Michael Scott with Puttin' on the Hitz was the perfect choice to DJ our recent wedding. Michael is incredibly kind, responsive, and just all around great at what he does!

Michael was a great DJ. He helped so much with our day and had the dance floor packed all night long! He was great to communicate with and had everything laid out perfectly. Thanks Michael!
Michael was fantastic to work with. He called us a few weeks before the wedding for a 45 minute call to discuss the details of our event and to make sure we got exactly what we wanted. Michael was great on “game day.” He played all the songs we requested and the songs he supplemented were perfectly selected. Throughout our experience with Michael, he was always professional and courteous. I would absolutely recommend.

Puttin’ on the Hitz and our DJ, Michael Scott, did an absolutely fantastic job every step of the way. Early on in the process, Michael was very communicative and helped us select all the services we wanted while staying within our budget. Closer to the wedding, Michael provided great insight into how the reception should flow and how we should schedule entrances / speeches / dances to create the best night for our guests. Everything went off without a hitch on our wedding day, and all of our guests loved the music. Michael played a huge role in making our special day as amazing as it was, and I can’t recommend him highly enough.

We had DJ Puttin' on the Hitz, specifically Josh Westbrook of their available DJs, emcee and DJ our wedding. We were so happy with their service leading up to the wedding and could not have asked for a better DJ during the wedding. We have had several guests tell us it was one of the best receptions that they have been to & the dance floor was packed all night long!
We were so impressed with Micheal's day of presence throughout our wedding day. He did a marvelous job in ensuring he was executing our vision and did so in a way that allowed us to let him take the reins. His prep work allowed him to be an independent partner, while ensuring he aligned with what we envisioned for our day. We couldn't have asked for a better partner!!
Michael was very flexible with all of our ideas, and made owned the night! We didn't have to think about anything when it came to timing or production!

We knew exactly what everything cost and the information sheet we filled out was easy to do. The process of choosing songs was pretty seamless.

Overall, the experience was great and we highly recommend this business.
Michael and Puttin' on the Hitz were great to work with! Our dance floor was full of guests all night and the music was perfect. What I loved most about working with Michael was the phone call after we already filled out the questionnaire on the website. It just made us feel like he really wanted to get to know our crowd and how to get them dancing all night! I would recommend Puttin' on the Hitz to every bride!

His set up was very professional and it’s clear that he takes pride in what he does. Michael made the atmosphere upbeat and fun and kept us on schedule. 10/10 would recommend!
Michael did an awesome job at our wedding reception last month. We had a variety of ages at our party, so I was worried about finding music that would appeal to all guests. He did a great job of keeping people dancing while also incorporating our guests' song requests. We appreciated the online planning tool and the phone call we had with him prior to our event to sort out logistics and discuss details. He was responsive, punctual, and easy-going during the planning process. Thanks, Michael!
We loved Michael Scott from Puttin on the Hitz! He was easy going and accommodated our last minute requests like a boss! Got many compliments from guests! Kept us dancing all night long!
Michael Scott is absolutely amazing, he’s very professional and organized throughout the entire planning process, and gets into it at the event. Our entire dance floor was packed the whole night!
Overall great experience with Puttin on the Hitz!! Mike and his crew are very experienced and professional. There is no other choice when it comes to DJ’s than Puttin on the Hitz. Would recommend to anyone looking to have a great time!!
Michael was a blast to work with and our families had no problem interacting with him as well! He was welcoming, friendly, and very easy to approach at any time. He was on time and stayed a little later to help keep the party going. Much appreciated and, while we won’t be doing another wedding (hopefully ever again), we would highly recommend his service!
Michael from Puttin' on the Hitz was wonderful and we would recommend him to anyone! He did a great job keeping guests on the dance floor ALL night. Michael was also great to work with throughout the process from booking to going over details and the day of. We had a couple specific announcements (parking, dessert service, etc) that we asked him to make and he did so timely and thoughtfully to keep guests informed and having fun! In my opinion, who you choose for your DJ will set the tone of your reception and we would choose him again in a heartbeat!
Puttin' on the Hitz was great to work with. Great DJ/Emcee for a wedding!
Puttin’ on the Hitz is the best DJ!! They did my sisters wedding 10 years and did fantastic! We’d dreamed of having them do my wedding as well ever since then. Now they have and did not disappoint! The dance floor was bumping all night and created such a good atmosphere! They did an amazing job and were so easy to work with! Highly recommend!
Michael was easy to communicate with and wet professional. Ryan was the one to DJ for us and we received so many compliments for our music!! Everyone was on the dance floor all night.
This DJ was used at a friend's wedding ~10 years ago and we were thrilled to see that he's still in business. We had to postpone our wedding once due to COVID restrictions and Michael from Puttin on the Hitz stayed with us through all the chaos of rescheduling. His communication with us was always proactive and timely and straightforward. He never had me worrying about what to expect. The tunes he played were FANTASTIC, and exactly what we wanted. He was also super flexible when I asked him at the last minute to do something extra (provide sound for the outdoor ceremony when our other sound system fell through). He was so flexible and provided us with everything we needed. He's so professional, fun, and entertaining. My mom even raved about how easily he could be understood when he announced the wedding party entrance! This guy knows how to DJ. HIGHLY recommend all around.
Michael made our reception into one of the most fun nights of our lives. Our friends and family, young and old, all were dancing and signing along with the music. He also did a wonderful job with the audio for the wedding ceremony and cocktail hour. I would highly recommend him and his company for any and all private events!
Michael Scott scheduled a phone call with me a few weeks before our wedding. He was so helpful and shared so much knowledge! We wanted to do a DJ/Photographer challenge which was new to Michael and it was such a hit!! He was quick with emails, flexible with changes and just wanted us to have the best night!
very easy to work with. the request form and consultation phone call were a breeze. we asked for good bar music during cocktail hour and dinner and the DJ delivered. kept people out on the dance floor even with a small group
Mike is such an amazing DJ! After reading other reviews and booking with Puttin On the Hitz, communication was foremost; anytime we had a question or concern the company was promptly responsive. The company has years of experience and is flexible within choice of venue, indoor and outdoor. Mike met us at our venue for a walk through, to ensure (my anxiety) about sound checks were put to ease. About a month before our wedding and final "itineraries" were made, DJ had all the relevant points covered: when the first dance was, who was making a speech etc. He announced everything happening, guiding guests throughout the night. The price is extremely reasonable & the music set the perfect tone for all the moments on our special day! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
My wife and I love to dance. Are we particularly good? No. Do we have a good time flailing about to good music? Oh yea. It does depend on the vibe and playlist of course on how long our dancing shoes stay on. Puttin' on the Hitz kept the vibe good through the entire night. I've never had so many people say they've never seen a dance floor so continually packed at a wedding. Thank you Ryan and Michael!
Michael Scott was excellent. He was professional, personable, and fun to work with. He did not miss beat during the ceremony, playing beautiful welcome music and hitting all of the ceremony songs. He was able to keep the reception party going with songs that appealed to a wide range of ages. 100/10 would recommend!
Putting’ on the Hitz provided an excellent DJ service for our wedding reception. They were timely, responsive, flexible, and professional. Additionally, the assortment of music played was great and all requested songs throughout the night were played.
Michael did an excellent job. The background music for arrival/dinner was at an appropriate volume for the venue. His ability to communicate with us regarding coordination and keep the night moving along was great. He did an awesome job keeping everyone engaged. Finally, Michael's personality and approach are something I have not seen much. You can definitely tell he enjoys putting on a party, dancing to the music, and having a good time. I highly recommend Puttin' on the Hitz and will have them in my back pocket for future events!
Michael Scott helped to make our daughter's wedding reception a perfect one. He kept the music lowkey as requested during dinner and played our daughter and son-in-law's playlist, later in the evening. He was well organized, professional and we would highly recommend his services for any event you are planning. 5 out 5 stars! Thank you, Michael!
Puttin' on the Hitz did a great job from start to finish with our wedding and reception! They provided us with microphones for the ceremony which was a huge help at our venue. The music during dinner was perfect. The dance was loads of fun with a variety of music played and they stuck to the list we had provided. Everyone had a wonderful time! Definitely an A+ experience and would recommend them highly!
Michael did a fantastic job at our wedding. Would recommend him for any wedding or party.
Michael was AMAZING to work with! He kept the party going and did an awesome job with song requests. On his website he offers song advice for each aspect of the wedding, which we found to be very helpful and a nice touch. About a week prior to the wedding, we had a phone call with Michael to discuss all logistics for the wedding day including song choices and timeline. Michael was so helpful and thorough during this process that my husband and I were fully able to relax and trust he was going to do a great job! We highly recommend Michael for your wedding DJ!
No one plans to get married during a pandemic but despite all that we had the best time at our reception because of our DJ! They were a great price, fun and flexible we can’t recommend them enough!
