I really didn’t want to leave this review, but my coordinator has reached out twice with no response. My wedding was almost ruined due to music. And though I understand accidents happens, in todays digital age, there’s no excuse as to why my mu...sic wasn’t queued in his system or saved in his phone.
What happened, firstly I had emailed him all my documents for music and my expectations of what we were looking for. I never got a response. We did end up chatting on the phone and letting the Tuesday before my wedding. I had some concerns then because it was slightly unorganized and he couldn’t find some of our music, but ultimately he did so we pushed forward.
Day of my ceremony music started before my bridal party began walking so he had to start it over.
After introductions into reception he apparently lost the documents I gave him. It was SILENT. We were supposed to go right into the first dance and he LOST our song. His wife had to come to my table and ask. After that we went straight to cake cut. Also lost. Again awkward silence. His wife again had to approach us at our cake table and ask what our song was. Embarrassing to say the least.
He started the night with OLD music. No one moved. I had several people, including my husband, tell him to please change the music cause no one was moving. It took too many songs to change. Finally we got some line dances and people started to move. He never picked up on the vibe. I also specifically said BRIDAL PARTY could request and he told them no. It was clearly on the sheet. We even told him to open it up cause no one was feelin the music and that was an issue. I did say to play a variety, but as a dj you need to feel the crowd and he wasn’t, at all.
Our uplifting was pretty, photo booth was great! They did apologize, but it still didn’t fix all the questions being asked by my guests and the awkward/embarrassing quiet moments when it was clear and communicated what I wanted for the evening.
