Ok, so I normally don’t write reviews, but for Ryan, this is a must. Ryan really blew me away on my wedding day with his DJ-ing and MC. Not only did Ryan help make my wedding super special and memorable, he also impressed my in-laws as well as a majority of my wedding guests. I received nonstop compliments about him and how much they loved my DJ. I was extremely impressed when there were already a large number of people dancing right after dinner before I even got to the dance floor.

If you want someone who is extremely organized and keep the party going, Ryan is definitely the person to go for and you will not be disappointed.

We hired Ryan to provide lighting and music for our wedding and were completely blown away by his service, flexibility and professionalism. We asked Ryan to help us create a warm setting for our dinner reception and he provided suggestions on where to place lights, what color to use and the amount of lighting we needed to get the feel we were looking for. He went to extremes to get the lighting color perfect and created a warm and beautiful ambiance for our dinner reception.

We only had to meet with Ryan once because he knew exactly what we wanted. He made sure to play all the music we requested and did a great job getting our guests to dance. We could not have been more pleased with Ryan and would definitely recommend him to any couple looking for a fun, professional and well experienced DJ.

Ryan did a superb job as DJ and was a major contributor to the success of our wedding as a very fun energetic party where pretty much everyone felt comfortable dancing wildly. He really knows what he's doing for both the preparation and during the event itself. For preparation, he gave some brilliant suggestions including having the bridal party dance in to their own chosen song clips ("entrance music"), and also for how to space the various components (dinner, speeches, dancing, toasts, slideshow). He was very responsive over email to various questions and song suggestions. He did present his ideas but was flexible in accomodating our ideas.
Then during the event itself he did an amazing job facilitating a very fun party without putting himself in the center of things. He made his announcements but otherwise just let the principals in the wedding and the guests take center stage. His music selection and sequencing worked extremely well for both the first part of dancing, which was for younger people and adults, and then for the wilder last section, which was for the younger people.
We had so many unprompted compliments on our DJ, and more on the party and dancing and music, that I felt like I had to recommend Ryan!

We didn't get to meet Ryan until the day of wedding. We always communicate via emails and phone. From his responsiveness and professional suggestions and advices, we were never in doubt.

We had a hard time picking out songs so we ended up just picked a few must-have and had Ryan fills the rest. He did great on adding songs that set the mood and our guests enjoyed them. Like many brides, I sent Ryan the song list and the activities during the reception the last very minute. But Ryan was able to accommodate and handled everything very smoothly.

We also rented the uplights from him. We weren't sure what color to use so we just left it up to him. It turns out the blue worked perfectly with the room along with our color theme. The uplights made quite a impact to the overall look of the reception and we're glad we went with it. The setup along with speakers, microphones, and projector was also hassle-less on us.

The service Mixter Li provided was all around exceptional and we highly recommend!

Hiring Ryan was one of the best decisions we have made for our wedding reception in April 2011. He replied to my initial inquiry within a few hours, easygoing, flexible, honest, reliable and just overall a nice guy to talk to and work with. During the wedding process, he always listened to our ideas, made helpful suggestions that allow us to achieve our overall vision for the reception e.g. coordination of the slideshows, photobooth (which turned out to be a really fun idea). Our wedding reception was at a restaurant that was divided into a bar area, main dining area and cake room and Ryan managed to wire all three rooms. It took him several hours. He even came to the venue the night before the wedding to make sure the set up was done in time. He played all the songs we requested, added in songs that were appropriate for the mood and setting, made sure the volume was comfortable for all guests, and had the music on cue for all the events. We requested more mellow mood in the beginning and more upbeat songs toward the end and his music arrangement accommodated the mood change quite well. When he made announcements for us, he was very professional and polite. He managed to get along with all other vendors and guests.

We also rented projector and screen from him. The screen was huge! and the projector was of high quality so the pictures in our slideshows came out true to color, sharp, and just beautiful to watch.

The whole day went incredibly smoothly, there was not a single technical difficulty. I can't believe we even considered an iPod wedding initially. It would have been a nightmare to set up all the equipments and the rental equipments would not have sounded anywhere as good as Ryan's high end speakers. The sound was warm and filled the entire restaurant.

My hubby and I recommend Ryan without any reservations. Although we didn't anticipate spending $$ on a DJ, Ryan was worth every cent. He provided much needed peace of mind on the day of our wedding. We knew we were in good hands : )

Ryan is personable and is an all around great DJ. We were referred to him by a friend of ours who got married recently.
My husband was impressed with his mixing skills and wanted to hire him right away.
We met for a consultation and to go over song lists. He was prompt and organized.

I don't think you can ask of anything more from a DJ, but he also went above and beyond by setting uplighting (additional cost) for us last minute.

I think you can search endlessly for DJ's, but I prefer to go with people who have been referred to me, so now Im referring him to you.

Mixter Li was fantastic! From step one, the site visit & planning, he was on point. He came with his team, knew all the right questions to ask the venue, and gave us his thoughts on lighting treatments, etc. We trusted him completely as we didn't know much about lighting and he totally came through. His set-up was efficient and focused and the space was lit gorgeously! Fun, appropriate for the space, dramatic, yet not over-the-top. He knew exactly what the space needed for that extra punch and his color choice, purple, worked perfectly! Even better than his lighting know-how are his DJ skills. Our guests were dancing up a storm the entire night. Mixter Li knows what gets people on their feet and keeps them there. He played all of the songs we requested and mixed it up a bit but kept within the genres that we'd requested. We had numerous guests tell us afterwards that they had never danced so much at a wedding before!

Hire Mixter Li and you won't be disappointed!

Having Mixter Li at our wedding was an excellent choice. Definitely one of the favorite vendors of the day.

Ryan is so natural on the mic. He was an amazing emcee for our reception. Thanks to him, things transitioned very smoothly. He was very accommodating and flexible. He let the program flow at a natural pace, all while keeping us on schedule. He kept the party going. Prior to the event, I had emailed Ryan several times with changes in the schedule. He was understanding and responsive every time. He went beyond his job description: he asked my sister/MOH to teach him my parents names in Cantonese before introducing them!! That was really sweet.

Not only is he an excellent DJ and emcee, Ryan also provided beautiful purple uplighting for our event!! The uplights transformed the room and we received many compliments on it even long after our wedding. He was timely in setting up and getting the room ready way before the reception started. He was helpful in our color choosing process. We decided on purple (his uplights come in many many colors). In my opinion, professional lighting REALLY makes a difference in the event. And Ryan made it happen.

Mixter Li is extremely professional and talented. I am very happy that he was part of our wedding!

I have to say, searching for a DJ is NOT easy. Granted I’ve been in SEVEN weddings, I wasn’t able to ask my friends for referrals b/c some were out of my budget and some had DJ’s that were ‘ok’. I wanted the best for what my money could buy…..after all, the scariest thought is to have an empty dance floor on your wedding day.

When the search began, I was excited. Come on, how often do you get married and are allowed to ‘interview’ people? I quickly found that this process was NOT fun! After a few weeks of searching and four interviews, I pretty much just gave up. A dear friend of mine said, “My cousin is a DJ, but I haven’t seen him in action. Maybe he will do it for you.” So I thought, doesn’t hurt to meet with him and I’m SOOOOOO glad I did.

OMG – DJ Mixter Li AKA Ryan, is THE BEST DJ EVER! Now, I’m not saying this b/c he’s my friend’s cousin, but seriously, he can make your crowd party like no other. He came on time to the wedding, dressed oh so appropriately, was very professional and knew exactly what music to play and WHEN to play it. I had requested a few 70’s/80’s tunes to start the dancing just to accommodate my older guests and it was such a hit, he played those tunes for a bit. When the older folks left, he eased into the Top 40’s hits and hip hop. There was never one moment when the dance floor was empty. He emcees the event and I have to mention this b/c some DJs do not, and his voice is actually very nice…he’s got that sexy man voice that you hear on some night time radio shows.

Oh and by the way, I’m not a music expert, but I just went to a wedding yesterday and supposedly this DJ they had was the ‘best ever’; he apparently DJ’s for some club. Anyhow, two things I noticed….his sound system was not happenin’ and his emceeing skills were not great. He had some slang terms when making announcements to the crowd; that’s all good if you’re entertaining a young crowd but when you have mostly older Asian people, you don’t say, ‘People, please get into your seats so we can introduce the bridal party. The faster you sit, the faster we can get the food serving.” These things are very important to take note. You don’t want your DJ to sound tacky you know? Another reason why Mixter Li was so great. He just sounds so much more professional than these other DJ’s I interviewed.

The next day at work, I had many telling me how great my wedding was….how they loved the food and even mentioned how great DJ Mixter Li was. I think I am going to book him for my unborn child’s first birthday. Haha!

Like I said, after being in seven weddings….there are only two things that will make a party a REAL PARTY……one…..never running out of alcohol (screw the food) and two, having a DJ that will keep your crowd on their toes.

I HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY (did I say ‘highly’ yet?) recommend you book DJ Mixter Li; you will not be disappointed. I promise.

We wanted a DJ for the wedding instead of a band and after some research Ryan was one of the vendors we knew we wanted booked and in contract right away for our wedding. Not only does he have great reviews, the guy is just fun, easy to talk to when describing the vibe you want for your wedding, really knows his stuff, also offers lighting and comparable prices, and is extremely professional.

My husband and I had so much fun at our wedding. It ended up raining the hour before and he had to move his equipment to a different location at the very last minute. He was very flexible with the last minute change of plans and worked so fast moving everything to the new spot. During the reception people came up to Ryan all night asking for his card and giving kudos to him. Ryan also emceed our wedding for us perfectly, hes a natural on a mic! The night was seamless, effortless and we cant thank him enough for making our day even more memorable for us =D Book him as soon as you can, and if he has the date open you will not be disappointed!
