We really recommend Bugsie Productions. The sound quality was fantastic. Shawn was an incredible DJ. So fun to work with throughout the process, and on the wedding day Shawn had such good energy, and kept people entertained, dancing and eased any wedding worries we might have had. We felt listened to, and the wedding playlists from everything, pre-ceremony to the send off perfectly represented my partner and I. We had the wedding we envisioned and dreamed of, and that is because of Shawn. -

Shawn Hodson at Bugsie Productions is an amazing DJ. When we were looking for DJ companies at a wedding expo in Seattle, we immediately liked the staff at Bugsie. They are professional, experienced, and provide full service audio, lighting, emcee, and DJ services. Shawn met wand worked with us before the wedding to ensure our ceremony and reception went smoothly. We told him the most important thing about our reception is that we wanted our guests to dance. He delivered! He chose songs that had everyone on their feet dancing while honoring our do not play list. We highly recommend Bugsie. -

Craig was a great DJ and a crucial part of our wedding experience. He took care of all of our audio needs, from the wedding ceremony to the end of the reception. He also did a fantastic job as our MC providing the exact experience we hoped for. Can’t recommend Craig enough to anybody in need of a fantastic DJ! -

If you have a group who loves to dance, DJ Shawn is perfect for you! He did a great job keeping things on track, and the energy he brought to our wedding was incredible. It was the perfect wedding, and a large part of it was thanks to DJ Shawn. Would recommend him one thousand times over! -

We booked the Diamond package with Bugsie productions for our wedding, and we were thrilled with the outcome. We were originally working with DJ Shawn for most of the process, but sadly he got COVID at the last minute. Fortunately, DJ Craig filled in and did an incredible job. He nailed all of our ceremony music, including quite a few unique song requests. When we had no clue what to play for dinner music, they filled in all the gaps beautifully. They even helped us round out our wedding reception with karaoke at the end! Bugsie productions gives you the perfect balance of accommodating all of your special requests to make your day exactly how you picture it, and bringing their skill and experience to fill in all of the parts you don't want to think about. -

We went with Bugsie Productions for our wedding DJ/ MC. We got DJ Craig and he was amazing to work with!!! He met with us a couple times prior (very flexible through zoom meetings), brought up different creative ways to make our wedding more unique, and was very professional. The wedding day went smoothly and he set up two sound systems for us (one in a barn and one in the event space). We had up-lights included in our package which were a lot of fun when it came to dancing and lighting up the space with color. Overall would definitely recommend!!! -

Katy N. Sent on 11/15/2021The best decision we've ever made was hiring Bugsie Productions!
There is a reason Bugsie Productions has 5 stars reviews across the board on every website. I have never advocated for a business as much as I am about to with these guys. From start to finish, every interaction with them was flawless. My husband and I knew right from the beginning that our DJ was going to be one of the most important decisions we would make for the wedding. Music has been one of our biggest mutual passions since we met 4 years ago, specifically our love for EDM. Unfortunately, most of our family has had very little exposure to that kind of music, so we knew it was going to be tricky finding someone who could balance our favorite genre with the classics. We knew IMMEDIATELY that Shawn was the best DJ we could ever ask for. It was clear right from the start that he had not only the skill and experience we were looking for, but also a passion for music that rivaled ours. He was able to assure us that our wedding would have the best mix of music that would get both us and the crowd dancing all night long, and we had so much fun planning out the details with him. He even helped us lock in the perfect music for the ceremony to showcase some of our nerdiness (music from Jurassic Park, Lord of The Rings, and How to Train Your Dragon).
All of that was just the beginning of our amazing experience with Bugsie. The day of the wedding finally came and of course the 100° sunny weather we’d had for months prior turned on a dime into the strongest rain and wind we had seen in years. We had planned for most of the wedding to take place in the outside portion of the venue (ceremony, dinner, and dancing) so the staff had set up tents over the dining tables and DJ station in preparation for the storm. Luckily, we made it through the ceremony before the storm hit, but halfway through dinner we knew that we were going to have to change plans quickly. So, amid hurricane strength winds and pouring rain, Shawn and his assistant Isaac packed all their gear and moved it inside the venue so we could continue on with our night. They were incredibly quick and efficient, and before we knew it they had us right back on schedule for the rest of the nights events.
It is clear that Shawn has been doing this for many years. He was not only and expert behind the sound board, but also kept the crowd laughing all night long with his charming and witty banter. There wasn’t a single dull moment with him as our MC. Dinner trivia and the shoe game were a huge hit, and Shawn and Isaac had everyone dancing and partying until the moment my husband and I were sent off. They were adaptable, professional, and an absolute delight to spend time with. At the end of the day, we had received more compliments on our choice of DJ than any other aspect of our wedding.
Thank you so much to the owner of Bugsie Productions, Craig, and to Shawn and Isaac for sharing that special night with us. You are all unrivaled in what you do and made our evening completely unforgettable. If you live in Washington, I promise you there are no better DJs available than these guys here. -

We started talking with Shawn in the summer of 2019. We instantly had a connection when we met him in person! Then the pandemic happened! Fast forward to last Saturday, July 24th. Not only was Shawn an excellent DJ, he went above & beyond to meet our expectations. He was our Wedding Planner helping with timeline, announcements, seating and gave us a ride back to our Airbnb! Everybody had a great time dancing and enjoying each other. Shawn loves what he does, and we can tell. If we are ever looking for a DJ, Shawn is our guy!! -

Shawn was amazing! He took the time to get to know my wife and I when preparing for our wedding. He really made it clear that it was important to him that we were happy with the service he provided. Shawn gave great guidance in figuring everything out when we weren’t sure about something without dictating what we should do. He was so kind and fun, made us feel really comfortable, helped keep the structure of the day, had the perfect energy level when on the mic, and it was obvious that he loves what he does. I would hire Shawn again in a heartbeat! HIGHLY recommend! -

Craig was super amazing!! We had our wedding July 19th so right in the middle of COVID craziness. Craig was super flexible as we kept changing our minds and plan as COVID guidelines kept changing! We seriously could not have asked for a better DJ. Stellar guy, super friendly and helpful. 10/10 recommend!
