Good communication - Matthew was good about getting all the information necessary prior to the event, and went over everything the day before to make sure everything was in place. He exceeded my expectations and would recommend Matthew to anyone dj shopping.

From our initial meeting with Matthew and Christian to the actual event, including rescheduling the wedding, A DJ Connection were very friendly, helpful and professional. Nothing was too much trouble. All the family and guests had a memorable time at the evening reception. Thanks to Matthew, Christian and Rick - you guys are the business!

Matthew,

The Goldens want to thank you for the awesome time our guests had at the wedding reception 10/10/09!!!  Everyone had a fabulous time, much in part to your ability to keep things moving and not letting the party stall.  We have given your name to all who asked and look forward to seeing you again at the Harvester's Fed. C. U. Christmas party.

 
Again, thank you.

Matthew and Christian,

Your services more than exceeded our expectations. Your availability to both email and meet with us prior to our event made for stress-free planning. We also appreciated your willingness to provide suggestions, yet always reminding us that you were happy to do whatever we wanted.

We could not have imagined our wedding reception going any better! We have heard nothing from our friends and family but how much fun they had! We had our doubts about our friends and family participating in the reception fun and were shocked to see our grandparents among many others shaking it on the dance floor.

You guys MC'd one awesome party that is still being talked about weeks later! We would recommend A DJ Connection to anyone and will be calling you with any future DJ needs!

Thanks again!
Andrew and Katie Gibbs

Matthew: 

 
I just wanted to shoot you a note and tell you I REALLY enjoyed our conversation today.  THANK you for no sales job and just being you!  I THOUGHT that I had made the right decision about using your company for the wedding, but now there is now doubt!
 
You have put my mind at ease.  I can enjoy the wedding and know that things will run smoothly.  Its a huge relief.
 
Thanks so much   
 
(PS...I hope you are available May 30th, 2009.....you would be a huge addition to the night!

"In July we hosted our year-end event for our entire sales and operations teams and wanted to express my satisfaction with A DJ Connection who provided music for the evening.

In dealing with A DJ Connection I found them to be professional, timely, and overall, a quality organization.  They are competitively priced, had good equipment and a great selection of music.

I would not hesitate to do business with them in the future."
