Josh is a must hire!

Josh was so organized and friendly from the very beginning. He really cares about what you want for your ceremony and reception. He has an amazing process to help you pick music, vibes, timing, etc. I’m so glad we had the chance to work with him. He was also so flexible when we had a last minute venue change and was so reassuring that everything would turn out perfectly. He had everything we needed from start to finish. He truly went above and beyond! We especially love that he took so many photos for us (without us asking him to) and shared them all the day after our wedding! He’s so kind and great at what he does.

A Perfect Experience

We had an excellent experience working with Josh. In the lead up to the wedding, he was responsive, gave great advice, and was really invested in creating the wedding that we wanted. Josh knows what he's doing when it comes to weddings, so we gave him our timeline, and he kept things moving from one part of our wedding to the next. Even without a wedding planner or coordinator, we were able to relax and enjoy ourselves knowing that Josh was guiding our guests from ceremony to cocktail hour, to toasts, dinner, dancing, cake, and on to more dancing! He was flexible and able to make changes in the moment, and we and our guests had so much fun! It was truly a wonderful night, and we couldn't be happier with our choice to work with Josh.

Can't recommend enough

Going into the process for the first time (obviously) we had a hard time assessing DJ's for our wedding. You can get a general sense from reviews of whether someone has done a good job and is experienced, but I don't think you can get the full picture of Josh's abilities from those.
He sets up your personal event website which allows you to easily plan your event out, from what songs you want to walk down to the aisle to, to what songs you want at cocktail hour vs. dancing. He lets you give guidance on when to start and stop each of the songs at the key events, but also gives recommendations on when to do so, and he generally has the best plan.

He also honored our request to wear a tuxedo for our Old Hollywood glam theme, and had the time to take some phone photos at key moments even while he kept the music rolling! He was extremely organized and kept track of the schedule and made sure to track us down for the few times we weren't on the dance floor to make sure we were ready to proceed to the next scheduled event (like a Greek dance!).
In summary we felt he did a terrific job balancing our wishes and vision with his suggestions from his vast professional experience. In his words, "A lot of DJ's can play a great set, but this is your day and your wedding".
