I would definitely not recommend Kyle. We hired him for our wedding and it was really the only…read moremistake we made - every other vendor we had was great. It was a challenge for us to book a DJ since we are currently living in California so we couldn't meet him before the wedding in Victoria. I think one minute with this guy would have told us to go elsewhere. Kyle was unprofessional, showing up 2 hours later than the time he requested and not bringing the equipment with him that he had promised. He was also rude to both my parents and our guests. He complained constantly about everything. He even sent rude text messages to my friends correcting their spelling of band names they requested - who does that? I could have forgiven all this if he had been good at his job. He totally messed up the transition between songs during our ceremony. It couldn't have been more abrupt. He also insisted on playing all of these terribly mash-ups that he must have put together himself that nobody could possibly dance to instead of the songs that we were requesting. I don't want to make a laundry list of complaints I just want to warm others to look elsewhere for a DJ. I'm sure they are all better than Kyle.

I am quite surprised to see the poor review by A H. Kyle DJ'd our wedding and I was very happy with…read morehis service. I found him to be professional and punctual. Kyle provided the music for our ceremony at Beacon Hill Park and immediately after had to rush to our reception location to set up since our reception venue had tight time restrictions for set up. (He was not allowed to set up before the ceremony since it's a restaurant open for lunch). This only gave him about 2ish hours to get there and set up. We were quite concerned but he was quite confident that it could be done. Of course, it was all done when we got there (lights, speakers, and all) and I would have been fine if it was a bit behind schedule considering the circumstances. I had a list of songs I wanted to use and of course he was able to play all the unusual songs I had requested during the ceremony as well as most if not all the songs I requested during the reception. Some may say I was quite specific since I even had a list of certain genre of songs I wanted during entrance, cocktail hour,dinner time, and others for the dance portion and he follow through 100%. He was also our emcee which I fear would be impersonal but I wanted all my guests to enjoy themselves and he did an overall GREAT job. No awkwardness at all. I must also commend Kyle because he had no hesitation when we requested he be present for our unorganized rehearsal the day before the wedding and we are glad he did because it was helpful to learn our timing and he offered suggestions as well. He also took his time to contact our venue about set up and things he needed, one less thing I needed to worry about. I am also going to note that we also rented a projector screen that was awkwardly large from another vendor which was kind of a hassle for us to bring to the reception venue since they wouldn't have space to store it before the ceremony. Kyle offered to take it in his truck and set it up for us at the venue, as well as the set up the projector itself. At the end of the night, he even offered to return it for us since he had space in his vehicle. We couldn't believe it since again, one less thing to worry about. Because we are out of towners, we only met Kyle once or twice(rehearsal) before the big day but he was incredibly responsive to my many emails. I am more of an email person and when someone emails me within a few hours, I truly appreciate that. In terms of pricing, I didn't do too much shopping but he fit the bill just right for us and especially with the service we received, I would hire Kyle no question.

I am so, SO glad we found him. He fit us in for a consult that same week, and he was great to work with. When we said, "Uhhh... we don't really have strong music preferences... at all," I was worried he wouldn't know what to do with us, but he easily figured out what we were going for, and he played the perfect mix of songs. He also did all the setup for our friend who played guitar and sang for our processional, and it sounded amazing. We achieved our goal of getting people to dance at our brunch wedding, and there's no way we could've done it without Mike. People are still thanking us for how much fun they had, and Mike was a HUGE part of that. I can't say enough good things about him.

I had first reached out to Oliver when I was still in the beginning stages of planning my wedding, and he replied within hours to provide a list of his services and estimated pricing. I had not considered doing live music for my ceremony before, but after learning more about how Oliver also plays guitar, my then-fiance and I really liked the idea of having Oliver play from his extensive repertoire (he can play classical, bossa/Latin, jazz, and more contemporary songs). A few months prior to the wedding, I shared my Spotify playlist with Oliver so he can have an idea of what type of music we'd like to have during the dancing part of the reception. Communicating with Oliver was always seamless, and when I began to transition logistics to my wedding coordinator, everything kept going smoothly. My guests were really impressed that Oliver was both the guitarist and the DJ at our wedding. Oliver's music helped set the mood for my wedding, and I am so glad that he was a part of our special day!
