My husband and I hired DJ Ravi Jackson and his team for our fusion Hindu/American wedding in Philadelphia this summer. From the moment we began communicating with him months in advance, we were incredibly impressed with DJ Ravi's professionalism and flexibility. Because were were planning this Philly-based wedding from Washington, DC, we relied on e-mail and phone communication with DJ Ravi; he was exceedingly available at all hours of the day to speak and e-mail with us. As a bride who planned a 200+ person wedding on my own (ie. no wedding coordinator), DJ Ravi was by far the most responsive and polished vendor I worked with during the wedding planning process.
On the day of the wedding, he and his team seamlessly incorporated energy and fun to the baraat, ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. We also hired a dhol (Indian drummer) player through DJ Ravi, and it is safe to say that he brought his "A" game to the wedding! We had several song suggestions, "must haves," and "not haves" that we gave DJ Ravi in advance, and he not only followed our instructions, but definitely was able to get a feel for what kind of music and vibe we wanted to have and was able to create an extraordinary soundtrack for the whole day!
It's worth mentioning that half of our guests were Indian and half were not, and DJ Ravi did an excellent job of mixing up the songs on the dance floor (some bhangra & Bollywood, some top 40 hits, some oldies) so that everyone felt included with songs they loved and recognized. The energy that he provided was priceless; we will never forget what an amazingly fun night we had dancing to the tunes of DJ Ravi! It's also worth noting that we had many guests compliment us on DJ Ravi and tell us that our wedding was the absolute best wedding they had ever attended, in large part because of the incredible music and dancing all night!
We highly recommend DJ Ravi and his team for your wedding or whatever event you may be planning!
