Muse Entertainment

is car slid off the road on his way to us! He arrived and somehow managed to get everything set up on time for the ceremony and reception. He didn’t miss any announcements, dismissed tables for the buffet, even plugged that we had some more batch cocktails at the request of the bar, he operated the photo booth seamlessly, and he counted us down to midnight for our toast too. I know this sounds like a basic review, and it is, but that’s because Don did literally everything we asked him to do and didn’t need us checking in, overseeing, or otherwise trying to manage him; we were able to actually relax and enjoy the night because he was completely on time and on schedule, despite a really stressful start to his day! More specifics that we appreciated: The photobooth is 1000000% worth the money and was busy all night. The printouts are a good size, the option to get the photo sent to your phone is great, and then Don sent us a full folder of all the photos taken during the event that night! It came with tons of props that people had a great time with, there are plenty of background options we got to choose from; it was an awesome addition to the event. Also, we did a few things a bit differently compared to many weddings and Don didn’t skip a beat, just asked clarifying questions if he had any and then did everything we asked without a problem. Don is also just a straight up good DJ. He did an awesome job reading the room and played tons of hits that people really loved – he took requests, too, which we wanted! It was a smaller wedding (59 people day of) but the dance floor stayed active all night thanks to him.

tertainment can do it! During the planning process, coordination was always easy, and he was able to guide us through the process so we always felt like we knew what was going on. We were able to give very specific instructions for some parts, leave it up to him for other parts, and even with last minute changes he was flexible and accommodating. Choosing a DJ felt daunting, but Muse Entertainment made it a breeze and we're very happy with the result.

was anything that we could do to prepare— he responded with a phone screenshot to a questionnaire and asked me if I had filled it out yet (even though I had never seen it until I prompted him). We filled out the questionnaire and had an over-the-phone meeting; I felt confident after our phone call as Don felt flexible and knowledgeable. Over the phone, he helped us decide on our ceremony and First Dance songs. I exited that phone call feeling like we had ironed out the details and that everyone was on the same page. I then emailed him an itinerary for our ceremony following the meeting. He texted me a few days before our wedding asking if I had sent the files yet (I did) and claimed that he hadn’t seen them. I ended up texting them to him, but I had several other interactions like this with him throughout our work together where he claimed he had never received emails from me. At the time, I brushed this off because I recognize that it can be easy to miss emails, but I now feel like this is just another data point for his lack of preparedness and organizational skills. On the day of our actual wedding, Don came early to set up. He had a female assistant who was friendly and personable. A few hours before our ceremony, he asked my partner and I “if we had selected songs for the ceremony entrance yet” and what they were— we reminded him that we had already decided over the phone and that this was not an appropriate time to ask us, he fumbled around and told us that he would “figure it out.” He did, however it felt unprofessional that he had forgotten this detail and that he asked the bride and groom only a few hours before the ceremony when he had been there since the morning. At our reception, he forgot to announce several things or did them in the completely wrong order— it felt almost as if he had either never read our itinerary or had read it once and then completely forgotten about it. There were several times throughout the night where various people in our Bridal and Groom’s Parties had to run up to him and either give him a reminder or literally take the microphone from him; we understand this was likely rude and annoying for him, but he literally missed out on so many details that we thought we had already ironed out with him. We feel guilty that our friends and family had to do so much damage control. After our wedding day, we received many reports from different people at our wedding about their experiences with Don; our officiant reported him being unprepared for the ceremony because he only brought one microphone, several of our guests commented that Don was physically caressing and touching his female assistant while on the job at our wedding, and other guests reported Don not being receptive to their song requests. One guest did the photo booth and reported receiving their photo in a text thanking them for being at the wedding of a couple that was NOT us— our guest had to go correct Don that the Photo Booth was not correctly set up to reflect our names. Overall, we were so incredibly disappointed. I recognize that helping organize a wedding can be a big undertaking, but so many of the mistakes on the day of our wedding felt like they could have been avoided if Don had only prepared and exercised a little bit more professionalism.
