About

On WeddingWire since 2022

I am a Tampa Bay-area DJ and producer named Collin. Music has always been a huge part of my life and I live for the moments of pure energy that getting a whole room of people dancing together brings.

Since nine years old, I have played the piano pretty consistently and have practiced other musical disciplines since. Throughout my musical career, I picked up singing and producing as I explored this passion more. I started DJing as a fill-in on JetStream Radio (and now host a weekly show on Sky Blue Radio). Once I had dipped my feet in, I was off. Since then, I have DJ'd various private events and weddings.

Booking me means you get a DJ with:

  • 📅 15+ years of musical experience
  • 💃 Deep, genuine passion for entertaining
  • 💼 Significant business experience (read: dealing with me won't be a nightmare)
  • 💰 Competitive and flexible pricing
  • 💡 Full sound and lighting equipment
  • 🚗 Ability to travel (I can bring the party to you)
  • 👍 Consistent positive reviews

Best experience ever!

We had the BEST experience with Collin and his team.
Catching Lightning was one of the only vendors that we signed and paid deposits for immediately after our inquiry and initial conversation. This was all because how thorough he was and how comfortable that made us feel. Collin contacted us very quickly and gave us a call to go over all details of his services and event details!
With the months leading up to the wedding him and his team are always very quick to respond to any questions we may have!

Unfortunately, due to Hurricane Milton, we had to cancel our wedding. Collin was responsive the whole time and was so accommodating when we changed our wedding plans to the East Coast in less than a week!!
They were willing to travel just to make our day come true!

His description of his equipment does not do them justice!! The set up, lighting, and sound system was amazing and one of the best we have seen through all the weddings we have been to.

Lastly, he loves music and his skill shows it! While working with our selected songs, he also had fun the music and was a hit with everyone!

All in all, we could not have made a better choice and truly truly recommend Collin and his team for anyone lookin for DJ services!

The best wedding DJ!

Collin was amazing! hyping everyone up, great music, lively speaking between songs and getting people dancing and participating in the games. Even during dance floor lulls he was creating the vibe on the dance floor! The best DJ at a wedding I’ve seen - thank you for making my sister’s wedding so special!
