Our wedding was nearly perfect, and a lot of that perfection is due to Liz Daley. She was amazing, start to finish. We wanted a unique wedding that incorporated a lot of different events and moments and Liz was not only on board with us, but right there making suggestions and offering opinions the whole way. She is not "in your face" at all, but will not hesitate to make suggestions that are based in her extensive experience and expertise. We met with her several times prior to our wedding to make sure it was exactly how we wanted it. Her skills and planning and organizing drove the entire wedding- she is far more than a DJ or even a Master of Ceremonies- she was really the nucleus of our entire event. She even brought in her close friend Peter Merry to work with her- and made the day beyond simply amazing to extraordinary. I am proud to say that Liz was not only the force behind our special day, but she is also now a friend to both my husband and I. I cannot more highly recommend her.

As a first time Mother of the Bride, I was a bit overwhelmed with the sheer amount of organization and careful attention to detail that went into the planning of my daughter's June 2, 2012 wedding. One of the details that I realized was one of the most important components was the selection of the Emcee/DJ. Our choice of Liz Daley of Liz Daley Events, was probably one of the smartest things I've ever done. From the beginning, Liz was remarkable. She was patient and understanding as this slightly frazzled MOB attempted to describe the type of reception we were hoping for. Liz earned her place in our high esteem when she carefully detailed the contribution that an Emcee could make in creating an atmosphere that was in keeping with our vision of a warm and inclusive wedding dinner while incorporating the celebratory and fun elements that my daughter and her fiance wanted with their friends afterwards. With Liz's guidance the entire evening was perfect; our guests have continued to contact us after the wedding to share their thoughts and memories of that great evening. Without Liz Daley at the helm, the event would simply not have been as poignant and sweet yet filled with laughter and true fellowship and some crazy dancing!

Since meeting Liz, we have laughed, we have cried and ultimately, we have made a new friend. She made our wedding stand out and so memorable. In the weeks and months leading up the wedding, Liz invited us to her home and spent countless hours with us, helping us to plan out the smallest details. Her creative ideas made our wedding unique and special. Her energy and laughter are contagious and her knowledge and ability to keep the party going are unequalled. She did such an AMAZING JOB!

We used Liz as our DJ, Master of Ceremonies and Wedding Planner. She is extremely flexible and the true professional.

I cannot say enough about Liz Daley. I am a music FANATIC and she showed that off for me. Her attention to detail and endless possibilities made planning our reception SO MUCH FUN. She is so enthusiastic and truly knows what she's doing. I had SO many guests comment on our music and all i could say is "Liz Daley is the best!"

If you love music, love to dance, or want a DJ that knows what she's doing BEYOND playing music, book Liz. She can also help you PLAN your wedding or COORDINATE your wedding. She's truly an all-inclusive package that is SO worth the money.

You won't regret it. I promise.

Liz was awesome! She was extremely organized and attentive. I highly recommend her to any bride who is looking for a wedding 'oversee-er' / DJ, especially if you are really new to wedding planning and/or selecting music and entertainment for an event. Hire Liz! You won't be disappointed.

I really can't say enough about Liz and her partner Charles. Three weeks before my daughters wedding our scheduled DJ cancelled. I find Liz Daley Events on the website, and after talking with her on the phone, she came to our rescue. Had appointment to meet her and Charles the following Wed, and just loved the professionalism and ideas they came up with to make the song selections for the bridal party so much fun during the reception. Was blessed to get Charles, he helped make my daughter's day very special. I would not hesitate to use their services again and send to referral busniess.

Our DJ was wonderful! Liz is so great and easy to work with. She has a huge library of music and was able to keep the dance floor going strong all night! We had people of all ages – from our grandparents to our friends entertained all night. You can tell that she really loves what she does! She was also our coordinator on the big day, and everything was perfect and went off without a hitch. We also used her for our ceremony music, which was very convenient. I would definitely recommend Daley DJ’s!

With less than six months to plan a wedding, my husband and I were in desperate need of help for our big day this past winter. With countless details to consider, our priorities included finding a wedding coordinator/planner, a master of ceremonies and DJ. After a bit of research and various recommendations, we decided to meet with Liz Daley to discuss our wedding plans. Within minutes of meeting with Liz, we quickly knew she would be the perfect fit to help us create the wedding we both envisioned. Step by step, she helped us through the planning process and made us comfortable and confident that our day would go smoothly. When the big day came, Liz not only met, but exceeded, all of our expectations and was fabulous – both as our master of ceremonies and DJ. All of our guests had a wonderful time, and we came away from the experience knowing that it was exactly as perfect as we both had hoped it would be. Without a doubt, we confidently recommend Liz to anyone in search of someone with wedding expertise – we were tremendously happy and grateful for all she did for us and are certain she will provide a similar experience for others!

Two weeks before my wedding I found out that I needed a new DJ. I was blessed to get Charles. As soon as I got to the reception he was there to make my life easier. He helped us with the final song selections for the bridal party, and he handled things beautifully when the fire alarm was accidentally set off at the reception site. People came up to me, my parents, and my new husband to tell us this was the most fun they'd had at a wedding. We had some funny and touching moments during the reception. My personal faves were the compatiability quiz, and when the longest married couple in the room gave me and my new husband advice. The music was enjoyed by all. The song choices totally rocked. My DJ totally provided quality service and was responsive and flexible with me and my quests. I couldn't have asked for more. He helped make my day very special.
Liz Daley Events/Daley DJs responded with the following comments:
Christie...I'm so glad that Charles was available and that we were able to assist you at the last minute. Congratulations and much happiness!

I was torn between using a DJ that two of my friends had used for their wedding, both of which I attended, and Liz whom I didn’t know anything about. I decided to meet with Liz and after spending an hour or so with her me and my fiancé left feeling very comfortable with the idea of hiring Liz and we couldn’t be happier with our decision.

Liz wasn’t available to do our wedding but we were left in very capable hands. Charles worked with my planner and caterer to make sure everything flowed beautifully throughout the evening and kept me apprised of everything that was going on. He also asked for my permission to play requests made by the guests for songs not on my play list that were either explicit or odd, which I really appreciated. He read the crowd like a charm and knew exactly what to play and when. Everyone had such a great time.

From the very beginning of the process until the very end, Liz went above and beyond the services outlined in the contract to make sure that our wedding was everything we had envisioned it would be. I had mentioned to Liz during one of our planning meetings that we weren’t going to hire a photographer for the wedding ceremony, which was at midnight (we did things backwards – reception first and ceremony last) and that we were going to rely on guests to take photos and share them with us. With an open bar, Liz was concerned that after drinking for 4 hours, the guests would not make the best photographers and offered to have Charles take some for us. As it turns out, Liz stopped by after her event and took the pictures herself which were beautiful and ended up being the only pictures that I have of the ceremony that turned out. Thanks Liz for giving us such a wonderful and lasting wedding gift.

Liz and Charles were a pleasure to work with – very professional and responsive. I would not hesitate to use their services again.

As we were planning the wedding, my mother's biggest concern was that everyone would have a GREAT time. We had guests from France and the U.S. and there was a language barrier. Accordingly, my mother scoped out as many DJs as possible in the Richmond, Chesapeake, and Hampton Roads area. When she found Liz and we talked to her, we immediately decided to hire her. She did not let us down! The music was amazing, the mix and the ambiance among the people could not have been better. We had lots of married guests come to us and tell us it was the most fun wedding they have ever been to. This was all thanks to Liz's expertise. She mixed french and american music beautifully during dinner and the selections for the dance floor were outstanding. If you are seeking a guaranteed good time at a wedding, Liz is the woman for you! If you are stressed about everything running smoothly, Liz is also the woman for you! She kept things on track and on time. Her service could not have been better and I would recommend her to everyone looking for a good time on their special day!!

From the first moment we met Liz, we knew that we were in good hands. Even though Liz was not handling our event on the day of the wedding, she showed a special interest in helping us plan out our wedding day and make sure that every moment was perfect and tailored to us as a couple. She spent hours planning out the timing of our wedding reception, and helped us choose music that enhanced each special moment, from the introductions into the grand ballroom, to the garter/bouquet toss, to the cake cutting, etc. Not only that, but Liz also served as a liason between my husband and I and the staff at the reception site. She facilitated emails, sent schedules, and helped get everyone on the same page. Not having hired a professional wedding planner, this turned out to be a huge help.

On top of that, we got to work with Charles on the day of our event. Charles was incredibly warm and fun-loving from the first moment we met him. Importantly, he obviously stayed on top of musical trends and was aware of what were the "hottest" songs to play at our reception across a wide variety of musical genres, including country, R&B, and pop. My husband and I wanted to include a lot of nontraditional moments in our wedding reception to liven things up a bit for our guests, and Charles made that desire a reality. Charles played along with every oddball request we made of him, including our desire that he round up all the children present at the wedding and encourage them to engage in a dance-off. Charles was able to get all the children excited, and even passed out gag gift prizes to the children who participated. There were countless other examples of Charles going along with every request of the bride and groom, and making our dream of a unique and fun reception a reality. We received a lot of compliments on how our wedding was very fun and very "us." I know that the special musical touches and moments we designed with Liz and Charles are a large reason for that. By hiring Daley DJs, we got more than just background noise-- we got a PARTY!

Finally, Charles and Liz were the most professional of all the vendors that we worked with during the wedding planning process. They return every email and phone call immediately, they are always on time, they are always well-dressed and professional, they are always kind and attentive. Believe it or not, this cannot be said for all vendors in the industry, and working with true professionals makes the life of the bride and groom very easy!

Liz Daley is a treasure, an asset paying dividends from your first meeting, through your wedding day, and beyond. She is steadfast in sound advice, creativity, professionalism, and always has your best interest at heart. Liz took the time to invest in our story; the rapport we established with her was evident in the atmosphere she fostered at our wedding, it was an epic party, a true win for everyone. We are honored to have had the opportunity to work with her and witness first hand what she’s capable of. Words alone cannot justify how Liz Daley went well above and beyond our expectations.

Your friends, Jayson and Rachael Hubbard

Liz was a wonderful DJ at our wedding! In addition to providing her DJ services, Liz was extremely helpful in helping us plan out our whole day. We would have never known the order of things for our ceremony and reception, but Liz made it easy! She also found us an excellent violinist at the last minute to play at our ceremony. We couldn't be happier with Liz and highly recommend her to anyone planning a wedding :-)

Liz Daley made our wedding an amazing event - so much more than just a party. We would love to recommend her to anyone who wants to get married in the Williamsburg area. My husband and I were reminded just how awesome Liz made our reception when we attended another wedding recently. The groom had asked us to share with him the music requests from our wedding because he and his wife had such a great time dancing at our wedding. I shared with him the request lists we gave Liz, including much of the actual playlist she used, and he shared this same information with his DJ. (I'm sure he added a few of his own requests, but his list was quite similar to ours.) At the wedding, the DJ was fine, but he did not create anything like the same energy we had at our wedding. His mix of songs would often stick too long on one genre, and he emptied the dance floor more than once. My mother-in-law actually came up to my husband at one point and said, "Why is the DJ playing this music? Tell him to play something more like what they played at your wedding!" This just goes to show that a DJ is soooo much more than a good playlist. This DJ had all the same information Liz had, but Liz used that information to create a party! Also at another recent wedding, my husband's 13-year-old cousin asked me, "Are all weddings as fun as your wedding?" Kudos to Liz for helping to make our reception an event everyone will remember and talk about for many years to come!
