Tom,
I had to call you and tell you how happy we are! DJ Mike McKee was a real class act!
We were 100% satisfied with his services as our DJ and MC!
We really had a great time at our wedding and people commented on how good the music
was! Thank You!!!

Tom,
I just got back from being out of country. I had an email from one of your pending brides for 2007 
sitting in my mailbox and I sent a very good referral.
This is the first time I believe I've talked to you since the wedding
and I just wanted to thank you for the awesome job you did at our wedding.
I was really impressed and received numerous compliments on your performance.
Thank you so much for all of your hard work you put in that day.

Hi Tom,
Thank you so much for your patience.  I am sure this is a busy season for you as August starts to fill up. 
Darrell and I were very impressed with your DJ services when we interviewed a while ago
(I think it was a month ago?).  However, you are just out of reach of our budget
 so we must regretfully move on.  Again, thanks for your patience with us
as we came to this difficult decision. 
I wish you the best of luck!
"Why would I put this one in?...Because even though we are not a fit for every budget,
clients do see our professionalism and no pressure sales 
and take the time to share that!"- Tom
Best regards,

Tom,
We had a wonderful time at our wedding. It was better than we could have ever imagined!
Thank you so much for the wonderful job you did! Our family and friends were talking about what a great DJ you were...
days after the wedding was over. We will definitely refer all of our friends to you when
the time comes for their weddings. Hope you're doing well! Thanks again for everything!

Hi Tom,
Sorry it has taken us so long to get back to you but

after our big day! We really want to thank you so much

Dear Tom & Mike,
I am writing you this letter to let any prospective clients you have know what an amazing service you provide.
Having experienced your DJ services at five weddings, I feel I am more than qualified to recommend your company.

My first experience with you was at the wedding of Sam and Bejhorn Perry-Jones,
I was forced to be sober that night due to some antibiotics I was taking and
I wasnt really sure how much dancing I would do seeing as though the only time
I dance is when Ive had a few cocktails. Mike was SO incredibly fun that night and
played the best music, I could not believe it when I was busting some moves on the dance floor with no Coors Light courage. This was the night that there was no doubt in my mind
who was entertaining at my wedding.
You were booked shortly after for our wedding, July 19, 2003.

I have to say that people are STILL talking about our reception.
Mike had everyone dancing, seriously, from my one and a half year old niece to my eighty-five year old Grandmother.
When the reception came to an end, literally, if our friends and family could have,
they would have been yelling "HELL NO, WE WONT GO!", but, under the circumstances
that would have been in poor judgment. At any rate, due to the enthusiasm of the crowd
and nobody wanting to stop dancing, my mother made the executive decision to indulge
us with one more hour of Mikes services, which he kindly obliged (to the sound of the raging cheer from the crowd upon hearing the news!)

Mike has DJd at least three other weddings that I can remember, Kelli and Bryan Carr, Hugh and Eileen Egan and James and Connelly Linden. Basically, we have not been to a wedding where Mike was not the DJ. All of the couples Ive listed have totally different tastes in music, yet, every single reception was a huge success.

In my opinion, the entertainment makes the reception3;not the food or what color your flowers are. If you have a bad DJ/Band then your reception is going to suffer and that is what people remember. Mike knows how to read the crowd and he responds, he is smooth in his performance and does not overpower the microphone or interfere with the party with lame comments or jokes.

You can have anyone call me anytime to speak on your behalf, I recommend you to anyone I know that needs party entertainment because I know that there event will be a huge success and they will be thanking me later!!

Happy New Year!

July 2003 Bride


Hi Tom!
The wedding was absolutely amazing!  
I cannot thank you enough for helping us to make it the perfect evening!
The after party was great too, but I'm not so sure everyone needed to drink more after the wedding!  ;) Yo
u can absolutely put me as a reference for you; we'd like to stay in touch!
Maybritt & Casey Haeling 11/05/05 (Darlington House, La Jolla)

Tom,
Not a problem, go ahead and charge the OT charge from 10-11 pm. 
THANKS so much for keeping everyone dancing far longer than we ever expected!
Thanks for your great job coordinating, I know we had a lot going on!  Did you enjoy it?  What did you think about our entire wedding? The sound system was perfect for our ceremony and thanks for being a backup to the harpist. I was worried she wouldn't make it down from LA in the traffic. Sergiu and I had a lot of fun and are grateful for your patience with all our emails and changes as well as your professionalism throughout the planning process and wedding day. We were happy and honored you ended up DJ-ing our wedding.  
Sincerely,
France & Sergiu 10/15/05 ( The Westgate Hotel, San Diego)


Hi Tom,
I just wanted to say thank you for being the DJ for our wedding!  Brian and I both thought you did an excellent job. You played great music and kept everyone on the dance floor! You also did a great job of coordinating/announcing all the events.  I definitely plan on recommending you to all of my friends getting married in the near future.Thanks for everything. You really helped to make our day wonderful!
Sincerely,
Kelli Riparbelli, 9/24/05  (Villa Ragusa, Campbell)

Tom,
I can't say enough about your personality and attention to detail at our wedding. I was so nervous about our previous DJ we'd hired. I soon realized the money I was saving was not worth the stress of his unprofessional approach. Ryan and I were so happy you could take over and be our DJ. From the ceremony music to the last dance you kept us on track and the energy going! Oh by the way, I love your wedding planner...that made organizing our wishes so much easier.
I'm happy to refer you to my clients at the salon and my friends. I hear you already booked a wedding from one of my guests...good for you!
Thank You!
Julie & Ryan May 27, 2005, (Falkner Winery, Temecula)

Tom,
Thank You so much for accomodating both sides of our families equally. It's not easy entertaining two families from two completely different cultures! We were very happy with how you handled the situation with a very professional attitude.
We appreciate that you actually took the time to play the Salsa c.d.'s we brought you and your blend of American and Mexican music was perfect for our two families ...Mark & Bonnie (the Bride & Groom) were very happy with your performance and musical choices. Thank You for a memorable day!

Tom,
Thank You so much for not only keeping us organized during our whirlwind day, but for seeing to the little details we didn't expect, like serving the champaigne to our head table when the caterers forgot us! Thank you for playing our requests and for keeping the music variety circulating. I think we were complimented most about our music! We're happy to be a referral for you and your future brides!
