We had to add the ceremony kind of last minute, and it went from being outdoors to indoors and Tom was extremely flexible with what we were needing! He was awesome the entire day, and we received so many compliments from our guests on the music selection and quality! Highly recommend these guys!

Thomas was so kind and patient. He made sure we had everything we needed and gave us suggestions we didn't even think about. Justin was very professional and did an amazing job DJing. The guests loved the music and the lighting. I knew I didn't have anything to worry about, these gentlemen took care of everything. They even worked along side with my photographer to make sure everything was covered!

If you’re planning an event where audio, music, lights, and a hard working crew of people are at your service then I would highly recommend Tom and his people working at Music Connection. My fiancé and I met w/ him to plan our wedding reception and found him to have the knowledge and creativity to put together what was to be a wonderful evening for us. You only have one shot at planning your event for yourselves and your guests so working with someone who was knowledgeable and a true professional was something we found to be a God-sent. Tom was able to make suggestions and fill in the blanks for us concerning things we weren’t sure about. He took a lot of care in getting our up-lighting, the dry ice fog effects, outside floods and our monogram set up correctly and stayed in good communication with us concerning these aspects. We put our wedding together in a relatively short amount of time and despite our time crunch, Tom handled things well. I felt that the price he charged was fair given what we received. If anything we owed our DJ, Paul, an apology. Despite not being more prepared on our big night which was on us, he had the poise and experience to bring things together and our evening turned out well. Our songs were played along with a few chosen by the DJ which was fine. As important, some ‘wedding’ songs we specifically asked not be played, were never heard. The large columns you see lit up with various types of lighting on the Music Connection facebook sight was Tom’s creation for us. They made for some excellent photos and added discrete lighting for our helicopter pilot to be able to find our venue and land safely. Thanks to the Music Connection for patience shown us in what was a lot in a short amount of time. I would highly recommend Tom and his services for whatever your needs.

We were lost in our planning and kind of last minute picking our music. Tom was very helpful in giving us ideas and song selections. I highly recommend them!
