I had a great wedding. The worse part about it was the DJ. He was terrible. So the whole process started with my now husband and I having a pre-meeting a few weeks before the wedding about what kind of songs we wanted played. We told the gentlemen please play decades then 2 hours of hip hop dance music towards the end of the night. We also gave him our do not play list. Everything sounded fine. A few days before the wedding, the DJ (who was going to host) called to confirm everything. We explained yet again what we wanted. My husband and I even gave the company a CD of music that we wanted all played during the pre-ceremony.
The day of the wedding he arrived early and set everything up. Great! About an hour before the ceremony (my husband and I were there taking pictures before the ceremony), I saw the DJ and I said, "Can you please play a lot of Michael Jackson music when his decade comes up." He seemed a little rough but responded, "Yea, okay, I got." I was like whatever. He'll do it. A little attitude won't ruin everything. Maybe it was because he was rushed? He did have to ask me questions about something he printed. He said it did not print correctly and wanted to verify everything. Perhaps he should have done that a day before the wedding?
During the wedding HE DID NOT DO WHAT WE ASKED. We asked for him to play decades. NEVER HAPPENED. I wanted music like Frank Sinatra during dinner. OH AND ANOTHER THING! No one noticed that I cut the cake. Everyone was like "When are you going?" I was like "done and done?" At least my photographer was there so I have proof that I cut the cake. Maybe he should have announced it a little louder? Right after dinner he played a song that I didn't like. Being the Bride, I thought I had vote power, right? He coped an attitude and was like, "I can't change it." I was like, "Change it." After a couple exchanges the song was changed. He played only one Michael Jackson song during the whole night.
Then as my husband and I were taking more pictures in the hall later in the night, I heard songs on the do NOT play list. Thank god I wasn't there to make him change another song.... The song choice he makde were okay later in the night, however I pretty much chose the last 6 songs for the night because did not play the music I wanted. I had songs on the MUST play list and only 2 were played an hour before we had to leave. After the honeymoon I was curious to know if the CD we gave the DJ to play before the ceremony ever got played. I was told my multiple people no. I bought songs so they could be played (The company did not have them) and they never were played.
My husband and I wrote a letter explaining how unhappy we were. I mean let's be real. We hired a professional company to go a great job not a mediocre/bad job. Would I be complaining if a paid some college student who did this on the side for $500? No, because I would understand the risk I would be taking. We did not ever hear from An Enchanted Evening. Nothing. No letter, no e-mail, no phone call.
I understand there are multiple people in this company. We had the guy would liked Mickey Mouse. So if you are to choose this company, PLEASE DO NOT CHOOSE HIM.
