My family always emphasized how your DJ can make or break your wedding. Well Scott definitely made it! From the first moment we met him at a bridal expo he was confident and sure that we would be DJing our wedding. We met a few times beforehand and he was so outgoing and easy to work with! The wedding day was perfect. The events (games, garter, bouquet, etc) were so fun and engaging. The songs were great and he really kept the party going! I don't know that a single person had a bad time! -

Scott was very easy to work with and very understanding with last minute changes because of weather. There was music from start to finish a total of 7 hours . Everyone had a great time and the mix of music was awesome. He kept the evening fun and flowing. He made the reception about Nick and Sierra as well as the guests. -

Canceled the day of my wedding
Everything seemed to be working out perfectly until the day of our wedding. I reached out to Scott while I was setting up and he said he couldn't come that there was a death in the family and he would be in touch next week. No replacement was sent or even a suggestion. We had to scramble the day of, hours before to get a last-minute DJ. I gave him two weeks, then after not hearing from him, I reached out via text and email about the refund. Scott proceeded to give me an attitude about the money and told me he would be making payments. Essentially he was paying me every 2 weeks a portion of the refund that he owed me. I filed a claim w. the BBB because he was giving me a hard time and he told me he wouldn't give me the rest of the refund unless I canceled my claim, he also said he didn't have to refund me at all, but he chose to do that. Wedding Wire shouldn't be endorsing this man, and I see that there are several other 1 star reviews that have similar experiences, so how does his business have over 4 stars? I am so disappointed, having good music at our event was really important to me and I handpicked every song from the beginning till the end of the day and none of those songs were played because I had to hire someone just a few hours beforehand and had zero prep time to communicate with the new DJ, even though I am grateful for him, he did a great job on short notice. If you are looking for a DJ in the area, go with Rockin Ray Hinkle. -

My daughter and son-in-law were provided Scott's name by their venue. My daughter called and made the arrangements for their wedding, then COVID hit. After changing the date and the venue several times, they finally had to cancel their date.
When writing to Scott via email informing him of their unfortunate decision they had no control over, they requested their money be refunded. Scott told them that he was essentially out of business due to COVID, he paid for leads, and a new event planner and offered them $400 for literally doing nothing. He never even met them in person. He was charging them for his choice to be in business.
My daughter offered him $200 for holding the date and for trying to be understanding of the situation, but he would not even respond. When her husband called and tried to speak with Scott, Scott got rude with him and hung up on him when he requested that Scott refund their money.
They will now be taking him to court for breach of contract after speaking to an attorney. He cannot use COVID to bilk couples out of their money for doing nothing. After reading some of the other reviews, I see this seems to be a pattern of Scotts. He spends the money before the event and then when it falls apart, he has no money to make things right. Great business plan! Definitely not a first choice.. -

Do not hire!!!
We rented the photo booth from Scott (contract signed & deposit paid) for our big day.
I reached out to him the day prior to our wedding, & was told he cannot make it. Note that his site states that, there are multiple employees.
We purchased frames for every guests & props as well in preparation for the booth.
He had no intentions of showing up or even reaching out to us.
He refused to refund our deposit.
It took over a month of texting & contacting a lawyer to get our refund back.
He intends to scam hard working people out of their money & had no remorse of his actions.
Thankfully we did not book him as a DJ, then we would have been really screwed. -
