Today, I received this AWESOME 5 Star Review from Kayleigh!!

“When I got engaged 2 years ago I knew that I wanted Mike to be our DJ.  After booking the Canfield Casino, he was the second person we got on our wedding team.  Mike completely understood the tone I wanted to take with our wedding.  Since my husband and I were dating for 11 years before our marriage, we wanted a party more than a formal wedding. Mike got that and my husband and I couldn’t be happier.”

“Mike took on the role as not only our DJ but part of our planning team, he even helped us find the photographer!  Throughout the 2 years of planning, Mike checked in and couldn’t wait for our day!  One of the greatest things he did was help us placement of a special song in our family – Journey’s “Don’t Stop Believing.”  He suggested that we have that as our last song and let me say, what a moment that created!  Throughout the whole wedding and even know, I have people coming to me and saying this was the best wedding they have ever been to!  It’s been an amazing process and I owe a lot of it to Mike Garrasi! My advice to the people who are planning their wedding…Hire Mike!”

Mr. & Mrs. Randall & Kayleigh Weigner – Dover, New Hampshire

Thank You Kayleigh & Randall!  YOU ROCK!

Just recently, I received an AMAZING 5 Star Review from Michael, which you can read below!

“Mike Garrasi does an incredible job of offering you and your wedding party as much or as little as you want.  He is always on the ball with what you want on the day, not only in terms of the songs you want played but also the feel and atmosphere you want too.”

“Mike Garrasi strikes an incredible relationship with his bride and groom and is friendly, attentive and puts you at ease on your big day.”

“We organized our wedding from London yet Mike ensured he was always available for questions and made sure he spent the time to get to know us over several Skype meetings, to really get a feel for us as a couple, our families and what we wanted.”

“We barely gave Mike a song list yet through talking to us and listening to what we had to say he picked up on the fact we just wanted our wedding to be fun for all our guests and our dance floor filled.  On the day Mike is great at reading the room and knowing exactly what his audience wanted.”

“We added up-lighting and our monogram to our package months after the initial order with with Mike which added even more wonder to our beautiful day.”

“Mike Garrasi will act as your DJ, your host, your events organizer, your greeter and will be as much or as little as you want him to be.”

Michael & Meagan Smyth – London, England

Thank You Michael & Meagan!  I wish you a “Lifetime of Happiness”!
