We hired Mike, Music in Motion, for our wedding on June 21, 2024 and were very satisfied!
Let’s start by saying that Mike was the worst decision we made for our wedding.
Imagine choosing a beautiful all white marble chapel and your husband centered in front of all of your guests.Now imagine all of that with an ugly old school tall long black mic in the center of your stage.This is what Mike brings to table. Half @$$ work and the bare minimum.We are in 2024, why do we need to request a wireless mic?!All of our ceremony/ first kiss pics reflect Mike’s sloppy work.
Mike speaks so well.He can sell you your dreams.Which is what he did to my husband and I, a mixed cultured couple with family from Ireland and Guyana.Mike knew he needed to play music from both cultures so that all of our guests could be included.He reassured us that he was capable of handling this request, even lying to us and saying he’d contract with another DJ to get the music.Mike did NOT follow through.Instead of playing music both families knew, he played Bollywood music for the first 10 minutes, leaving out half of our guests.He played all songs from the beginning to the end, with a sudden overlap in between.No mixes.No mashups.Which was what we specifically requested before we booked him.He played radio songs that you couldn’t dance to.And then replayed the same songs throughout the night!When I asked him to play a song, he gave me an attitude and said “I played every song on this list”,and pulled out our must play list (which was capped at 15).Mike, if you were doing a great job at playing music, you wouldn’t need the Bride and Groom requesting songs.
When booking Mike,he wanted us to sign a contract that wasn’t reflecting what we spoke about.I gave pushback and Mike acted like he was the bride.So I didn’t sign and he called us and said we were reading the messages out of context but advised he’d do us a favor and reflect the changes.His manipulation made me give him the benefit of the doubt. DO NOT FALL FOR THIS.After we signed, we didn’t hear from Mike until WE contacted him to schedule an appointment,3 days before the wedding.We reviewed the program and told him everything that we wanted.Believe me when I say that this conversation does not matter. Everything that we told Mike during the conversation was ignored. My heart dropped before my entrance because the wrong songs were played during entrances. How?! You have one job! More importantly, we agreed that my husband’s father would be saying grace/blessings before dinner. Mike never announced it so everyone began to eat. Something that was so important to us and to my father in law was left out bc half@$$ Mike did not follow through!His excuse was that it wasn’t on the website.Then what was the purpose of the call where you heard our requests first hand? Like I said before, Mike was the bride bc he made all the final decisions and ignored our requests.
I could go on about all the bad things Mike did but I’ll instead end it with this:
Mike never introduced himself to us.He was hired for 8 hours and at the 6th hour, my husband and I decided to introduce ourselves. He was supposed to MC the wedding but rarely engaged with our guests. Out of 1-5 we told Mike that we wanted a MC level of 4 and we got a 0.Instead, Mike SLOPPILY sat and hid behind the DJ booth, where he made sure he wasn’t seen.
I cannot believe Mike got this far as a DJ. I don’t know what changed from previous reviews but I read that he disputes negative reviews. Please take my advice and DO NOT HIRE MIKE! He ruined so much of our wedding!
Mike was the DJ at our wedding this past weekend. He was easy to work with and very profesional. His online music planning system was fun to use and made it easy to make sure everything was organized and ran smoothly the day off. We physically met for the first time the day of the wedding, but he made me feel calm and like I had known him forever. I would definitely recommend.
We are so glad that we picked Mike to be our DJ for our wedding on June 3rd. He was so much fun to work with and we are still getting so many compliments from our wedding about how he kept everyone engaged and dancing. He was very accommodating for any request that we had and even helped us out with suggestions for anything we weren't sure of. He truly made our wedding the happiest day of our lives. It's hard to find words to describe how amazing our experience was working with him. I highly recommend for your special day!
We hired Music in Motion for our wedding. We had a small wedding and initially thought we would go without a DJ. We are so happy we hired this team. Mike and his staff are experienced, flexible, knowledgeable, professional, and extremely helpful. They accommodated any request we had and had valuable suggestions for the areas we were unsure of. There was ongoing communication leading up to the event and they made sure to understand exactly what we wanted. They delivered flawlessly and we could not have been happier. On top of all that their price was extremely reasonable and we would happily recommend to anyone or hire them again. Thank you Mike!
We hired music in motion for our 06/04/22 wedding. We could not have asked for a better DJ (Mike) and photo booth assistant (Crystal). My husband and I really dropped the ball on the music details and Mike was able to put everything together last minute for us. We wanted very specific versions of instrumentals that he was able to find. The ceremony music/set up was perfect. For the reception, Mike played every song we requested and then played so many perfect songs just by getting a feel for the crowd. Our guests ranged from 2 years old to 85 years old and everyone was on the dance floor.
The photo booth was a huge hit with our guests- Crystal put together the perfect signage for our photo-strips with our names and a design that matched our invitations. They also put an album together for us with copies of the photo-strips and had guests write us messages.
So many of our guests have reached out to tell us how perfect the music was and how much fun they had. We can’t recommend music in motion enough- Thank you again Mike and Crystal!

It’s hard to find the words to describe our experience with Music in Motion Entertainment…they were everything we hoped for and so much more! From the very start, Mike (the DJ) was personable, helpful, attentive, and communicative. He gave us awesome advice on making our day as amazing as it could be without ever being pushy. He really showed that he cared about our experience and we felt like he was 100% in it with us. On the day of our wedding, Mike brought such amazing energy to our celebration and also to the private talks and check-ins we had with him. He had EVERYONE on the dance floor and was great even with impromptu changes. We couldn’t have asked for a better DJ!
Len, the photographer, was also incredible. He caught all of the important moments, big and small, and has such a calm and down-to-earth disposition. Everyone raved about his approach and demeanor. Len made the photo sessions fun and stress-free and we can’t wait to see his work!
We used Music in Motion for our summer 2021 wedding. It was originally scheduled for 2020, but with covid we decided to postpone. Music in Motion allowed us to make a seamless change the date and kept us updated on CDC mandates and the what to expect. Mike was amazing and our wedding celebration was nonstop dancing and fun. 6 months later we are still getting complements and comments that our wedding was the most fun our guests have had!
Music in motion is the best!! We have been using them since I was in middle school! They did our school dances, our graduation parties, my sweet 16, my brothers wedding and my own wedding. They have never disappointed us and we always have the best time dancing and playing games! I had a special request for my father daughter dance and they made it work so perfectly. Highly highly recommend!!
From start to wedding day Mike made everything easy and fun! So glad we went with Music in Motion!
Mike was awesome!! He was very helpful with any and all questions that we had while planning our wedding even with having to postpone the wedding for a year. He did an amazing job with the ceremony music too!! Would recommend using music in motion
Mike was awesome, he kept the music and party going all night! He followed through on the details we had discussed such as special music during cocktail hour and dinner time, etc. The photo booth and the people who worked it were amazing, our guests loved it!! We were happy we went with the lighting for our dance floor, it really added to the fun! Thank you!!
Music in motion was the DJ for our wedding and we couldn't ask for a better DJ. Mike is extremely friendly and wants to help make your event special. He played all the best music we like and was a great MC as well!
I'm really glad we hired Mike! He was super easy to work with, and very affordable. He played awesome music and everyone had a great time at our wedding! 100% recommend working with him!
We met Music in Motion at a vendor fair in Hartford back when our wedding was suppose to be in April 2020. After 3 postponement dates, which Music In Motion graciously supported - they Djed our wedding in August 2020. Mike did a great job.
Mike was great and was really fun to work with! He did a great job keeping everyone having a good time on the dance floor, and even added his own touch to one of the songs we requested which was so much fun!
Mike was a awesome dj he was very good and played everything we wanted. He was very friendly to all the guests and acted very professional. I would recommend him.
We loved our wedding. Our family is still talking about how nice the uplighting was. Mike’s energy is awesome, he had our guests entertained all night. Highly recommend.
Five stars! They let you pick songs, and they let you customize your reception to how you want it! Mike was great! Covid made things difficult but Mike made it easy for us and he was very flexible. Our wedding turned out great! Everyone had so much fun! Thanks Mike!!!
Some fine details missed. Owner did reach out to us afterward but we were happy with our day. Thank you
I am so happy that we hired Music in Motion. They had a very thorough app that allowed us to plan our event and pick our music. Carols our DJ was very responsive to our needs. He worked with me in planning things and was able to tailor the program to our changing needs on site and in real time. Carlos was even able to mike a vocal and guitar on the spot when the Bride asked her brother to sing a song. Mike Fernino. and his company are awesome and well worth the fee.
We used music in motion for our wedding. We absolutely loved the lighting for our outside venue. The photo booth was great as well as the music.
Mike did a fantastic job at our wedding!! Everyone had a blast and the music was fantastic. He did such a great job keeping everyone on the dance floor!!! We also used them for our ceremony and had a live classical trio - they were amazing and did a great job of setting the tone for the wedding!
We used Music in Motion for DJ services, lighting, and our photobooth for our wedding this weekend. Mike was a huge help in the planning for our wedding - he offered appropriate suggestions and walked us through everything we needed to know. The online portal was a great way for us to list the songs we wanted and write notes to Mike so he knew special dedications and instructions about certain songs. He was great at reading the room, and when a song wasn't a hit, he changed it. I didnt leave the dance floor the whole night! The photobooth was a fun addition and we were able to get digital copies of all photos that same night.
My husband and I are incredibly grateful for Mike and his team. We had been planning to get married on our anniversary for two years and then COVID happened and everything changed. Because of Mike and his team we were able to have our wedding safely with a small group of family and friends and livestream the ceremony. We didn’t have to do anything, they had it all figured out and took a lot of stress off our plate. Mike was incredibly supportive and reassuring for months leading up to our wedding. Everyone wore masks and were very professional. We couldn’t be happy. Thank you!
Music in Motion did an outstanding job playing for our wedding this past weekend! Mike was wonderful to work with and was very flexible to change plans last minute with all the new guidelines for weddings in New York State during this global pandemic. It was so easy to make playlists with the online planner on their website and the music was always the right volume and never too loud. Thanks to Music in Motion, our wedding after party was perfect and so much fun. Would highly recommend them to anybody looking for a dj to play at their event.
Mike was absolutely incredible. From our intros to music selections to hyping up the crowd. We couldn’t have asked for a better DJ. He is so professional but at the same time the life of the party. I would recommend him 100/100 times!!!!!
Music In Motion did an impeccable job at our wedding. We utilized the DJ service, videographer, photo booth and a string trio. Everyone helped make our wedding the most special day of our lives. Mike is a Master of Ceremonies like no other. The lighting was flawless and everyone (all 130 people) were on the dace floor enjoying the music. Throughout the whole process of planning the wedding, Mike was very communicative. He encouraged our ideas and made great suggestions when we needed his assistance. We cannot express enough gratitude for the job the Music In Motion did at our wedding. We highly recommend Music In Motion one hundred times over.
From beginning to end-every aspect-5 stars!!!!!
I met Mike , the owner, at a bridal expo along with some of his staff, and I knew instantly we needed to hire them! Their energy was just so exciting and contagious-exactly what we wanted for our wedding!
Mike was on top of everything from the minute we made our first phone call and expressed interest. He helped us with not only his area of expertise, but was very wise in all things wedding. He was always there to answer any questions, no matter how small and no matter how many (I'm a nervous Nelly and had a million! haha!)
We had the ultimate package which included DJ, Videographer, Lighting, Photobooth and a trio of live music. A true bang for your buck and totally worth every penny! Every person that we worked with was so professional and phenomenal!
Jennifer with the live trio was amazing in helping us choose exactly how we wanted our ceremony to sound- and the classical music was beautiful!
Crissy ran the photobooth and it was a HIT! Thank you for giving us so many memories that we will be able to cherish forever!
Kersten, our videographer, captured the most beautiful moments, and the hilarious ones too! He was there from us getting ready to the sparkler sendoff and was able to catch everything we would want to remember and more! Not to mention, he was quick to get us our video after-it only took about a week!
And Last, but most definitely not least, our DJ's Roberto and Pedro. They were out of this world! Our dance floor was PACKED all night long! Every single person was dancing! Everything ran so smoothly and they were able execute every detail astoundingly! They also set up the lighting and it was perfect for our venue and theme. If you want to see people on the dance floor that you would've never imagined would be- hire these guys! They really know how to get people groovin' and having the time of their lives!
Sorry for the long review-but I had to give credit where it is most certainly due- THANK YOU Music in Motion Entertainment for the most amazing wedding! You guys really made it the best!
AMAZING!!
We had the pleasure of meeting Mike at a family wedding and knew we had to hire them immediately! Mike made the whole planning process easy with their online planner and the services they offered were endless! From the string quartet for our ceremony, the lighting for our reception and Mike keeping everyone on the dance floor all night! They went above and beyond! THANK YOU Music in Motion for making our wedding a night to remember!! HIGHLY recommend!
Mike from Music in Motion is truly a professional DJ. Before our wedding, he met with us in person and was available for phone conference calls when we had questions. He knew just how to assure us and reduce our worry of the day. During the wedding, he knew how to get the crowd engaged and dancing. He was able to obtain the music that we were seeking as we had some ethnic songs we wanted included. He was very familiar with our venue and the order of events of the evening. He also provided our uplighting and we were more than pleased with it! You will not be disappointed!
DJ Mike was the best! He was so easy to work with and despite time constraints and other challenges, he managed to make the day perfect! We got compliments from a lot of the guests about our DJ and the music. He has a great energy, is patient, professional, and I would recommend him to anyone looking for a DJ for any occasion!
Mike Fernino and his crew were absolutely perfect!...he was great to work with and help us in affordability and every little detail that made our wedding reception the most perfect night we could have imagined...Amy and I highly recommend this company for all music, photography, and videography!...loved them!
Use Them!..
We hired Music in Motion for our wedding yesterday and wow, did they deliver! We had Aaron as our DJ and Horace as our videographer. DJ Aaron had our ceremony music perfectly lined up and was amazing from the introductions, all the way to the last dance! The dance floor was never empty once dancing opened up and he did a great job of transitioning the different types of songs (from fun old rock songs, to present day hits, to country music towards end.) He played all our requests we had mentioned in the online planner, and even took requests from guests! Horace was an awesome videographer that even helped with showing everyone how to do the Cupid Shuffle on the dance floor and was constantly walking around, catching all the best moments of the day! Both the DJ and videographer were so so nice as well! Compliments from guests are still coming in and we couldn't have been happier with the job they did! Horace even had a drone flying over grounds as we took our photos outside, so cool! Highly recommend this company and Aaron and Horace, thanks again!! =D
Mike from Music in Motion exceeded our expectations with the service and professionalism he provided for our wedding day. A/V and lighting were needed for different areas of the venue, and Mike executed on everything flawlessly - making it so easy for all of the vendors involved. He also brought so many ideas to the table to make the night perfect for us (would highly recommend the ceiling stars!) On top of it all, the music was amazing and there was never a dull moment on the dance floor. Thank you Mike & co for everything!!
I can’t say enough about Mike and Music In Motion! His music suggestions made our day so special! Very accommodating and the addition of the photo booth was great. If you want a great DJ/photo booth, Music In motion is the best!
My husband and I had Carlos dj our wedding on October 12th! Mike the owner was fabulous to work with...talked about all the options they offered and made it happen since we wanted a PARTY at the reception...Carlos made all our song requests happen without hesitation and made our wedding unique! Everyone keeps saying it was the best music and best reception they have been to! Thank you Music in Motion!

Mike was so amazing to work with!! The online planning system helped us get all of the details organized before our wedding. Mike was able to easily set up music for the reception, cocktail hour, and reception. His energy was engaging and his music selections to fill in where we left things open kept people on the dance floor! Thank you, Mike, for helping make our day perfect!
My husband and I got the DJ and photo booth package and both were a hit!! Mike the owner was so easy to communicate with and had all our guests dancing all night long. He was super fun and read the crowd to make sure everyone was entertained!! The photo booth was worth every penny- the guests had a blast with it and we were able to use the photo book as a very special guest book with all the pictures and messages from our guests! Highly recommend music in motion (specifically mike Fernino) for any special event!
Mike was our DJ and he was fantastic! We didn't think that many people would dance at our wedding since we're not big dancers, but the dance floor was packed all night and everyone talked about what a great party it was! Mike did the sound for our outdoor ceremony, did our reception and we got a photo booth as well. Everything was wonderful! The planning tool was really easy to use and it actually helped us figure out what we wanted for our ceremony and reception. Thank you so much, Mike!!
Mike was our MC for our wedding and he was amazing! He played what the guests wanted to hear and had them all up dancing til the end of the night! We highly recommend him!!
We used Music in Motion for our wedding on September 16, 2018. The music was perfect and the DJs were professional and entertaining. Everyone at our wedding had an awesome time!!!!!! The photo booth was excellent!! I would highly recommend them to everyone!!!! Thank you Mike and your team for making our reception the talk of the town!!!!!
The best there is!
Mike has many, many years of experience and it shows. From the second we met with him we knew he was going to be our DJ. We knew that he wasn't going to try to "sell" us anything or take over our wedding. If we were unsure about how to go about something he voiced his opinions and gave us scenarios of things people have done that have and haven't worked in the past. The experience that he has backs it up. Then he let us choose for ourselves and went with whatever we said.
He uses an online planner so that you can pick your music. It is SO detailed. You choose songs that you absolutely want played, songs that you don't want played and other songs that you want played during the night. We were able to make notes on certain songs that we chose about why we wanted to hear them. It even gives you lists of the most popular songs in case you need help deciding on a certain song. We used that a lot! (: It was super easy and it's one less thing you have to worry about as far as how it will go on your wedding day.
On our wedding day I made a last minute decision to change our entrance. I decided on this change right before we were being announced. I was hesitant to change something so last minute but he reassured me that I should go with my gut and if I felt that I wanted the change that I should change it and it was the right choice.
There is so much more to say... working with Mike was a dream. Everyone loved the music! EVERYONE was dancing the entire night. I'm still hearing about how fun our wedding was, specifically how great our DJ was!
Mike was an excellent DJ!! Kept everyone on the dance floor all night and was so great when it came to the whole planning process. The planner on the website is so easy to navigate and makes picking your music so easy and convenient!
Planning from a distance is always a struggle because you're not sure exactly who you are dealing with. However Mike from Music in Motion was fantastic. We had several phone conversations leading up to the wedding and he was able to not only answer any of our questions but through his years of experience he was able to help us with any other aspects of the wedding we needed advice in. Before our wedding we gave him a must play list of only 6 songs, but he was able to take those 6 songs and come up with a playlist which kept our guests on the dance floor all night long. He mixed in pop songs, line dances, slow songs, classic rock; he had something for everyone to be out on the dance floor rocking out to and singing along. We had family members that I didn't even know were capable of dancing getting out there and having a good time. Mike even had a "game show" type game for my new wife and myself which had all our guests and ourselves cracking up with laughter. Overall our wedding was a fantastic night, and I know a huge part of it was from Mike and Music in Motion making sure the party never stopped
I highly recommend music in motion, we choose him because of his years and years of dj expeirence. Mike was a pleasure to work with and made it easy to answer any of our questions and concerns. We used him for Dj, Photobooth, videography, and also fog for the dance floor for our first dance! We wouldn’t of changed a thing!
Where do I start ????? Music In Motion helped make my wedding day so magical! From videographer, to Dj to Photobooth, to the fog on the dance floor during our first dance, they had everything we needed to make our day complete! Mike was always Avaliabe when I called to make changes or just to double check that I have everything just right! I would definitely recommend Music In Motion for your Wedding!
I can’t thank Mike enough for DJing my wedding! I called him because he’s my friend, and I couldn’t imagine anyone else doing it. But I have to say, as a total control freak, I trusted him completely to just do what he does. I didn’t have time to give him exhaustive instructions (like I do for everyone else), or even communicate much, but I knew he’d do an amazing job!
There wasn’t one minute of time the dance floor was empty! EVERYBODY DANCED!!! People laughed, and enjoyed everything he did, music before the ceremony, during cocktail hour, dinner, and after. It was ALL PERFECT!!
Thank you Mike!! XOX Fantastic job!!!
We liked Mike the first time we met him (note that we had a much lower offer and picked him instead). We came home and read all the reviews. Yes, he is not the best at returning phone calls for all of us Type A personalities. BUT, he did a great job! Our wedding was small but he still kept the dance floor active. Choice of music was great. The lighting added a very nice touch. I would definitely make the same choice again.

Music in Motion was a favorite vendor at our wedding! We live in Massachusetts and weren’t sure if we wanted to pick a dj out in Connecticut as this would require us to travel back and forth to meet up. Mike made sure to make everything so easy and convenient for us leading up to the wedding. We had several phone calls and text messages with him answering all questions/concerns we had. He also had several videos to share showing us his work. We never actually had to go meet in person for anything and that was a huge convenience for us! As far as the actual day Music in Motion beyond met our expectations! Our guests had a blast! They not only brought the energy but were so on point with the music selection. They say there are two most important aspects in making your wedding day great for guests and that is food and music. The music kept a crowd on the dance floor all night. We had many family members travel from Italy and they made sure to play hits in Italian as well. Our photographer left around 10:30 and we had the venue booked until midnight. Music in motion took it upon themselves to take pictures the rest of the time making sure our last dance/and a dance with my sister was captured. This totally shocked me on a customer service level. I highly recommend music in motion as they not only bring the fun but they make sure to pay attention to detail!
My husband and I got married at St. Clements Castle on June 2, 2018 and our day was magical! We had a recommendation from a friend to book Jason from Music in Motion and she was beyond right! Jason is a pro and collaborated with us on exactly what we wanted for the day but also added his own expertise to make sure our guests had a fabulous time! Just like my friend said at her wedding, we couldn't get people off the dance floor!
The owner, Mike, was wonderful to coordinate with in advance of our big day.
We also had live musicians for the ceremony and that made for a wonderful touch for our ceremony! Jen coordinated with us in advance and made great recommendations for music based on the tone we wanted to set for the ceremony.
Everything was wonderful due in large part to Music in Motion. If you are planning your wedding, book Music in Motion! You will be very happy you did!
My husband and I were married on May 19, 2018 and we had an incredible experience with Music in Motion. In the planning proccess, everything is easily organized with the online form. Mike is also very easy to keep in touch with via text, phone call, e-mail. He offers such a variety of services that really completed everything we had imagined for out wedding. On the actual wedding day, we had countless people tell us how much fun they had and that the DJ knew how to keep the dance floor going! Also we were on the fence about adding the architectual lighting, but are so happy we did. It added such a fun and romantic ambiance to the night! We also used the videographer package, Tom was also very easy to work with and knew exactly which moments to capture! We could not have asked for a better DJ and Videographer!
The overall experience with the company was great! All the meetings and communications with the DJ were great up until the actual day. Some of the things we discussed, like skipping to the chorus for my husband and I's intro song and giving away the centerpieces for example just never got done. Also, the set up of the speakers was not correct, my guests could not hear ANYTHING if they were seated in the corners of our reception hall. Not sure if the DJ was just having an off day. I would recommend the DJ company but not the specific DJ we had that day.
Our wedding was yesterday at Eolia Mansion at Harkness State Park and we worked with Mike throughout the entire process! Our guests raved about him the entire night - he kept the crowd going and everyone dancing all night long! He fulfilled every expectation for a perfect wedding day and we could not have asked for a better day. Thank you Mike for working closely with us to make our day so wonderful!!
Mike and his team were incredible! Highly, highly recommend them. From the first phone call to the end of our wedding night, they were professional and warm and welcoming! Loved the seamless process of preparing the music we liked and didn't like (through the online form). Our guests danced their faces off and we still get compliments about how much fun the dance floor and the entirety of the wedding was - not to mention the awesome lighting. They also wouldn't appease our guests requests for certain songs (because they were on the do not play list), which was a big deal for us. They had our backs! We had a wonderful violinist & cellist for the ceremony - it was absolutely perfect. Just perfect.
Couldn't have done it without the amazing Music In Motion team!
My Husband and I hired Music in Motion for wedding October 7h, 2017. Roberto and Matt did an excellent job from our ceremony music to the entertainment for our reception. Our initial meeting was with the owner Mike and from there everything went smoothly for all of the planning. We were able to use their online planning program to plan all of our ceremony music and reception music. We also used their photobooth services and everyone at our reception loved using the photobooth and we have a full photo album of pictures and a USB drive of all the images and video messages that were left for us.
Could not be happier with Mike and Music in Motion! My wife and I were very concerned when it came to choosing a dj for our wedding and after reading the reviews and speaking with Mike they are 100% accurate, he is the best! I had multiple requests when it came to the ceremony and the entrances of the bridal party and he nailed everything! He found all the music that we were looking for from beginning to end and he was extremely entertaining. My family loved him and there wasn't a single person sitting the entire event. Thank you so much Mike for an outstanding job and making our day such a memorable event! Will recommend to all our family and friends.
We hired Mike to MC our wedding along with an assistant and added on a photo booth as well. We did a teleconference meet and greet and got to know him a bit and him know us, picked from his database what we wanted for the guests and vibe at our wedding and he executed it perfectly. We wanted a dance party - and he made sure that's what we got! Mike not only kept the pace of dancing by playing the right songs but was creative and able to have the guests sit when we needed to do a speech, a dance, etc and the night flowed flawlessly. Mike came over to check on us about half way through the night, which we appreciated very much. He let our good friend Bob on the mike for a live solo which was so meaningful and not all MCs will allow that. Anyway, compliments to Music In Motion for a great wedding and a party for the ages!
He was an incredible DJ and accommodated us as things changed even on that day. He made everything flow easy and we got so many compliments about the music. Can't thank him enough!
