Phil is incredibly friendly, and he wants to make the bride and groom happy. He is honest, hard-working, and organized. He arrived to the event with ample time to set up and did a wonderful job at both our ceremony and reception. Id recommend him to anyone. He really knows what he is doing.

Manna Music was a valuable partner in planning the "feel" of our reception with our song selections for each phase of the evening. The Manna Music website was easy to use and Phil was especially friendly and helpful. He helped us problem-solve and make our song requests work during the wedding party intro. We totally recommend Phil's services.

We were fortunate enough to have Manna Music DJ at our wedding.

As it is, most people consider the DJ to be the most important detail of the wedding... other than the bride and groom of course. Finding someone who can sit behind some speakers and play some music off of his / her iPod is a quality that you can find pretty much anywhere in a world that runs off of Apple.

Manna Music is not that kind of a company.

After a 3 hour face to face conversation with Phil at Manna Music, I knew that this was the company for us. Not only was he passionate about his job, he was passionate about making the reception exactly what you and your spouse want. This is a rare quality in a world of people trying to make a quick buck.

There's also a level of relaxation that just can't be matched anywhere else. Our DJ Phil made sure to call me if he had any questions, do research on his own if he was unclear, and made sure he had a backup for everything. There was simply nothing that could go wrong!

Every wedding reception is going to have a few people who drink a little bit too much; this means that the DJ is going to hear the same song request over and over again. Of course, this happened to Phil... who again handled himself very professionally. He kindly explained to our guests that the bride and groom had selected a certain list of songs, and in the interest of keeping the night the way they had planned, he was going to fulfill his promise to do so.

Normally I'm not one to sit down and write a review for someone, and seldom do we see people go out of there way to say something especially nice about a company or even an individual who works for said company. Because of the level of integrity and respect that we were given before, on, and after our wedding day, Manna Music deserves nothing less than a perfect rating.

Manna Music is right on par with pricing, but the difference is the quality of service. I interviewed with 15 DJ's (which is pure insanity, I know) and Manna Music was able to fall right in the same price range as all the others. When I told them that they were the company I was going with, we were actually able to make a few price changing decisions, as I'm sure they'll cooperate to do the same for you. Again, something that is worth every penny!

Being in a technology field myself, I was able to keep up with some of the specs that Manna Music uses for their equipment. It's top of the line, and it is state of the art. If you don't believe me, I'm sure they'd be happy to provide you with a list of the equipment they use and you can go out and do your own research; however I suggest you save yourself some time and just wedding plan. Take my word for it, it's top of the line stuff.

I would only suggest Manna Music to the following future wedding goers:

Those who want a perfect wedding day
Those who want to have the best reception (aside from ours of course)
Those who want a great memory of a great day

From the bottom of my heart, I hope that you read this review and consider Manna Music for your wedding!

Thank you Manna Music for making our day perfect!

Respectfully,
The Zurek's

Phil was fantastic to work with. From the beginning of planning, he shared his experience with us. He returned phone calls promptly when we contacted him. All speeches/toasts where given in a timely fashion, but not rushed. The day of the wedding he read the crowd perfectly and played songs that matched our guests. The dance floor was packed! Even when someone took a spill (along with their glass and drink) on the dance floor, Phil knew exactly what to do in order to keep the reception moving. He was responsive to all requests. Many guests requested cards from him. We also received many, many complements on our DJ selection. We would highly recommended Phil for your wedding.

We were very happy with our choice of DJ in Manna Music. Phil was EXCELLENT. He always kept the dance floor packed and was very attentive to all requests that we made of him. He made sure everything was PERFECT, from the pronunciation of names to the selection of the next song. The online interface on his website that allows you to browse songs and select them for certain parts of the wedding, as well as the do-not-play and request lists, were a great feature. The equipment that he used made everything sound wonderful, even in the acoustically challenging venue that we had chosen. We HIGHLY recommend Phil for his excellent service.

Phil was a great DJ and he did a fantastic job at our wedding. Our guests loved him, loved the music and we all had a blast. The entire crowd - all ages - danced all night. The floor was always full and we attribute that to Phil playing to the crowd.

We would definitely choose Manna Music again. Phil was diligent in the planning and kept in constant communication with us leading up to the wedding; I never felt like he was annoyed when I called (like some vendors do). He met with us a few times ensuring he understood the type of reception we wanted, helped us select songs, including suggesting great/unique alternatives, and followed through on everything. He attended to the tiniest of detail, things we never thought of, and appreciated that so much. At the reception our dinner was significantly behind schedule and Phil helped us get things back on track by moving it along, without anyone feeling rushed. We can say with confidence that our wedding reception was a huge success and much of that had to do with our choosing Manna Music.

DJ Phil Manna from Manna Music did our wedding on May 14th, 2010. He did an absolutely fantastic job. The dance floor was hopping all night. There was never a dull moment. I planned my wedding from out of state and he kept in complete contact with me through email and telephone. He gave great advice on how to pick the right music for the ceremony and the reception. He also set up a picture reel in my reception room that ran all night. My guests loved it! Outstanding job overall. I would recommend Manna Music to all of my friends. Thanks Phil! Sheri

Phil was the best part of our reception. He had the party going from start to end! I got over 50 compliments about how great he was! The dj was the most important part of our reception, so we did alot of searching. My husband and myself are so happy with the service Phil provided. By far the best dj I have ever heard anywhere! I woult rate him a 10!

I can't even begin to explain how awesome our wedding was because of Phil from Manna Music. It started with the first consultation where he was prepared with contracts, movies from previous weddings, and song lists from his music library. Whenever I had a question he was more than happy to answer it, and really took the time to make sure that everything was perfect for our wedding. You can tell that he really cares, and enjoys, what he is doing because it shows through his work. He played great songs that the crowd wanted to hear while still sticking to my requests. I'm proud to say that 95% of my guests were dancing the whole time, and I attribute that to the great music. Phil from Manna Music is an excellent recommendation and worth every penny (which was VERY reasonable :) Thank you so much Manna Music and we will be recommending you to anyone that needs a GREAT DJ!

If you want a DJ that that knows what he's doing and has the best equipment and sound you need to call Phil. He was always very helpful, honest, prepared, full of ideas and well organized. He kept our guests dancing and everyone at our wedding was blown away by how amazing the sound was! He played the room and the dance floor was packed all night. He was flexible and always wanted the best for us on our wedding day. I can't praise him enough. I would recommend him to anyone that is looking for a quaility person that will get to know you and your desires for your event. He did everything in his power to make the day amazing and he did just that. We love Phil, he rocks!

You must use Phil....He is absolutely amazing!!! We were shopping for DJ's and were very close to selecting someone else until I talked to Phil on the phone. Once we talked to him, we knew he was the right one for us. Every single time we spoke, he was full of energy and we could tell he loves what he does. We met with him once we selected him, again about a month before the wedding and spoke with him plenty in between. I am not always big on emailing and anytime I would call him, he would either answer or call me right back. He recently updated his system of getting all of the information he needs and it is very user friendly. We liked that he did not just make us choose a list of songs to play, he let us choose some of our favorites and took it from there. We had a couple of last minute changes which did not phase him and he was unbelievable. With our wedding only having about 55 people, we were worried that our dance floor would be empty but thanks to Phil, we finally had to shut things down because nobody wanted to leave. Phil, you were absolutely amazing and we would highly reccomend you to anyone.
