Hire GenNow!!

I can not express how amazing our wedding was because of GenNow. They were so professional from the beginning. Tim walked us through the options, met with us in person before the wedding, and the whole crew gave us the epic dance party we were hoping for. We used DJ Mad Mardigan for our DJ and we also used Daniel, a violinist through GenNow, for our ceremony music and it was absolutely beautiful. Daniel is extremely talented and he brought my exact vision of my ceremony to life.
DJ Mad Mardigan is truly the best there is. Multiple guests raved about his skills and how the dance floor was packed the entire night! I highly recommend GenNow! Not only for weddings, but any event that you may need to provide music. Our wedding was so memorable because of them!

Wonderfull DJ!!

GenerationNOW was a wonderful company to work with from start to finish! We had an initial call with Tim who helped us narrow down what package we would like and from there met with our DJ, Matt, who did a phenomenal job at incorporating a mix of music we loved from slow dances to lots of Taylor Swift for us Swifties to the club music after 9pm! We also added on the ceremony package which was great! Highly recommend GenerationNOW for your wedding reception :)

Hire generation now for your wedding!

Generation NOW was AWESOME! Everyone at our wedding kept telling us how great the DJ was and asking who they were. Even our photographer wanted their info so she could recommend them to others who are getting married. We had DJ Mad Mardigan (Nick) and he treated us like family, yet stayed professional. He made sure that everything we wanted for the reception got done the way we wanted, and that everyone had a great time dancing and celebrating. Their equipment was high quality, and they were great as getting people on the dance floor and keeping them there. There wasn't a minute of our wedding reception that wasn't fun and it's mostly thanks to Generation NOW and DJ Mad Mardigan!!! We highly recommend them for any event and they were worth every penny. Thank you so much for making our night one to remember and for making us feel so special.
