Best Wedding DJ Ever!

We couldn’t have asked for a better DJ for our wedding! From start to finish, Mo was professional, fun, and absolutely nailed the vibe we wanted. The music selection was perfect — he read the crowd all night and kept everyone (of all ages!) on the dance floor. The transitions were seamless, the announcements were clear and upbeat, and the energy never dropped once.

Book Mo for your next special event!!

Mo was nothing short of amazing! He was professional, accommodating, and super easy to work with. We had several guests tells us that Mo was either the best or one of the best wedding dj’s they’ve heard. We were so incredibly pleased and couldn’t have had the best day without him. We appreciated everything he did for us from the ceremony music, to dinner music, to married couple first dance songs, to our late night party. I wholeheartedly recommend Mo for any special event!!

Illmatic🙌🏾

We hired D.J Mo for our wedding. He was absolutely phenomenal!! From start to finish, he understood our music preferences and kept the energy up all night. The song transition’s were smooth and music selection catered to every age group on the dance floor.

Mo was incredibly professional and easy to work with. Communication before the event was thorough, and he accommodated all of our request, making the planning process stress free.

If you’re looking for a D.J who will keep the party going and create memories, we couldn’t recommend D.J Mo more. Our friends and family are still raving about the music. It was truly a night to remember.

Absolutely Amazing!

DJ Illmatic was amazing, he curated an epic wedding playlist based on a brief conversations between my crazy schedule. He also had awesome recommendations that engaged our guests like the money dance, the follow the leader line, and more...

I would give him a 10 out of 10 if I could! Nothing but good vibes and amazing energy! It also helped that our MC Adri V and Illmatic knew each other very well!

McNeal Tarrant Wedding October 2022

First, Mo is just a great person, but also, he is a fantastic DJ! He provided more than "just music" for our special day. Mo is a full service DJ, meaning he assists with music selection, but also assures that your event "flows" from beginning to end. He met with us by phone but also communicated via email and provided timely responses and suggestions. We received compliments regarding his service as some guests were surprised with how much our DJ interacted with the guests, we even played a cute newlywed shoe game. We look forward to working with Mo again!

Ando Wedding 5-15-21

Mo is an amazing DJ! He met with us twice before our wedding to make sure the music and flow of the night was exactly how we wanted it. Mo gave us some great wedding advice and tips at our meetings. He had everyone dancing/singing on the dance floor, outside on the terrace, and at their seats. He played all of the best current songs as well as old favorites. We have had many guests tell us how great our DJ was and that they want to use him for their future events. Thank you so much Mo!!

Awesome DJ & Host!!!

Mo was awesome! He was extremely organized. He met with us twice to go over the details of the evening, the flow of the event as well as the music. He made great suggestions and became not just our DJ but also our MC. During the event he was extremely in-tune to our timing and energy level. He added announcements, games and music to keep the party going. We had chosen a very robust playlist but left him the artistic freedom to play to the room, and boy did he! Our guests had a wonderful night and our wedding is an event people are still talking about 6 months later. Thank you Mo!!
