Fantastic experience

We contracted for Rene Prescott to provide d.j. services for our son's wedding. It was a phenomenal choice. Rene provided so much more than d.j. services. She followed up and reminded us of timeliness, knew the facility, provided necessary details about lighting, gave us the necessary time to make decisions, asked the appropriate questions, and gave all involved the freedom to make requests. So our experience before the event was ideal. Then she surpassed all expectations at the event. She arrived in plenty of time to complete her set up and help the caterer s with necessary details about timing of the cake, etc. She even held coats for those of us who were running outside for quick pictures in the challenging weather. Her music choices were exactly what we requested. But most impressive was her action as an additional wedding planner who helped us be conscious of all the small important details. The ceremony and reception exceeded all expectations. She is the best choice for your music wedding needs.
