My spouse and I had Michael as the DJ for our wedding and he was exceptional! We were very comfortable chatting and meeting with him during our initial planning calls. He also took all of the artists/songs we requested and did a great job interweaving them throughout the night even when we forgot to send him some of the parent dance songs. We would absolutely work with him again!

Michael was extremely helpful and knowledgeable starting with our first phone call. He listened to our concerns and wishes, and made our wedding day so much fun. On the wedding day, he made sure everything ran smoothly and kept the party going. I made a custom playlist for cocktail hour, and he was able to play it for us. He is a true professional and knows what he's doing. I would absolutely recommend him for your wedding!

Michael Simonetta

Owner

I started my professional wedding journey as a musician over 37 years ago, and after 2 years doing weddings in a band I moved into the DJ side. With 30+ years of DJ experience and over 4,000+ successful events, I can say I have mastered the fine line between fun and tastefulness as well as knowing all kinds of music. I am consistently staying on top of industry trends and seeking ways to improve your overall experience. I am a Justice of the Peace and have married couples now for over 15 years. And from the sound equipment, the lighting, the Photo Booth, I only use the very best for my clients

time to get to know us and understand the vibe we wanted for our day. What really set him apart was how personal the experience felt. Michael wasn’t a cookie-cutter DJ at all. He was thoughtful, organized, and made sure everything flowed perfectly. The dance floor was packed all night, and the energy never dropped.

After securing our wedding venue and date at The Haley Mansion in Mystic, CT, My first call was to DJ Michael. Back in 2019, my mother and I found Michael at the Mohegan Sun Brida...

l Expo, he DJ my older sister's wedding and it was amazing we danced the night away. Fast forward 6 years later, it was my turn and I wanted Michael! We connected and sent up a phone call interview. He was so charismatic, and personal through the phone (he did remember us) it made the other vendors seem almost annoyed when interviewing others. We decided to go with Michael not only for our connection but for the extra enhancements he offered and at an amazing price (probably my least expense vendor that did the most work). Michael was not only our DJ but our wedding officiant(JOP). He handled everything from music, photo booth, lighting and of course actually marrying us. Was easily reachable via emails, texts and phone calls. His assistant was also amazing and professional as well. Michael using all his experience and years of expertise even helped with the physical design layout of our tented wedding. making suggestions on dance floor layout, table placements and most importantly how to get and keep the crowd up and moving all night long. There are no words to express how amazing my fairytale wedding was and a lot of the behind the scenes and timely flow of the night wouldn't have been possible without Michael there. After being to and in a fair share of weddings no ones music and interaction with couples and guest compare to that of Michaels!! Our family has become wedding snobs when it comes to not having Michael as a DJ.

nd took the time to really understand our vision—which was to keep the party going all night long! Throughout the planning process, Michael was always available for a call, and every time I spoke with him, I felt more at ease. The ceremony music was timed beautifully, from the processional to the recessional, and the lapel mics for the officiant and groom worked perfectly. Every part of the day—from entrances and the first dance to speeches and open dancing—flowed seamlessly. Michael nailed every transition and kept the energy high all night. Our guests raved about the music—some even joked they couldn’t sit down because every time they tried, another amazing song would come on! He arrived on time, handled setup flawlessly, and made sure everything ran smoothly from start to finish. I truly can’t say enough good things—I absolutely loved working with Michael!

Look no further for your wedding DJ, you won’t regret hiring Michael!

ion order to special requests to announcements! He took care to pronounce everyone's name as best he could, including a grandparent that was unable to attend. He was professional and communicative but not over communicative. A good DJ is one that you don't notice - one that just runs smoothly and keeps the energy alive! Cocktail hour was beautifully jazz and then the beats picked up through the night. Michael would easily be hired for our next event!

him up until the very last minute he left our wedding Mike was professional, easy to work with, and made everything run seamlessly. He made sure our wedding was exactly the way WE wanted it and made us feel seen and heard. He made us feel like we were his only clients. I don’t know how he does it, but he makes it look easy! And everyone loved his officiant services as well. He really takes the time to get to know his clients and it shows. 10/10 would recommend Mike to everyone I know!

Mike was our DJ for our wedding earlier this month, and we have so many positives to share! Mike stressed from our beginning meet-and-greet call that he wants to play music that is...

special to us – the night was filled with our requests, his recommendations, and great flow along the way. All our guests, across all generations, enjoyed the music. I’ve never attended a wedding where the dance floor was packed from the second it opened to the very last minute of the night! We wanted a unique processional/recessional for our ceremony, and Mike never said “no” to any of our asks – instead he made them happen with perfection, with seamless transitions between everything! We appreciate all of Mike’s advice, suggestions, humor, professionalism and dedication to make our night unforgettable! He made us feel comfortable to work with him from the start, and truly made a stress-free day for us. Cannot recommend him enough!

Many of our guests said the music he played was perfect and one of the best, if not the best, part of our reception. I could not recommend Michael enough to anyone looking for a wedding dj, he made sure the dance floor at our wedding was packed all night and knew exactly how to hype up the crowd!

And he kept us and our guests dancing the entire night. Thank you a Michael :) We would recommend you to anyone!

e our wedding to discuss everything from timeline to vibes for each section of our day. He has an incredible guidebook with suggestions for everything from pre ceremony music to parent dances, introductions and more. He is super knowledgable about appropriate timing and building the music for the night, and he's very engaging and personable. He kept the party going right until the very end, and on top of that, he helped time everything perfectly. Transitioning from introductions to dances to cake cutting and all else the night entailed, he kept the night moving. I can't recommend Michael enough!!

d school taste when it comes to party music. From the first call we had with Michael, my fiance and I knew he was the perfect choice. He was the only DJ we talked with, once we got on the phone and started chatting, we knew Michael was our guy. His attention to detail, professional yet personable demeanor made us both feel comfortable, we really enjoyed our phone calls. Michael helped us orchestrate and structure the timeline of the evening. It really tied everything together and helped us imagine how the night would go. He offered good advice, not only for music, but for how the night would flow best. He did not disappoint. With Michael we got way more than just a DJ - Joseph and Nicole Boroski

Michael Simonetta was game changing for my fiancé and me when it came to planning the music for our wedding reception. We had our first phone call with him and he immediately put o...

ur minds at ease regarding the daunting task of entertaining all of the most important people in our life for six hours straight. Throughout the entire planning experience, he provided us with guidance and advice on how to make our very special night all that we wanted it to be. He was consistently easily accessible and responded to all of our questions and concerns in a timely manner and with professionalism. At the night of our wedding he took charge and carried out our plans to the tee, while also zigging and zagging with flexibility when we needed him to. Our guests raved about the music and his performance, which was perfectly commanding, yet didn’t steal the show. Michael has won The Knot’s Best Of award countless times, and now we know why. Choose him to be your wedding DJ if you want to have the best reception ever.

Jess & Chris R

DJ Mike is truly the best!! He kept us on the dance floor all night, and honored all of our weird requests. Our reception was at the Branford House on the CT shoreline, and he was ...

so familiar with the quirks of the space, and had speakers throughout the venue so that guests could feel like they were part of the experience no matter where they were seated. He was a pleasure to work with, and was a great emcee and dj. Thank you so much!!

Erika B

Michael was an amazing DJ and exceptional showrunner/emcee! He works very closely with Farmington Gardens (our venue), so they were able to coordinate on timing for dinner, dessert...

, speeches, etc. Everything went so smoothly—no issues with anything! (And I’ve been to many weddings where music gets messed up during the ceremony). He perfectly executed the first set of dancing immediately after our First Dance—everyone was out on the dance floor and the energy in the room was unmatched! When dessert was ready, the majority of the guests left the dance floor but he knew which songs to play while everyone was away and knew how to get them all back out on the floor when they were all done. As an emcee, he was so lively and energetic—never pushy or annoying. In addition to DJ services and lighting (which comes included in his DJ package!), we also got the photobooth which was an absolute HIT! At the end of the night, he gave us the photobook with all of the pictures AND a flash drive so we were able to post all the funny pictures to Facebook and send to friends and family. We highly recommend Michael as a DJ. Our wedding was the best night ever with a major thanks to him!

Maddie B

Mike is amazing! We had talked to a few DJ's before talking with Mike and our initial phone call lasted so long! We found that we had so much in common and he really seemed to unde...

rstand what we were looking for with our music for our big day. He sent us a packet with a whole list of songs that we were able to go through to help us narrow down what we were looking for. We didn't have to worry about anything, he set up and was able to do music for our ceremony, cocktail hour and reception flawlessly. Mike offers a photo booth that we were on the fence about doing but we are so glad we did, it was a huge hit and the photos we got to go home with are priceless! Mike made the whole day a piece of cake and really hit the nail on the head. We had a fantastic time dancing the night away and got lots of compliments on our song selection and how awesome the DJ was :) Thanks for making the night so much fun Mike!!

He was a joy to talk to and joke around with in the months leading up to our wedding. His level of experience and familiarity with our venue allowed us to feel at ease and confident that we were in good hands. On our actual wedding day he worked seamlessly with our day-of coordinator to make sure everything went smoothly and that my husband and I didn't have to worry about a thing. He even worked with my husband on a last-minute addition when my husband wanted to sing a surprise song with the groomsmen! From start to finish, Mike was awesome and I recommend him 100%!
