Best DJ/MC Ever!

We truly had the best time working with Sean Carlson for our wedding! He was extremely personable and genuinely did whatever he could to make our wedding the best that it could be including voiceovers for our first dance and processional, playing all of our must-play songs at the perfect times during the celebration, and offering many helpful tips like timeline creation, timing suggestions, and tips about other vendors. I cannot recommend him enough! Our day went so smoothly and Sean was a huge part of making that happen. If you have an event coming up and need a DJ or MC, hire Sean!!

Amazing in all regards

Sean was amazing through the entire process leading up to and through our wedding day. He helped us, guided us and offered advice where we needed help. He made the entire day super seamless. Past the songs we specifically requested the songs he picked were great and kept the dance floor hopping until the end of the night. Can’t recommend him enough. He’s very professional and working with him and his company was a pleasure.

Sean Carlson is the best!

If you are on the hunt for a DJ, look no further. Sean Carlson was worth every penny. I had never heard of a DJ/MC being so involved in not only the wedding, but the planning process too. Sean met with me numerous times prior to the wedding to ensure the planning process was going smoothly and to ensure all expectations I had of him were met. His online process of picking songs and filling out forms is so easy and efficient and also lots of fun to do as a couple! All I can say is he blew our expectations away. We received compliments over and over again that we had such an incredible dance floor and the music selection was incredible (all thanks to Sean!) Sean was the most incredible MC, making the crowd laugh and entertain them throughout the night! He had awesome ideas to make our wedding day unique and we couldn’t of asked for a better vendor as our DJ/MC!

Sean was an awesome DJ!

We had Sean dj for our wedding, and it could not have been a better experience!! He did a lot of personal touches and played great music to keep everyone dancing! I loved that he offers things like sharing your love story, personal grand entrances for our wedding party, and let us put in any special things we wanted (my moms birthday was the week of my wedding, and he was awesome with her birthday shoutout/ song!). He was great!
