My wife and I hired Whirlin Disc Sound ("WDS") for our recent wedding, where DJ Trae did a wonderful job providing music and keeping our guests entertained. We also hired the phot...obooth and the workers manning the booth created an enjoyable experience for our guests. They all exceeded expectations and then some, and each deserve five stars.
From the beginning, we were extremely impressed with WDS' incredible mix of approachability and professionalism. We had an introductory meeting with WDS eight or nine months before our wedding, where we discussed our early visions for our reception. WDS then gave us access to an app where we could slowly build our playlist by listing songs as "must play," recommended plays, and "do not play."
We built our playlist before meeting with WDS again around two months before our wedding. In this meeting, we went over the playlist we built and discussed our wedding timeline. With guidance, we determined which songs could be played at which point in the evening.
Shortly after this meeting, we were paired up with DJ Trae. DJ Trae did such a fantastic job with the wedding prep and the wedding itself that he deserves his own paragraphs. We first met with DJ Trae a few weeks before the wedding. In that meeting, we went over our wedding timeline again and DJ Trae came prepared with questions for us about that timeline. His attention to detail was impressive. He had a great idea for doing a reverse anniversary dance where the couples who have been married the longest come out on the floor first. There is a good chance that the couple who has been married the longest is the grandparents of either the bride or the groom. This was not the case at my wedding, but I'd imagine this would be a nice moment for the grandparents.
DJ Trae kept in contact with us in the weeks leading up to the wedding, which was helpful when plans inevitably changed. DJ Trae seamlessly integrated these changes into the wedding. And, finally, DJ Trae did a fantastic job at the reception. He masterfully adjusted his playlist on the fly, played a slow dance at our request, and checked in with us to see which song we wanted. He read the energy of the room well and his song selections met or increased the energy as needed. DJ Trae did a fantastic job with the music, and our guests have only had positive things to say about him.
We also had the photobooth. I'd recommend getting this as well. Guests were able to use the photobooth throughout the night. At the end of the night, we received a binder full of photographs and notes from our guests. It's a wonderful keepsake from a wonderful night.
Simply put, if you want to have a fantastic wedding that your guests will rave about, you need to hire WDS.
