DJae Melee is the Best

I hired DJae Melee for my wedding and could not have been happier with the decision. DJae Melee is professional and responsive. The planning forms and site he sets you up with are so helpful. I was uncertain with regard to song selections for certain portions of the event and trusted his expertise in assisting with song selections. He did an amazing job. My guests had a blast. I highly recommend DJae Melee!

Simply the best

As a single girl my friends and I would dance the night away at the venues where Jason was DJing so when it was my turn to get married, Jae was my only choice. We had gone to school together but it wasn't just about supporting a fellow alumni, Jae is simply the best.
We sent in our music list through his site for couples and I didn't worry about the music once. I was confident Jason would handle the segues and keep people on the dance floor. We wanted to do a family dance but the kids would waiver by the minute whether they wanted to do it or not. Jason was ready for whatever the kids would throw us in the moment. The catering schedule went way off course from what they originally gave us so the important dances were delayed significantly. Jason handled that with ease keeping the dinner music going until dinner was finally wrapped up. Everyone could have danced all night. Some of our family members broke out some surprising moves! Since the wedding, so many people told us how awesome Jason was and how much they loved the music from our friends to my grandmother. If you want the party end of your wedding to be the very best, you have to book DJae Melee.

BOOK HIM if you want a *party* and a beautiful atmosphere.

I cannot say enough about DJae Melee. Jason was incredibly easy to work with, flexible, and had a flawless execution of our requests. He also moved with us to our new date with kindness and understanding after postponing. We had booked him a full year and a half earlier the first time around, and he was still gracious and made it happen. I HIGHLY recommend him! Jason had our entire group on the dance floor all night, and he filled the gaps in when I dropped the ball on giving enough music choices too late in the planning process - literally the day before our wedding, and he was ON IT. Our guests raved about the wedding - he made it fun and beautiful between the music and the lighting. Jason was definitely our top stand out vendor among an already great team that came together to make everything happen. He even dealt with us being annoying and - sorry - drunk chanting for just one more song at the end of the night by giving the people what they asked for. It was a blast. BOOK HIM if you want a *party* and a beautiful atmosphere.
