Our event was a Celebration of Life for a very well loved friend. Mike handled the sound and all the AV, which included playing two videos for the assembled group. From the initial contact through the end of the event, Mike was on top of everything we asked, and exceeded our expectations. Through the planning process it was obvious he has done events like ours many, many times, and his creative suggestions and overall professional delivery on the day of the event surpassed my expectations. Though it wasn't a wedding, I could easily see how Mike would handle a wedding... actually any gathering at all... quite adeptly. On a scale of 1 to 10 with 10 being "strongly recommend" I would easily call it a "10" performance, partly because it all went to plan, partly because Mike's presence made a difference, and mostly because our guests were able to celebrate the memory of the person we lost together - an experience we'll never forget.

My wife and I are so happy we hired Mike for our wedding at the Branford House! He brought the perfect mix of professionalism and fun - an absolute pleasure to work with across both wedding planning and the wedding day itself.

We spoke to other DJs early on while planning our wedding and found they tried often to sell us on their off-the-shelf services without really bothering to first understand who we were and what we wanted. Mike is just the opposite. He started by making a personal connection, and then helped us plan our wedding day from there.

From the ceremony to the speeches, dinner music to dance music, Mike ran everything flawlessly. As an emcee, he had just the right touch to give our guests direction and make things fun without being overbearing or corny (like some DJs we’ve seen at other weddings).

Mike listened to exactly what we wanted, making sure to hit all our "must-plays,” completely respecting our "do-not-play" list. On the day, he read the room perfectly. The audio cues, music, and even the lighting were perfect. He knew exactly how to keep the energy high once the reception started, responding to what people were dancing with, taking new requests, and mixing seamlessly from song to song like a true DJ. Our dance floor was absolutely packed all night long, and the lighting effects added that extra-oomph to make for party atmosphere that wowed our guests.

We also decided to book the additional uplighting and photo booth packages Mike offers, which we definitely would recommend if they fit your venue - for the Branford House, they were perfect to make the space even more special.

If you to work with a stress-free experience and an epic dance floor, definitely book Mike!

Mike was amazing to work with. He made our wedding day memorable. Mike had excellent recommendations. He made sure we were comfortable throughout the process. Mike was very approachable and the utmost professional. He did an excellent job as the emcee. He came up with the great idea to call family members up for special dances while we were greeting tables. Mike made sure to give us options so we could make decisions throughout the process. Mike did an amazing job with the music; we were on the dance floor all night! The uplighting really added a special element to our reception at The Society Room of Hartford. The dance party lights were so much fun!

We cannot say enough amazing things about Mike and Audio Media Solutions! From our very first conversation, Mike was incredibly thoughtful, organized, and detail-oriented. He walked us through every part of the experience, from ceremony music to reception flow to the lighting design, and made us feel completely confident every step of the way.

The light show was hands-down one of our favorite parts of the night and truly elevated the entire atmosphere. Mike kept the energy exactly where it needed to be all evening long, and everything flowed perfectly.

We also booked the photobooth through his company, which was run by his son, and it was a huge hit with our guests! Everyone loved being able to take home a fun keepsake, and we absolutely loved getting access to all of the photos afterward. It’s such a special memory to have. Truly a 10/10 experience, we would recommend Mike to anyone!

Mike and his team we absolutely perfect as our sound and lighting engineers! He’s genuinely a cool, down-to-earth person and very easy to work with. From the start, he was responsive and helpful in guiding us through what we actually needed to prepare, which made the planning process feel manageable. He helped to ease our stress by sharing his multiple backup to the backup options. He makes sure he is prepared to ensure that nothing could come between us and a solid musical experience.

He gave thoughtful insight into timing and flow that really helped keep the energy up throughout the night, we had received a variety of musical requests in our wedding replies (as asked) and he was able to blend them all seamlessly into the evening so everyone could contribute to the magic of the night. He handled both the ceremony and reception seamlessly, and the lighting setup was a really nice touch.

His pricing was clear, communication was consistent, and he was accommodating whenever we had questions or needed clarification on next steps. Overall, he was professional, fun, and reliable. We’d definitely recommend him.

Mike did an amazing job on our wedding day. Mike was professional, knowledgeable, and supportive throughout the night. Mike did a great job mixing the playlist and keeping the party going. Once the dance floor opened up, it went on for the entire night! There wasn’t a dull moment!

I highly recommend using Mike and AMS for any event! I hope to be able to work with him again someday. Thanks again for making us feel special, Mike! - Michelle and Jon

My wife and I had a specific budget allocated for a DJ who could also provide lighting. DJ Mike came through big time! A true professional in every way, he also provided music and lighting suggestions when asked. He is flexible on pricing but more importantly Mike is an absolute pleasure to deal with in every way! He created exactly the mood and vibe we had hoped for. The DJ you pick plays an integral role in your wedding/reception. Not a place you want to “go cheap.”.

Mike was fantastic! He kept the energy high all night, read the crowd perfectly, and made sure the dance floor stayed full. He was organized, easy to work with, and communicated clearly, helping to make smooth transitions between events throughout the evening.

The live light show was incredible! DJ Melanie was accommodating and helpful. Most importantly she was kind and also took guest request requests. Thank you.

Mike was amazing! Our priority for our wedding was the party, and Mike Delivered. He picked up on the music style we wanted on our first phone call. In the last few weeks we add a few of changes to the reception and speeches (even one day of) and Mike was able to roll with it seamlessly.

We cannot recommend Mike enough!
