Frank is hands down the BEST DJ/Emcee in the wedding industry and I cannot possibly say enough about the incredible job he did on our wedding day.
My husband and I attended a wedding before ours where Frank was the DJ, and we knew immediately we wanted him to be one of our vendors. Frank’s verbiage in the wedding we attended was personalized, beautifully said, and reflected the couples personalities and desires for their wedding perfectly. Deciding to hire him after attending our friends wedding was a no-brainer for us.
Leading up to our wedding, we had quite a few calls with Frank to confirm song selections, timelines and many other important wedding aspects. Through every interaction we had with him, Frank was personable and we could tell he truly cared so much about our wedding day and our experience being top notch. My husband and I got off every call with him excited and feeling so relieved knowing that the noise and energy of our wedding was in Frank’s hands. The day of the wedding, Frank was prompt, professional, and incredibly generous in his service to us. He got to know our guests (personally dismissing each one to dinner and asking them how they knew my groom and I!), joined the dance floor to keep the atmosphere high energy, and made an effort to make personable connections with not only us, but our guests/family members as well. He made sure there was never a quiet or awkward moment, but met each special wedding tradition with honoring and beautiful music that we will cherish forever. We HIGHLY recommend giving yourself the gift of Frank as your wedding DJ/Emcee. He will exceed your expectations and fulfill your wildest wedding ceremony and reception dreams! Can’t recommend him enough!!!
My wife and I hired DJ Frank for an odd adult prom party (not that kind of adult party, get your head out of the gutter). He was a total baller. The music was perfect. We danced the night away. He interacted with the crowd, led some fun dances, knew everyone's name (no idea how he did that, 50-60- people). He rolled with the punches when the plan shifted. There will be another party and we will absolutely hire him again. I couldn't recommend enough. Thanks, DJ FRANK! Keep on rock'n in the free world!
I can't recommend Frank enough! Simply put, Frank is a true professional. During the planning process he was responsive, communicative, and helped us shape a plan for our day. Day-of, he was so helpful and engaging with us, worked seamlessly with our coordinator and wedding party, and was incredibly friendly and gracious with our guests. Multiple people came up to us during the evening and in the days after saying "Frank was such a great DJ and so fun to chat with!" Where Frank really went above and beyond our expectation was in helping us and our coordinator execute the evening. Especially when little things didn't go perfectly to plan, he helped our coordinator make schedule adjustments, was quick on his feet with last-minute announcements, and generally brought a ton of creativity and helpfulness to our day. When it was time to dance, Frank put together an incredible playlist (per our request it was a combination of our song choices and his curation). When he wasn't behind the DJ booth, Frank was out on the dance floor with us, which was so much fun! At times during the planning process, we entertained the idea of not hiring a DJ to save some money. I cannot emphasize enough how glad we are that we opted to hire Frank. He made a huge contribution to our wedding experience, and to the experience that our guests shared. Thank you, Frank!!

Hi Laura and Harper!
What a kind and thoughtful review! It was a sensational celebration and I had so much fun finding out how everyone was connected to you both. I still have a batch of Jean’s lavender, too!😊🌸🌺🎹
With love & music,
Frank
Any questions?
Frank is a phenomenal DJ. He brings such energy and passion to the event. He goes out of his way to personalize your playlist and really interact with the crowd getting everyone excited and on the dance floor.
Frank is hands down the best!!! Leading up to our wedding day, he took the time to get to know us and understand what our vision was for our day. Frank even met us at our venue walkthru a couple of weeks before. He was so welcoming and has a tremendous amount of knowledge. We knew we found the best!
On our wedding day, Frank took care of everything!! He guided our guests, helped them all feel so welcome, and got to know them by name! He kept everything flowing so perfectly. If there were any hiccups, we never knew about them. The music was perfect, lights he provided amazing, and everyone had the best time!
Our wedding was a dream come true, and Frank and his team made it that much more special!! We will forever recommend Spatkle and Wit and look forward to the day we can work with Frank again.
My wife and I really liked working with Frank. He had several suggestions for our song list. The day went really smoothly.
Afterwards several guests mentioned to me that our DJ/MC did an excellent job and really hit it out of the park.
My wife and I found Frank through our wedding venue. It was single handedly the best referral we received. From start to finish, the process was seamless. He helped us with all our prep work, but he also sat back and listened to our vision and gave valuable input. He even added to our playlist some hard to find classic Korean songs which we requested. During our reception, he pulled double duty as DJ and MC. All our guests fell in love with him from the start, and both parents were so grateful for his professionalism and talent. He has a pleasant life of the party demeanor, but he ensures the focus never falls off of you. I can't recommend him enough, and I can say with the utmost confidence, he is the best decision you will make on your special day.
Frank was phenomenal! Before the event, he was thorough in getting our vision and coaching us through all the details that we hadn't thought of. He kept the event on time, and high energy on the dance floor!
Would absolutely work with him again!
Frank and Matt were great! Timely, professional, and helped very much in keeping things moving (including when there was a minor medical situation that required delaying the ceremony). Very grateful for their contributions and would absolutely recommend them to anybody!
Frank and Matt were great. Frank was engaged the whole night and really helped move the night along. He took care of details so we didn’t have to stress. The DJ set up looked great and the lights were awesome too. Would absolutely recommend paying the little extra for the MC and DJ package.
Frank was such a great MC! He was very engaging with our guests during the wedding and communicated very well with us before the wedding! He has such a great energy to him and will make your day the very best.
Where do I begin? Frank is extraordinary. We met him at the Seattle Wedding Show and from the moment we walked up to him, he made us feel like we had known him for years. Fast forward to mid-wedding planning, Frank was absolutely incredible. Always available for questions or talking through our wedding dreams, but also added such thoughtful suggestions and recommendations that made our wedding day the most perfect day! My favorite moment was when Frank called everyone out on the dance floor for a “Best Wishes” dance - it got every single one of our guests up on the dance floor. I’ll never forget the feeling of being surrounded by our family and friends like that - all thanks to Frank. Even our guests were raving about him! He was poised, had the perfect amount of energy, made the night go so smoothly with cute ways of transitioning between moments so all our guests were aware of what was going on, and just made us feel so special all around. He is a man of many talents, and I would recommend him to anyone wanting a day that is full of meaningful moments. We still talk about him to this day!

Dear Molly and Dan -
Thank you for your fantastic review and for allowing me to be part of your big day!
Frank was instrumental in making our wedding night run smoothly. Frank wasn’t just the MC but he was also a photographer for us. We didn’t have a photographer and had other people take lots of pictures. Frank was one of the people who took the most pictures, having us do special poses and all. (The pictures turned out amazing!) Our DJ kept the music going steadily and played all our requests. Any issues with the playlist were brought to our attention way beforehand. Frank is wonderful and professional. Frank was very personable and Frank fit right in like he was apart of the family. Frank coming to our event made everything so much more magical for us! We recommend them for any event you may be planning as they did an OUTSTANDING job. We will be forever grateful for them. -Mark & Austin

Hey, Marquez and Austin!
Thank you so much for your great review! It was my pleasure to be with you on your big day together. Cheers!
Highly recommend Frank Salerno! Frank made the wedding planning easy and then the day of made the whole day so personable. Frank is genuine with each guest, wanting to meet and know everyone! Then he honors the guests and any special people for the bride, groom, and the guest!! He was out on the dance floor doing all the dances with us, keeping the dance floor full the ENTIRE night! The music, the fading out, and the announcements from the MC were all perfect.
His emails, conference calls assured me that the whole day would go just as I envisioned & then when the big day came it was even better than I envisioned too! This business’ biography and name is everything about who Frank is. Even though clever isn’t what he is aiming for the “Wit”, Frank as MC is quite fun to work with. His cleverness to announcing our wedding party, the songs he adds for “walk up songs” to the toasters, & his opening/closing comments prior to events kept us smiling the whole night. He gets to know each guest & then remembers special things about them too. I could go on & on about this phenomenal MC.
I hope to see Frank at more weddings that I am a guest at in the near future!

HI Elle and Carson!
Thank you for your glowing recommendation and review! I hope to see you at more weddings in the near future, too!
If you are looking for an outgoing, gregarious and engaging MC, Frank is the one! Look no further! He engages with the audience and makes things very personal and noting special people in the audience that the bride and groom would like to honor. Frank does a conference call prior to the big day to find out what needs to be highlighted. Be specific with what you want and communicate well with him.

Wow! Thank you so much for the 5-star review. It means a lot to me, JoAnn, as you are the mother of the bride, but also a professional wedding planner!
