Maui09's reviews
DJ Mixter Li contributed to our July 3rd reception being a complete success! We booked him because he came highly recommended and he was the DJ for a couple of weddings that we have attended.
We held a local (250 guests) reception at Dynasty Restaurant in Cupertino after our wedding in Maui. We left the playlist up to him because after our Maui wedding, we didn’t have much time to compile another playlist. Our previous playlist consisted of Hawaiian tunes, which didn’t quite match our formal banquet. So we just gave him a general guideline of slow, romantic music during dinner and the music for dancing was up to his discretion. He's quite experienced and provided helpful suggestions and made sure to ask us what we wanted for our first dance, cake cutting, etc. The music transitioned wonderfully from dinner to dancing.
The coordinator at Dynasty told us we should provide our own sound equipment because their speakers weren’t the best quality. Luckily our DJ had all of the equipment and he arrived super early to set up the speakers and microphones. We didn’t have to worry about anything. The sound quality was perfect.
We loved the way the dancing flowed – from the fun oldies music in the beginning to the latest party/ hip-hop music at the end. He was very flexible with requests from our guests and incorporated those requests into the flow of the music flawlessly. He kept the dance floor full the entire night with everyone of all ages. He did a great job with reading the crowd. When he noticed a bunch of late 20-somethings hovering near the dance floor, he played some late 80s/ early 90s music (i.e. New Kids on the Block) to get them onto the dance floor.
We highly recommend him and he was worth every penny!
Leslie is so fabulous that I don't even know where to begin! She has been our favorite vendor so far. She went through so much to help us get our invitations done on time and everything turned out better than I expected!
For our first set of invitations (she designed two for us), her printer wasn't able to meet my budget (due to the small quantity) so she offered to print them for me and I only had to pay for the cutting and shipping. She spent an entire weekend running around town to get this done for me. When I received it, everything was PERFECT! Our wedding logo on the front of the box was the perfect touch. Our guests raved about the invitations. They LOVED it!
When I needed invitations for our local reception, she was able to whip them out quickly to meet my deadline. She is sooo fast with responding to emails. She also has a full-time job and she answers all of my emails around the clock...even at 2AM. I was totally blown away by her design. She took the same feel as our other invitations, but made it different enough where our guests didn't feel like they got the same invitations twice. It also still fit the reception theme and our style. She's so creative!
I'm very particular and specific about what I want and she totally exceeded my expectations. She asked a lot of questions and came back with an amazing product. We're incredibly grateful for everything she has done for us. Never once did she say "I can do that after I'm done with this other client." She made us feel like we're her ONLY clients. We were super lucky to have her as our wedding invitation designer. Thanks so much, Leslie. You are incredible!
