Pro: One of the sweetest people I know now! He really brings a fun loving energy!
Pro: He played all our songs as we requested for the ceremony part, first dance, cake, etc. Our first dance song was spliced sections instead of the full song, a...nd he nailed it.
Pro: He gave us fog and cold sparks for our first dance that did come as part of the package, but I felt like they were timed super well with our first dance! When we asked to use them for another song later, he said they were a one time use, which I guess still would have been good to know beforehand, but they looked great once!
Con: We went over with him on the phone how to pronounce our name (and so did the wedding planner day-of) and he still mispronounced it for our big introduction.
Con: We sent over a list of 5-6 pages of songs we wanted, sorted by vibe. We had 10 or so must-play songs. He played about 7 of them and the vast majority of songs that were played other than the specific times (first dance, cake, etc) were not on my extensive list. I had spent 6 months listening to my “wedding playlist” getting excited for the wedding just to get there and not know many of the songs played. I also had to ask him to play just one slower song since the crowd was mostly older people, and I didn’t feel like he picked a great one for our guests.
Overall, DJ Skippo is a great guy and is really good at being a DJ and I would recommend him as long as you’re ok with him picking your music outside of your main songs.
