Amazing dj!

As someone who was very particular about my wedding music, Brandon was seriously the best DJ I’ve ever seen at a wedding. He creates a timeline prior and is extremely organized. He is as interactive as you want him to be (or not to be). He understood exactly what I wanted PERFECTLY. I seriously cannot recommend him enough.

Best DJ Ever!

We had our destination wedding in Clearwater Beach at Shephard's Beach resort. When we booked with Shephard's we were told they have a great resident DJ at their club that also does weddings, and that he was a great DJ. I right away went to the wedding wire and checked his reviews and they were all 5-star. Using DJ Brandon was definitely a must. He was so awesome to work with, we did a zoom call to introduce ourselves to one another and we got such a great vibe from him, we knew he was going to make our wedding music fun for all. He was extremely responsive when we emailed him and highly organized with time lines and laying out when music needed to be played, suggested music and suggesting "extras" like the floor sparklers set on each side of the stairway when we got announced at the reception. My husband and I were hesitant to do the sparklers, but we decided to and best decision! They made for some great pictures. Another thing Brandon did was do a video loop of pictures we provided him to be shown on the big screen behind the DJ booth and all the TV's in the Wave room. We were able to choose songs and artists we wanted played at the ceremony and reception. DJ Brandon is very outgoing and had the guests dancing the night away! I have been to many weddings and I feel he is one of the best DJ's I have encountered. He does not only DJ at Shephard's either. Highly suggest using DJ Brandon for your special parties or weddings!

Brandon Created a Fantastic Vibe at our Wedding!

We hired Brandon as our DJ for our Wedding at Shepherd's Beach because he's the host DJ there and I am SO GLAD we did. He did a fantastic job at creating a fun atmosphere and the vibe was exactly what we were looking for. He spent an hour talking us through the whole event ahead of time and making sure we were all aligned and he helped us add some fun elements to our day. We weren't doing the traditional bouquet toss or garter so Brandon recommended we add in the Shoe game. It was a blast and our guests loved it. Also we got to add on Pyro to our DJ package and it made for a beautiful photo. He really helps you create the day that you want and I would absolutely recommend him.

So much fun!

Our wedding was March 5th and Brandon was such a fun DJ to have! Not only did he keep the wedding going but everyone kept telling me after the wedding was over how amazing of a DJ he was. The music was perfect and he listened to what we wanted during our music consultation. He also dealt with my huge wedding party's chaos and trying to keep everyone organized for reception introductions. If we need a DJ for any future events we will definitely be choosing Brandon again! Thank you Brandon for creating such a memorable night of dancing and celebrating!
