Last Minute Miracles

Jim was wonderful to work with and came in last minute to our vendor group, but made miracles happen quickly! The lighting was exactly what we needed to light our venue without it being over done. Thank you!

Jim DJed at our recent outdoor wedding in Dallas, and we can't sing his praise highly enough. We knew fairly well what we wanted -- someone who could keep the dance floor busy throughout the night, coordinate with musicians who also performed during the wedding, and subtly move the schedule along. Jim did all those things, and much more. He was the consummate professional throughout the whole process: Everything from playlist development to payments was done through a simple online interface; and Jim was always available to discuss timelines, music selections, or special equipment requests. But he really outdid himself on the day of the wedding: Jim coordinated audio during our ceremony, provided sound to other musicians, and moved the entire sound operation indoors during a period of intermittent rain. Within 30 minutes, we went from outdoor live music to indoor speeches to a packed outdoor dance floor. Days later he mentioned that the logistics had been among the most challenging he'd encountered in 15 years. Of course we were blissfully unaware: Jim simply talked to the event planner, decided what needed to be done, and got it done. Hire him.

Jim was amazing! The lighting was perfect, we absolutely loved our go-bo, very crisp and fit our wedding theme perfectly. We had him DJ ceremony, cocktail hour and an hour + of our reception, then a band took over, but he played the perfect mix of music and everyone had so much fun! The best part was his new Photo Booth .. that was a HIT! It was super sleek/small and didn't take up much space but as soon as our guests knew we had that they LOVED it! Thank you for everything you did to make our event look stunning and helping our guests have a blast!

We have nothing but great things to say about Jim and Discovery DJ. He was always quick to get back to us about any questions we had and we really appreciated how organized he was. The day of the wedding he did such a great job and he allowed us to completely enjoy our day. Our guests had a great time which was really important to us.

Jim was our first choice pick for our wedding DJ. He is always the most welcoming, energetic, thoughtful, and organized person. I had just a few requests, and Jim took the time to get to know my husband and I to make sure the evening fit our personalities perfectly. He accepted my requests and then offered suggestions when I wasn’t sure what song to pick or timeline to follow. My dad had a special request for a very unique father/daughter dance, which Jim gladly let him privately discuss with him to make it simply perfect, and that’s exactly how the entire night was.. PERFECT! Many brides and grooms don’t understand how important keeping on a timeline is to help the night run smoothly, but Jim not only understands this, he kindly alerted us when the next task (first dance, cake cutting, speeches, etc) was up. This made the night run extremely smoothly while not feeling rushed, yet keeping guests entertained. I would recommend Jim to anyone and everyone. Thanks for making our Wedding night the absolute best!

Jim was the best! I put off booking any kind of entertainment until the last min and Jim at Discovery saved the day! He was super responsive, flexible, and tons of fun. He helped keep us informed and on track with our event timelines. I am so happy we were referred for his DJ services - I had many compliments about the music all night long. The pre-planning process is easy and fun - I would highly recommend the service!

Jim recently provided DJ services and lighting services for my daughter's wedding held at Union Station in Dallas. Jim was kind, professional and worked diligently with my daughter and her fiance' to assure that each musical selection was perfect for the mood and atmosphere they desired for their reception. Without hesitation, I recommend Jim and Discovery DJ and Lighting for anyone wanting superb and professional DJ and lighting services.

A friend had used Discovery DJ & Lighting for their wedding lighting and I thought it looked really nice. So I contacted them to handle the lighting for my wedding and it turned out just as good for mine!

I met Jim at the beginning of 2010, and I can't say enough good things about him. In fact, we quickly became great friends and decided to go into business together. We jointly own a lighting company and frequently work together on weddings. I would not hesitate to recommend Discovery DJs to handle the music and lighting for your ceremony and reception. Jim is very easy to work with and the quality of his service is top-notch. He will truly help make your wedding classy, fun, and memorable.
