We LOVE Tim! Book him now!

We hired Tim as our wedding DJ and truly couldn’t have asked for anything better! From the very beginning, he was the most responsive vendor we worked with. He checked in regularly before the big day, communicated clearly, and made the whole process feel so easy. Oh, and he is seriously the most friendly human!
He worked seamlessly with our day-of coordinator, and when the wedding day arrived, everything was smooth sailing. You can tell he has this down to a science; in the best way possible!! The music, the transitions, the energy… all flawless.
We had so many guests come up to us saying it was the best DJ/music they’ve ever experienced at a wedding. That says everything! And I’m so happy we went with the uplighting—seriously, it made all the difference for the vibe and tied the whole night together.
If you’re considering Tim, do yourself a favor and book him. He made our night unforgettable!

Jameson Wedding DJ Review

We heard of this company through a friend and are so glad we used them! JD was nothing less than amazing! He was very professional and was great with keeping the dance floor crowded the entire night. I will be telling all of my friends that are getting married about this company!

Made our wedding that much more fun!

From the beginning was very receptive to any changes or questions that we had pre-wedding. As we continued up to the wedding, he reached out to verify how things were going and get final confirmations. During the ceremony kept everything flowing smoothly, but also kept the energy up and going. Many of our guests were saying how much fun they had.

Incredible Experience with Music In Motion

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Music in Motion. They were incredibly responsive and helpful before my event. The DJ, Rick, even called me specifically to make sure he knew the type of music and vibes we were going for. They are wonderful people, and Rick made my mom’s surprise 60th birthday party an absolute blast. I would highly recommend using Music in Motion for your event!!

Music in Motion Excellence!

From the first communication with Tim Hicks it was clear that this was a very organized company. Communication was clear and very organized. Tim responded promptly to any questions and would reach out occasionally to say he was there if we had any questions. Damian was our event DJ and he was excellent. Having a smaller wedding of 84 he engaged the group immediately and had the party rolling. Thanks Damian and Tim!
