I am having trouble finding all the DJ info in one spot. Can everyone post who they used, contact info, and any comments about them?
Thanks  |

I liked DJ Ricardo. He was professional, followed the playlist, adjusted the types of songs based upon what my guests were enjoying, and worked well with the on-site coordinator. He didn't speak a lot, but I didn't do any introductions, etc. so there really wasn't a need in our case. Maye has said (jokingly) that he's definitely not shy on the mic if that's what's called for.

Sure thing! He is a nice man who is professional, courteous, and appears to do this all the time so I'm sure he'll work out great for you.

I really liked DJ Antares, although he told me he rarely does weddings himself anymore. I think brides get referred to other DJs through the company he works with. They seem to get good reviews though! (see Meaghan's review)
I would suggest having a friend be there for backup emcee duties in case your DJ isn't great at emceeing. Our best man emceed everything and did a great job.

How many hours did you hire your DJ for? If we have a 4 pm wedding, cocktail hour from 4:30 - 5:30 - how long would you hire the DJ for?
I'm thinking 5 hours.

We are using DJ Gaston Montano and have him for 4 hours. I don't know how to reach him b/c my coordinator set this up. But we have his play lists and they look pretty comprehensive. I would be happy to share them if anyone is interested. Our coordinator assured us that he is really good. His price is $180 per hour.

Thanks for all the help girls!! I finally decided on DJ Ricardo. I am booking him for 4 hours - maybe add an hour once we get closer to the wedding date and figure out the schedule more.
Thanks again for all your help! | |
