Absolutely amazing

Mike and Lisa were so great to work with! Very professional, accommodating, great to work with through a Pandemic and just genuine people. I knew Mike was going to be the highlight of my reception, but he blew me away how awesome he did! The dance floor was packed all night, he never played a bad song, the lights and fog machine was the cherry on top! I have had multiple guest from my wedding say that was the best wedding they have ever been to and other people that weren't even at my wedding say they heard the DJ was awesome! It was all thanks to Mike and Lisa. The DJ is so important at a wedding. They make sure the night goes smoothly and they are the ones that make people stick around and dance. Mike did that and more! Brides&Grooms don't waste you time with other DJs, call DJpowerplay and I guarantee you will not be disappointed! Honestly, if Mike charged us $3,000 to DJ, we would of paid that. DJpowerplay is hands down the BEST DJ and I know many other people would say the same thing. Thank you Mike and Lisa for making my wedding one everyone will remember!!

Profesional

John was easy to work with and his website was great. He did a wonderful job keeping our wedding reception going. His assistant John, filled in on the piano when a thunderstorm knocked out power during our cocktail hour.

Mike is awesome!

I cannot say enough about how amazing Mike was as our DJ. From beginning to end he was there every step of the way making sure our wedding was everything we could ever hope for. During planning he was quick to respond to emails and was able to make sure we had everything taken care of, willing to offer suggestions for timeline and ways to get guests involved early on the dance floor. His website is SUPER user friendly and makes planning songs for reception and ceremony very easy! During the reception he was not only playing a perfect mix of songs for cocktail hour and dinner service, but as we were waiting for salads to be served he was making runs to and from the bar for the head table!! He went above and beyond and we are so happy we hired him!! And of course he kept our dance floor full of happy guests all night long!!

DJ Mike is Fantastic!

DJ Mike was fantastic. He is incredibly organized, responsive, and does a great job throwing a party. When I first reached out to him he was quick to set up a phone call and was always available within 24 hours of any request or question I had. A couple of weeks before the wedding he met with us in person at a restaurant to talk through the day’s timeline and what we wanted the day to look like. He was easy to connect with and it made me feel so relaxed knowing he’d get everything taken care of. He also helped us with ceremony support; the only hiccup we had was a slight miscommunication in what he had to support our guitar players, but it quickly got ironed out. He was also flexible with doing an indoor versus outdoor dance, and made a game-day decision with us based on the radar. I would highly recommend DJ Mike to anyone, it is well worth the money!

Not an empty dance floor all night

Mike is amazing. He made the whole process so easy and was go with the flow. I didn’t have to worry about anything. We had a couple meetings before and he is so easy to talk to! He double checked with everyone with how to say their names and lined them up for the bridal party entrance. He put an awesome flare on the bouquet toss. Our dance floor was full all night. I would recommend him to anyone. Amazing DJ and an amazing person as well!

Nothing but the best

Mike and his team were exceptional. They worked through making our 2020 pandemic wedding work. He worked through our requests quickly and diligently and managed to keep the whole venue alive and dancing until close. I would recommend Mike time and time again. He knows the business and he brings talent, hard work and SO MUCH fun to the table.

Best Playlist around

By far the best music I could have asked for. The perfect mix of nostalgia and new music the right amount of slow songs. Overall I could not have been more impressed. The ceremony went perfectly and the best acoustic versions of the songs we wanted were played. Honestly this man made the event perfect.

Hire this company for your wedding!

My husband and I used DJ Powerplay for our wedding in August and we could not be happier. I was a total bridezilla the day of the wedding and wanted to change some things and Mike rolled with my crazy ideas. Not only rolled with them but implemented them at a high level. I am so glad I chose Mike to serve us over the other companies I was considering, Our dance floor was packed from start to finish and our guests were talking about the music selection all night! Seems like other weddings we have attended as guests, no one really dances but thankfully my wedding, that was not the case!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
