Cannot say enough good things! I was very particular about my wedding music; timing, sequence, what I did/did not want played, literally everything. Marcel was so amazing taking in...
to account all the details I specified. I think every single person in attendance came up to me at the wedding and even days later talking about how much fun our DJ was! Highly recommend the ceremony package, especially if you’re planning an outdoor wedding. One of my personal favorite details was the custom GOBO, it just made the space so much more personalized!
11 out of 10 rating for Nightshift Sounds!! Thank you so much Marcel for making our wedding so amazing!

bride I chose to enjoy the moment verses worrying about last minute details. HATS OFF to Marcel…he was the most amazing, professional, energetic, and interactive, DJ. He pulled all of those lil pieces together and was ready on spot for each detail. Our wedding was outdoors and the preacher & groom had wireless mikes on their shirts that worked perfectly.
We were a 1960’s older couple getting married. From the wedding music, to introductions, fun wedding pics from each table, to cake cutting Marcel had it all going on. He made announcements to keep everyone informed of what was next. We even got to sit down with everyone and actually eat dinner. No stress, no hurry-ip feeling. When the reception was over my new husband said he loved it all so much he wished we could just do it all again because it was all so fun.

e an impressive selection of music and accommodated all of our special requests. My now husband and I had been through the ringer trying to have our wedding three different times throughout COVID-19. When things fell apart the first two times, Marcel was always supportive to us during such a devastating time. His kindness and encouragement is something I will never forget. Even up until crunch time, he was still lifting us up and assuring us that a nearby rocket test launch would not affect our special day. Marcel, I will never be able to write words that could ever come close to the appreciation I have for you. Thank you for being on the ride with us during this crazy journey! Most importantly, thank you for making our fairy tale come to life!!!! The Stanaways love you!!!!!!
