Ovation Entertainment and Dj Mike did such an incredible job on our wedding! There were so many times my fiancé and I were feeling overwhelmed and stressed during wedding planning, but every time we had a meeting with Mike, we always felt energized, accomplished, and excited again. Mike is very responsive, professional, and organized. Mike helped us plan out the timing of our events and recommended the perfect songs for moments where we hadn't yet figured out which songs to play. Mike even helped suggest non-music related things for us, like certain pictures we should have our photographer capture (we followed his recommendations and love those shots, btw.) Ovation's online portal is easy to fill out and add songs to. When it came to the actual wedding, Ovation did a great job at engaging the crowd and getting people to get on the dance floor. We'd recommend them to anyone! read more

I can't express how AWESOME Michael/Ovation Entertainment was at my daughter's wedding! The ceremony began with a special recording. He worked closely with my daughter, the bride, and produced a flawless piece that led beautifully into her entrance music! No one can stop talking about it! Truly flawless. The reception was a hit! The dance floor was never empty! He had awesome props and he guided the whole reception perfectly. His energy and his cool vibe made the reception a total success. If you are looking for perfection, call Micheal. He will not disappoint. THANK YOU so much for making my daughter's (S. Mchugh) wedding day a total success! I recommend Ovation and Michael highly if you want a seamless and fun wedding! (Mother of the Bride) read more

From the very first Zoom call to the very last dance, Brandon and his assistant Richard were absolutely amazing! They were professional, fun, and truly knew how to get everyone on the dance floor for our wedding. The music was fantastic and kept guests of all ages dancing all night long. Brandon brought such great energy -- and the extras like lighted glasses, disco balls, rings, and flags were such a fun surprise! I had no idea those would be handed out throughout the evening, but they added so much excitement and made the dance floor come alive. It was truly sooooo much fun! I would hire Brandon with Ovation Entertainment again in a heartbeat and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a DJ who knows how to make a celebration unforgettable. read more

We hired Michael for our wedding in February 2026. This is my families second time using Michael for a wedding. First my sisters in 2021 and then my own wedding this year. It's really not hard to see why we continue to use Ovation Entertainment for our special events. His dedication to his work, his professionalism and his talent is unmatched. From the moment we started working with him he made us feel like such a priority. From cutting music to helpful suggestions he really made the planning process enjoyable. On our wedding day he really made it feel like a party all night long and no one left the dance floor because he made it that fun for us. We truly can't express how much he did to make our wedding day perfect. Thank you so much Michael, we hope to see you again for our future parties! read more

MICHAEL IS THE BEST!!! My wife and I got married in Sept 2023 and Michael was our absolute favorite vendor we had at our wedding. He was incredibly fun, entertaining, organized, and personal and professional. He had great suggestions on music and games. He was never pushy or rude. His equipment is top notch and even had a bluetooth that reached 100 feet into the other room and still had crisp sound! I honestly recommend Michael to all of my friends now as he had the dance floor packed all night! To top it all off, he had tons of surprise goodies to get all ages to the dance floor! The kids and the aunties and uncles all loved the fun, light up goodies. Our guests thought it was my wife and I that set that up but it was all Michael! We look forward to working with Michael again for any future gatherings we plan to celebrate! read more

Michael at Ovation Entertainment is absolutely exceptional! He goes above and beyond in every way. I could tell within the first few minutes of our initial consultation that this is someone who has been in the business for a long time, has seen it all, keeps current, and knows how to curate the vibe for an exceptional wedding night. We had several meetings leading up to our wedding day where Michael provided value that goes beyond his job description - he provided invaluable advice for our timeline, the overall flow of the evening, and how to ensure that each musical moment evokes the feeling we wanted for ourselves and our guests. He is also an excellent communicator and worked seamlessly with our coordinator, deferring to her appropriately while providing great insight on the aspects of the evening under his purview. On the day of the wedding, he brought the best kind of energy, nailed every cue, and had everyone on the dance floor all night long (which is particularly impressive since I wouldn't consider our group to be big dancers)! It was truly a night to remember thanks to Michael. He's well worth his very-reasonable fee and he's truly earned my trust as a reliable vendor and a person with integrity. If you're on the fence, just book him!! :D read more

Michael DJed for my friend's wedding and I was so impressed by his work that I ended up hiring him for my own wedding. What makes him stand out from other DJs is how thoroughly he works with his couples to customize a unique playlist that's authentic to them and their love story. We wanted our playlist to be a mix of EDM, 2000s pop and hip hop hits and...Disney?! Interesting mix, but he pulled it off and we were so happy with how it all turned out! We had a couple of meetings with him before our wedding to iron out all of our details from the ceremony to the reception and of course the dance floor. He was helpful in coming up with song ideas and also worked with our other vendors on our timeline. And on the day of the wedding, he executed according to our timeline seamlessly and was great at MCing and setting the mood throughout the evening. My husband and I loved looking back at our photos and seeing our guests have so much fun. He provided props like light-up glow sticks and sunglasses which our guests definitely appreciated. Also, the up-lighting that he provided for us really transformed the dance floor. We got so many compliments for our music and everyone looked like they were having a good time. We definitely recommend hiring Michael for your wedding! read more

Best vendor of our wedding! The other five star reviews are accurate. Michael clearly cares a lot and loves what he does. He helped us with planning and kept everything running smoothly! read more

Michael is the ONLY choice for your wedding or event so if you are in need of DJ services look no further. Michael DJ'd our wedding in November 2024 and we couldn't ave made a better choice. The entire process leading up to our wedding day he was very communicative. We had a total of 3-4 calls with Michael where he documented the flow of the entire day, the music that would be played and all of the specifics that were important to my husband and I. He was so thorough and it made us feel so at ease going into our wedding day. I think something that sets Michael apart is his ability to be so personable to a couple and their needs. Shortly after getting to know us, he was able to craft the perfect day and recommend music choices that were exactly what we were looking for that we probably never would have thought of! The day of he was on time, efficient & very professional. The music from the pre-ceremony drinks all the way through the end of the night was spot on. The dance floor was PACKED all night and we received so many compliments from friends and family on how fun the night was. Michael read the room so well and changed the music/vibe depending on how the crowd was feeling, there truly never was a dull moment on the dance floor. I am also so thankful for his sound set-up when it came to the ceremony. His set-up allowed us to have audio of our vows in the highest quality that our photographers then used for our videos that we will be able to look back and listen to for years to come. We cannot thank him and his team enough for how smoothly everything went and how seamless he made the night feel. We would absolutely recommend him over and over again! read more

Mike is the best! My husband and I hired him for our wedding and he knocked it out of the park!! From our first meeting, it was clear he truly cared about us and making our wedding day perfect. He is so organized and has so many great tips and tricks from being in the wedding business for so long! He even planned extra meetings with us to ensure our day ran smoothly and came to check out the venue beforehand to make sure his set up would be ideal. He also made perfect edits for some of our music (first dance, mother/son, and father/daughter dances). From our pre-ceremony all the way to our grand exit- the music was perfect. Mike brought out so many fun props that kept our dance floor alive throughout our whole reception!! He also went above and beyond making sure we had everything we needed on our wedding day. Mike was truly the life of the party and we HIGHLY recommend him for any of your DJ/MC needs!! read more

While planning my wedding, I called about 15 different DJ's before I found Michael. He answered the phone promptly, was very kind and open about his pricing and services- no nickel and diming for add on's. Which I appreciated so much! Leading up to the big day, Michael scheduled zoom meetings with my fiancé and I to understand our vision, music style and he created a down-to-the-minute timeline for our big day. We were so thankful to have him guide us through all those nitty gritty details- since this was our very first time planning a large party. We felt the weight of the world lift off of our shoulders knowing he was in control of our big day. If I could describe Michael's work ethic and services in a few words it would be: reliable, flexible, thorough and clear communication. The day of the wedding, Michael set up tons of equipment all over the venue, attached lapel wireless mics to the officiant, my husband and I, made sure to fade and cut songs at the perfect time, adjusted the music to flow seamlessly into different sections of the night, read the room during dinner-tailored the music, MC'd the crowd wonderfully- what a nice voice this guy has, Then he brought the ultimate mix of songs that got EVERYONE ON THE DANCE FLOOR! The cherry on top was when he brought out all of these amazing light up props, hats, rings, etc every half hour, which was a huge hit! I keep watching the videos of everyone dancing at our wedding and I can't stop smiling- pictures just don't do it justice. It's been 2 weeks since and we STILL have friends and family telling us how incredible the DJ was. I can't say enough good things about Michael's expertise, attention to detail and his ability to bring the life to the party. Not very many people find their calling in life, but Michael has, and he executes it flawlessly! Thank you for making our wedding day seamless and an event that will be talked about for decades. 5 stars, HIGHLY recommend! read more

10/10 for Michael!!! He's definitely living out his passions and gifts through DJ-ing. My wife and I first met Michael in 2019, then because our wedding got pushed back thanks to Covid we got to continue meeting with him until our celebration in 2022. He's extremely easy to work with- one of the things we liked most (among a long list of things) was that we could give him an idea (which was sometimes unique or not completely thought out) that we had and he'd get excited and tell us how to make it work realistically based on his wealth of experience! He met with us multiple times before our event to make sure everything was taken care of and we felt good about every decision. We knew our guests were coming from a wide range of ages and backgrounds and some may not feel comfortable dancing in a lot of situations. Michael has a gift for getting people on the dance floor of all ages and comfort levels, and so many guests had a great time! He definitely helped make our celebration special and we are incredibly thankful to get him as our DJ! read more

Michael at Ovation Entertainment was amazing! He was recommended by our planner/coordinator Michelle from Cheers to Two! Michael was professional, fun, organized, and very entertaining! He was also very accommodating with our tight schedules and made time for all our meetings - we really appreciated that! We were clueless about the types of music we wanted for our wedding day, but Michael helped us pick out the best types of music to have for each moment of our wedding day! During our zoom meeting, he had great suggestions and gave us a wide variety of songs choices to choose from! He also had a website portal for us to utilize which helped us navigate through popular wedding music. Michael was accommodating to all our specific requests as well - like playing certain songs for my brother, making our first dance song work, as well as changing the song to "Shots" when handing out vodka shots on the dance floor! His expertise and professionalism exceeded our expectations! We were so lucky to be able to book Michael to be our DJ/MC on our wedding day! We had an awesome experience working with you! - Mr. and Mrs. Buss :) read more

My wife and I highly recommend Ovation Entertainment if you are considering them to be your DJ & MC for your wedding/next event. Since our first conversation with Michael, we felt very comfortable and reassured by his professionalism and experience. We had a large wedding and we were both nervous about how the day would go and whether we would be able to keep everyone entertained and happy. Michael was always happy to help and provided great advice to us. On the day of our wedding, he did an amazing job as a DJ to keep the party going and as an MC to keep everyone entertained throughout the night. Our guests had a lot of compliments for him and even told him directly that his setlist was lit at the end of the night! If that isn't proof enough of his skill, we don't know what is! read more

We were so lucky to book Michael for our wedding. Like others have been saying, there is so much more than playing a list of songs that goes into being a DJ/MC. Michael's energy, sense of humor, and professionalism blew my expectations out of the water. He met with us several times via zoom to go over the very specific timeline. He communicated well with our wedding coordinator to ensure everything went smoothly on the day of the wedding. He was very adaptable as we had to make last minute changes to our timeline too! Most importantly, not every event goes as planned, so Michael was able to "read the room" by feeling out the crowd and adjust the songs played, ultimately achieving the #1 goal- getting people on the dance floor and keeping them there! After considering a few different DJ's, we found Micheal to be a very reasonable price and offer great value. He even brought stage lighting and these cool light up rings, which my guests loved. Do yourself a favor and book Micheal, he will most certainly the best vendor and the greatest asset to your wedding or special event! read more

I cannot recommend Michael enough! He was the BEST DJ for our wedding, leaving us with no regrets. He is an extremely kind and pleasant person to work with, taking several meetings with us prior to our wedding to make sure he understood our needs/wants. On the day of the wedding he served as a second coordinator and played a crucial role in helping to maintain our event including hitting all music questions for the ceremony and nailing the volume for speeches. When it came to the reception, he killed it! Our guests raved about him and he kept the party going!! The music was awesome, but he also threw out several props, which was a huge hit!! We will definitely use him again for any DJ needs we may have. read more

We worked with Michael and Ovation for our wedding in San Diego and utilized his services for our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. As people who really care about sound and music, after searching for various wedding DJs and not really finding anyone who stood out, Michael came to us recommended by a friend and wedding planner who spoke highly of not only of his great MC skills, but also of his professionalism and organization, which at the time, we thought was an interesting comment to make about a DJ. Her comments soon proved to be absolutely accurate as Michael was efficient and organized from the moment we met him via email, with timely email responses, and prompt scheduling of Zoom meetings prior to our wedding. He also came prepared with his own wedding schedule/timeline on a Google doc which we were able to edit up until the week of the wedding as our ideas/songs/processional order changed. He reviewed several Spotify playlists we provided as inspiration for the ceremony and reception. We absolutely appreciated his professionalism throughout the process, as well as his expert feedback regarding our song choices. He is professional and adaptable, and clearly well-versed in all genres of music. I am confident that no matter what your music preferences are (oldies, country, pop, electronic, rock, a random mix of the above?!), as long as you convey your interests, Michael can throw any genre dance party, and he WILL throw you YOUR best dance party. He surprised the guests with small favors when dancing, and both the kids and grandparents loved his light up toys. Lighting was provided as part of his DJ service as well, which was executed perfectly. I've been to many weddings as a guest, and almost always have a few issues with sound or music, but our entire day ran so smoothly, from ceremony sound to song choices to dancing music transitions, that that only disappointing thing I have to report is that I was so busy as the bride that I did not get to hang out with Michael who felt like a friend after those Zoom meetings! Michael traveled to San Diego from LA for us, and we are so glad that we found him, and we would absolutely work with him again if we ever had the opportunity to throw another party. read more

Do it. Lifesaver. Party Starter. Emcee Extraordinaire You fill out a list of songs on his site so he learns your taste and then he tailors the night around you. And if you give him enough leeway to add great songs from other genres and eras, he will modify the playlist on the spot to keep the audience engaged, dancing, and energized the whole night through. But he's more than just music, lights, and fun party items to keep the guests moving, he's basically your Emcee, DJ, and Coordinator rolled into one. He even helped us find our missing Wedding Cake when the Kitchen Staff couldn't find it. Worth the money. ABSOLUTE LIFESAVER read more

My husband and I hired Michael for our wedding a couple weeks ago and were so impressed by his work from start to finish! Unlike some vendors we worked with, Michael remembered that this was our first time doing this, and provided support for our music making decisions every step of the way. He gave so many helpful suggestions while also making it clear that he just wanted to make our vision happen. He met with us multiple times prior to the event to iron out details, including things like practicing name pronunciations, helping us figure out our timeline, and giving us a variety of suggestions on how to make things go as smoothly as possible. On the actual day of our wedding, he stuck with our plan and was both a phenomenal MC and DJ. Not to mention, he had the best prices of anyone we looked into! He provided fun props on the dance floor like glowing sticks, disco ball necklaces, and light-up glasses (free of charge, this was such a fun surprise!). He also provided his own speakers and even special lighting to make the room look fantastic. He kept track of the timeline and made sure we got to all of our important things. Finally, he's just a really great guy and was a joy to work with. We hope to have a reason to hire him for something else, and could not recommend him highly enough! Thank you, Michael! read more

Ovation Entertainment - Up-lighting in the background was provided by Michael. Added such a nice glow all around the room! - DJs Near Me

Overall phenomenal DJ and just plain great guy. Like many posters already mentioned, Michael is MORE than just your DJ, he's also your MC, and basically will run and set the mood for your entire event. We will definitely be recommending him to all our friends and family! We hired Michael for our wedding in August 2019 after attending a friend's wedding who he DJ'ed for a few years back. This was the one vendor my husband put his foot down on, and said we NEED to get Michael. And it was one of the best decisions (if not the best) we made. Michael is extremely professional, prompt, and talented. He can really read a crowd and make things flow smoothly, and always keeps the fun going. His rates are extremely reasonable and met with us multiple times to get to know our personalities, likes/dislikes, and to create timeline starting from ceremony set up through the end of the night. He also accommodated last minute changes with absolute ease. We can't thank you enough Michael for an unforgettable night, best to you and your family! :) read more

We used Ovation / Michael for our daughters wedding in Oct 2023... highly recommend! He was thorough in organizing ahead of time with the bridal couple, made great suggestions, and promptly returned a worried father's call about father daughter dance song and having music all generations could dance to. Day of he was prompt, professional, and lots of fun. From ceremony to dance party, he definitely added to the joy of the day. Thank you Michael! read more

Incredible DJ for a wedding and event! Michael McNeil was my wedding DJ & MC for the day and we were beyond happy choosing Ovation Entertainment. Michael goes all out for his events. He prepared and walked through our wedding timeline 3 times for over an hour each meeting! He provided such great care, professionalism and fun! The dancing props were a hit and our guests raved about how much fun they had! Our wedding ran on time and flawlessly through all the to do's of speeches and dances. I give Michael 11/10 and anyone who works with Michael knows he is the best! read more

Wow! What a night! Michael MC-ed our wedding in August and it was one of the funnest parties I've ever been to. Every single one of our guests, from 3 year old to 80 year old, were on the dance floor almost all night long. He was like a wedding planner but better, making sure that **everything** runs smoothly, everyone has fun, and my hubby and I don't worry about a thing. Before the wedding: Michael was always available and easy to reach. We set up 3 meetings: intro, rehearsal and final run through a few days before the wedding. He asked us a lot of questions about our tastes, family dynamics, must play and no play songs, etc. after he got the answers, he sent us a detailed plan for the day with almost every minute Planned from our grand entrance to exit. He then coordinated everything with our photographer and videographer and the hotel itself. It literally felt like we had a wedding planner in him. During the wedding: Michael made it really stress free and fun for us. He brought different props (glasses and glow sticks) and everyone had a blast with them. People couldn't stop talking about how amazing he was the entire night. We can't recommend him more to anyone considering hiring a DJ for their wedding. Michael is top notch, professional, caring and amazing human being. read more

We hired Michael to be our DJ for our wedding, and he went above and beyond to make our wedding day as good as possible. We didn't have a wedding planner, so he took it upon himself to help us with the wedding planning process. We met multiple times before the wedding to talk through all of the details, and he gave us a lot of great ideas. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone who is planning a wedding. He is amazing! read more

Michael was an incredible DJ and MC. This man clearly has several years of experience, and it shows. Music: Michael worked with us to really provide a great mix to my wife and I's different tastes. He expertly mixed latin music (salsa, reggaeton, bachata) with hip-hop and pop, and even threw in some fun disco songs for our parents and older guests. His transitions were clean and made sense. The dance floor stayed crowded the whole night. Host: Michael has an amazing voice, so it sounded like an actual radio DJ was hosting our event that night. He met with us several weeks before the wedding to go over music choices and the timeline in great detail. He had several suggestions on how to flow from introductions, to mother/son dance, to cake cutting, as well as several other surprises we had for our guests throughout the night. Overall: Unfortunately, we had to make some last minute changes the day-of due to circumstances beyond our control, and Michael handled it like a pro! He truly did everything he could to keep our guests entertained, and he succeeded admirably. Our wedding day was full of great times, and even with all the excellent vendors we had, Michael was the best. I can't recommend him enough. read more

We just had another Great Party (Cheesecake Harbor View Room) to Celebrate 50 years of marriage 1972-2022. Michael once again did an incredible job for us and our guests. This was our third party that we hired Michael to MC/DJ. Michael does it all from planning a timeline, lighting, props and able to read our guests for the kind of music that will get them on the Dance floor all night. We would never use anyone else. Thanks Michael for another great experience! Take care we love you! Ken and Leticia read more

Aaammmaaazzing DJ! Michael McNeil was fantastic, very professional, well spoken, very engaging with the guests and one of the best DJ's we have ever worked with!

If I could give Michael 12 stars I would! Michael is so professional, organized, & easy going. I would highly recommend him for your event!

10/10!! When I first began to plan my daughter's Bat Mitzvah, I ignorantly thought a DJ showed up to the party to play some tunes. After I hired Michael McNeil, I quickly realized that a DJ is instrumental to a party - and Michael completely blew my expectations out of the water. He is professional, warm, upbeat, positive and knowledgeable. I appreciated that he is the owner of the company, and wasn't going to assign a random DJ to my event. We met on Zoom several times, and once at the venue, to ensure that the timeline was perfect and that our music playlists were solid. At the actual party, he was incredibly engaging with the guests, wonderful with the kids, passed out tons of props, and even continued to play songs after our party end time. My daughter has attended other parties with hype men - and I will tell you that you do not need a hype man...only Michael! My guests raved about him after the party, and I could not be happier. I interviewed several DJs during my search, but you can save yourself some time and hire Michael now. read more

I hired Michael to be the DJ for my wedding at the Richard Nixon Library. I had some unique ideas that I wanted to try and Michael was enthusiastic in helping me achieve my vision. We met several times before the wedding and went over all the details. He anticipated potential problems before they arose and on the day of the wedding, he had everything working perfectly. In addition to being a world-class pro that perfectly interacted with our guests and played spot-on music, he provided lighting that transformed the space into a magical place. I'm somewhat particular when it comes to lighting, and he blew my expectations away. Even during the dancing portion of the reception, he was constantly transforming the room with his lighting. Michael is more than a DJ- he's a wedding wizard. He really helped me bring what I had in my head to reality and I couldn't have done it without him. I enthusiastically and whole-heartedly recommend you hire Michael for your event. Thanks for all your help Michael!! read more

Michael is without question the best DJ and MC on this planet! As I was researching different DJs, his positive reviews and the kind, professional vibes he gave out during our phone conversations sold me. My fiancé and I had so much fun meeting with him and planning out every detail of the wedding. We made several changes to our schedule based on his recommendations and we are very glad we did! He knows how to get guests involved and having a good time, and how to move through the evening at a good pace. We really appreciate Michael's attention to detail, and he did a phenomenal job editing a couple of songs for our processional and first dance. Since our ceremony was outdoors, we were concerned about the quality of sound, especially after experiencing poor outdoor sound systems at a few of our friends' weddings. Michael mentioned during one of our meetings that he cares deeply about the ceremony, not just the reception, so he brings the best equipment to ensure great sound quality. He did not disappoint! The two singers during our ceremony sounded beautiful, and our officiant's charge and our personal vows were crystal clear. During the reception, almost everyone in the room came on to the dance floor, including more elderly family members and those who don't normally feel comfortable dancing. Many people came up to us during and after our wedding saying that our wedding was one of the most organized and fun weddings they've been to, and I attribute a lot of that to our fantastic DJ. read more

We were recommended to Michael McNeill (Ovation Entertainment) from our wedding venue and WOW! What a pleasant surprise! At the beginning of the planning stages i was ignorant to how big of a roll the DJ plays in the event. A few weeks before our wedding we had a 1 hour phone call with Michael and he touched on every second of the wedding. He got song requests, Names of all family and friends, and names of all the vendors. When it actually came time for dancing this brilliant man pulled out props for our wedding guests, When he played Michael Jackson he handed out single sequins gloves, then glow sticks, then hats, and on, and on, and on. We have not stopped getting compliments on Michael McNeill (Ovation Entertainment). Thank you for making our (my new wife's) day so special Scott and Chelsea Stewart 10/14/2017 Alta Vista read more

Michael is absolutely amazing! We could not have hired a better DJ at our wedding. We meet with Michael many times up to the wedding. When many vendors won't speak to you until 3 months prior to the wedding, Michael met with us a year in advance. He wanted to get the ball rolling and get to know us better. We feel like he is truly a friend after working with him and we will always hire him for any big event we have in the future. He also offered wonderful suggestions and music selections. And he listened to us and tailored our music to our personality as a couple. The guests at our wedding raved about him. He got everyone dancing and the dance floor was never empty the whole night. His knowledge about weddings is incredible. And our wedding would not have been as wonderful and gone as smoothly without him. We had a mix of young and older adults as well as individuals from various cultural backgrounds. We were so worried about the music and how we could get people dancing. Michael blended the perfect music for the night - a mix of oldies, top 40s hits, and even some Indian music. It was a blast! Thank you so much, Michael, for making our day even more special. If you have the opportunity to hire him, do so. read more

Best DJ ever, we used Michael for my youngest daughters wedding in 2017 and he was amazing, everyone raved about him and how much fun they had. My middle daughter got engaged and the first thing she said was make sure we get Michael to DJ, and so we did and he never disappoints. the wedding was fun and he was again amazing and he also goes above and beyond to make sure your day is special and that everything goes as planned. He was basically our wedding coordinator as well. I would recommend him to anyone, you will love him. read more

Dj mike is absolutely the best at what he does. He dj'd our wedding and completely exceded our expectation. He went above and beyond his contracted service. On top of that his price was more than fair for the excellent service he gives. He made our wedding better than expected. Hes punctual and good at communication. I would def. Recommend him for any dj occasion. Thanx again neighbor! read more

Where do I begin? Michael was the highlight of my wedding planning. He is more than a DJ, he also becomes an extension of a wedding coordinator. Plus, he was in constant communication with all our vendors. One of the difficult parts of wedding planning is the "what ifs" for the day of and if things don't go according to plan. But with Michael, I felt like knowing he had everything organized and so put together really helped the stress of wedding planning. I was able to trust that he would make sure things are flowing and going smoothly on the day of! Even leading up to the day, he was so helpful, had as many meetings as we needed and answered all of our emails and questions so quickly. He is also great for any advice you might need, with how much experience he has. It's a bit overwhelming going into planning things, but he was so great with giving options and advice. The day went even better than I expected. I received sooo many compliments on the reception - from his music to the way everything flowed, to the fun props he brings! I would recommend Ovation Entertainment to anyone getting married! You will not be disappointed. read more

I can't emphasize enough how wonderful and AMAZING DJ/MC Michael is!!! My husband and I hired Michael for our wedding earlier this month and he is BY FAR our favorite wedding vendor. Michael goes over and beyond for his clients. Before the wedding, Michael met with us for about 5 meetings that lasted about 1-2 hours. In the meetings, we discussed and planned much more than our wedding songs - with Michael's help/experience, we carefully organized and constructed our entire wedding (ceremony, cocktail, and reception). Michael was pretty much like a wedding planner who guided us, gave us numerous fabulous ideas (that we used for our wedding), and really held our hands throughout the wedding planning process. He was a huge relief and help during a stressful process. Throughout the wedding, our guests had a BLAST and continuously complimented us on our choice of DJ/MC. Mothers, fathers, grandparents, aunts, uncles, friends were all pumped up and dancing thanks to our fantastic DJ/MC. My husband and I really feared having a dead/boring wedding (we've been to so many), but our wedding was lively and exciting. During the dance portion of our reception, Michael passed out glow sticks, lighted rings, shiny Michael Jackson gloves, sunglasses, etc. that our guests had tons of fun with. Michael made our reception into a huge PARTY! I still hear from guests who tell us that our wedding was the most fun and best wedding they've been to :) Overall, Michael is professional, fun to work with, and extremely helpful in planning an event. He is experienced and definitely knows what he's doing. If you want an impeccably organized and fun event that your guests will enjoy, I highly recommend DJ/MC Michael. We can't thank him enough for making our wedding so seamless, exciting, and memorable! read more
