"We have had the pleasure of working with Richard at A Very Special Day several times. He does a fantastic job at making sure the bride and groom have a wonderful evening and that the dance floor stays packed! I would recommend him to any couple wanting to have a memorable reception!!"
"We have had the pleasure of working with Richard at A Very Special Day on numberous occassions. We refer him to all our brides. They love him!"
"First I must say, I am very particular about whom I refer my couples to any wedding vendor. Richard is one of the most thoughtful, detail-oriented DJs I have ever had the pleasure to witness in 'action.' He is very professional, very concerned about every aspect of a wedding and wedding reception, and is a great listener and hears what our brides say to him. He meets their needs beautifully, and I'll refer brides to him any time an opportunity arises."
"A Very Special Day is exactly what you will receive when you use Richard McClure for your wedding. Excellence is the one word that best describes the service you will receive from this incredibly talented and gifted entertainer. I have never known anyone with so much energy and enthusiasm for what he does. It is a pleasure to work with someone who is so genuine and caring. He truly does go the extra mile and will give you one of the most memorable times of your life. When I see Richard or one of his staff at a wedding that I am officiating, I know that all is well."
"As a wedding consultant have recommended Richard for several Brides this year. My clients and I have been very pleased with Richard and his services. Richard has excellent ideas on how to engage the wedding guests and he is an excellent Master of Ceremonies. He has great equipment and always ensures the sound is zoned correctly for the room space. A Very Special Day not only offers professional DJ services but also excellent lighting. I highly recommend Richard for his knowledge, personality and professionalism. My Brides love him."

Words can not convey how extremely pleased we were with our lighting!!! It was as important to the decor as the carefully planned flower arrangements,
tableclothes,cake, and china.

We were not confident with our ability to define our lighting needs for the wedding. There is so much that can be done and we have limited experience with lighting technology. Richard McClure with AVSD Productions came up with the perfect plan to create the ideal mood and feeling our daughter dreamed of having on her special day. It was magical!!! It tranformed the entire room into an incredible atmosphere way beyond our expectations!!!!

Of all the $$$ spent on wedding, funds for lighting was well spent! ASVD PRODUCTIONS will always have our business not only because they are pros when it comes to detail but they resoled all the breakdowns that can happen when your planning and something goes wrong. Richard McClure's talents and skills were much appreciated. We discovered at the last minute someone else forgot an important part of the reception and Richard was able to fix the problem. I think 5 rating is not high enough for the service and quality we received. We have fond memories, no regrets, and enjoyed every minute of our daughter's wedding! The key to a perfect wedding is to hire good,reliable, professional people. AVSD Productions www.avsdpro.com did amazing work for us. We will be forever thankful we chose them for our lighting needs.

Richard was a great DJ to work with. He was the first vendor I hired and did not look for any other DJ's. We also added the lighting from this same company and we were sooooo pleased! My husband and I totally recommend Richard of a Very Special Day to everyone! If you want your reception program smooth, hire them. I did not have to worry about what was coming next during the reception, Richard took care of keeping track of time and making sure we got to the cake cutting, games, dances, etc. He is just awesome!!! The lighting was a hit and everyone loved it as well.

It was nice to have someone who was not only doing their job wonderfully, but was watching out for/taking care of the bride and the groom. I was very pleased with Richard and Very Special Day and would recommend them to anyone (and everyone).

Richard was absolutely wonderful!! I had some odd/different request for music for the wedding ceremony and he was more than happy to accommodate my needs. He really listened to what my husband and I wanted and the ceremony was a blast because of him! I would recommend him to anyone!

I highly recommend Richard Mclure. He was not only an awesome DJ but an awesome MC and coordinator. He helped make sure everything came together in the wedding and that's something the average DJ doesn't do. His assistants and videographers did an excellent job and everyone was very professional, and they all made sure that we were happy every step of the way. A Very Special Day also did the lighting for our venue, which absolutely accentuated all of the decor that we had and the high ceilings in the room. I couldn't have been more happy with all of the services they provided for my wedding. :)

I used Richard McClure with A Very Special Day for my wedding and was highly impressed! He was accessible through the whole process which made my planning so much easier. He was enthusiastic and very creative. He gave us ideas for fun things to do at our reception that I had never thought of before. They made our reception so much more unique and enjoyable. Richard went above and beyond at the wedding. He did both our ceremony and reception. The lighting they did was fantastic. He engaged the crowd wonderfully; he performed magic tricks that quieted my crying niece; he helped my pregnant photographer set up her lighting; he even blew bubbles around my husband and I on our last dance for a picture-perfect moment. He went above and beyond in every way.

I dealt with Cheryl on the administrative side of things and she was great too- very courteous and prompt to respond to any question I may have had. Their contract was detailed and they delivered on every aspect of the contract. I would recommend them to anyone in the DFW area.

Richard, from A Very Special Day, is a one-of-a-kind DJ. For my wedding, he provided all the music for the ceremony and reception. He executed everything we asked him to do for us perfectly. Even went beyond our expectations. He has a sound system that is unique to all the others out there. He has great ideas, makes it fun for all age groups, and was the highlight of my wedding. Until this day, my friends, family, and guest of the wedding are still saying how great the DJ performance was at my wedding. My advice, don't risk hiring someone you're unsure of. I've used Richard before, and I'm passing on my own personal experienced that I've had with A Very Special Day. He was worth every dollar we invested in him.

Let me start out by saying Richard McClure and his company not only was a great person to work with, but I LITERALLY don't think I could have done this wedding without him. He was able to take charge of the rehersal with all of my out-of-town family/friends and he found the very specific music I wanted for our wedding ceremony -- chinese erhu. He showed up plenty of time before anyone else, kept everyone entertained while we took photos, and even made my husband and I "to-go" boxes of our dinner b/c we had no time to sit and eat! Ladies-- if you leave the DJ planning to your fiancee and you end up meeting Richard thank your stars b/c your soon to be husband picked a great DJ!! (Thats what happend to me :D )

They showed professionalism in every way. Great coverage of our entire day and our video is something we will cherish for ever. Richard and his crew were perfect in every way and were able to record all aspects of the sound that was important to me. We had a bag piper that played outside and inside and he put a special mic on him just to capture that. I couldn't have been happier with the quality. Thanks again guys. - Paul Marshall

Richard McClure and his staff were wonderful! They provided videography and lighting for my wedding. The event was a huge success in part to A Very Special Day. I had the opportunity to see his work before I even thought about getting married as he did my cousin's wedding as well. The video is great- I cry (tear of joy) every time a see it.
