It was a pleasure to work with DJ Maestro from beginning to end. During our initial meeting, he shared a preview of the questionnaire that he would have couples fill out in the lea...d up to the wedding. As I looked through it, it was clear that he tried to make the process as easy as possible for the couples he would work with. With so many other pieces my husband would need to organize, I appreciated his approach and knew I wanted to move forward with him.
Even though he offers packages, they are flexible, and he is willing to swap in one service for another. We were able to add another hour to the package we ended up going with since we did not opt for a gobo—it was great to be able to keep the things we wanted and deprioritize the things we didn’t. In the lead up to the wedding, he was prompt in answering all the questions and emails I had. When we asked for his opinion related to the order of our initial timeline for the reception, he gave us his offered us several recommendations to consider. We appreciated his thoughts as someone who has been to so many weddings! As we got closer to the big day, we scheduled a time to meet again to go through all the details and it worked out that we could meet in person. This final meeting was super helpful to make sure we were giving him all he needed, that we could all ask questions of each other, and make sure we were all on the same page in terms of what my husband and I wanted. The day of the wedding, he showed up right on time. He handled all aspects of the day—ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. Ceremony went off without a hitch! It was clear he coordinated with the officiant and photographers so that everyone knew where to be and what to do when each song began. He was even kind enough to offer us a second microphone at no cost for a reading our friends would be doing at ceremony—so very appreciated! After the cocktail hour, he helped us kick off the night with a salute to our parents, our grand entrance, first dance, speech and dinner. His recommendations for the order of the night ensured that everyone was in their seats when and that no one else was on the dance floor so we would be the focus. As far as the dancing goes – many of my guests mentioned how sore they were the next day because they had danced so much the night before. We had mostly given him our preferred genres that he should play versus an actual playlist (thought we did make some specific requests) and he delivered the energy based on what we gave him. We had advised we also wanted an hora loca – a high energy dance hour. While we had already ordered light up swag to hand out during this time, he surprised us with balloons for all our guests to help them get in a real.serious.dance mood. It was a fun and unexpected bonus that really took the party to another level! Our big day would not have been the same without DJ Maestro! He catered to all our musical tastes and that of our guests – from banda, to reggaeton, merengue, cumbia, hip hop and more. He was super helpful by sharing his expertise in the lead up to the big day and since he is bilingual, he could deliver important info in Spanish and English so all our guests felt included. When it was time to go, the send off he organized with the remaining guests was a sweet surprise and fun way to end the night. Trust DJ Maestro with your wedding and special event entertainment and music needs…he will absolutely deliver.
