Out of all the vendors we worked with for our wedding, Peter was by far the most professional. We…read moreloved working with him and having him as our wedding DJ! We found a number of our vendors simply by asking family and friends. This was also the case with Peter; Rachel's uncle used to work with him many years ago and recommended Peter's DJ services to us. We were so glad to make that connection! Prior to the wedding, we met Peter in person once - the day we signed the contract - and otherwise communicated over email and Skype. It was perfect for us since we held the wedding in Central NY but planned it from San Francisco. Peter was always quick to respond to emails any time we had questions and always incredibly helpful. It took us a long time to settle on songs to use throughout the ceremony and reception but Peter was helpful, flexible and adaptable when working with us on a late schedule. He comes prepared with a list of song suggestions from previous clients that he can give to help with your choices for first dances, cake cutting, ceremony, etc. As we got to the week before the wedding we changed our mind on what we wanted for music playing during dinner. We told Peter to play songs from the 1950s to today over the course of dinner - essentially walking us through the decades. That was all the direction he needed to run with it and make it a hit. We trusted Peter to pick songs when we couldn't; we decided a day or two before the wedding that we wanted to do the "shoe game" during the reception and delegated the song selection to him without a second thought. He nailed it - with game show music! We had a surprise firework showing in the evening. Peter didn't know about this until we told him 10 minutes prior. We asked him to "make an announcement" for people to stay just a bit longer - without giving away the surprise - because many were starting to leave. He did a great job with the announcement and gave the attendees a hint of what was coming by playing Katy Perry's "Firework" song. Our event was outside and the dinner and reception were held primarily inside a large tent. We used Peter's wireless uplights to help illuminate the tent. This was HUGE for us. One of our biggest worries going into this event was powering everything on generators. Knowing that Peter had *wireless* lights he could bring for us - that ran on batteries and wouldn't need the generator was a huge win for us. He let us customize the colors we used for the uplights to match the wedding colors. Peter is extremely detailed in his planning and preparation prior to the event which we saw reflected as a seamlessly run event - with him leading the way. We'd hire him again in a heartbeat and highly recommend him to anyone who may want DJ services in the future.

Peter was great! I chose him as our wedding dj largely for his organizational skills (based off of…read moreother reviews). He put together a day-of schedule that he distributed to us as well as all of our other vendors (photographer, officiant, etc) so everyone knew what was happening and when. He also was a great help for music selections and played exactly what we wanted-- we requested a couple of Hindi songs which was no problem for him to incorporate into our reception setlist. He also provided music during and before our ceremony. We had music playing as guests arrived and two microphones for the ceremony for an officiant and a vocalist. If you're in the central NY area, you can't go wrong with Peter!

From our first meeting over coffee we could tell that Mary got us, and we just loved hanging out with her. Our engagement shoot was a blast, even though it was 6am - we just had the greatest time working with her. We could not WAIT until the wedding, and she made a crazy day go SO smoothly. It rained, the schedule changed, everything was up in the air.... but she kept us calm, relaxed, and was a constant reminder of what was important, and how to just take a deep breath and enjoy our day. I don't even know how many times we've said to each other "I miss Mary! I want to hang out with Mary again!" And on top of all this, her images are flawless. She found the beauty in every detail, she captured the fun, she made us feel like movie stars, and we just. Love. Her. Book her now! She's the best! :)
