The best of the best!!

From our very first meeting, we knew we were in great hands with Matt Towey from The Music Man DJ Service as our DJ. He was attentive to detail, accommodated special requests, and even practiced difficult name pronunciations until they were perfect, all while staying professional and friendly.

On our wedding day, he handled a tricky venue setup across multiple rooms with ease and made sure everything sounded great. But the highlight was the dance floor. We asked Matt to recreate the feel of a high school Homecoming dance (2006–2012 vibes), and he absolutely nailed it. Guests kept commenting on how fun and nostalgic the music was, the energy was amazing, and the dance floor stayed packed! We wish we could have kept the party going longer. We can’t recommend Matt and The Music Man DJ Service enough!

Best dj ever!

My husband and I worked with Jason for our wedding based on our coordinator’s recommendation, and it was one of the best decisions we made for the whole event!

Jason was incredible through the planning process — easygoing, kind, reassuring, and a great listener. He offered suggestions without ever pushing, and he responded quickly whenever we reached out. We appreciated the “get to know you” conversation he set up and found the detailed run-through call super helpful.

For the wedding, he arrived right on time, set up seamlessly, and emceed our day beautifully. It almost felt like we knew him personally because of how warm he was.

Most importantly — Jason totally understood our music vibe and got our entire crowd dancing. Mind you, the sun was still out for most of our reception, and he got everyone into the party mood right away.

We received so many compliments on our DJ and music, and we were SO glad we chose Jason! He truly took our wedding from good to great. If you’re on the fence…just book him!

Barbra was fabulous!!

Barbra was lovely to work with! Our families are not dancers but she had almost everyone on the dance floor. The music for our ceremony, announcement, and first dance were perfectly cued and set up. She was great on the mic when needed but kept the focus on our guests and the music. Barbra showed us exactly what she was thinking for cocktail hour and pre-ceremony in advance, and welcomed suggestions to modify her playlists to make sure we loved the music. Everything went smoothly, with no technical difficulties - the evening was perfect!

Excellent, Great Communication, and Professional

Our DJ (Jeff Foran) was absolutely amazing! He totally nailed the vibe of the night and kept everyone on the dance floor all evening. Communication before and during the wedding was awesome, He was super easy to work with and really professional. Couldn’t have asked for better!

DJ Ortiz is the best!!

DJ Ortiz from the Music Man DJ service absolutely ROCKED at our wedding. The process was so easy. Spoke with him a few times prior to the wedding, send him some sample playlists and our preferences and he delivered!! This man was running around from one DJ booth to the other IN THE POURING RAIN for hours making sure the guest had an amazing time and keeping the vibes up. Would recommend to anyone looking for a specialized music experience.

DJ Shawn did a fantastic job at our wedding!

The Music Man DJ Service was the perfect choice for our wedding in the Lakes region in New Hampshire. DJ Shawn C. was very responsive prior to the wedding and nailed the song selection! As our wedding was outdoors and more rustic and bohemian, DJ Shawn really read the room and played hits that synced with the vibe and got everyone to the dance area. He was very receptive to our day of asks for tunes to play which was so great. Additionally, his setup of multiple microphones allowed the ceremony and all the speeches to go off without a hitch. Would 10/10 recommend their services for your special day!

Highly recommend; Rob is awesome!

Really easy company to work with from start to finish with fair prices. We got Rob Burnell as our DJ and he blew it out of the park. He kept the dance floor packed all night, was super flexible at the last minute on things, and was just a super nice and easygoing guy to work with. He made the whole event less stressful. Highly recommend!

Great dance floor!

Barbra and Denise from "The Music Man" were incredible DJs for our wedding. We worked primarily with Barbra; we received so many compliments on her work throughout our wedding day, from the cocktail hour music, to the ease with which she introduced our family/friends for toasts, and handled impromptu song requests. She also did a great job of supplementing our desired dance floor playlist with similar hits, and the end result was a dance floor that didn't stop! (We think people were sad to go home!). Barbra was tremendously thoughtful and communicative during the planning process as well. Couldn't recommend her more for your wedding!

A Sweet Start A Sweet Start Wedding Officiants

I can wholeheartedly endorse the Music Man DJ Service! I've worked with a few of Mitch's DJ's and they've all been professional, top quality and fun (especially Lori!). Considering that a DJ can set the vibe of your wedding reception, it's a good idea to search for just the right one. Mitch and his crew are probably the most established DJ service in all of Maine. They've been doing this a long time and know just how to make your day special. Look no further than the Music Man DJ Service!
