The party never stopped!!

If you're looking for someone who will keep the party going all night, Alex is your guy!! Even weeks later, our wedding guests still cannot stop talking about how much fun they had on the dancefloor. Alex was so much fun to work with throughout the planning process. We talked through the vision we had for our day, the mood we were looking to curate in each distinct music timeframe (pre-ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner + reception), and all of the specialty dances. We ended up changing our mind on our first dance song the week of the wedding and Alex had no trouble at all accommodating. He was also able to play a custom created song for our ceremony processional, which made the entire experience feel so personal and bespoke. We opted to do an anniversary dance to honor my new in-laws and they were completely surprised! Alex handled it like a dream. While we don't plan on getting married again anytime soon, he'll be our first call for our next anniversary party. Thank you for being such a special part of our day!!
