Best decision of the wedding

Michael was the best decision we could have made for the wedding! His communication was incredible. He helped us think through things that we hadn't even considered and really made the schedule as smooth as could be. He was able to accomodate for our ceremony that did not have a power source. We even had our generator go out during the reception and he didn't hesitate to keep the vibe going. He started up his battery powered speakers and many guests didn't even realize the power was out. Michael was on board with our creative song choices and made them crowd pleasers. Majority of our guests complimented the DJ choice because we had the best dance floor ever. Thank you Michael for everything!!!!!

Michael is amazing!

Michael was incredible for our wedding! He brought all his own equipment and set up completely by himself—smoothly, efficiently, and without ever getting in the way. He hosted the night with fantastic energy, ran the timeline without a hitch, and flawlessly worked our personal mixes into the set. The dance floor was packed all night, and received many compliments throughout the night! Highly recommend!

Everything was perfect!

Dj Lancaster was great in so many ways! His communication was very consistent and professional. On the wedding day he went above and beyond to make sure our day was perfect. He took the liberty to organize dismissing tables and he worked with my photographer to rearrange the schedule of events to get the best sunset photos. He kept the dance floor very lively and I got so many compliments on him!

Truly a great DJ.

I have been to weddings in the past where the DJ does not play the requested songs or just doesn’t have a good flow for the audience. This is not the case for Michael. He did an amazing job assisting in the flow of the evening and managing the timing for music. Michael is a very professional DJ and his experience shows. He is worth every penny.

Michael Lancaster is an Awesome DJ!

Michael was the DJ for our 50th wedding anniversary party at the Vail Hyatt. He was responsive and enthusiastic in helping us plan our event and did an outstanding job integrating our song list into a wonderful night of entertainment for my wife and I and our many guests. We give Michael a solid score of 10 out of 10!

Best DJ ever!

Wow, I can't put into words how fantastic my wedding was. Just to put it in perspective my wedding was last night and I'm already writing a review. Michael was absolutely phenomenal and made our wedding everything we ever hoped for and more. He was so kind and flexible and literally made my dream come true. The live guitar was incredible and all of the music the entire night was absolutely amazing. Would go with Michael a million times over.

The best dj/guitarist!

Michael was absolutely awesome. He played live guitar during our ceremony (our intro was canon in d transitioning into concerning hobbits which was a dream!) and dj'd during our cocktail hour, dinner, and reception. All of it was amazing. He is extremely organized and a great communicator, often responding to my emails within a few minutes from months out from the ceremony to the day of with my last minute questions. He sent us a list to think about every detail far in advance so we had plenty of time to plan and played a great mix of our personal song requests and his own recommendations, which was great. Dance floor was full all night and everyone had a fantastic time. He really made the day/night so perfect. Highly recommend!
