Chuck was the musician and DJ for our magical wedding in Anna Maria Island, Florida. We met him by…read moreway of his wife, Dara, who was our photographer. He frequently performs at different restaurants on Anna Maria and is a talented singer, guitarist and piano player. For our day, he performed acoustic guitar, and DJ'd the reception. He was so wonderful to work with, especially considering we made all the plans from Chicago. I sent him a list of about 50 songs we really wanted to hear that night. He had practically all of them, and those he didn't he acquired. Being the pre-wedding ditz I was, my hubby and I hadn't picked our "first dance" yet. We had narrowed it down to five songs. Oops. Chuck called me the day before, totally cool, and before I caught on, he had made the choice for us! (Sneaky.) He told me how much he loved the song, and how perfect it would be. Wow did he call it. It was truly the most amazing moment of both our lives. We still slow dance to this day to TV Carpio doing the sweetest rendition of "I Want to Hold Your Hand." Chuck choreographed the whole night into an unforgettable experience that no one will soon forget.

I booked Christian on August 14th for a birthday surprise on August 28th. Gave all information, put…read moredown my deposit and was told I would get a call the day before to go over what to expect. Never recieved a call the day before. I reach out to Life of the Party at 5pm to state my concerns saying they would reach out to him. Got back with me he would call me soon, he had a busy day. Still never recieved a phone call. Reached back out to Life of the Party the morning of to get his number and reached out to him directly. Called and texted with no answer and as the time got closer I kept calling and he started to decline my phone calls. I received my deposit back but this by far the most disappointing booking I have ever done. I ended up having to go to the birthday party and explain why we no longer had a surprise for the birthday girl.

I can highly recommend Amber to anyone who wants to learn music!

He kept the…read moretimeline going and was able to help shift things around on the spot when we were ahead of schedule. Bill was probably annoyed with how low-key I was throughout the process (lol) but he knew how to ensure I had an amazing wedding. We had a very small ceremony with people of all ages and he somehow got everyone on the dance floor at one point! Highly recommend, especially if you're in need of more help with planning/timeline and keeping the party going! Only suggestion would be to make the process easier for the bride/groom to create a playlist for the wedding, while we used the software provided, it isn't super user friendly for allowing bride/groom to create their own playlists. Future brides, definitely spend some time on the website the DJ provides so you don't miss out on your absolute wants! Thanks again, Bill, for sharing in my perfect day!
