Seattle Parties

In all aspects of wedding planning I was most concerned about our music. Even though Sean and Seattle Parties had had infinite other good reviews, it was hard to believe anyone dj could handle the diversity we needed. I think, Sean might truly be a bit of a genius. Check it: We needed the music to link: Folk music, to Persian Pop, to Southern old School, to Seattle alternative, to 80's depeche-mode, Cure and them some Jam Bands at the end for the Groom. So the job of Sean was not a light one....'Hey can you make it comfortable for a bunch of hippies, Southern folks, a whole lot Persians (Persians LOVE TO DANCE) and all my friends who love goth 80's music?! Yes, yes he could. And did. I mean, every fade out and transition was...like...perfect. Let me emphasize, I was MOST concerned about music in all aspects of our wedding, as it was they key to bringing all these cultures together- and I think it is the key to celebration in general. I can honestly say there were ALWAYS people dancing from the 1st dance to long after last call. Oh, and Sean...was an amazing support throughout the process. He came to our rehearsal (!!) stayed nearly an hour later than booked, and brought gorgeous lighting that matched our very specific periwinkle hue, and we didn't even ask for that......truly frickin' incredible. You'd be lucky to book him.

My daughter was married August 24th on the Skansonia. They recommended Seattle Parties for a DJ. Are we glad they did! Sean did the most wonderful job of not just playing the dance music, but of making all the announcements. I can't thank you enough.

Sean was an amazing DJ! He was really easy to talk to from the get-go and didn't mind our indie/eclectic music tastes; he even gave us some other good ideas for songs! The day of the wedding, he helped make the night run smoothly and handled requests with ease. Our friends/family had a blast dancing the night away. I'd highly recommend him for any wedding!

Ben came through for us last minute! Did an excellent job of playing our requests and keeping the dance floor busy!
Thank...

I knew that I was going to use Sean at Seattle Parties way before I got engaged. He was the DJ at a friend's wedding, and as a guest at wedding (or even at a club), the most important thing to me is if the DJ plays what I request. And at my friend's wedding, he played everything I requested. He was great to work with, we met twice with him, and he did a great job of helping us figure out what we wanted. He brought some lights to the reception that fit with our decor and helped light up our slightly dim room.

Seattle Parties matched us with DJ Ben Meadows, and we were completely satisfied. We are pretty finicky music lovers prone to heartfelt rants or raves, and had thought we'd either get one of our friends to DJ and/or we'd put together an iPod playlist. We wanted the music to be a prominent part of the wedding and reception, and as the date approached, we realized what a challenge it was going to be to get guests of all ages and musical tastes to enjoy or at least not hate the music. We thought that perhaps there was something to be said for a professional who has experience doing just that, and so despite our many misgivings, we looked around for the dreaded "wedding DJ". We were very lucky to find Ben, who DJs a range of nightlife events beyond weddings and was familiar with our somewhat eclectic taste. He put together an upbeat and edgy evening of music that ran from the processional to the end of the reception, and he did a great job of reading the room and fine-tuning the music accordingly. The energy of the room was perfect all night and we really credit Ben for setting the tone. We highly recommend DJ Ben Meadows!

We worked with DJ Ben Meadow for our wedding, and couldn't be happier. He was professional, timely, worked with our budget, and provided an amazing dance party for our friends and family. Even more, he is a very talented DJ and we were so lucky to have him. We feel quite sure he will be too famous one day to do weddings, so get him while you can!

We worked with Sean for our wedding. He did a fantastic job playing the songs we wanted and more. He gave us great suggestions of songs for the different events during the wedding. We definitely recommend Seattle Parties as a DJ for you wedding!

DJ Leslie was great to work with! She is full of energy and ideas. She worked with us to make sure our personalities would be reflected in the reception music, and kept our guests dancing all night! She is great at guiding the evening and feeling out the energy of the room to create a personalized experience. We really loved her blend of spunk and professionalism.

Absolutely awesome! Did a great job of mixing the different types of music and even mixed our first dance song for us.

DJ Leslie has been great to work with.Very helpful in planning and showed us a list of a great variety of music.Great DJ service.

DJ Leslie really listened to us and made our wedding reception a dream come true! From the lighting to the the atmosphere she created, it was truly more than what we could have ever dreamed of. Everyone danced all night long!!! Thanks to Leslie, we had the best day of our lives!

Mark Pendergrast from Seattle Parties was our DJ. He was great. He was open to our music requests and did his best to accomodate them. The dance floor was full the whole evening! He was also easy to work with.

Sean was great! He handled everything at our wedding seamlessly and everyone loved the music. I highly recommend Seattle Parties and would use them again.

We were very pleased and happy with there services. The DJ's were great, they did an exceptional job. The dance floor was never empty and everyone had such a great time. Mary who took the pictures throughout the day did such a great job and was able to capture wonderful candid pictures throughout the night

I was able to have the fabulous DJ Leslie do all the music for my wedding and reception. She took our music selections, which were all over the board from rock, rockabilly, 80's and just completely random tunes and got almost every song requested played during the event. She actually helped me Rick Roll my entire wedding reception! And, apparently we were the first to have a Spinal Tap song at our reception. She's just THAT awesome.

Sean also did our videography, in addition to being a really hilarious, fun guy, he does great work. He perfectly meshes music with the images from your wedding. I envy how he does that!

Definite STRONG recommendation for classy and sassy DJ'ing without being hokey in any way.

DJ Leslie at Seattle Parties was everything I could have hoped for in a DJ. She read the crowd perfectly, while including all of our "must hear" songs. The mood and tone of the evening was set perfectly by her music artistry.

Her announcements and MC'ing was perfect.

Highly recommended!

We had the privillage of using Leslie as our DJ and Sean for our Videographer. Both were outstanding!

Sean was an awesome DJ and we were completely happy with his services. Our music tastes are all over the board and not all of it is right for a wedding which must appeal to a broader audience. He was able to take a list of music we like and interpret that to more mainstream music that everyone would be able to appreciate. He was laid back and did not take over the party and make himself the center of attention which I have seen happen with other DJs at other weddings. With his music selections alone, he was able to keep people on the dance floor until 1AM. It was awesome. I highly recommend Sean.

Sean was a perfect fit for us. He has a very well-rounded taste in music that meshed well with our differences and helped us find a good balance. He was also laid back and not one of those crazy, overboard mic monkeys you get with some services. Just a really cool guy.

I have worked with Sean & Leslie of Seattle Parties many times over the past few years, and they are amazing! I don't have to worry about any of the music, emcee or lighting aspects when they are on board. In fact, Leslie just did my own vow renewal and totally rocked it! Everybody from age 5-65 was on the dance floor having the best time ever!!

I worked with DJ Leslie back in August of this year; one thing I noticed right away was her friendly and personable attitude. She really knows how to read the crowd and is not afraid change the music to keep things lively. It was refreshing to see someone really care about doing a great job. I can’t wait to work with DJ Leslie again!
