Outstanding Wedding DJ.

Great timing with the callouts, great stage presence, and he did just a phenomenal job with our wedding. Managed to flawlessly work in several last minute changes for us without complaint.

Phenomenal dj

Melvin is AMAZING!! We hired him for our wedding and will definitely hire him for any other events we are hosting. He was able to get the crowd on the floor (which was utter shock to us because our crowd is not that type) he was able to keep it upbeat and lively the whole time! He also customized certain songs for us and they turned out PHENOMENAL!! Thank you Melvin!!!

Melvin is the best!!

DJ Melvin is the absolute best DJ service my husband and I could have asked for on our wedding day. He helped us solidify our timeline, kept us on our timeline day of, and was an overall incredible master of ceremonies. Melvin met with us multiple times before our wedding to look over timelines, song lists, and did a wonderful job of helping us determine what we wanted our wedding night to be like. He played every song we asked for, but also did a great job of keeping the party going. I would highly recommend DJ Melvin for any event! He is professional, thorough, and an all around amazing vendor to work with.

Energetic and fun DJ!

Can't recommend Melvin enough! He was awesome at our daughter's wedding. He played such great music, made sure everything ran smoothly with announcements, etc. He's full of energy and a positive/happy person to be around. What a fabulous experience we had!

If you don't hire this man to be your DJ, you are making a mistake.

I have been to a handful of weddings, and DJ Melvin is by far the best DJ/MC I have ever experienced. He has the experience and confidence to bring a crowd together! My wedding party and I absolutely loved him. He is worth every penny. He is professional, on time, prepared, confident, and knows what he is doing. If I have another big life event, I would hire him again for it!

Look no further…

Melvin was helpful and informative from the very beginning. He knows what he’s doing and it showed at our wedding. For our ceremony he listened and executed everything exactly how we asked/ needed. We had some live musicians that he was able to handle beautifully! At the reception he was so fun, played great music, and kept the party going! He was professional the whole time and we couldn’t be happier with our selection in DJ!

An amazing DJ!

Melvin was super friendly, he knew exactly what he was doing and was very easy to communicate with. He listened to my requests and what I wanted done and I was absolutely thrilled when we were doing the Cupid shuffle and he joined in!

He did an AMAZING job at my wedding in all aspects, all my guests loved him, I’m very thankful he was apart of it :)
