpful. I worked with Alexander Padei and he was INCREDIBLE people raved about him and the 2 live musicians. He stopped at nothing and made a vision I couldn’t put into words come to life!
Everybody knows how important great music and an awesome MC are at a wedding. When doing research for ours, Ray Costa and Mike Sipe Entertainment came highly recommended. And let me tell you, they did NOT disappoint! From our very first meeting, the professionalism and attention to detail was evident. My husband and I flirted with the idea of a band but ultimately decided on the fusion option of a DJ with a sax and percussion live component. Everyone was so in sync the entire time and kept our dance floor so lively! We gave a few must plays but we ultimately trusted Ray and his team and they absolutely delivered. The party didn’t stop and nobody left the dance floor for 2 hours straight. I think most of our guests missed our late night food station as no one wanted to leave the dance floor! We can’t say enough great things about Ray and Mike Sipe Entertainment. They made our night one that we will never forget. Would absolutely hire again!!
We had a challenging wedding day with weather and Ray turned it all around on the dance floor with hit after hit after hit - our wedding was comprised of only Spanish speaking guests and English only speaking guests and EVERYONE had an amazing time and couldn’t stop raving about how great he was at finding the right music for everyone to dance to and enjoy. As the couple getting married, we walked into this process without a ton of planning experience and Ray really instilled confidence in us and guided us through it all. We felt incredibly comfortable with him the entire time which goes such a long way when you’re making important and costly decisions throughout the wedding process. Hiring Ray was the easiest decision we made because we felt so confident he would set the right tone for our event and he over delivered. Truth be told, we would do it again in a heart beat! Don’t give it another thought and put your trust in Ray and Mike Sipe Entertainment for the best night of your life!
Mike Sipe Entertainment is the way to go for your music on your wedding day. We had DJ Ray Costa dj our wedding and he is legitimately the BEST in the biz. From the start of meeting him, you could tell he is professional, passionate, and reliable. He can customize your music any way you want and does so flawlessly! Our guests were dancing till the very end of the night. 1000% could not recommend Mike Sipe Entertainment or DJ Ray Costa enough!! Don’t question it - just hire them!!!
Our wedding was on April 25 2024 at Villa Woodbine in Miami and there are truly not the words to explain how amazing and how grateful we are for having Ray Costa as our dj. He went ABOVE AND BEYOND our expectations and absolutely killed it. Ray knew exactly our vision of the vibe for the night. We told him we wanted our wedding to just feel like a big dance party with friends- and he absolutely delivered. Every single guest from our wedding had something amazing to say about Ray and how he kept every guest on the dance floor all night. Last minute few days before the wedding I wanted to add a few extra things to my package, and Ray was so honest about some things. We are so so thankful for the Mike Sipe team and for Ray. You made our day so memorable. THANK YOU SO MUCH!
Glenn Blakk was the ultimate professional throughout the whole process. From the pre-wedding meeting getting to know our story and making us feel comfortable to delivering an absolute electric atmosphere on our wedding night, he provided a 10/10 experience for my wife and I. Would recommend him to anyone looking to have an amazing event.
Dom on the Sax and Mari on the drums were also incredible!
Mike Sipe Entertainment was a recommended vendor from our venue and now we know why! My husband and I first interacted with Ray who was very professional and personable. I told Ray that we wanted aspects of live music and a DJ at our wedding and he was able to make all of our wishes come true within our budget. Our DJ was DVNY and he was the best. My husband and I had a zoom call with DVNY prior to our wedding and we could tell he was going to be amazing. He totally understood our music taste and took it to another level on wedding night. Everyone was out on the dance floor. DVNY’s transitions were so smooth and we had to pull people off the dance floor at the end of the night. After our wedding, everyone told us our DJ was the highlight of the night. I spoke quite a bit with Mackenzie leading up to the wedding. She was so kind, responsive, and professional. We are so grateful to DVNY and the whole team at Mike Sipe for making our wedding day dreams come true.
Mike Sipe Entertainment was amazing and easy to work with. We hired DJ Glenn Black for our wedding and he was fantastic. He played the correct music and everyone was eager to dance on the dance floor! Would definitely recommend this company for your entertainment needs.
We spoke to Ray from the get and it was just a relief to know we had one less vendor to worry about. We really wanted to work with them and they were willing to work with our budget. Ray was very attentive and very communicative. He instantly recommend DJ Siilva for our needs.
DJ Siilva really stepped up for us, he delivered on our requests and then some.
Music selection kept our dancefloor packed all night.
The light equipment, although minimal it was more than sufficient for our size of venue (The Biltmore Hotel).
It was such a good time that we went over the time with pleasure.
Our wedding was on 2/24/24 and not one person has stopped talking about the Mike Sipe Team. We worked with Ray Costa from day one and chose Musicology. It was truly a dream. He was up front about what things would cost, made suggestions as to what to spend our money on based on our vision and what to skip. That aspect is so important to us based on the fact that the professionals do this every weekend and they know what makes for a great event.
Ray asked questions, got to know us, listened to what vibe we wanted and then completely exceeded expectations. And I MEAN COMPLETELY!!! We never worried about one thing. They even worked on some special requests and surprises with us.
Choosing the Sipes means not only the DJ or band of your choice. They send an entire ENEGETIC team who makes it their sole priority to make you and your guests feel like your event is the only event they have for the entire year. Ray does an incredible job of reading the room and keeping the vibe at a level 10 especially when some moments can get awkward or slow. There was not one down moment. Even when people were eating, most of the couples got up to slow dance, even though that wasn't the plan. It was absolute perfect. 100% of our guests (many from South Florida who go to a ton of weddings) said it was the best wedding they had EVER been to. Ray worked perfectly with our vendors, our planner, our bridal party. I simply don't have enough words to express how amazing and fun the entire team was. The band members were on the dance floor, we were up on stage. People who don't normally dance were dancing. It was INCREDIBLE.
My new husband does not dance and he said, "Get Ray to pencil us in for your birthday because I would have paid double for the night he created for us." Don't skimp on entertainment and if you want your guests to rave about your night for years to come, trust me CHOOSE THE SIPE TEAM. They have become friends and I am so sad that I am not speaking to them now like I did on a weekly basis. TRULY the best and I can't wait for the next event. Time is all you have and if memories is what you want to create, this team is who you choose.
WOW!!! Our guest have not stopped talking about our band/DJ from the wedding. We did DJ Ivanco with a drummer and saxophone..... unreal. Our dancefloor was packed ALL NIGHT. We had the time of our lives. Ivanco was a dream to work with. We already have friends that have booked them after attending our wedding. A MUST. BOOOK THEM!!!!! DJ Ivanco >>>>
DJ DNNY of Mike Sipe Events & Productions was the DJ for our wedding and we highly recommend them! Our wedding planner gave us several recommendations for a DJ and, while Mike Sipe Events wasn’t the cheapest on the list, they were well worth the money. While we were making our decision on a DJ we had dinner with another couple who were recently married and we told them we needed to select a DJ soon. Before we even mentioned Mike Sipe Events, they told us they used them for their wedding and they very strongly recommended we go with Mike Sipe Events because of the excellent job they did at their wedding. That sealed it for us. DJ DNNY handled the music for our ceremony, he emceed the reception and played great music for the dancing. He was so friendly and personable and put us at ease that all was in good hands. We received many compliments from our guests about DJ DNNY, which were well deserved. Highly recommend!
The whole team at Mike Sipe Entertainment was a joy to work with! We hired DJ Glenn Blakk to DJ our event and everyone raved about how awesome a job he did. You could tell he put a ton of passion and effort into our special day.
We chose to go with the musicology/fusion experience with DJ Glenn Blakk, Mario, and Nestor (sax and drums). You know it's a sign of a good time when nobody leaves the dance floor the ENTIRE night! Nobody stopped dancing until the wedding ended. DJ Glenn knows how to make it a party, get everyone in fun moods, and keep the crowd engaged. He has such a fun personality and is 100% a pro when it comes to playing the right music at the right time and mixing great music! Thank you so much to Glenn, Mario and Nestor for making our wedding a night to remember! Highly recommend!
DJ GLeNN BLaKK was simply unreal. Not only did he have everyone dancing all night, he had everyone laughing with his colorful commentary. He was finding creative ways to work me & my husbands names into the songs all night. We also caught him rapping along to some of the music, and he’s pretty talented! There were dance trains, people doing the worm and sliding across the dance floor. He was on top of the timeline & the toasts, and worked with my coordinator and photographer to ensure a seamless night. We had so many compliments about him the next morning. I also want to give a shoutout to Mackenzie for handling the last minute changes I requested. This was MCing at its finest.
You don’t have to look any further, I mean it. We knew we were in good hands with our first meeting with the Mike Sipes Team, but Glenn is hands down THE DJ to book for your wedding. We had our initial meeting with Glenn a week before the event… we hit it off so well, we were relieved and excited to entrust him with the music throughout our wedding! He’s down to earth, has great energy, and shared so much love and enthusiasm with us. He even made recommendations that were different from our original plans, but I’m glad that we trusted him! We wanted to do something personal and different for our ceremony and I think I even found my playlist 24 hours before the event, I didn't even expect to hear anything that I shared by that time since it was so last minute. Then, as we're in our whirlwind of doing photos and guests were arriving, I heard our music, the songs that I shared with him so late and it was such a touching, comforting moment to hear it playing in the distance. He crushed our wedding night and had everyone on the dance floor the WHOLE time, like 3 hours of non-stop dancing. I had my friends coming up to me who were literally soaked in sweat, but beaming on the floor, even friends who refuse to dance were out there with us! Our guests haven't stopped talking about how fun, different, and perfect the night was.
He even hung in with us at the end of the night as we tried to clear the space to have our private last dance, it took to long and my husband and I had to do some love-filled shooing lol. It was an unreal day with epic memories, beautiful moments, and music that filled us with so much love and happiness we will never forget the day and the small moments in between. Thank you so so much Glenn for being an amazing guy, an epic DJ, and supporting us to be creative! It was an amazing night and we can't wait to see you again soon!
Mike Sipe entertainment was absolutely incredible to work with. From our initial call with Ray Acosta we knew we were in good hands. He didn’t try to upsell us at all and was so honest and genuine. We booked the Steel Drum for our cocktail hour which was incredible and our guests absolutely loved it.
There are not enough words to express how incredible DJ Mr Famous was. He absolutely KILLED IT for us. Our wedding was a fusion of many cultures and he perfectly captured the energy and vibe of our group, and elevated it. He had every single person in the room dancing! Since our wedding I’ve had 25+ guests reach out to me to share we had the best DJ they’ve ever heard at a wedding!!
Our wedding would not have been what it was without Ray and his band - WOW! Months later, our guests still talk about it. Living out of town myself, my parents went to a Mike Sipe showcase in the initial days of wedding planning and were instantly sold by Ray's energy and the family business that Mike Sipe Entertainment is. Ray is as professional as they come, sharing great advice, but also accommodating any request. He is the hype man everyone needs at their wedding. Ray and his team ran our ceremony audio perfectly, then we had a saxophone player for cocktail hour, and then the whole band along with Ray DJing for dinner + dancing. Every instrumentalist was so interactive with our guests, playing on the dance floor, and I even got to play the drums!!! Ray didn't miss a beat from our first meeting to our last song, the night was executed perfectly. Absolutely above and beyond.
We just had Glenn Blakk as our DJ for our wedding and he was awesome!!! As the bride I was on the dance floor the majority of the reception and had so much fun!! All our guests raved about the music and the atmosphere Glenn set! I was sad it was over!
When your other vendors are excited to hear who you hired as your wedding DJ you know you made the right decision. We attended a friends wedding who used Mike Sipe Entertainment, so we already had a great impression of the type of events they put on. At the end of our engagement shoot our photographer was asking us which vendors we had booked and when we said we were using Mike Sipe she had endless good things to say about working with DJ Ray Costa, so we went home that night and locked him down. He had such a great vibe from the moment we first spoke with him. At our meeting a couple weeks before our wedding he went over our list of must plays and do not plays and got a good feel for the vibe we were going for. The morning of the wedding my bridal concierge asked who our DJ was and when she learned it was Ray she echoed that we made a great decision (a great way to start off the hectic day). The night our of wedding Ray was great at reading the room and had our guests on the dance floor grooving all night. We are so happy with our decision.
Not enough good things to say about using Mike Sipe with Ray Costa as our DJ. He’s unreal, simply put. If you want to keep the party going all night, look NO further than Ray. He perfectly orchestrated our wedding timeline with the perfect songs to play throughout the night. Would book him again 10000x over!
Deciding to work with Mike Sipe Entertainment for our wedding was the best decision we could've made. From start to finish, the entire MSE team was extremely communicative and accommodating. Our DJ, Ray Costa, was INCREDIBLE. Music was one of the most important elements to us, and DJ Ray killed it. He seamlessly blended our diverse music tastes, creating an incredible set that pleased us and our guests of all ages. Ray also recommended to hire a saxophonist to play at our wedding, and that was truly an A++++ idea. The music was SUCH a big hit, and our guests have not stopped talking about how much fun they had dancing. DJ Ray also offered valuable suggestions to us throughout the day, like when to visit each table to chat with our guests. I truly cannot recommend DJ Ray Costa and the MSE team enough, as they were such a big part in making our wedding the best night of our lives!
From the moment we started working with MSE I knew our entertainment was in good hands. Starting with Ray and Mackenzie in the office coordinating everything to working with the amazing DJ Glenn Blakk! He kept the party going all night and i could not have asked for better people to help bring together our wedding!
We are so happy we chose Mike Sipe to DJ our wedding! The team was a pleasure to work with and DJ Ivanco was the absolute best. He made sure to never miss a beat and really understood the music we loved as a couple and as a dynamic family with lots of varying tastes. He seamlessly wove together soothing classics for the older crowd while also making time and space for upbeat throwbacks so everyone was drawn to the dance-floor. We had so much fun and loved how invested he was into making our day sound and feel like a beautifully orchestrated event we could have only dreamed of!
Dj Glenn Blakk was AMAZING! Our goal for our wedding was to have everyone on the dance floor and he did just that. He had all age groups involved. Music was my highest importance for the wedding because it really makes or breaks it. He worked with us to get our vision accomplished from the ceremony to the reception. He was so easy to work with and the funniest person! My husband and I 100% recommend you book him!! He’s the best!
DJ Glenn Blakk did an amazing job! From our first meeting, he was so easy to work with and has made any interaction with him so much fun! All of the songs were cued up perfectly and he kept the energy going for the entire night. For the Caribbean folk, he is also an expert coordinator for palance and he got everyone out of their seat and jumping all over the dance floor. Thank you DJ Glenn and Mike Sipe Entertainment for an unforgettable night!
Where do I even begin? We cannot thank DJ Ray Costa enough! He was absolutely incredible. Ray truly went above and beyond for my husband Dakin and I on our wedding day and all the time leading up to the big event as well. Best hire ever. From the beginning of the planning process, Ray was beyond dedicated and very thorough to help make sure our special day would be everything we wanted. He was detailed, easy to talk to, and answered all our questions so quickly. He always put us at ease that he had everything taken care of which is so important during the busy wedding planning process. Any time I reached out to Ray, he would hop on a quick zoom call and helped to customize our wedding day in the best way possible. He is fabulous and helped make our wedding an absolute dream. He was so helpful in helping us pick key songs when we were unsure during our planning meeting from ceremony to reception and really took time to understand our vibe & style. He executed flawlessly. In addition to that, on wedding night our DJ Ray Costa & the entire Mike Sipe Entertainment Wedding team was SO wonderful! We cannot sing their praises enough. From our amazing violinist Crismary during our ceremony, to Norlan our awesome sax player, and then to Gabe our epic drums player - each one went above and beyond to make our wedding amazing. They played together so seamlessly and it was the BEST. As a DJ/MC, Ray has the biggest heart, his energy is just contagious, and he truly cares!!! We couldn’t stop dancing the entire night and everyone just loved him. We are forever grateful we hired Ray and will be highly recommending him to everyone we know. For our next event, Ray will be our first call. Don’t think twice about hiring Ray and team for your wedding day! Love, Ashley & Dakin Levit
If you are looking for the best DJ with the best music and energy, DJ Glenn Blakk is the one. He was so nice, positive, listened to what our musical vision was, and then he took the reigns and made our entire wedding reception the party to be at. Nobody stopped dancing. DJ Glenn had fun *with* us and our guests and truly made our reception a personalized experience. His craft is the best of the best and I only wish we had another event where we needed him to DJ. Thank you DJ Glenn and Mike Sipe Entertainment!! -Mollie & Kevin 5.28.2023
We knew we wanted DJ Glenn Blakk for our wedding the moment we met him. We’re so glad we were able to book him. He made the music selection process easy, even with our special requests for Greek music and all 6 of our ceremony song changes. He had everyone on the dance floor all night!! He brought amazing energy and worked the crowd effortlessly. We couldn’t have asked for anything more. He is also an awesome person, so kind and SO MUCH FUN. If we ever need a DJ again, Glenn is our guy.
DJ Glenn Blakk was the absolute best DJ we could have ever asked for! Just from our initial call, we knew we had made the right decision. Glenn is professional, talented and so much fun. Music is a huge part of a wedding and Glenn made sure the dance floor was never empty and that everyone was having a great time. If you are planning any event, we highly recommend DJ Glenn Blakk! He is the best of the best. Thank you Glenn for making our special day so memorable! Our forever family dj!
DJ Glenn Blakk was the DJ for our wedding and he crushed it! We had a lot of hopes for the music during our reception because we were hoping to represent our 2 cultures and their music throughout the night. My wife is Jamaican and I’m Ethiopian so we were worried it might be hard to find someone who could find a way to weave together the music of our cultures as well as fun dance music to keep up the energy on the dance floor. DJ Glenn knocked it out of the park; he took our input and worked it all together so well for us. Thanks to DJ Glenn for being so receptive to our feedback and helping make our wedding reception exactly what we wanted it to be!
We were so happy with our entertainment from Mike Sipe! DJ Fusion with NickyMix got everyone up and dancing the whole night, even our more shy friends and my husband! I highly recommend this unique mix of a DJ accompanied with live musicians to bring your reception to life! They made our specific requests happen and really catered to our guests' music vibes! We also loved having our live string musicians for our ceremony and they played such beautiful versions of the specific songs we requested. It added such a meaningful and special touch to our ceremony. Overall, we're thrilled with everything Mike Sipe brought to our wedding, thanks for everything!
We hired Dj Glenn Blakk for our wedding day & it was the best decision we made! We had a zoom call a few weeks before our wedding to finalize all of the details with him. After we hung up my now husband and I said we could not wait because of his incredible energy he had just over a computer. To say he exceeded our every expectation and then some would be an understatement! He had EVERY SINGLE person at our wedding on the dance floor the ENTIRE evening. I’ve never been at a wedding where that happens! And not one person after has not mentioned how incredible he was! THANK YOU Dj Glenn for making our wedding day unforgettable & so much fun for not only us but our guests as well ! We are forever grateful.
We had DJ Glenn Blakk for our wedding on 1/21/23 and it was the BEST day ever! We had a violin and cello duo for the ceremony (so awesome) and then musicology for the reception with DJ Glenn Blakk, Mario Reynolds for drums, and Keanu Reedz for saxophone. It was the best night of my life and I literally did not leave the dance floor. The guests loved the musicology. We loved having the live music element but being able to play all of the songs we wanted, it was a unique mix of having a DJ and band. DJ Glenn Blakk was seriously so awesome. He met with us on zoom before the wedding and went through everything with us to make sure our vision came to life, and he did not disappoint! He went above and beyond, even talked to me and my husband for awhile about marriage advice in general and spent so much time with us. I could tell he really loves what he does! There were so many people on the dance floor up until the very last song, and I could not have asked for a better night. He definitely exceeded my expectations. I 1000% recommend hiring for your wedding! Thank you so much DJ Glenn Blakk!!!!
We had DJ Ivanco for our wedding and we couldn't have been happier! We received countless comments on how awesome he was and that he was the best wedding DJ people have ever heard. The music and remixes he played were amazing, the dance floor was packed all night long, and he made an effort to engage with the crowd. We truly couldn't imagine our wedding day without him! Highly recommend!
We had DJ Glenn BLakk for our wedding reception and the vibes were amazing! He is a very caring guy that took the time to get to know us prior to our wedding date which was nice. People didn't leave the dance floor and everyone was happy and dancing! Certainly would recommend hiring them!
We couldn't be happier with our choice to work with Mike Sipe Entertainment for our wedding. The lighting, music, photo booth, and cold sparks all contributed to an unforgettable night that exceeded our expectations. The classical string ensemble for the ceremony was beautiful, and DJ Ivanco was a true professional, expertly keeping the party going all night. DJ Ivanco worked with us to plan the music and really understand what would work best for our guests. The addition of a drummer and saxophonist added an extra layer of excitement to the celebration. Ray, who we worked with to book everything, was a pleasure to work with. He was always quick to respond to any questions or concerns and provided excellent communication throughout the process. We highly recommend Mike Sipe Entertainment for any of your entertainment and special effects needs - they truly made our wedding unforgettable!
Ray was 100% on point the energy in the room was flawless. The sax & drummers were amazing. The crew was great. The party was a huge success because of them.
If I had to choose the most valuable investment on wedding day, without a doubt, I would say it is your DJ/entertainment company. I can’t stress enough how important it is to invest in a great entertainment company for your special day. Hiring Ray Costa (DJ/MC) and Dom (sax player) for our wedding was the best decision we could have made. They were everything my now husband and I could have dreamt of and more. The professionalism, experience, and knowledge they brought to our wedding was unmatched. A bride’s confidence and peace on wedding day knowing that everything will turn out as planned is PRICELESS and thanks to Mike Sipe Entertainment, this is exactly how I felt. Our guests were shocked and had the most fun experience thanks to this company, and I cannot thank Ray Costa and Dom enough for their services. Thank you, from the bottom of our hearts. Love, The Stapletons!
Live music has always been one thing that connects Jonny Saldana and me. When deciding on entertainment for the wedding we gave Keith Willard a list of things we wanted. He sent several suggestions and not going to lie, some of them were way out there in price (but we really wanted to make this a priority). Jonathan really wanted a full band including live singers, but with the choice of venue and the price point, I was able to convince him on a DJ and musicians, with a live singer for the cocktail reception and our first dance.
This is were Mike Sipe Entertainment, Events & Productions joins our wedding vendor list. After some research and some initial calls we knew that they’d be able to deliver the experience we were looking for. We booked our ceremony prelude musicians (harp and violin), DJ, three live musicians (saxophone, drum and guitar), Tim Charron, robot performance for our version of “hora loca” and the machine to allow us to “dance on the cloud”.
It was great to work with everyone at Mike Sipe Entertainment, they made sure to listen to our needs and even set up a time for us to meet with our DJ and go over our song choices and timing. They seriously provided a level of service that was beyond what we expected.
However, since I am trying to make these reviews honest so that others can benefit, there were three issues that were never really addressed. The first issue was the fact that they seemed to only have two wireless lavalier microphones ready for the ceremony, when we had specifically asked for three (then when they couldn’t get the third one to work they tried offering a handheld microphone, but I really didn’t want that). The next issue was, Tim Charron’s microphone, he had to start the song over because there were microphone issues, which is why Danny is holding the mic throughout him singing (if you really pay close attention to the video’s I posted, you can see me rolling my eyes). The last issue was a power outage in the middle of the party—the DJ equipment just went out. They tried blaming it on the hotel and the The Ritz-Carlton Bal Harbour, Miami continued to blame it on Mike Sipe. I’m not going to lie, this moment made me really mad, but they did try and continue the party by having the guitarist, drummer and saxophonist continue to play. Just wish I had an answer. Eventually, the hotel and they decided to allow us to party for an additional 30 minutes. Additionally, I do have to note, I think companies like this should build in the cost of using credit cards instead of charging a 3.5% credit card fee.
Back to the positive though, the HORA LOCA LED ROBOT PERFORMANCE was AMAZING!! Definitely one of the highlights of the evening. The nitrogen machine also kept on going throughout the night and gave us the effect we were looking for especially for our first dance—dancing on the clouds (this effect is seriously how I feel every time I write one of these reviews and see the pictures).
Additionally, Danny, our DJ and MC for the night, did an incredible job keeping the energy high! He also always mixed in song requests that I would randomly through at him (and even when LoIita Chanel and RC Goslee asked to do one number). His energy and charisma definitely helped make the night one that I’ll never forget.
THANK YOU MIKE SIPE ENTERTAINMENT FOR HELPING MAKE OUR NIGHT A DREAM COME TRUE. DANNY THANK YOU FOR BEING PART OF THE PARTY THROUGHOUT THE NIGHT!
Our entertainment was incredible. From the strings performers that played at our ceremony and cocktail hour to our amazing DJ Glenn Blakk and DJ live team that kept our dance floor packed during the reception, we don’t have enough good things to say. Our guests were so impressed with the DJ live reception as well! Our only regret is we should have extended the reception even longer. Great team :)
Where do I even begin, I knew I wanted to have Ray DJ my wedding from the moment I got engaged! He is absolutely amazing! He was also our MC and everyone kept telling me how much they loved him. He truly keeps the party going! Absolutely no one was sitting down at the wedding! He had total control of the timeline and kept everyone hyped throughout the night!
Leading up to the wedding we had our calls and he was so helpful and made the process so fun and easy! He truly forms a relationship with his couples and it means so much! I cannot recommend Mike Sipe Entertainment enough- they are so lucky to have Ray! If you’re looking for entertainment for your wedding or event- look no further.
Choose DJ Glenn Blakk! He is the best DJ ever!! We knew from the moment we met him at a wedding we needed him at our wedding. He brought every single person to the dance floor and we had the best night of our lives! I loved the music he played and he knew how to keep the party going. He is also hilarious and easy going. Definitely the type of personality you need during stressful wedding planning times. He was also very responsive and really helped us plan our song choices. I will be using him for future events 1000%. Look no further and book him for your event!
We had hired two violinist and a keyboard player for our ceremony and cocktail hour and they were amazing . Our DJ was fantastic and kept our guests on the dance floor all night . Everyone was so easy to work with and very professional. Would highly recommend them
Dj Ivanco is the best!!! If you really want people up and dancing definitely use him!! Everyone was telling me how much fun they had at the wedding and I definitely think it was because of him!!!
Mike Sipe Entertainment was wonderful to work with from the very beginning! I was able to schedule a phone call to review what I was looking for and ask a bunch of questions prior to ever signing a contract with them. The entire team at Mike Sipe was super responsive and helpful throughout. We specifically wanted DJ Ivanco at our wedding and he did not disappoint!! All of our guests were on the dance floor and had the best time. My parents are still talking about DJ Ivanco and how they want to see him DJ again. Prior to the wedding we were able to speak with him and go over all of the songs we wanted, didnt want, etc and he completely understood our vibe for music at the wedding. 10/10 recommend Mike Sipe and DJ Ivanco!
My husband and I hired Mike Sipe Entertainment at our wedding planner's recommendation, and they were incredible! We had DJ Ray Costa and his musciology experience with a drummer and saxophone player. The energy never dropped throughout the whole night! Ray took so much time to carefully plan out the music for our ceremony, the speeches, and our song requests. He didn't miss a beat! The lights, equipment, and service was phenomenal from start to finish. We highly recommend them!
I highly recommend Mike Sipe Entertainment for your wedding. From the very first meeting, I was really impressed with everyone at Mike Sipe Entertainment. They are organized and were always very quick to respond. DJ Ivanco did our ceremony and our reception. He was great about playing our song requests while also adjusting the music to the crowd to make sure everyone had a great time! The reception was one of my favorite parts of the wedding because the dance floor was so much fun thanks to DJ Ivanco.
We had a wonderful experience from the beginning to the end with Mike Sipe Entertainment. Our initial meeting with Mike was great. He was so helpful and answered all of our questions and made us feel comfortable. We had our wedding pushed back due to Covid and they worked with us every step of the way. The communication was amazing, and they were on top of everything. We were planning from out of town and they made it so easy for us. They were organized, responsive, caring and professional. We did the Musicology, and we were hesitant as to how it would all come together. It was perfect. I could not have imagined a better night. Our DJ was Glenn Blakk, Mario was on the drums, and Dominick was on the Sax. Crismary started our ceremony off on the Violin and it was beautiful. The entertainment was incredible, and the dance floor was packed the entire night. Dominick got out on the dance floor with our guests. Our guests continue to talk about our wedding night. HIGHLY, HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!
Hire these people! Our wedding venue had Mike Sipe Entertainment as one of there preferred vendors and now we understand why. This company is a well oiled machine while making you feel like you are there only priority. From start to finish the booking process was easy and seamless. They have everything under the sun available to hire. BUT the real MVP was our DJ, Ray Costa. I don't have words for how amazing he is. Our consultation with him was laid back and easy going. He took the lead for us when we didn't know what songs we wanted for certain parts of the day and made us feel confident that we were in good hands. Every guest asked us what our DJ's name was throughout the night. They were so impressed. Many couldn't believe that we were dancing and having a blast all before dinner was even served. To quote Ray, "You can go to dinner anywhere in the world. You came here to party and have a good time." That was precisely what we did! Thank you, Ray!
I absolutely cannot say enough amazing things about DJ Ray and his team at Mike Sipe. DJ Ray was one of the highlights of our wedding. He knows how to start the party and keep the party going. He was phenomenal with changing up the vibe to fit the different types of crowds at the wedding. It’s been 2 weeks after our wedding and people are still telling us our DJ was awesome and people have even reached out to ask about the songs he played because they want to hear them again! You will NOT go wrong with DJ Ray. Trust me! I had absolutely nothing to worry about with him. He knows exactly what he’s doing and will make sure everything is exactly how you want it. Thank you Ray & the Mike Sipe team for everything!!! My favorite wedding vendor!!
