Pete was fantastic!!! We couldn’t have asked for a better DJ. He was great with communication, answered all 7 million bride questions I had, and delivered beyond our expectations. He showed up extra early to set up and confirm that he could pronounce everyone’s names for introductions, which is always a bonus. He transitioned all three songs I requested for the ceremony smoothly and perfectly. He also has a service you can get where he can record your ceremony/vows for you. This was one of the highlights as the ceremony was such a quick blur for us, that being able to re-listen to our vows over and over for the rest of our lives is something we will always cherish. He worked with my wedding coordinator on the little things so that I didn’t have to worry about them. AND i had a slideshow with my dad for our father/daughter dance, and he got it working from my MAC to the venue’s projector; thank god he has a production background or we may not have been able to have the slideshow at the reception, so that was an extra bonus. During the dance party, he played the right songs and got more than 75% of our wedding guests on the dance floor(even the people over 60 were out there!!) and he took all my friends ridiculous song requests and had the majority of the songs! So that was proof that his library is very large! Overall, we were more than happy with Pete. Prompt, professional, and very personable! We would definitely recommend Pete to a friend, and we will use him again if we ever need a DJ for a party. Thank you Pete for making our wedding a day we’ll never forget! Ashlie & Brad

It was a pleasure working with Pete for our wedding. What initially attracted my attention was his professional audio background. Having played in a band for years, I knew he was a skilled audio engineer who knew how to set up and get the most out of his equipment. Once we started working with Pete, I found him to be professional, courteous, and extremely responsive and accommodating of our requests. We worked with a couple crappy vendors that put a huge damper on our wedding day, but Pete showed up on time, with the right equipment, and contributed great music to a beautiful evening. He knew when to play what we requested and when to feel out the audience. He performed light MC duties that helped us keep the night going smoothly. We received so many compliments on the evening’s music. If I’m ever in the need of a DJ or Sound Engineer in Massachusetts, I’m calling Pete! 5 Stars all around!

I don’t even know where to start in raving about Pete’s services! I contacted Pete from San Francisco to inquire about using his services for our Western Mass wedding and knew right away that he was the right DJ for us. While I live in the city now, I’m a country girl at heart, and Pete delivered that special kind of small-town service — he worked with us in every way, taking the stress out of the long distance planning. He guided us without steering us into his own comfort zone; contacted us when necessary without being overbearing; picked up the ball when WE dropped it — hello, Father/Daughter dance download moments before the ceremony; capable and knowledgeable as well as perfectly humble — and was totally chill and a pleasure to work with! We used Pete for our ceremony music and wedding receptions(he took a break during cocktail hour and we played an ipod). Pete played a «pre-ceremony playlist» created by us for when guests arrived at the ceremony site as well as mic-ing our ceremony itself. His set up is great — minimal but fully adequate. The music was played at the perfect level and I felt our guests could hear everything without feeling like we were broadcasting to the entire neighborhood. For the reception music, Pete worked with us extensively by phone and email in the months leading up to the wedding, requesting music likes and dislikes to help him in his music selection and was open and agreeable when we went a little nuts and submitted rather extensive lists! We also supplied him with a a pre-approved(by us) guest«request list» to supplement his choices, which he used perfectly over the course of the night. I was initially worried about not micro-managing our reception music, because it was probably the most important wedding item for us, but by the time the wedding day rolled around we had 110% confidence in Pete’s discretion. ANDWEWERENOTDISAPPOINTED! Pete played great music during dinner and easily picked up on the spirit of the night when our guests hit the dance floor earlier than anticipated! Because of Pete’s understanding of our likes and dislikes and awesome selections, the dance floor was bumping from beginning to end — he even played a couple«encores» when the«One More Song!» chanting came! We got SOMANY compliments about the music, from every demographic of guest you could imagine! Pete emceed when necessary and kept things flowing nicely(we had no planner, so this was key… especially as our caterer had promised to partner with Pete and I and totally failed on that point!). Pete approached me about upcoming moments(dances, cake cutting) without stressing me out one bit and also made a couple announcements when asked. LASTLY, Pete continued to be awesome even after our event was over! He mentioned he could give us a recording of our ceremony for a small fee. The recording didn’t include the processional music so Pete edited it in for us, staying up late that very night to get it done asap — even though we didn’t request a rush! Pete really cares about his customers and it shows in everything he does. I really cannot say enough good things about Pete — in the aftermath of planning a wedding I now know just how important hiring the right vendors is… there’s the good, the bad, the ugly and then there’s Pete: The Best. If you need a competent, friendly, professional DJ, please save yourself the headache of exhaustive searching and just hire Pete. Not only is he worth(the very fair) cost, he actually will add to the enjoyment of your event. Thanks Pete!
