If you are looking for a DJ, educate yourself. Most DJs play music, and that is about all. An MC (Master of Ceremonies) will keep tabs on your event, monitor the crowd, adjust music, entertainment, and schedules as needed. Mike is BOTH a DJ and MC. I have been to many, many weddings (I'm a wedding photographer) and so often the DJ never even *thinks* to check in with the photographer as events unfold. This can lead to missed photos, or a poorly managed schedule. Any DJ can play good music-that's a no brainer. Can your DJ think on his feet? Can he adjust if something happens? Does your DJ have the wedding party's names CORRECTLY written down, in the correct order for the grand entrance? Is your DJ actually paying attention to what your guests are doing? Does he notice if they are bored with the music? I was at a wedding with Mike when the line for the meal service became so backed up, that the crowd became restless. Mike began engaging the guests with all sorts of games to keep them occupied until the back-up cleared. THAT is the mark of a true professional. In addition, Mike is also a dance instructor, so he's absolutely savvy on the dance floor. Ballroom? He's your guy. Two-step? Yup, he's got that down too. Whatever your theme is, I've seen him do it. 90s popular country? He's done that, too, I've seen (and heard) it. And he is as patriotic as they come---he volunteers his DJ services for many veteran events around the KC metro. For the price, you absolutely can NOT beat the level of service, professionalism, AND experience Mike brings. Don't skimp or settle for your neighbor's high school kid who has an iPod and big speakers. Don't settle for a DJ with flashy soundboards with pretty lights. DEMAND a DJ and MC who will work one on one with you create a custom playlist, and who cares as much about your guest experience as you do.
